Luke 3
1 NOW in the fifteenth year of the reign of Tiberius Cæsar, Pontius Pilate being governor of Judæa, and Herod being tetrarch of Galilee, and his brother Philip tetrarch of Ituræa and of the region of Trachonitis, and Lysanias the tetrarch of Abilene,
A w piętnastym roku panowania cesarza Tyberiusza, gdy Poncjusz Piłat był namiestnikiem Judei, Herod tetrarchą Galilei, jego brat Filip tetrarchą Iturei i ziemi Trachonu, a Lizaniasz tetrarchą Abileny;
2 Annas and Caiaphas being the high priests, the word of God came unto John the son of Zacharias in the wilderness.
Za najwyższych kapłanów Annasza i Kajfasza doszło słowo Boże do Jana, syna Zachariasza, na pustyni.
3 And he came into all the country about Jordan, preaching the baptism of repentance for the remission of sins;
I obchodził całą okolicę nad Jordanem, głosząc chrzest pokuty na przebaczenie grzechów.
4 As it is written in the book of the words of Esaias the prophet, saying, The voice of one crying in the wilderness, Prepare ye the way of the Lord, make his paths straight.
Jak jest napisane w księdze słów proroka Izajasza: Głos wołającego na pustyni: Przygotujcie drogę Pana, prostujcie jego ścieżki.
5 Every valley shall be filled, and every mountain and hill shall be brought low; and the crooked shall be made straight, and the rough ways shall be made smooth;
Każda dolina będzie wypełniona, a każda góra i pagórek będą obniżone; to, co krzywe, wyprostuje się, a wyboiste drogi będą gładkie.
6 And all flesh shall see the salvation of God.
I ujrzy wszelkie ciało zbawienie Boże.
7 Then said he to the multitude that came forth to be baptized of him, O generation of vipers, who hath warned you to flee from the wrath to come?
Mówił więc do tłumów, które przychodziły, aby ich ochrzcił: Plemię żmijowe, któż was ostrzegł, żebyście uciekali przed przyszłym gniewem?
8 Bring forth therefore fruits worthy of repentance, and begin not to say within yourselves, We have Abraham to our father: for I say unto you, That God is able of these stones to raise up children unto Abraham.
Wydajcie więc owoce godne pokuty i nie zaczynajcie sobie wmawiać: Naszym ojcem jest Abraham. Mówię wam bowiem, że Bóg i z tych kamieni może wzbudzić dzieci Abrahamowi.
9 And now also the axe is laid unto the root of the trees: every tree therefore which bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire.
A już siekiera do korzenia drzew jest przyłożona. Każde drzewo, które nie wydaje dobrego owocu, zostaje wycięte i wrzucone w ogień.
10 And the people asked him, saying, What shall we do then?
I pytali go ludzie: Cóż więc mamy czynić?
11 He answereth and saith unto them, He that hath two coats, let him impart to him that hath none; and he that hath meat, let him do likewise.
A on im odpowiedział: Kto ma dwie szaty, niech da temu, który nie ma, a kto ma pożywienie, niech uczyni tak samo.
12 Then came also publicans to be baptized, and said unto him, Master, what shall we do?
Przyszli też celnicy, aby się ochrzcić, i pytali go: Nauczycielu, cóż mamy czynić?
13 And he said unto them, Exact no more than that which is appointed you.
A on im odpowiedział: Nie pobierajcie nic więcej ponad to, co wam wyznaczono.
14 And the soldiers likewise demanded of him, saying, And what shall we do? And he said unto them, Do violence to no man, neither accuse any falsely; and be content with your wages.
Pytali go też żołnierze: A my co mamy czynić? I odpowiedział im: Wobec nikogo nie używajcie przemocy, [nikogo] fałszywie nie oskarżajcie i poprzestawajcie na waszym żołdzie.
15 And as the people were in expectation, and all men mused in their hearts of John, whether he were the Christ, or not;
A gdy ludzie trwali w oczekiwaniu i wszyscy myśleli w swych sercach o Janie, czy może on nie jest Chrystusem;
16 John answered, saying unto them all, I indeed baptize you with water; but one mightier than I cometh, the latchet of whose shoes I am not worthy to unloose: he shall baptize you with the Holy Ghost and with fire:
Odpowiedział Jan wszystkim: Ja was chrzczę wodą, lecz idzie mocniejszy ode mnie, któremu nie jestem godny rozwiązać rzemyka u jego sandałów. On będzie was chrzcił Duchem Świętym i ogniem.
17 Whose fan is in his hand, and he will throughly purge his floor, and will gather the wheat into his garner; but the chaff he will burn with fire unquenchable.
[Ma] on swoje wiejadło w ręku i wyczyści swoje klepisko, i zgromadzi pszenicę do swego spichlerza, ale plewy spali w ogniu nieugaszonym.
18 And many other things in his exhortation preached he unto the people.
A tak głosząc, dawał ludziom jeszcze wiele innych napomnień.
19 But Herod the tetrarch, being reproved by him for Herodias his brother Philip’s wife, and for all the evils which Herod had done,
Lecz tetrarcha Herod, strofowany przez niego z powodu Herodiady, żony swego brata Filipa, i z powodu wszystkich złych czynów, których się dopuścił;
20 Added yet this above all, that he shut up John in prison.
Dodał do wszystkiego i to, że wtrącił Jana do więzienia.
21 Now when all the people were baptized, it came to pass, that Jesus also being baptized, and praying, the heaven was opened,
I stało się tak, że kiedy wszyscy ludzie byli ochrzczeni, również Jezus został ochrzczony, a gdy się modlił, otworzyło się niebo;
22 And the Holy Ghost descended in a bodily shape like a dove upon him, and a voice came from heaven, which said, Thou art my beloved Son; in thee I am well pleased.
I zstąpił [na niego] Duch Święty w kształcie cielesnym jak gołębica, a z nieba rozległ się głos: Ty jesteś moim umiłowanym Synem, w tobie mam upodobanie.
