Luke 3
1 Now in the fifteenth year of the reign of Tiberius Caesar, Pontius Pilate being governor of Judea, and Herod being tetrarch of Galilee, and his brother Philip tetrarch of the region of Ituraea and Trachonitis, and Lysanias tetrarch of Abilene,
Xiibaros geetettiza qeesarey kawottida tammanne ichachchantho laythan Phanxoossa Philaxosa gizays Yuda biitta haariza wode, Herdossay Galila biitta haariza wode, iza ishay piliphoossay, Ixuriyasanne Xirakkondose biitta haariza wode, Lisannyossay Sabilane biitta haariza wode,
2 in the high priesthood of Annas and Caiaphas, the word of God came to John, the son of Zechariah, in the wilderness.
Haanaynne Qayafay waana qeeseta gidida wode Xoossa qaalay baazo biittan diza Zakarassa na Yanisakko yides.
3 He came into all the region around the Jordan, preaching a baptism of repentance for forgiveness of sins.
Yaanisay Yordanose shoore achchan diza dereta wurson “inte nagara atto gaanas nagarappe simmidi xamaqqetite” gidi yoottides.
4 As it is written in the scroll of the words of Isaiah the prophet, "The voice of one crying in the wilderness, 'Prepare the way of the Lord. Make his roads straight.
Hessika qasse nabe Isayaasay bazon hizgidi wassiza asa koshinch “Godas oge giigissite baassidikka lo7ethite.
5 Every valley will be filled, and every mountain and hill will be made low, and the crooked will be made straight, and the rough ways smooth.
Shoobba biittay wuri kumana guutha zumayne gita zumay wuri ziq gaana geella ogey sitta moorettida ogey lo7o gidana.
6 And all humanity will see the salvation of God.'"
Asa zerethi wuri ashshizza Xoossa woliqqa beyana giidi bazon wassiza asa qaala giireth” giidi ba maxaafan xaafida mala.
7 He said therefore to the crowds who went out to be baptized by him, "You offspring of vipers, who warned you to flee from the wrath to come?
Yanisaykka iza kushen xamaqqistana yiza asas “inteno ha shoosha nayto yaana diza Xoossa hanqqofe haakkana mala ooni intena zoridee?
8 Bring forth therefore fruits worthy of repentance, and do not begin to say among yourselves, 'We have Abraham for our father;' for I tell you that God is able to raise up children to Abraham from these stones.
Inte naggara oothoppe simmidayssa erisiza ootho oothite (Abramey nu aaway nuus dees) gusi aggitte gides. Xoossi bees giikko ha shuchchatappe Abrames na oothi denthaanas dandda7izayssa erite”
9 Even now the axe also lies at the root of the trees. Every tree therefore that does not bring forth good fruit is cut down, and thrown into the fire."
Beyxxey mith qanxanas miththa xaphon dees. Lo7o ayfe ayfontta iita mithi wuri qanxettidi taman yegistana.
10 The crowds asked him, "What then must we do?"
Asaykka “histtini ay oothooni” giidi oychchides.
11 He answered them, "He who has two coats, let him give to him who has none. He who has food, let him do likewise."
Yanisaykka asas “nam77u mayoy diza issi mayoy bayndda asas imo qassekka qumay dizaykka shaakkidi immo” gides.
12 Tax collectors also came to be baptized, and they said to him, "Teacher, what must we do?"
Qaraxa shiishizayttikka xamaqqistanaas yiidi “tamarisizayso nu ay oothino?” gida.
13 He said to them, "Collect no more than that which is appointed to you."
Izikka “inte azazettidayssafe bollara qaraxa shiishoppite” gides.
14 Soldiers also asked him, saying, "What about us? What must we do?" He said to them, "Extort from no one by violence, neither accuse anyone wrongfully. Be content with your wages."
Wotadarattikka “nuni qasse ay oothino” giidi oychchida. izikka “oona miishshakka gidin dafi ekkofite qassekka oonane wordon mootopite inte damozay intes giddana” gides.
15 As the people were in expectation, and all were wondering in their hearts concerning John, whether perhaps he was the Messiah,
Asay Yanisa beyidi haysi kirstossa? giidi ba wozinan sidhides.
16 John answered them all, "I indeed baptize you with water, but he comes who is mightier than I, the strap of whose sandals I am not worthy to loosen. He will baptize you with the Holy Spirit and with fire,
Yanisaykka wursos “tani intena haathan xamaqays gido attin ta iza caamma birshaanas besoontta tappe aadhdhizaddey yaana. izi intena Xillo Ayaananne taman xamaqqana.
17 whose winnowing fork is in his hand, to clear his threshing floor, and to gather the wheat into his barn; but he will burn up the chaff with unquenchable fire."
Kath suragiza layiday iza kushen dees. Balezza kumetha geeshshanna gistteza qasse di7en qollana gafezakka to7onta taman xuugana” gides.
18 Then with many other exhortations he preached good news to the people,
Yanissay asa hara dumma dumma zore qaalara minnithethi zorishe mishrachcho qaala yoottides.
19 but Herod the tetrarch, being reproved by him for Herodias, his brother's wife, and for all the evil things which Herod had done,
Gido attin Galila biitta haariza Herdoosay ba isha machcho Herooddiyaado ekkida gishine hara daro iita oothida gish Yanisay iza hanqqida gish
20 added this also to them all, that he shut up John in prison.
kase mooro bolla hara gujjidi Herdossay Yaanisa woyne keeththan yegides.
21 Now it happened, when all the people were baptized, Jesus also had been baptized, and was praying. The sky was opened,
Asay xamaqqettidappe guyyen Yesussaykka xamaqqetides, izi woosishin saloy doyettides.
22 and the Holy Spirit descended in a bodily form as a dove on him; and a voice came out of the sky, saying "You are my beloved Son. In you I am well pleased."
Xillo Ayyaanaykka wole milattida iza bolla wodhides. “saloppe ta dosiza nay nena nenan tani ufa7istays” giza qaalay yides.
23 When he began, Jesus was about thirty years old, being the son, as was supposed, of Joseph, of Eli,
