Luke 3
1 Now in the fifteenth year of the reign of Tiberius Caesar, Pontius Pilate being governor of Judaea, and Herod tetrarch of Galilee, and his brother Philip tetrarch of Ituraea and of the region of Trachonitis, and Lysanias tetrarch of Abilene,
Ngayon, sa ika-labinlimang taon na paghahari ni Tiberio Cesar, habang si Poncio Pilato ay gobernador sa Judea, at si Herodes ang tetrarka sa Galilea, at ang kaniyang kapatid na si Felipe ang tetrarka sa rehiyon ng Iturea at Traconite, at si Lisanias ang tetrarka sa Abilinia,
2 when Annas and Caiaphas were high-priests, the word of God came to John, the son of Zachariah, in the wilderness.
at sa panahon na sina Anas at Caifas ang pinakapunong pari, dumating ang salita ng Diyos ay kay Juan na anak ni Zacarias, sa ilang.
3 And he came into all the country about the Jordan, preaching the baptism of repentance for the remission of sins;
Siya ay naglakbay sa buong rehiyon sa palibot ng ilog Jordan, nangangaral ng bautismo ng pagsisisi para sa kapatawaran ng mga kasalanan.
4 as it is written in the book of the words of Isaiah the prophet: “The voice of one crying in the wilderness, Prepare the way of the Lord, make straight his paths!
Gaya ito ng nasusulat sa libro ng mga salita ni propeta Isaias, “Ang tinig ng isang sumisigaw sa ilang, 'Ihanda ang daraanan ng Panginoon, gawing tuwid ang kaniyang landas.
5 Every valley shall be filled, and every mountain and hill shall be made low; and the crooked places shall be made straight, and the rough ways smooth;
Ang bawat lambak ay mapupunan, ang bawat bundok at burol ay gagawing patag, ang mga likong daan ay magiging tuwid, at ang mga daang baku-bako ay gagawing maayos.
6 and all flesh shall see the salvation of God.”
Ang lahat ng tao ay makikita ang pagliligtas ng Diyos.”
7 He said therefore to the multitudes that came forth to be baptized by him, Brood of vipers, who warned you to flee from the coming wrath?
Kaya sinabi ni Juan sa napakaraming bilang ng tao na dumarating upang magpabautismo sa kaniya, “Kayo na mga anak ng mga makamandag na ahas, sino ang nagbabala sa inyo na tumakas sa poot na paparating?”
8 Bring forth therefore fruits worthy of repentance; and begin not to say within yourselves, We have Abraham for our father; for I say to you, that God is able out of these stones to raise up children to Abraham.
Mamunga kayo ng karapat-dapat sa pagsisisi, at huwag ninyong simulan na sabihin sa inyong mga sarili, 'Mayroon tayong Abraham bilang ama natin,' dahil sinasabi ko sa inyo na ang Diyos ay may kakayahang lumikha ng mga anak para kay Abraham kahit pa mula sa mga batong ito.
9 And already also is the axe lying at the root of the trees; every tree therefore that beareth not good fruit is to be cut down, and cast into the fire.
Ang palakol ay nailagay na sa ugat ng mga puno. Kaya ang bawat puno na hindi namumunga nang mabuti ay puputulin at itatapon sa apoy.”
10 And the multitudes asked him, saying, What then must we do?
At ang maraming tao ay nagtanong sa kaniya, nagsasabi “Ano ang dapat naming gawin?”
11 He answered and said to them, He that hath two coats, let him impart to him that hath none; and he that hath food, let him do likewise.
Siya ay sumagot at sinabi sa kanila, “Kung ang isang tao ay may dalawang tunika, dapat niyang ibigay ang isa sa sinumang wala nito at sinuman ang may pagkain ay ganoon din ang dapat gawin.”
12 And there came also publicans to be baptized, and said to him, Teacher, what must we do?
At may ilang mga maniningil ng buwis ang dumating upang mabautismuhan, at sinabi nila sa kaniya, “Guro, ano ang dapat naming gawin?”
13 And he said to them, Exact no more than hath been ordered you.
Sinabi niya sa kanila, “Huwag kayong maningil nang higit sa dapat ninyong sinisingil.”
14 And soldiers also asked him, saying, And what must we do? And he said to them, Do violence to no one, accuse no one falsely, and be content with your wages.
May ilang mga kawal rin ang nagtanong sa kaniya, nagsasabi, “At paano naman kami? Ano ang dapat naming gawin?” Sinabi niya sa kanila. “Huwag kayong kumuha ng salapi kanino man nang sapilitan, at huwag ninyong paratangan ang sinuman ng hindi totoo. Masiyahan kayo sa inyong mga sahod.”
15 And while the people were in expectation, and all were considering in their hearts concerning John, whether he were the Christ,
Ngayon, habang ang mga tao ay sabik na naghihintay na dumating si Cristo, nagtataka ang bawat isa sa kanilang mga puso kung si Juan mismo ang Cristo.
16 John answered and said to them all, I indeed baptize you with water; but he who is mightier than I is coming, the latchet of whose sandals I am not worthy to loose; he will baptize you in the Holy Spirit and in fire.
Sinagot sila ni Juan na nagsabi sa kanilang lahat, “Para sa akin, binabautismuhan ko kayo ng tubig, ngunit may isang paparating na mas higit na makapangyarihan kaysa sa akin, at hindi ako karapat-dapat na magkalag man lang ng tali ng kaniyang mgapnyapaks. Siya ang magbabautismo sa inyo ng Banal na Espiritu at ng apoy.
17 His winnowing-shovel is in his hand to thoroughly cleanse his threshing-floor, and gather the wheat into his garner; but the chaff he will burn up with unquenchable fire.
Ang kaniyang kalaykay ay hawak niya sa kaniyang kamay upang linisin nang mabuti ang kaniyang giikan at upang tipunin ang trigo sa kaniyang kamalig. Ngunit susunugin niya ang dayami sa apoy na hindi mamamatay kailanman.”
18 And giving many other exhortations he published the glad tidings to the people.
Sa pamamagitan ng iba pang madaming panghihikayat, ipinangaral niya ang magandang balita sa mga tao.
19 But Herod the tetrarch, being reproved by him on account of Herodias the wife of his brother, and on account of all the evil deeds which Herod had done,
Sinaway din ni Juan si Herodes na tetrarka, dahil pinakasalan niya ang asawa ng kaniyang kapatid na lalaki, na si Herodias, at sa lahat ng iba pang kasamaan na ginawa ni Herodes.
20 added this also to them all, that he shut up John in prison.
Ngunit gumawa pa ng napakasamang bagay si Herodes. Ipinakulong niya sa bilangguan si Juan.
21 And it came to pass, when all the people had been baptized, and Jesus also had been baptized, and was praying, that the heaven was opened,
At nangyari ngang habang ang lahat ng tao ay binabautismuhan, si Jesus ay nabautismuhan din. Habang siya ay nananalangin, ang kalangitan ay bumukas.
22 and the Holy Spirit descended upon him in a bodily shape as a dove; and a voice came from heaven: “Thou art my beloved Son; with thee I am well pleased.”
Ang Banal na Espiritu ay bumaba sa kaniya na may anyo na gaya ng kalapati, habang may isang tinig ang nanggaling sa langit, “Ikaw ang aking minamahal na Anak. Lubos akong nalulugod sa Iyo.”
