Luke 3
1 Now, in the fifteenth year of the supremacy of Tiberius Caesar, —Pontius Pilate being governor of Judaea, and Herod being tetrarch of Galilee, and, Philip his brother, tetrarch of Ituraea and the country of Trachonitis, and Lysanius, tetrarch of Abylene, —
Nambeambe katika mwaka wa komi na tano na utawala wa kaisari Tiberia, wakati Pontio Pilato abile gavana wa uyahudi, Herode abile nkolo wa nkoa wa Galilaya, na Filipo nnuna wake abile nkolo wa nkoa wa Iturea na Trakoniti, na Lisania abile nkolo wa nkoa wa Abilene.
2 in the High-priesthood of Annas and Caiaphas, came a word of God unto John the son, of Zechariah, in rue desert;
Na wakati wa kuhani nkolo wa Anasi na Kyafa, Neno lya Nnongo lamuichile Yohana mwana wa Zakaria, mulijangwa.
3 and he came into all the country about the Jordan, proclaiming an immersion of repentance into remission of sins:
Atisafiri katika mikoa yoti atizunguka libende Yordani, akihubiri ubatizo wa toba kwaajili ya msamaha wa sambi.
4 as it is written in the book of the discourses of Isaiah the prophet: A voice of one crying aloud! In the desert, prepare ye the way of the Lord, straight, be making his paths;
Kati yaiandikilwe katika kitabu cha maneno ga Isaya nabii, “lilobe lya mundu abili kumwitu, 'Mutengeneze tayari ndela ya Ngwana, mugatengeneze mapito gake yangyookile.
5 Every chasm, shall be filled up, and, every mountain and hill, be made low; and the, crooked, places shall become, straight, and the, rugged, places, smooth ways; —
Kila libende litwelia, kila kitombe nakitombe vipala sawazishwa, ndela yaipindile ipala nyookile, na ndela yabii na mashimo yapala lainishilwe.
6 And all flesh shall see the salvation of God.
Bandu boti bapala kuubona wokovu wa Nnongo.”
7 He was saying, therefore, unto the multitudes who were going forth to be immersed by him—Broods of vipers! who suggested to you, to flee from the coming wrath?
Yohana atikuwabakiya makutano makolo ya bandu bamwichite bapate kubatizwa na ywembe, “Mwenga ubeleko wa mng'ambo bene sumu, nyai ywaboonile kaibutuka ghadhabu yaicha?
8 Bring forth, therefore, fruits worthy of repentance, and do not begin to be saying within yourselves, As our father, we have, Abraham; for, I say unto you—God is able, out of these stones, to raise up children unto Abraham.
Mubeleke matunda yagaendana na toba, na kana mutumbwe baya nkati yinu, “Tubile nakwe Ibrahimu ambae nga tate bitu; kwa sababu mndakuwabakiya kwamba, Nnongo andawecha kumkakatuliya Ibrahimu bana hata bokana maliwe haga.
9 And, already, even the axe, unto the root of the trees is being laid; every tree, therefore, not bringing forth [good] fruit, is to be hewn down, and, into fire, to be cast.
Tayari libao labekitwe kwenye ndandai ya mkongo, nga nyoo, kila mkongo waulebeka kwaa matunda mema, wapalakatwa ni kutinya mu'mwoto.
10 And the multitude began to question him saying—What, then, shall we do?
Boka po bandu katika makutano atikolya akibaya, “nambeambe tupala tupange kitiwi?”
11 And, answering, he said unto them—He that hath two tunics, let him share with him that hath none, and, he that hath food, in like manner, let him be doing.
Atijibu na kuwabakiya, “kati mundu abii na kanzu ibele apalikwa apiye nganzu imo kwa ywenge ambaye ntopo kabisa, na ambaye abi na chakulya na apange nyonyoo.”
12 And there came, even tax-collectors, to be immersed; and they said unto him—Teacher! what, shall we, do?
Boka po baadhi ya batoza ushuru baichile pia batizwa, na batikummakia, “mwalimu, tupalikwa panga namani?
13 And, he, said unto them, Nothing more than what is appointed you, exact ye.
Atikuabakiya, “Kana mkumbe mbange zaidi kuliko chapalikwa kumba.”
14 Then were questioning him, soldiers also, saying—What shall, even we, do? And he said unto them—Molest ye, no one, neither accuse falsely; and be content with your supplies.
Baadhi ya maaskari batikumlokiya bakibaya, “Na twenga je? tupalikwa tupange namani? Atikuabakiya, “Kna mtole mbanje kwa mundu yoyote kwa ngupu, na kana mumuhukumu mundu yoyoti kwa ubocho. mulidhike na mishahara yinu”
15 Now, as the people were in expectation, and all were deliberating in their hearts, concerning John, —whether by any means, he, might be, the Christ,
Nambeambe, kwa kuwa bandu babile na shauku ya kumlenda Kristo ywapala icha, kila yumo abile aandawacha mu'mwoyo wake husu Yohana kati ywembe ndiye Kristo.
16 John answered, saying unto all—I, indeed, in water, am immersing you, but he that is mightier than I, cometh, the thong of whose sandals I am not worthy to unloose, —he, will immerse you in Holy Spirit and fire:
Yohana akayangwa na kubabakiya, “Nenga nakuwabatiza mwenga kea mache, lakini kubii ni yumo ywaicha ambaye abi na ngupy kuliko nee, na nistahili kwaa hata taba kamba yee ilatu yake. Apakwa batiza mwenga kwa Roho Mpeletau na kwa mwoto.
17 whose fan is in his hand, to clear out his threshing-floor, and to gather the wheat into his granary; but, the chaff, will he burn up with fire unquenchable.
Pepeto lyake libi muluboko lwake ili kusafisha kunanoga uwanda wake wake wa pepetya ngano na kuikumba ngano muligolo lyake. Lakini, apala kuyateketeza maakapi kwa mwoto uwecha kwa imika.
18 So then indeed, as to many things and various, he exhorted, and continued telling his glad-message unto the people.
Kwa maono genge ganambone, atihubiri habari njema kwa bandu.
19 But, Herod the tetrarch, being reproved by him concerning Herodias, the wife of his brother, and concerning all the wicked things Herod had done,
Yohana atikunkemeya pia Herode nkolo wa nkoa wa kwa kum'tola Herodia, nnyumbowe na nnuna wake ni kwa malau yenge ganambone ambayo Herode ayapangite.
20 added this also unto all, —he locked up John in prison.
Lakini baada yake Herode apangite lilau lyenge libaya muno, Amtabike Yohana muligereza.
21 Now it came to pass, when one and all the people were immersed, Jesus also, having been immersed, and being at prayer, heaven was opened;
Boka po yatipita kwamba, muda bandu bote babile bakibatizwa ni Yohana, na ywembe Yesu atibatizwa pia. muda abile akiloba, maunde yatiyogoka.
22 and the Holy Spirit descended, in bodily appearance, as a dove, upon him, —and, a voice out of heaven, came—Thou, art my Son, the Beloved, in thee, I delight.
Roho mpeletau atiiuluka mnani yake kwa mfani wa kiwili kati ngunda, muda wowo lilobe latiicha boka kumaunde yatibaya, “Wenga nga mwana wango wanikupendile. Napendezwile muno ni wenga.”
23 And, Jesus himself, was, when he began, about thirty years of age, being the son, as was supposed—of Joseph, of Heli:
Nambeambe Yesu mwene, atumbwike pundisha, abile ni umri wapata miaka thelathini. Abile ni mwana (kati ya idhanilwe) ywa Tusufu, mwana wa Eli,
