Luke 3
1 In the fiftenthe yeare of the raygne of Tiberius the Emperoure Pontius Pylate beinge leftenaut of Iurie and Herode beinge Tetrach of Galile and his brother Philip Tetrach in Iturea and in the region of Traconites and Lysanias the Tetrach of Abyline
Men i Kejser Tiberius's femtende Regeringsaar, da Pontius Pilatus var Landshøvding i Judæa, og Herodes var Fjerdingsfyrste i Galilæa, og hans Broder Filip var Fjerdingsfyrste i Ituræa og Trakonitis's Land og Lysanias Fjerdingsfyrste i Abilene,
2 when Anna and Cayphas were the hye prestes: the worde of God came vnto Iohn ye sonne of zacharias in the wildernes.
medens Annas og Kajfas vare Ypperstepræster, kom Guds Ord til Johannes, Sakarias's Søn, i Ørkenen.
3 And he came in to all the coostes aboute Iordan preachynge the baptyme of repentaunce for the remission of synnes
Og han gik ud i hele Omegnen om Jordan og prædikede Omvendelses-Daab til Syndernes Forladelse,
4 at it is written in the boke of the sayinges of Esaias ye Prophet which sayeth: The voyce of a cryar in wyldernes prepare the waye of the Lorde make hys pathes strayght.
som der er skrevet i Profeten Esajas's Talers Bog: „Der er en Røst af en, som raaber i Ørkenen: Bereder Herrens Vej, gører hans Stier jævne;
5 Every valley shalbe fylled and every moutayne and hyll shalbe brought lowe. And crocked thinges shalbe made streight: and the rough wayes shalbe made smoth:
hver Dal skal opfyldes, og hvert Bjerg og Høj skal nedtrykkes, og det krumme skal gøres lige, og de ujævne Veje skulle gøres jævne;
6 and all flesshe shall se the saveour sent of God.
og alt Kød skal se Guds Frelse.‟
7 Then sayde he to the people that were come to be baptysed of him: O generacion of vipers who hath taught you to flye from the wrath to come?
Han sagde altsaa til de Skarer, som gik ud for at døbes af ham: „I Øgleunger! hvem har lært eder at fly fra den kommende Vrede?
8 Bringe forth due frutes of repentaunce and begynne not to saye in youre selves we have Abraham to oure father. For I saye vnto you: God is able of these stones to reyse vp chyldren vnto Abraham.
Bærer da Frugter, som ere Omvendelsen værdige, og begynder ikke at sige ved eder selv: Vi have Abraham til Fader; thi jeg siger eder, at Gud kan opvække Abraham Børn af disse Stene.
9 Now also ys the axe leyd vnto the rote of the trees: so yt every tree which bringeth not forth good frute shalbe hewe doune and caste in to ye fyre.
Men Øksen ligger ogsaa allerede ved Roden af Træerne; saa bliver da hvert Træ, som ikke bærer god Frugt, omhugget og kastet i Ilden.‟
10 And the people axed him sayinge: What shall we do then?
Og Skarerne spurgte ham og sagde: „Hvad skulle vi da gøre?‟
11 He answered and sayde vnto them: He that hath two coottes let him parte with him that hath none: and he that hath meate let him do lyke wyse.
Men han svarede og sagde til dem: „Den, som har to Kjortler, dele med den, som ingen har; og den, som har Mad, gøre ligesaa!‟
12 Then came ther Publicans to be baptised and sayde vnto him: Master what shall we do?
Men ogsaa Toldere kom for at døbes, og de sagde til ham: „Mester! hvad skulle vi gøre?‟
13 And he sayde vnto the: requyre no more then that which ys appoynted vnto you.
Men han sagde til dem: „Kræver intet ud over, hvad eder er forordnet.‟
14 The soudyoures lyke wyse demaunded of hym sayinge: and what shall we do? And he sayde to them: Do violence to noo ma: nether trouble eny man wrongfully: but be content with youre wages.
Men ogsaa Krigsfolk spurgte ham og sagde: „Hvad skulle vi da gøre?‟ Og han sagde til dem: „Øver ikke Vold imod nogen, bruger ikke Underfundighed imod nogen, og lader eder nøje med eders Sold!‟
15 As the people were in a doute and all men disputed in their hertes of Iohn whether he were very Christ:
Men da Folket var i Forventning, og alle tænkte i deres Hjerter om Johannes, om ikke han skulde være Kristus,
16 Ihon answered and sayde to them all: I baptyse you wt water but a stronger then I cometh after me whose shue latchet I am not worthy to vnlouse: he will baptise you with the holy goost and with fyre:
da svarede Johannes og sagde til alle: „Jeg døber eder med Vand; men den kommer, som er stærkere end jeg, og hvis Skotvinge jeg ikke er værdig at løse; han skal døbe eder med den Helligaand og Ild.
17 which hath his fanne in his hond and will pourge his floore and will gader the corne into his barne: but the chaffe wyll he bourne with fyre that never shalbe quenched.
Hans Kasteskovl er i hans Haand, for at han skal gennemrense sin Lo og sanke Hveden i sin Lade, men Avnerne skal han opbrænde med uslukkelig Ild.‟
18 And many other thinges in his exhortacion preached he vnto the people.
Ligesaa formanede han ogsaa Folket om mange andre Ting og forkyndte dem Evangeliet.
19 Then Herode the Tetrach (when he was rebuked of him for Herodias his brother Philippes wyfe and for all the evyls which Herod had done)
Men da Fjerdingsfyrsten Herodes blev revset af ham for hans Broders Hustru, Herodias's Skyld og for alt det onde, som Herodes gjorde,
20 added this above all and leyd Iohn in preson.
saa føjede han til alt det øvrige ogsaa dette, at han kastede Johannes i Fængsel.
21 And yt fortuned as all the people receaved baptyme (and when Iesus was baptised and dyd praye) that heave was opened
Men medens hele Folket blev døbt, skete det, da ogsaa Jesus var bleven døbt og bad, at Himmelen aabnedes,
22 and the holy goost came doune in a bodely shape lyke a dove vpo him and a voyce came fro heve sayinge: Thou arte my dere sonne in the do I delyte.
og at den Helligaand dalede ned over ham i legemlig Skikkelse som en Due, og at en Røst lød fra Himmelen: „Du er min Søn, den elskede, i dig har jeg Velbehag.‟
