Lúcás 3
1 Agus an-cuigeadh bliadhan déug dimpireachid Thibérius Séasar, ar mbeith do Phonsius Phioláid na úachdarán a ttir Iúdáighe, agus Ioruáith na théatrarc sa Ngalilé, agus Philip a dhearbhrathair na théatrarc air Ituréa agus air chrích Thrachonítis, agus Lísánias na thetrarch air Abiléne,
Now in the fifteenth year of the reign of Tiberius Caesar, Pontius Pilate being governor of Judaea, and Herod being tetrarch of Galilee, and his brother Philip tetrarch of Ituraea and of the region of Trachonitis, and Lysanias the tetrarch of Abilene,
2 An tan do bhí Annas agus Caiphás na nárdshagartuibh, tháinic bríathar Dé chum Eóin mhic Sacharías san bhfásach.
Annas and Caiaphas being the high priests, the word of God came to John the son of Zacharias in the wilderness.
3 Uime sin tháinic sé ar feadh na dúithche a dtimcheall Iórdan, ag seanmóir bhaisdigh na haithrighe chuin maithmbeachuis na bpeacadh;
And he came into all the country about Jordan, preaching the baptism of repentance for the remission of sins;
4 Mar a tá sgríobhtha a leabhar comhráidhteagh Esaías fáidh, a deir, Guth an té éighmheas ar an bhfásadh, Ullmhuighidh slighe an Tighearna, déanuidh a chasáin díreach.
As it is written in the book of the words of Isaiah the prophet, saying, The voice of one crying in the wilderness, Prepare ye the way of the Lord, make his paths straight.
5 Líonfuidhear gach uile ghleann, agus ísleochthar gach uile sliabh agus chnoc; agus béid na neithe cama díreach, agus na slighthe garba mín;
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;
6 Agus do chífi gach uile fheoil slanughadh Dé.
And all flesh shall see the salvation of God.
7 Uime sin a dubhairt sé rís a tslúagh tháinic a mach do chum go mbaisdfeadh seisean íad: A shliochd na naithreach neimhe, cía thug rabhadh dhaóibh teitheadh ón fheirg a tá ag teachd?
Then said he to the multitude that came forth to be baptized by him, O generation of vipers, who hath warned you to flee from the wrath to come?
8 Ar a nadhbharsin tabhraidh tórrtha bhus iomchubhaidh don naithrighe úaibh, agus ná tionsgnaidh a rádh ionnaibh féin, A tá Abraham na athair aguinn: oír a deirimsi ribh, Gur ab éidir lé Dia clann do dhúsachd as na clochmibhse féin D'abraham.
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 of these stones to raise up children to Abraham.
9 Agus a tá an tuáigh a nois fós ar na cur chum fréimhe na gcrann: ar a nadhbharsin gach uile chrann nach dtabhair toradh maith gearrthar é, agus teilgthear sa teinidh é.
And now also the axe is laid to the root of the trees: every tree therefore which bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire.
10 Agus do fhíafruigh an slúagh nile dhe, ag rádh, Ar a nadhbharsin créud do dheunam?
And the people asked him, saying, What shall we do then?
11 Agus ar bhfreagra dhósan a dubhairt sé ríu, An té agá bhfuil dá chóta, roinneadh ris an té ag nach bhfuil; agus gidh bé agá bhfuil bíadh, déanadh sé mar an gcéudna.
He answereth and saith to them, He that hath two coats, let him impart to him that hath none; and he that hath food, let him do likewise.
12 Agus tangadar na puibliocáin mar an gcéudna ionnus go mbaisdfidhe íad, agus a dubhradar ris, A mhaighisdir, créud do dhéunáimné?
Then came also tax collectors to be baptized, and said to him, Master, what shall we do?
13 Agus a dubhairt seision ríu, Na déunuidh ní sa mhó ná do horduigheadh dhaóibh.
And he said to them, Exact no more than that which is appointed you.
14 Agus do chuireadar na saighdiúirígh fós ceisd air, ag rádh, Agus créad do dhéunuimne? agus a dubhairt seisean ríu, Ná déunaidh foiréigean ar dhuine ar bith, agus ná hagraidh duine ar bith go heugcórach agus go madh lór libh bhur dtúarasdal féin.
And the soldiers likewise asked him, saying, And what shall we do? And he said to them, Do violence to no man, neither accuse any falsely; and be content with your wages.
15 Agus ar mbeith ag feitheamh don phobal, agus ag smúainiughadh dhóibh uile an a gcroidhthibh a dtimcheall Eóin, nar bheisean Chríosd,
And as the people were in expectation, and all men mused in their hearts concerning John, whether he was the Christ, or not;
16 Do fheagair Eóin, ag rádh ríu uile, Baisdeamsa sibh go deimhin lé huisge; achd a tá neach is nearthmhuire ná misi ag teachd, ag nach fiú mé íallach a bhróg do sgáoileadh: baisdfidh seision sibh leis an Spiorad Náomh agus lé teinidh:
John answered, saying to them all, I indeed baptize you in water; but one mightier than I cometh, the latchet of whose shoes I am not worthy to loose: he shall baptize you in the Holy Spirit and in fire:
17 Aga bhfuil a chríathar an a láimh, agus glanfidh sé a urlár féin, agus cruinnéochuidh sé an chruithneachd dá sgiobol féin; achd loisgfidh sé an cháith lé teine nách eidir a mhúchadh.
Whose fan is in his hand, and he will thoroughly cleanse his floor, and will gather the wheat into his barn; but the chaff he will burn with fire unquenchable.
18 Agus ag teagasg mhóráin eile fós dó do mhinigh sé an siosgéul don phobal.
And many other things in his exhortation he preached to the people.
19 Agus ar gcur an aghaidh Iórúaith an Téatrarca dhó, fá Heródias bean Philip a dhearbhrathar, agus fá gach uile olc dá ndearna Iorúaith,
But Herod the tetrarch, being reproved by him on account of Herodias his brother Philip’s wife, and for all the evils which Herod had done,
20 Do chuir sé so leis do bhárr ar gach ní, gur dhúin sé ar Eóin a bpríosún.
Added yet this above all, that he shut up John in prison.
21 Agus tárla, an tan do baisdeadh an pobal uile, agus do bhí Iósa agá bhalsdeadh, agus ag déanamh úrnaighthe, gur bosgladh neamh,
Now when all the people were baptized, it came to pass, that Jesus also being baptized, and praying, the heaven was opened,
22 Agus gur thuirrling an Spiorad Náomh a bhfioghair chorpardha mar cholum air, agus do dtáinic guth ó neamh, ag rádh, Is tú mo Mhac grádhachsa; is ionnadsa a tá mo dheaghthoil.
And the Holy Spirit 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.
23 Agus do bhí Iosa féin a dtimchioll a dheichmblíadhan fichead dáois, ar mbeith (do réir bhreathnuighthe na ndáoine) na mbac ag Ióseph, mhic Héli,
