Luka 3
1 Itungli myaka Ikumi na utano utemi wanywa kaikani Tiberia, Matungo Pontio Pilato mudimi wang'wa Uyahudi, Herode ayi mukulu wa kisali Galilaya, Filipo muluna akwe amukulu wakisali kang'wa Iturea nutrakoniti, nu Lisania amukulu wakisali kang'wa Abilene,
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, —
2 Matungo umudimi mukulu wa Anasi nukayafa, Lukani Langwi Itunda alumuzie Yohana wana ang'wa Zakaria mumbuga.
in the High-priesthood of Annas and Caiaphas, came a word of God unto John the son, of Zechariah, in rue desert;
3 Aulongoe muhinzo mkisali kihii nikipilimiye umongo wa mazi nu ang'wa Yordani, akizitanatia itai naubadisigwa nanukuheja imilandu.
and he came into all the country about the Jordan, proclaiming an immersion of repentance into remission of sins:
4 Anga naiandikilwe mukitabu kankani yang'wa Isaya naauotile, ululi la muntu nakulila, nyika noneeli mukondien Inzura amukulu na munonelye Inzula akwe igoloke.
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;
5 Makombo ihi akizulig'wa malugulu niana malugulu ihi akunoneligwa ninzula niyikunyile ikikogoolwa ninzila Yihi nimbi yikuzipigwa.
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; —
6 Antu ihi akuona uguni wang'wi Itunda.
And all flesh shall see the salvation of God.
7 Kululo u Yohana akauila umilundo nukulunu antu au muhangile abatisigwe nugwenso uye wileli wanzoka nua uhungu nubii nyinyu na muhuguye kuumanka ubii nauzile.
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?
8 Leli Indiya niyipyani nitai namuleke kulunga mkati anyu kukete u Ibarahimu ingi tata witu kunsoko nimuila kuiti Itunda ukete uhumi kumuhumbula Ibalihimu ng'wana kupuma mumagwe aya.
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.
9 Ingigwa ihengo aikwa mumili a miti kululo u muti nishawitugaa Indya ninza wite ng'wa mu moto.
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.
10 Sunga iantu niilundie akamukolya akalunga, i magwe aya utakile kutende ulii?
And the multitude began to question him saying—What, then, shall we do?
11 Akasusha akalunga ang'wi muntu ukite nkanzu Ibili utakiwe aheje nkanzu ing'wi amupe umuya numugila nuyu nukete indya witume uu.
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.
12 Sunga iahoela mpia ikaza kubadisigwa akamuila, mumanyi kutendeuli.
And there came, even tax-collectors, to be immersed; and they said unto him—Teacher! what, shall we, do?
13 Aka aila, '' leki kuhoeli impia ni Idu kukela ni mutakile kuhoela.
And, he, said unto them, Nothing more than what is appointed you, exact ye.
14 Anya nguru akamuila akalunga ause? kitumentuni?
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.
15 Matungo, Iantu aiakite Insula akumulindila U-kristo kila muntu akasiga munkolo akwe kunsoko ng'wenso Kristo.
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,
16 U yohana akaaila ihii, ''unene kumubatiza unye kumanzi ukoli nuzile nukete uhumi kukila une, nishantakiwe kutungula uludingi la ilatu yakwe. ukumubatiza unye kung'wang'welu nu kumoto.
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:
17 Ipetelo lakwe likoli kumukono akwe kupyagula ni Iza ikiuga nikakupetela Ingano nukilingila Ingano misalanka lakwe ingi gwa ukuma sansa imakamilya kumoto ni shawilimaa.
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.
18 Ukeneli widu autanantilye nkani ninza kuantu.
So then indeed, as to many things and various, he exhorted, and continued telling his glad-message unto the people.
19 U Yohana aumpatile U - Herode mukulu wa kisali akamutina U - Herode musungu wa ng'wa muluna akwe nuku mabi nidu ni mangiza u Herode nutendile.
But, Herod the tetrarch, being reproved by him concerning Herodias, the wife of his brother, and concerning all the wicked things Herod had done,
20 Matungo naitwile Herde aiwitumile uubi ukulu na ngulu, akamu tunga Yohana kukitungo.
added this also unto all, —he locked up John in prison.
21 Ingi aipumie matungo iantu ihii naiakubadilisi gwa nu Yesu nu ng'wenso aubadisigwe, Imatungo naukulompa, Ilunde likalunguka.
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;
22 Ung'wa ngwelu akasima migulya akwe. anga Inyunyi, Matungo yayo yayo luli likaza kupuma milunde likalilya. Ue Ingi nu anso ng'wana wane ninumukuilye.
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.
23 U-Yesu ung'wenso, naiwapisha Imyaka makumi ataatu. Akandilya kumanyisa akazimpaya nigwa anga ng'wana ang'wa Yusufu, anga Eli.
And, Jesus himself, was, when he began, about thirty years of age, being the son, as was supposed—of Joseph, of Heli:
