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 Uganiya me Hanana nan kayata we wani ana dandang aka tuma ka Asere, tize ta Asere ti ē Yohanna usam uzakariya anyimo ani jaa.
Annas and Caiaphas being the high priests, the word of God came to John the son of Zacharias in the wilderness.
3 Ma haki vat ati hihira sa ta kete uraba urdu, unu bezizi utize ta Asere nan ubaptisma ubarka barki uvette ucaran.
And he came into all the country about Jordan, preaching the baptism of repentance for the remission of sins;
4 Kasi uyerte utize ti Ishaya unu kurzuzo utize ta Asere, “Ni Myiran unu tissa ani Jaa, 'Barkani unaa Asere, Barkani tinaa tumeme dret.
As it is written in the book of the words of Isaiah the prophet, saying, The voice of one crying in the wilderness, Prepare you the way of the Lord, make his paths straight.
5 Kondi uya ugbangbang undi myinca, nan kondi niya nihoho nan nipana nidi tuu, nan ti naa ti mammangaran adi witti tini adi myinciza tinaa me sa tizin inti waa.
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 Vat anuu wadi iri ubura wa Asere”.
And all flesh shall see the salvation of God.
7 Yohana ma gun nigura nanuu me sa wa aye bati ma wuzi we ubaptisma “Shi ahana iwaa iti kono aveni magunan shi Isumi ucurnome iruba me sa I'eze?
Then said he to the multitude that came forth to be baptized of him, O generation of vipers, who has warned you to flee from the wrath to come?
8 Nyani ahana sa wazin in niruba ubarka, kati itubi ugusa “Tizin Ibrahim acoo uru, barki sa in boo shi Asere Madake ma kurzo apoo ageme ahana Ibrahim.
Bring forth therefore fruits worthy of repentance, and begin not to say within yourselves, We have Abraham to our father: for I say to you, That God is able of these stones to raise up children to Abraham.
9 Ana me amu wuna bitem atini ama titi barki anime vat utiti me sa wa game uyoo ahana wa ririn adi yori uni avetten anyimo uraa”.
And now also the ax is laid to the root of the trees: every tree therefore which brings not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire.
10 Nigura me niriaje unu igizo ume unu gusa “Nyanini tidi wuzi?”
And the people asked him, saying, What shall we do then?
11 Ma kabirka ma gun we “De sa mazin tidibi tini tiree ma nya de sa ma zomen ba u'inde, de sa mazin ini mumyarce ma wuzi anime cangi.
He answers and says to them, He that has two coats, let him impart to him that has none; and he that has meat, let him do likewise.
12 Anu kabsa Ikirfi imanyanga wa ē ma wuzi baptisma wa gun me “Unuu ubezizi, nyanini tidi wuzi?”
Then came also publicans to be baptized, and said to him, Master, what shall we do?
13 Ma gun we “Kati ikabi ikirfi me sa iteki ige sa agunan shi ikabi ba”.
And he said to them, Exact no more than that which is appointed you.
14 Anani kara nini kono wa iki me, wa gu, “A haru naa? Ma gun we, “Kati iburri uye ikirfi innikara ba, nan i canni uye upilko sa ma taame ba Tonnoni ikirfi uppe ushi me”.
And the soldiers likewise demanded of 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 Sa anuu waa zin nucanta uguna Yeso ma ē, konderi mameki ugamara me iruba anicee ni Yohana, nan memani Yeso.
And as the people were in expectation, and all men mused in their hearts of John, whether he were the Christ, or not;
16 Yohana makabirka ma gun Vat uwe “Me inzi shi unu baptisma inmei uye ma eze sa ma teki nikara num, ma bari in soppi tizin ta kpattak ameme ba. Madi wuzi shi ubaptisma in Bibe ba Asere bilau nan uraa.
John answered, saying to them all, I indeed baptize you with water; but one mightier than I comes, the lace of whose shoes I am not worthy to unloose: he shall baptize you with the Holy Ghost and with fire:
17 Upija utana wa alkana umeme uraa atari bati ma ori ma wuu ati kere tume Madi punsi mucini me unu raa sa uda bito ba”.
Whose fan is in his hand, and he will thoroughly purge his floor, and will gather the wheat into his garner; but the chaff he will burn with fire unquenchable.
18 Unu gbara kang, Yohana ma bezizi anuu abanga urunta.
And many other things in his exhortation preached he to the people.
19 Yohana ma gbarika ugomo Hiridus sa ma wuza anya nan unee uhenu me, Hiruduya, nan ukasu uti mum sa Hiridus ma wuza.
But Herod the tetrarch, being reproved by him for Herodias his brother Philip’s wife, and for all the evils which Herod had done,
20 Ma kurima kinkin ma wuu aka kurso Yohana akura anirere.
Added yet this above all, that he shut up John in prison.
21 Sa awuza anuu ubaptisma awuzi Yeso ubaptisma cangi, sa ma zin biringara Aseseri apokino.
Now when all the people were baptized, it came to pass, that Jesus also being baptized, and praying, the heaven was opened,
22 Bibe ba Asere bilau bituu me kasi uhurbe, nimyiran ni Aseseri “Hu vana mani, de sa inkunna me. In kunna urunta ume”.
And the Holy Ghost descended in a bodily shape like a dove on him, and a voice came from heaven, which said, You are my beloved Son; in you I am well pleased.
