Matiu 3
1 Ana knafina mono ti frezmante Joni'a, Judia kaziga ka'ma mopafi ne-eno amanage huno Anumzamofo ke huama huno zamasmi'ne.
In those days comes John the Baptist, preaching in the wilderness of Judea,
2 Kefozantamigu tamasunke huta tamagu'a rukrehe hiho. Na'ankure mona kuma'mo'a hago tava'o nehie.
saying, Repent ye, for the kingdom of the heavens is at hand.
3 Na'ankure korapa ama'na kegu kasnampa ne' Aisaia'a Joninku anagea hu'ne, Mago ageru'mo ka'ma mopafinti kezatino, Ramofo kana varinenteta, agri kana eri ante fatgo hiho hu'ne! (Ais 40:3)
This is the one, who is spoken of by Isaiah the prophet saying, The voice of one roaring in the wilderness; Prepare ye the way of the Lord; make straight His paths.
4 Joni'a kemori azokateti trohunte kena masi'neno, trazama nenaza afu'mofo akruteti amu'nofira nehuno, kenu'ene, afi' tumemofo rima'ane ne'ne.
And the same John had his raiment from camel's hair, and a leathern girdle about his loins; and his food was locusts and wild honey.
5 Anante Jerusalemi kumate vahemo'zane, Judia kazigati ene, ana mika Jodani kazigati vahe'mo'zane mika eri hantage'za Joninte etere hazageno,
Then Jerusalem and all Judea, and all the region about the Jordan, were coming out to him,
6 Joni'a Jodani timpi huama kumi'zmi hutere nehazageno, mono ti fre zamante'ne.
and were being baptized by him in the river Jordan, confessing their sins.
7 Hianagi agrama kege'za hakare'a Farisi vahe'ene, Sadusi vahe'ma mono ti frekure hu'za ageno, Joni'a anage huno zamasmi'ne, tamagra ha' osifavemofo mofavre nagare, aza tmasmino amuma ne-ea Anumzamofo rimpahe zampintira fregahaze huno tamasami'ne.
And seeing many of the Pharisees and Sadducees coming to his baptism, he said unto them; O generations of vipers, who hath warned you to flee from the wrath to come?
8 Ana hu'nagu raga rentenkeno, tamagu'a rukrehe hunaze huno tamage'za sena,
Therefore bring forth fruit worthy of repentance;
9 hagi Abrahamu'a nerfakita, tagra knare hu'none hutma osiho. Na'ankure nagrama tamagri'ma tamasamisuana, Anumzamo'a amne hanigeno ami havemo'a, Abrahamuna mofavre nagara fore humigahie.
and think not to say among yourselves; We have Abraham, our father; for I say unto you that God is able of these stones to raise up children unto Abraham.
10 Meninena hago sasumemo'a mika zafa agafare kriri'neankino, hakare zafamo knare ragama reontesia zafaramina, antagino tevefi mate'vuno atregahie.
But already the ax is laid to the root of the trees; therefore every tree not producing good fruit is hewn down and cast into the fire.
11 Nagra amne tinteti mono tina fre nermantoe, tamagu'a rukrahe hanazegu, hianagi Agra henkama ne-emo'a nagrira nagatereno hihamu'ane ne' egahie, hige'na nagra Agri aganona (sendol) erizafiga osu'noe. Ruotge Avamuteti'ene tevenu'ene Agra mono tina fre ramantegahie.
I indeed baptize you with water unto repentance, but there is One coming after me more powerful than I, whose sandals I am not worthy to carry; He will baptize you with the Holy Ghost and fire.
12 Witi ne'za eri atru hania kna hago atupa nehigeno, Agra vazihehehu azota azampi erino mani'ne. Hanki witi akru hare kuma eri hagro nehuno, anampinti nena'a zogirino erino nompi Agra ome nenteno, hona'a tevava tevefi krenkeno tegahie.
Whose fan is in His hand, and He will thoroughly purify His threshing-floor, and gather His wheat into the garner, and will burn up the chaff with unquenchable fire.
13 Anante Jisasi'a Galiliti atreno Joni mono ti frente'snie huno Jodani tinte e'ne.
Then cometh Jesus from Galilee to Jordan unto John, in order to be baptized by him.
14 Hianagi Joni'a tima Agri'ma frente'zankura i'o nehuno, Kagra, nagrira tina fre nantesankeno knarera hugahie, hianagi Kagra nagritega neano?
And John continued to forbid Him saying, I have need to be baptized by thee, and comest thou unto me?
15 Hianagi Jisasi'a ke nona'a Jonina asmino, Menina amne fre nantegahane, na'ankure tagrati'a e'inama hanu'ana fatgo avu'avaza hugahue, higeno Joni'a Agri ke antahino,
And Jesus responding said to him; Suffer it now; for thus it is becoming us to fulfil all righteousness. Then he suffers Him.
16 mono tima frentegeno, Jisasi'a ana timpinti ame huno otino ankenarega mrerino ne-egeno, monamo hagro nehigeno, keana Anumzamofo Avamu'mo maho nama'gna huno akoheno eramino Jisasinte emani'ne.
And Jesus having been baptized, came up straightway from the water; and behold, the heavens were opened and He saw the Spirit of God, descending like a dove, coming on Him.
17 Higeno, monafinkati mago ageru'mo huno, Ama'i Nagrama avesinento'a magoke Mofavreni'agi'na Nagra tusi'a muse Agrira hunentoe.
And behold, a voice from the heavens, saying; This is my beloved Son in whom I delight.
