1 Mu mwaka walikumi ne cisanu Tibelyo, mwami wa ku Loma. Pontiyasi Pilato pacindi ico walikuba emuleli wacishi ca Yudeya. Helodi neye walikuba muleli wa cishi ca Galileya. Filipo mukwabo Helodi, walikendelesha cishi ca Ituliya ne Tilakoniti. Lisaniya walikuba emuleli wa cishi ca Abilini.
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
2 Pa cindico Anasi ne Kayafa balikuba beshimilumbo bamakulene. Pacindi copeleci Lesa walamupa mulumbe Yohane mwanendi Sakaliya mucinyika.
when Anna and Cayphas were the hye prestes: the worde of God came vnto Iohn ye sonne of zacharias in the wildernes.
3 Popelapo Yohane walaya akukambauka muminshi yonse yalikuba yashunguluka mulonga wa Yolodani, kabambileti, “Sandukani mu myoyo yenu, mubatishiwe, kwambeti Lesa amulekelele bwipishi bwenu.”
And he came in to all the coostes aboute Iordan preachynge the baptyme of repentaunce for the remission of synnes
4 Ibi embyalamba mushinshimi Yesaya eti, “Muntu labilikishinga mucinyika lambangeti, ‘Kamubamba nshila ya mwami. Kamululamika nshila yakendi.
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.
5 Misena yonse yakunama nikafukilwe, milundu ne bina byonse nibikacepeshewe. Nshila shapetuka petuka nishikalulamikwe. Sha byeshikupuntula nishikaswepe.
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:
6 Lino mishobo yonse ya bantu nikabone lupulusho lwa Lesa!’”
and all flesshe shall se the saveour sent of God.
7 Bantu bangi balaya nkwalikuba Yohane kwambeti enga ababatishe. Nomba nendi walabambileti, “Amwe omulyeti njoka, niyani lamucenjeshe kufwamba bukalu bwa Lesa bulesanga?
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?
8 Kamwinsani milimo yaina yeshikulesha kwambeti mulasanduku myoyo yenu. Kamutambangeti, mwalulama pakwinga Abulahamu. ebameshenu. Ndamwambilinga Lesa ngausandula mabwe aya kuba banabendi Abulahamu.
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.
9 Nomba lino kembe kakankwa kendi pamiyanda ya bitondo. Neco citondo cili conse citaseme bisepo byaina, nicikatemwe nekuciwala pamulilo.”
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.
10 Nomba bantu balamwipusha Yohane eti, “Nomba lino twinse aconi?”
And the people axed him sayinge: What shall we do then?
11 Nendi Yohane walambeti, “Uyo ukute byakulya apeko munendi wabula. Neye ukute byakufwala ense copeleco.”
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.
12 Naboyo beshimisonko balikuyanda kubatishiwa, balamwipusha Yohane eti, “Shikwiyisha, nomba twinsenga cani?”
Then came ther Publicans to be baptised and sayde vnto him: Master what shall we do?
13 Nendi Yohane walabambileti, “Mutasonkeshanga mwelo wapitilila.”
And he sayde vnto the: requyre no more then that which ys appoynted vnto you.
14 Naboyo bashilikali balamwipusheti, “Nomba twinsenga cani?” Nendi Yohane walabambileti, “Mutalamunanga muntu cintu cakendi pakumuyosha nambi kumunanika mulandu. Amwe mali ngomulafolonga amukwanine.”
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.
15 Pakwinga pacindici bantu bangi balikupembelela kwisa kwa Mupulushi Walaiwa ne Lesa, bantu balatatika kuyeyeti mpani Yohane eMupulushi usa Walaiwa ne Lesa.
As the people were in a doute and all men disputed in their hertes of Iohn whether he were very Christ:
16 Lino Yohane walabambila bonseti, “Ame ndamubatishinga ne menshi, nsombi lesanga wampita kayi nkandela kucikonsha kuba musha wakendi uyo wela kusungulula ntambo sha nkwabilo shakendi. Uyo nendi naka mubatishenga ne Mushimu Uswepa ne mulilo.
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:
17 Nendi ukute cakupupulushilako maila mumakasa akendi kwambeti apupulushe nekwalongela mulyanga, Lino nakatente bungu bonse mumulilo utashimiki.”
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.
18 Yohane walikukambauka Mulumbe Waina nekubacenjesha munshila shapusa pusana.
And many other thinges in his exhortacion preached he vnto the people.
19 Nomba Yohane walakalalila mwami Helodi pacebo cakweba Helodyasi, muka mukwabo, ne pacebo ca bintu byaipa nabimbi mbyalikwinsa.
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)
20 Kusankanya pabwipishi ubu, Helode walamusunga Yohane mujele.
added this above all and leyd Iohn in preson.
21 Busuba nabumbi bantu bonse mpobalabatishiwa, neye Yesu walabatishiwa. Lino pacindi mpwali kupaila kwilu kwalacaluka,
And yt fortuned as all the people receaved baptyme (and when Iesus was baptised and dyd praye) that heave was opened
22 Kai ne Mushimu Uswepa walikuboneketi nkulimba walaseluka nekwisa kwikala pali endiye. Ne liswi lyalanyumfwika kwilu eti, “Njobe mwaname ngonsuni mumoyo mwakame, pali njobe ndakondwa.”
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.
