1Now 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,
1وفي السنة الخامسة عشر من سلطنة طيباريوس قيصر اذ كان بيلاطس البنطي واليا على اليهودية وهيرودس رئيس ربع على الجليل وفيلبس اخوه رئيس ربع على ايطورية وكورة تراخونيتس وليسانيوس رئيس ربع على الابلية
2Annas and Caiaphas being the high priests, the word of God came unto John the son of Zacharias in the wilderness.
2في ايام رئيس الكهنة حنان وقيافا كانت كلمة الله على يوحنا بن زكريا في البرية.
3And he came into all the country about Jordan, preaching the baptism of repentance for the remission of sins;
3فجاء الى جميع الكورة المحيطة بالاردن يكرز بمعمودية التوبة لمغفرة الخطايا.
4As it is written in the book of the words of Esaias the prophet, saying, The voice of one crying in the wilderness, Prepare ye the way of the Lord, make his paths straight.
4كما هو مكتوب في سفر اقوال اشعياء النبي القائل صوت صارخ في البرية أعدّوا طريق الرب اصنعوا سبله مستقيمة.
5Every 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;
5كل واد يمتلئ وكل جبل واكمة ينخفض وتصير المعوجات مستقيمة والشعاب طرقا سهلة.
6And all flesh shall see the salvation of God.
6ويبصر كل بشر خلاص الله
7Then said he to the multitude that came forth to be baptized of him, O generation of vipers, who hath warned you to flee from the wrath to come?
7وكان يقول للجموع الذين خرجوا ليعتمدوا منه يا اولاد الافاعي من اراكم ان تهربوا من الغضب الآتي.
8Bring forth therefore fruits worthy of repentance, and begin not to say within yourselves, We have Abraham to our father: for I say unto you, That God is able of these stones to raise up children unto Abraham.
8فاصنعوا اثمارا تليق بالتوبة. ولا تبتدئوا تقولون في انفسكم لنا ابراهيم ابا. لاني اقول لكم ان الله قادر ان يقيم من هذه الحجارة اولادا لابراهيم.
9And now also the axe is laid unto the root of the trees: every tree therefore which bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire.
9والآن قد وضعت الفاس على اصل الشجر. فكل شجرة لا تصنع ثمرا جيدا تقطع وتلقى في النار.
10And the people asked him, saying, What shall we do then?
10وسأله الجموع قائلين فماذا نفعل.
11He answereth and saith unto them, He that hath two coats, let him impart to him that hath none; and he that hath meat, let him do likewise.
11فاجاب وقال لهم من له ثوبان فليعط من ليس له ومن له طعام فليفعل هكذا.
12Then came also publicans to be baptized, and said unto him, Master, what shall we do?
12وجاء عشارون ايضا ليعتمدوا فقالوا له يا معلّم ماذا نفعل.
13And he said unto them, Exact no more than that which is appointed you.
13فقال لهم لا تستوفوا اكثر مما فرض لكم.
14And the soldiers likewise demanded of him, saying, And what shall we do? And he said unto them, Do violence to no man, neither accuse any falsely; and be content with your wages.
14وسأله جنديون ايضا قائلين وماذا نفعل نحن. فقال لهم لا تظلموا احدا ولا تشوا باحد واكتفوا بعلائفكم
15And as the people were in expectation, and all men mused in their hearts of John, whether he were the Christ, or not;
15واذ كان الشعب ينتظر والجميع يفكرون في قلوبهم عن يوحنا لعله المسيح
16John answered, saying unto them all, I indeed baptize you with water; but one mightier than I cometh, the latchet of whose shoes I am not worthy to unloose: he shall baptize you with the Holy Ghost and with fire:
16اجاب يوحنا الجميع قائلا انا اعمدكم بماء ولكن يأتي من هو اقوى مني الذي لست اهلا ان احل سيور حذائه. هو سيعمدكم بالروح القدس ونار.
17Whose fan is in his hand, and he will throughly purge his floor, and will gather the wheat into his garner; but the chaff he will burn with fire unquenchable.
17الذي رفشه في يده وسينقي بيدره ويجمع القمح الى مخزنه. واما التبن فيحرقه بنار لا تطفأ.
18And many other things in his exhortation preached he unto the people.
18وباشياء أخر كثيرة كان يعظ الشعب ويبشرهم.
19But Herod the tetrarch, being reproved by him for Herodias his brother Philip's wife, and for all the evils which Herod had done,
19اما هيرودس رئيس الربع فاذ توبخ منه لسبب هيروديا امرأة فيلبّس اخيه ولسبب جميع الشرور التي كان هيرودس يفعلها
20Added yet this above all, that he shut up John in prison.
20زاد هذا ايضا على الجميع انه حبس يوحنا في السجن
21Now when all the people were baptized, it came to pass, that Jesus also being baptized, and praying, the heaven was opened,
21ولما اعتمد جميع الشعب اعتمد يسوع ايضا. واذ كان يصلّي انفتحت السماء
22And the Holy Ghost 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.
22ونزل عليه الروح القدس بهيئة جسمية مثل حمامة وكان صوت من السماء قائلا انت ابني الحبيب بك سررت
