| [1]NOW in the fifteenth year of the reign of Tiberios Cesar, in the government of Pontios Pilatos in Jehud, Herodes being chiefⓘ of the Fourth in Galila, and Philipos his brother chief of the Fourth in Ituria and in the region of Trakona, and Lusania chief of the Fourth of Abilini; |
[1]Nowe, in the fifteenth yere of ye raigne of Tiberius Cesar, Pontius Pilate being lieftenaut of Iurie, and Herode being tetrarch of Galilee, & his brother Philip tetrarch of Iturea, and of the region of ye Trachonites, and Lysanias the tetrarch of Abiline |
| [2]In the high priesthood of Chanan and of Kaiopha, was the word of Aloha unto Juchanon bar Zakaria in the desert. |
[2]When Annas and Caiaphas were the hye priestes, the worde of the Lorde came vnto Iohn, the sonne of Zacharias, in the wyldernesse |
| [3]And he came into the whole country about the Jurdan, preaching the baptism of repentance for the remission of sins. |
[3]And he came into all the coastes about Iordane, preachyng the baptisme of repentaunce, for the remission of sinnes |
| [4]As it is written in the book of the words of Eshaia the prophet, who said, The voice which crieth in the desert, prepare the way of the Lord, and make straight in the plain the highways for our Aloha. |
[4]As it is writte in ye booke of the wordes of Esaias the prophete, saying: The voyce of a cryer in wyldernesse, prepare ye the way of ye Lorde, make his pathes strayght |
| [5]All valleys shall be filled, and all mountains and heights be brought low, and the mound shall be a level [place], and the rough place a plain, |
[5]Euery valley shalbe fylled, and euery mountayne & hyll shalbe brought lowe: And thynges that be croked, shalbe made strayght, and the rough wayes shalbe made playne |
| [6]And all flesh shall see the salvation of Aloha. |
[6]And all flesshe, shall see the saluation of God |
| [7]And he said to those multitudes who came to him to be baptized, O brood of vipers, who hath showed you to flee from the wrath that cometh? |
[7]Then saide he to the people that were come foorth to be baptized of hym: O generations of vipers, who hath forewarned you to flee from the wrath to come |
| [8]Work therefore fruits which are worthy of repentance. And begin not to say within yourselves that Abraham is father to us; for I tell you, that from these stones Aloha is able to raise up sons unto Abraham. |
[8]Bryng foorth therefore due fruites of repentaunce, and begyn not to say within your selues, we haue Abraham to our father: For I saye vnto you, that God is able of these stones, to rayse vp childre vnto Abraham |
| [9]But, behold, the axe is laid at the root of the trees. Every tree therefore which good fruit maketh not, is cut down and into the fire falleth. |
[9]Nowe also is the axe layed vnto the roote of the trees: Euery tree therfore which bryngeth not foorth good fruite, is hewen downe, and cast into the fire |
| [10]And the assemblies inquired of him, saying, What then shall we do? |
[10]And the people asked hym, saying: What shall we do then |
| [11]He answered and said to them, Whoever hath two tunics, let him give to him who hath none; and whoever hath food, so let him do [likewise]. |
[11]He aunswereth, and sayth vnto them: He that hath two coates, let him part with hym that hath none: and he that hath meate, let hym do lykewyse |
| [12]The publicansⓘ also came to be baptized, and they said to him, Malphona, what shall we do? |
[12]Then came publicanes also to be baptized, and saide vnto him: Maister, what shall we do |
| [13]But he said to them, Demand not any thing more upon what is prescribed to you to require. |
[13]And he sayde vnto them: Require no more then that which is appoynted vnto you |
| [14]And the military servants asked of him and said, What shall we also do? And he said to them, Molest no man, oppress no man, and let your wages satisfy you. |
[14]The souldiours lykewyse demaunded of hym, saying: And what shall we do? And he saide vnto them: Do violence to no man, neither accuse any falsely, and be content with your wages |
| [15]But while the people thought concerning Juchanon, and all of them reasoned in their hearts whether he were the Meshicha, |
[15]As the people wayted, & all men mused in their heartes of Iohn, whether he were very Christe |
| [16]Juchanon answered and said to them, Behold, I baptize you with waters, but there cometh after me He who is mightier than I; He, the latchet of whose sandals I am not worthy to unloose; He shall baptize you with the Spirit of Holiness and with fire: |
[16]Iohn aunswered, and said vnto them all, In deede I baptize you with water: but one stronger then I commeth, whose shoes latched I am not worthy to vnlose, he shall baptize you with the holy ghost, and with fire |
| [17]He who, holding the fan in his hand, and cleansing his floors, gathereth the wheat into his garners, and the chaff he will burn in the fire which is not quenched. |
[17]Which hath his fanne in his hande, & wyll purge his floore, & wyll gather the wheate into his barne: but ye chaffe wyl burne vp, with fire that neuer shalbe quenched |
| [18]But many other things he also taught and preached to the people. |
[18]And many other thinges, in his exhortation, preached he vnto the people |
| [19]But Herodes Tetrarka, because he was reproved by Juchanon concerning Herodia the wife of Philipos his brother, and concerning all the evil things which he had done, |
[19]Then Herode the tetrarch, when he was rebuked of hym for Herodias, his brother Philippes wyfe, and for all the euyls which Herode dyd |
| [20]Added this also upon all, and shut up Juchanon in the house of the chained. |
[20]Added this aboue all, & shut vp Iohn in pryson |
| [21]But it was when he had baptized all the people, and also Jeshu he baptized. And while he prayed, the heavens were opened, |
[21]Nowe it came to passe, as all the people were baptized, and when Iesus was baptized, and dyd praye, that the heauen was opened |
| [22]And the Spirit of Holiness descended upon him in the bodily likeness of a dove: and the voice was from the heavens, which said, Thou art my Son the Beloved One, in thee I have delighted. |
[22]And the holy ghost came downe, in a bodyly shape lyke a Doue, vpon hym: and a voyce came from heauen, which sayde, Thou art my beloued sonne, in thee I am well pleased |
