2me Anas lo Kaiapas îmô hîtôm kwandôk bêng îmbôk da. Hêndêng wak êng me Sekalaia nakandung Jon hîmô long thiliv me Wapômbêng hêv ya ambô hêndêng yêni.during the high priesthood of Annas and Caiaphas, the word of God came to John son of Zechariah in the wilderness.

3Êng me Jon hê eveng long takatu be hîmô bidong ŋanam Yelodan me henang vo avîlanô ende kapôlôŋing lîlîng be ithik ŋanam vo Wapômbêng tem nêŋgêv loho ning kambom vê.He went into all the region around the Jordan, preaching a baptism of repentance for the forgiveness of sins,

4Hevong bêng hîtôm plopet Aisaia bôk hekavu hîlôk ya kapua nena, “Kaêk te helam heveng long thiliv nena, ‘Ôpôpêk loŋdaŋlê vo Anômbêng êlêm, me opesang be nimbutak thêthôp vo yêni.as it is written in the book of the words of Isaiah the prophet: “A voice of one calling in the wilderness, ‘Prepare the way for the Lord, make straight paths for Him.

5Uthivung kolong sapêng thing me onde dumlôlê sapêng pesa be nimbutak kalông. Me opesang loŋdaŋlê lêkgwak be nimbutak thêthôp me loŋdaŋlê hethak be hîlôk me opesang be nimbutak thêthê mavî.Every valley shall be filled in, and every mountain and hill made low. The crooked ways shall be made straight, and the rough ways smooth.

6Me avîlanô pîk sapêng tem injê Malatine atu be Wapômbêng hêv hêlêm ya ku.’ ”And all humanity will see God’s salvation.’”

7Avîlanô bêng anông ê hêndêng vo nithik loho metom henang ethak loho nena, “Môlô me bôyîv kambom nali! Osong nena tem ya thik môlô vo ôsôv injêk Wapômbêng ya la maning e? Mî anông!Then John said to the crowds coming out to be baptized by him, “You brood of vipers, who warned you to flee from the coming wrath?

8Be ditu môlô ning kombom iŋgik thô imbing nena lêk ole kapôlômim lîlîng yôv. Me dô lemim êŋgêv auk te be onang ethak amda nena, ‘Ablaham me yoô ning bumalô, be ditu yoô me avîlanô thêthôp.’ Mî. Ya hanang ethak môlô nena Wapômbêng hîtôm nimbua valu takiti be nepesang Ablaham limi ethak.Produce fruit, then, in keeping with repentance. And do not begin to say to yourselves, ‘We have Abraham as our father.’ For I tell you that out of these stones God can raise up children for Abraham.

9Iyam lêk hêk alokwang ondong yôv vo alokwang takatu be mî hik anông mavî amî me tem ende li be îmbôk ethak amela.”The axe lies ready at the root of the trees, and every tree that does not produce good fruit will be cut down and thrown into the fire.”

10Me avîlanô nômbêng atu be elaŋô ya ambô enang ik yêni ling nena, “Tem yoômbong ômbête?”The crowds asked him, “What then should we do?”

11Me Jon henang nena, “Opalê atu be ya kwêv yi hîmô me nêŋgêv yang êndêng ôpyang atu be kwêv mî. Me opalê atu be ya nôm hîmô me nêŋgêv doho êndêng ôpyang atu be nôm mî.”John replied, “Whoever has two tunics should share with him who has none, and whoever has food should do the same.”

12Me ŋa iwa takis doho êlêm vo Jon ithik loho imbing be enang ik yêni ling nena, “Kîdôŋga, tem yoômbong ômbête?”Even tax collectors came to be baptized. “Teacher,” they asked, “what should we do?”

13Me Jon enang ethak loho nena, “Môlômbua takis îtôm Lom ining anômbêng henang yom me dô umbua doho oyang êyômô imbing andô.”“Collect no more than you are authorized,” he answered.

14Me ŋa vovak doho enang ik yêni ling hiving nena, “Me tem yoômbong ômbête?” Me henang ethak loho nena, “Lemim êŋgêv nena ovong ku alêla be êv môlô vuli ethak vithê me ditu hîtôm yom. Me dô môlômbong avîlanô êkô be êŋgêv ining valuseleng êndêng môlô andô. Lêk dô ômbî ambô oyang ethak avîlanô takatu be mî evong kambom te amî vo umbua ining valuseleng andô.”Then some soldiers asked him, “And what should we do?” “Do not take money by force or false accusation,” he said. “Be content with your wages.”

15Avîlanô Islael thak êv maleŋing vo Mesaya nena tem nêlêm. Be ditu êyê Jon hevong ku takêng be leŋing êv nena betha Mesaya atu ma.The people were waiting expectantly and were all wondering in their hearts if John could be the Christ.

16Metom Jon henang ethak loho nena, “Ya hathik môlô hethak ŋanam, metom ôpatu be tem nembeng ya yam me ya lêklokwang me bêng anông vo yînîng. Yêni me anô lêk athêng bêng me ya me ya hamô ŋa ku oyang vimbing, be mî hîtôm ya pole ya vakapô bokgôp ya yak vê amî. Yêni tem nithik môlô ethak Lovak Matheng lêk amela.John answered all of them: “I baptize you with water, but One more powerful than I will come, the straps of whose sandals I am not worthy to untie. He will baptize you with the Holy Spirit and with fire.

17Me hevalong ya sala vo nethong ini wit be nîtîtînîng vo kôpik lêk limbalôm sapêng eŋgololong endebe nitup êm. Mîng nimbua ya anông be ni tak îmô melak kapô, metom ya kôpik me nîmbôk ethak amela atu be mî nema amî.”His winnowing fork is in His hand to clear His threshing floor and to gather the wheat into His barn; but He will burn up the chaff with unquenchable fire.”

18Me Jon enang ambô bêng anông hiving vo niŋgik avîlanô leŋing ling me henang Wapômbêng ya Ambô Mavî hêndêng loho.With these and many other exhortations, John proclaimed the good news to the people.

19Lêk hethang Galili ning Anômbêng Helot hethak ya kombom kambom takatu be hevong be henang nena, “Bisête be huwa aviyam yanavî Helodias hîtôm vônîm?”But when he rebuked Herod the tetrarch regarding his brother’s wife Herodias and all the evils he had done,

20Êng me Helot evong kambom yang hethak loŋbô nena hetak Jon hîlôk kalaondong.Herod added this to them all: He locked John up in prison.

21Waklavông atu be Jon hithik avîlanô me hithik Yisu hiving. Hithik yôvêm me Yisu heteng mek me leng hikê.When all the people were being baptized, Jesus was baptized too. And as He was praying, heaven was opened,

22Me Lovak Matheng hîlôk be hêlêm nang menak bôbô be hêyô hîmô yêni. Me kaêk te hêlêm nang leng be henang nena, “Ong me yînîng wakna atu be ya leng hiving anông. Me ya leng mavî anông hethak ong.”and the Holy Spirit descended on Him in a bodily form like a dove. And a voice came from heaven: “You are My beloved Son; in You I am well pleased.”
