| 1 | Now in the fifteenth year of the reign of Tiberius Caesar, Pontius Pilate being governor of Judea, Herod being tetrarch of Galilee, his brother Philip tetrarch of Iturea and the region of Trachonitis, and Lysanias tetrarch of Abilene, |
|
ΕνέτειδὲπεντεκαιδεκάτωτῆςηγεμονίαςΤιβερίουΚαίσαρος,ηγεμονεύοντοςΠοντίουΠιλάτουτῆςΙουδαίας,καὶτετρααρχοῦντοςτῆςΓαλιλαίαςΗρώδου,ΦιλίππουδὲτοῦαδελφοῦαυτοῦτετρααρχοῦντοςτῆςΙτουραίαςκαὶΤραχωνίτιδοςχώρας,καὶΛυσανίουτῆςΑβιληνῆςτετρααρχοῦντος,
|
|
| 2 | while Annas and Caiaphas were high priests, the word of God came to John the son of Zacharias in the wilderness. |
|
επὶαρχιερέωςΆννακαὶΚαιάφα,εγένετορῆμαθεοῦεπὶΙωάννηντὸνΖαχαρίουυιὸνεντῆερήμω.
|
|
| 3 | And he went into all the region around the Jordan, preaching a baptism of repentance for the remission of sins, |
|
καὶῆλθενειςπᾶσαν[τὴν]περίχωροντοῦΙορδάνουκηρύσσωνβάπτισμαμετανοίαςειςάφεσιναμαρτιῶν,
|
|
| 4 | as it is written in the book of the words of Isaiah the prophet, saying: “The voice of one crying in the wilderness: ‘Prepare the way of the LORD; Make His paths straight. |
|
ωςγέγραπταιενβίβλωλόγωνΗσαίουτοῦπροφήτου,Φωνὴβοῶντοςεντῆερήμω,Ετοιμάσατετὴνοδὸνκυρίου,ευθείαςποιεῖτετὰςτρίβουςαυτοῦ.
|
|
| 5 | Every valley shall be filled And every mountain and hill brought low; The crooked places shall be made straight And the rough ways smooth; |
|
πᾶσαφάραγξπληρωθήσεταικαὶπᾶνόροςκαὶβουνὸςταπεινωθήσεται,καὶέσταιτὰσκολιὰειςευθείανκαὶαιτραχεῖαιειςοδοὺςλείας·
|
|
| 6 | And all flesh shall see the salvation of God.’ ” |
|
καὶόψεταιπᾶσασὰρξτὸσωτήριοντοῦθεοῦ.
|
|
| 7 | Then he said to the multitudes that came out to be baptized by him, “Brood of vipers! Who warned you to flee from the wrath to come? |
|
Έλεγενοῦντοῖςεκπορευομένοιςόχλοιςβαπτισθῆναιυπ᾿αυτοῦ,Γεννήματαεχιδνῶν,τίςυπέδειξενυμῖνφυγεῖναπὸτῆςμελλούσηςοργῆς;
|
|
| 8 | Therefore bear fruits worthy of repentance, and do not begin to say to yourselves, ‘We have Abraham as our father.’ For I say to you that God is able to raise up children to Abraham from these stones. |
|
ποιήσατεοῦνκαρποὺςαξίουςτῆςμετανοίας·καὶμὴάρξησθελέγεινενεαυτοῖς,ΠατέραέχομεντὸνΑβραάμ,λέγωγὰρυμῖνότιδύναταιοθεὸςεκτῶνλίθωντούτωνεγεῖραιτέκνατῶΑβραάμ.
|
|
| 9 | And even now the ax is laid to the root of the trees. Therefore every tree which does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire.” |
|
ήδηδὲκαὶηαξίνηπρὸςτὴνρίζαντῶνδένδρωνκεῖται·πᾶνοῦνδένδρονμὴποιοῦνκαρπὸνκαλὸνεκκόπτεταικαὶειςπῦρβάλλεται.
|
|
| 10 | So the people asked him, saying, “What shall we do then?” |
|
Καὶεπηρώτωναυτὸνοιόχλοιλέγοντες,Τίοῦνποιήσωμεν;
|
|
| 11 | He answered and said to them, “He who has two tunics, let him give to him who has none; and he who has food, let him do likewise.” |
|
αποκριθεὶςδὲέλεγεναυτοῖς,Οέχωνδύοχιτῶναςμεταδότωτῶμὴέχοντι,καὶοέχωνβρώματαομοίωςποιείτω.
|
|
| 12 | Then tax collectors also came to be baptized, and said to him, “Teacher, what shall we do?” |
|
ῆλθονδὲκαὶτελῶναιβαπτισθῆναικαὶεῖπανπρὸςαυτόν,Διδάσκαλε,τίποιήσωμεν;
|
|
| 13 | And he said to them, “Collect no more than what is appointed for you.” |
|
οδὲεῖπενπρὸςαυτούς,Μηδὲνπλέονπαρὰτὸδιατεταγμένονυμῖνπράσσετε.
|
|
| 14 | Likewise the soldiers asked him, saying, “And what shall we do?” So he said to them, “Do not intimidate anyone or accuse falsely, and be content with your wages.” |
|
επηρώτωνδὲαυτὸνκαὶστρατευόμενοιλέγοντες,Τίποιήσωμενκαὶημεῖς;καὶεῖπεναυτοῖς,Μηδέναδιασείσητεμηδὲσυκοφαντήσητε,καὶαρκεῖσθετοῖςοψωνίοιςυμῶν.
|
|
| 15 | Now as the people were in expectation, and all reasoned in their hearts about John, whether he was the Christ or not, |
|
ΠροσδοκῶντοςδὲτοῦλαοῦκαὶδιαλογιζομένωνπάντωνενταῖςκαρδίαιςαυτῶνπερὶτοῦΙωάννου,μήποτεαυτὸςείηοΧριστός,
|
|
| 16 | John answered, saying to all, “I indeed baptize you with water; but One mightier than I is coming, whose sandal strap I am not worthy to loose. He will baptize you with the Holy Spirit and fire. |
|
απεκρίνατολέγωνπᾶσινοΙωάννης,Εγὼμὲνύδατιβαπτίζωυμᾶς·έρχεταιδὲοισχυρότερόςμου,οῦουκειμὶικανὸςλῦσαιτὸνιμάντατῶνυποδημάτωναυτοῦ·αυτὸςυμᾶςβαπτίσειενπνεύματιαγίωκαὶπυρί·
|
|
| 17 | His winnowing fan is in His hand, and He will thoroughly clean out His threshing floor, and gather the wheat into His barn; but the chaff He will burn with unquenchable fire.” |
|
οῦτὸπτύονεντῆχειρὶαυτοῦδιακαθᾶραιτὴνάλωνααυτοῦκαὶσυναγαγεῖντὸνσῖτονειςτὴναποθήκηναυτοῦ,τὸδὲάχυρονκατακαύσειπυρὶασβέστω.
|
|
| 18 | And with many other exhortations he preached to the people. |
|
Πολλὰμὲνοῦνκαὶέτεραπαρακαλῶνευηγγελίζετοτὸνλαόν·
|
|
| 19 | But Herod the tetrarch, being rebuked by him concerning Herodias, his brother Philip’s wife, and for all the evils which Herod had done, |
|
οδὲΗρώδηςοτετραάρχης,ελεγχόμενοςυπ᾿αυτοῦπερὶΗρωδιάδοςτῆςγυναικὸςτοῦαδελφοῦαυτοῦκαὶπερὶπάντωνῶνεποίησενπονηρῶνοΗρώδης,
|
|
| 20 | also added this, above all, that he shut John up in prison. |
|
προσέθηκενκαὶτοῦτοεπὶπᾶσιν,κατέκλεισεντὸνΙωάννηνενφυλακῆ.
|
|
| 21 | When all the people were baptized, it came to pass that Jesus also was baptized; and while He prayed, the heaven was opened. |
|
ΕγένετοδὲεντῶβαπτισθῆναιάπαντατὸνλαὸνκαὶΙησοῦβαπτισθέντοςκαὶπροσευχομένουανεωχθῆναιτὸνουρανὸν
|
|
| 22 | And the Holy Spirit descended in bodily form like a dove upon Him, and a voice came from heaven which said, “You are My beloved Son; in You I am well pleased.” |
|
καὶκαταβῆναιτὸπνεῦματὸάγιονσωματικῶείδειωςπεριστερὰνεπ᾿αυτόν,καὶφωνὴνεξουρανοῦγενέσθαι,Σὺεῖουιόςμουοαγαπητός,ενσοὶευδόκησα.
|
|
| 23 | Now Jesus Himself began His ministry at about thirty years of age, being (as was supposed) the son of Joseph, the son of Heli, |
