John the Baptist Prepares the Way

It was now the fifteenth year of the reign of Tiberius, the Roman emperor. Pontius Pilate was governor over Judea; Herod Antipas was rulera over Galilee; his brother Philip was rulerb over Iturea and Traconitis; Lysanias was ruler over Abilene.

1

В пятнадцатый год правления кесаря Тиберия, когда Иудеей управлял Понтий Пилат, Ирод был правителем Галилеи, его брат Филипп — правителем Итуреи и Трахонитской области,27 Лисаний — правителем Авилинеи,

2

Annas and Caiaphas were the high priests. At this time a message from God came to John son of Zechariah, who was living in the wilderness.

2

а первосвященниками были Анна и Кайафа,28 слово Бога было к Иоанну, сыну Захарии, в пустыне.

3

Then John went from place to place on both sides of the Jordan River, preaching that people should be baptized to show that they had repented of their sins and turned to God to be forgiven.

3

После этого Иоанн пошел по всем областям, прилегающим к Иордану, и проповедовал крещение в знак покаяния для прощения грехов.

4

Isaiah had spoken of John when he said,
“He is a voice shouting in the wilderness,
‘Prepare the way for the LORD’s coming!
Clear the road for him!

4

Как написано в книге пророка Исаии:

«Голос раздается в пустыне:
„Приготовьте путь Господу,
сделайте прямыми дороги Его!

5

The valleys will be filled,
and the mountains and hills made level.
The curves will be straightened,
and the rough places made smooth.

5

Всякий овраг пусть будет засыпан,
а всякая гора и холм — опустятся;
извилистые пути пусть станут прямыми,
и неровные — пусть станут ровными,

6

And then all people will see
the salvation sent from God.’”c

6

чтобы все человечество увидело Божье спасение“».29

7

When the crowds came to John for baptism, he said, “You brood of snakes! Who warned you to flee the coming wrath?

7

Иоанн говорил толпам, которые приходили принять крещение от него:
— Вы, змеиное отродье! Кто предупредил вас, чтобы вы бежали от грядущего гнева?

8

Prove by the way you live that you have repented of your sins and turned to God. Don’t just say to each other, ‘We’re safe, for we are descendants of Abraham.’ That means nothing, for I tell you, God can create children of Abraham from these very stones.

8

Делами докажите искренность вашего покаяния. Не думайте говорить в себе: «Наш отец Авраам!» Говорю вам, что Бог может и из этих камней сотворить детей Аврааму.

9

Even now the ax of God’s judgment is poised, ready to sever the roots of the trees. Yes, every tree that does not produce good fruit will be chopped down and thrown into the fire.”

9

Уже и топор лежит у корня деревьев, и всякое дерево, не приносящее хорошего плода, будет срублено и брошено в огонь.

10

The crowds asked, “What should we do?”

10

— Что же нам делать? — спрашивал народ.

11

John replied, “If you have two shirts, give one to the poor. If you have food, share it with those who are hungry.”

11

Иоанн отвечал:
— Тот, у кого две рубахи, пусть даст одну тому, у кого нет вообще, и тот, у кого есть еда, пусть сделает то же самое.

12

Even corrupt tax collectors came to be baptized and asked, “Teacher, what should we do?”

12

Сборщики налогов тоже приходили принять крещение.
— Учитель, — спрашивали они, — что нам делать?

13

He replied, “Collect no more taxes than the government requires.”

13

— Не требуйте с людей больше, чем положено, — говорил он им.

14

“What should we do?” asked some soldiers.
John replied, “Don’t extort money or make false accusations. And be content with your pay.”

14

Спрашивали его и солдаты:
— А что делать нам?
Иоанн ответил:
— Не вымогайте у людей денег силой и угрозами, никого ложно не обвиняйте и довольствуйтесь своим жалованьем.

15

Everyone was expecting the Messiah to come soon, and they were eager to know whether John might be the Messiah.

15

Народ был в напряженном ожидании, и всех интересовало, не Иоанн ли Христос.

16

John answered their questions by saying, “I baptize you withd water; but someone is coming soon who is greater than I am — so much greater that I’m not even worthy to be his slave and untie the straps of his sandals. He will baptize you with the Holy Spirit and with fire.e

16

На это Иоанн отвечал им всем:
— Я крещу вас водой, но придет Тот, Кто могущественнее меня, я даже не достоин развязать ремни Его сандалий. Он будет крестить вас Святым Духом и огнем.

17

He is ready to separate the chaff from the wheat with his winnowing fork. Then he will clean up the threshing area, gathering the wheat into his barn but burning the chaff with never-ending fire.”

17

У Него в руках лопата, чтобы провеять зерно на току; пшеницу Он соберет в Свое хранилище, а мякину сожжет в неугасимом огне.

18

John used many such warnings as he announced the Good News to the people.

18

И много другого говорил Иоанн, убеждая народ и возвещая ему Радостную Весть.

19

John also publicly criticized Herod Antipas, the ruler of Galilee,f for marrying Herodias, his brother’s wife, and for many other wrongs he had done.

19

Когда же он стал упрекать правителя Ирода за женитьбу на Иродиаде, жене его брата, и за все другое зло, которое тот совершил,

20

So Herod put John in prison, adding this sin to his many others.

20

Ирод ко всему злу добавил еще одно, заключив Иоанна в темницу.

21

The Baptism of Jesus

One day when the crowds were being baptized, Jesus himself was baptized. As he was praying, the heavens opened,

21

Когда весь народ крестился, был крещен и Иисус, и когда после крещения Он молился, раскрылись небеса,

22

and the Holy Spirit, in bodily form, descended on him like a dove. And a voice from heaven said, “You are my dearly loved Son, and you bring me great joy.g”

22

и на Него спустился Святой Дух в телесном виде, в образе голубя. И с небес прозвучал голос:
— Ты Мой любимый Сын! В Тебе Моя радость!
