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

У пятнайцятий же рік правлення Тиверия кесаря, як був ігемоном Понтийський Пилат в Юдеї, а четверовластником у Галилеї Ірод, Филип же, брат його, четверовластником в Ітуреї і Трахонській землї, а Лисаний четверовластником в Авилинї,

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

за архиєреїв Анни та Каяфи, стало ся слово Боже до Йоана, Захаріїного сина, у пустинї.

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

І ходив він по всїй околицї Йорданській, проповідуючи хрещеннє покаяння на прощеннє гріхів,

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

як писано в книзї словес Ісаїї пророка, глаголючого: Голос покликуючого в пустинї: Приготовте дорогу Господню, правими робіть стежки Його.

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

Всяка долина нехай заповнить ся, і всяка гора і горб принизить ся, і крива нехай буде права, й груднисті нехай будуть дорогами рівними;

6

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

6

і побачить усяке тїло спасеннє Боже.

7

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

7

Говорив тодї до людей, що вийшли охреститись від него: Кодло гадюче, хто остеріг вас, щоб утїкали від настигаючого гнїва?

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

Принесїть же овощ достойний покаяння, і не починайте казати самі собі: В нас отець Авраам; глаголю бо вам: Що зможе Бог з каміння сього підняти дїтей Авраамові.

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

Вже ж і сокира коло кореня дерева лежить; тим кожне дерево, що не дає доброго овощу, зрубують та й в огонь кидають.

10

The crowds asked, “What should we do?”

10

І питав його народ, кажучи: Що ж оце робити мем?

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

Озвав ся ж і каже їм: Хто має дві одежинї, нехай надїлить немаючого; й хто має харч, нехай так само робить.

12

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

12

Прийшли ж і митники хреститись, і промовили до него: Учителю, що нам робити?

13

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

13

Він же каже до них: Нїчого більш над те, що звелено вам, не вимагайте.

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

Питали ж його й воїни, кажучи: А нам що робити? І рече до них: Нїкому не робіть насилля, анї обвинувачуйте криво, і вдовольняйтесь платою вашою.

15

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

15

Як же були в непевностї люде, і всї говорили в серцї своїм про Йоана, чи не Христос він,

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

озвавсь Йоан до всїх, глаголючи: Я водою хрещу вас; ійде ж потужнїщий від мене, котрому недостоєн я розвязати ременя обувя Його: Той хрестити ме вас Духом сьвятим і 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

котрого лопата в руцї Його, й перечистить тік свій, і збере пшеницю в клуню свою, а полову спалить огнем невгасаючим.

18

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

18

І багато иншого, навчаючи, благовіствував людям.

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

Ірод же четверовластник, докорений від него за Іродияду, жінку Филипа, брата свого, і за все, що коїв лихого Ірод,

20

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

20

додав ще й се до всього, й запер Йоана в темницї.

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

Стало ж ся, як хрестились усї люде й Ісус хрестив ся та молив ся, відчинилось небо,

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

і злинув Дух сьвятий, у тїлесному видї, як голуб, на Него, й голос із неба роздав ся, глаголючи: Ти єси Син мій любий, тебе вподобав я.
