World English Bible
1Tanangupini ditjini Johannes multibanietja wokarana wonti ja Judaia pitarani jaura jinkina wonti,
1In those days, John the Baptizer came, preaching in the wilderness of Judea, saying,
2Ja jatana wonti: „Madlentjandru karitjianau, ngangau pariwilpaia milila karakara nganai.“
2“Repent, for the Kingdom of Heaven is at hand!”
3Naupini nau nganai, nunkangundru Jesaiasali Prophetali kaukaubana wonti; „Karkanietjaia ngaiala pitarani parai: Kaparaia palto ngankinganimai, ja tidna‐palto nunkani talku ngankanimai.“
3For this is he who was spoken of by Isaiah the prophet, saying, “The voice of one crying in the wilderness, make the way of the Lord ready! Make his paths straight!”
4Johannili kati Kameel njurdu ja dala mantamanta kapani nunkanani ngamalkana wonti, ja buka nunkani palaparu ja pitjambu nganana wonti.
4Now John himself wore clothing made of camel’s hair with a leather belt around his waist. His food was locusts and wild honey.
5Jendranguta nunkangu dunkana wonti Jesusalemala ja Judaiala pratjaterina ja Jordanala pratjaterina.
5Then people from Jerusalem, all of Judea, and all the region around the Jordan went out to him.
6Ja nulu tanana multibana wonti Jordan kaiarani, ja tanali madlentji tanani talku dikana wonti.
6They were baptized by him in the Jordan, confessing their sins.
7Nulu Pharisaiala ja Sadduzaiala marapu nunkani multibanilaia wokaranani najina, nau tanangu jatana wonti: „Wiparaia kuparu worajai! warlenulu jurangu wondrana warai japa mindrinanto tirini nunkanani, nau wokarala nganai?“
7But when he saw many of the Pharisees and Sadducees coming for his baptism, he said to them, “You offspring of vipers, who warned you to flee from the wrath to come?
8Madlentjandru karitjinaia tandra talku punkibanau!
8Therefore produce fruit worthy of repentance!
9Ja wata munta ngundraterianau: „Ngaiana Abraham ngaperi ngaianani ngamalkai“; ngangau ngani jurangu jatai: „Goda ngurunguru nganai, tanangupini mardandru kupa jiritjibala Abrahamangu.“
9Don’t think to yourselves, ‘We have Abraham for our father,’ for I tell you that God is able to raise up children to Abraham from these stones.
10Kalara matja pita kaparani parai; Pita pratjana, wata tandra ngumu punkibanani, wokaribala nganai ja turuni worala nganai.
10Even now the ax lies at the root of the trees. Therefore every tree that doesn’t produce good fruit is cut down, and cast into the fire.
11Ngato jurana ngapali multibai madlentjandru karitjimalkala; ngakangu ngadani kulno wokarala nganai, Nau morla ngurunguru nganai ngakangu, nunkangu ngani wata talku nganai, tidnaputa nunkani padakijiribala, Nulu jurana multibala nganai Jaolali kulukirieli ja turujeli.
11“I indeed baptize you in water for repentance, but he who comes after me is mightier than I, whose sandals I am not worthy to carry. He will baptize you in the Holy Spirit.
12Marani nunkanani pirra nunkani parai, ja Nulu jiraua nunkani darpala nganai, ja buka tandra nunkani kampani pungaia mapala nganai, ja ngurdi Nulu japila nganai turujeli, nau wata paliai. (Ngantjani‐jaura Jesuja multibanila ditjini.)
12His winnowing fork is in his hand, and he will thoroughly cleanse his threshing floor. He will gather his wheat into the barn, but the chaff he will burn up with unquenchable fire.”
13Ngadani Jesus Galilaiandru Jordan kaiarani Johanningu wokarana wonti, nunkangundru multibanila manila.
13Then Jesus came from Galilee to the Jordan to John, to be baptized by him.
14Johannili nina daudauana wonti ja jatana wonti: „Ngato jinkangundru multibanila maninanto, ja jidni ngakangu wokarai“?
14But John would have hindered him, saying, “I need to be baptized by you, and you come to me?”
15Jesujeli kalabana wonti ja nunkangu jatana wonti: „Karari jenia manuni kurau, ngangau jeruja talku nganai ngaldrangu, talkula pratjana morlalu kurala.“ Ngadani nulu nunkangu manuni kurana wonti.
15But Jesus, answering, said to him, “Allow it now, for this is the fitting way for us to fulfill all righteousness.” Then he allowed him.
16Jesujeli matja multibanila manina, Nau nurujeli ngapandru dunkana tarana wonti; ja mai, pariwilpa piririna wonti, ja nulu najina wonti Godaia Jaola ngarinani mulapara jeribaka wokarala nunkangu.
16Jesus, when he was baptized, went up directly from the water: and behold, the heavens were opened to him. He saw the Spirit of God descending as a dove, and coming on him.
17Ja mai! Ngaiala pariwilpandru jatana wonti: „Naupini Ngatamura ngantjalu ngakani nganai, nunkangu ngani murlali nganai.“
17Behold, a voice out of the heavens said, “This is my beloved Son, with whom I am well pleased.”
