Bible Mutal (Kosraean)
1In those days came John the Baptist, preaching in the wilderness of Judaea,
1In pacl sac John Baptais el tuku nu in acn mwesis in Judea ac mutawauk in luti we.
2And saying, Repent ye: for the kingdom of heaven is at hand.
2El fahk, “Forla liki ma koluk lowos, tuh Tokosrai lun kusrao apkuranme!”
3For this is he that was spoken of by the prophet Esaias, saying, The voice of one crying in the wilderness, Prepare ye the way of the Lord, make his paths straight.
3John pa mwet se mwet palu Isaiah el tuh kaskaskin ac fahk, “Oasr sie pusra su wowoyak yen mwesis ac fahk, ‘Akoela soko inkanek nu sin Leum; Aksuwosyela elan fahsr kac!’”
4And the same John had his raiment of camel’s hair, and a leathern girdle about his loins; and his meat was locusts and wild honey.
4Nuknuk lal John uh orekla ke unen camel, ac infulwal losyuki ke mwe lohl orek ke kulun kosro, ac mwe mongo nal pa locust ac honey inima.
5Then went out to him Jerusalem, and all Judaea, and all the region round about Jordan,
5Mwet uh tuku nu yorol liki acn Jerusalem, liki acn Judea nufon, ac liki acn nukewa ma apkuran nu Infacl Jordan.
6And were baptized of him in Jordan, confessing their sins.
6Elos fahkak ma koluk lalos, ac el baptaiselosla ke Infacl Jordan.
7¶ But when he saw many of the Pharisees and Sadducees come to his baptism, he said unto them, O generation of vipers, who hath warned you to flee from the wrath to come?
7Ke John el liye mwet Pharisee ac mwet Sadducee puspis tuku nu yorol in tuh baptaisla, el fahk nu selos, “Kowos wet pwasin! Su fahk mu kowos ac ku in kaingkunla mwe keok ma God El akoo in oru?
8Bring forth therefore fruits meet for repentance:
8Kowos in oru ma ac ku in akkalemye lah pwaye kowos forla liki ma koluk lowos an.
9And think not to say within yourselves, We have Abraham to our father: for I say unto you, that God is able of these stones to raise up children unto Abraham.
9Ac nimet nunku mu kowos ac ku in kaingkunla mwe keok ke kowos fahk mu Abraham pa papa matu tumowos uh. Nga fahk nu suwos lah God El ku na in eis eot inge ac ekulla nu ke tulik natul Abraham!
10And now also the axe is laid unto the root of the trees: therefore every tree which bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire.
10Tuhla uh akola tari in pakiya sak uh nwe ke oka uh. Sak nukewa ma tia oswe fahko wo, ac fah pakpuki ac sisila nu in e uh.
11I indeed baptize you with water unto repentance: but he that cometh after me is mightier than I, whose shoes I am not worthy to bear: he shall baptize you with the Holy Ghost, and with fire:
11Nga baptaisi kowos ke kof, in akkalemye lah kowos auliyak, tusruktu el su ac tuku tukuk el ac fah baptaisi kowos ke Ngun Mutal ac ke e. Arulana yohk sripal likiyu; finne faluk lal uh nga kupansuwol in us.
12Whose fan is in his hand, and he will throughly purge his floor, and gather his wheat into the garner; but he will burn up the chaff with unquenchable fire.
12Fork in sraclik lal oasr inpaol, ac el akola in sraclik fiten wheat liki kulun wheat. El ac fah orani wheat lal nu in nien filma lal, tusruk kulun wheat uh ac fah isisyak in sie e su ac fah tiana kunla.”
13¶ Then cometh Jesus from Galilee to Jordan unto John, to be baptized of him.
13In pacl sac Jesus el tuku Galilee me nu yorol John ke Infacl Jordan tuh John elan baptaisella.
14But John forbad him, saying, I have need to be baptized of thee, and comest thou to me?
14Tusruktu John el srike in oru Jesus elan ekulla nunkal. John el fahk, “Fal in nga pa baptaisla sum uh, a kom tuku nu yuruk!”
15And Jesus answering said unto him, Suffer it to be so now: for thus it becometh us to fulfil all righteousness. Then he suffered him.
15Tuh Jesus El fahk, “Pwaye, tuh ke pacl se inge oru oana nga fahk. Ke lumah se inge kut ac akfalye ma nukewa ma God El enenu in orekla uh.” Ouinge John el insese nu kac.
16And Jesus, when he was baptized, went up straightway out of the water: and, lo, the heavens were opened unto him, and he saw the Spirit of God descending like a dove, and lighting upon him:
16Tukunna Jesus El baptaisla ah, el otyak liki kof uh. Na ikakla acn inkusrao nu sel ac el liye Ngun lun God oatume oana sie wuleoa ac tuhwi facl.
17And lo a voice from heaven, saying, This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.
17Na sie pusra inkusrao me fahk, “El inge Wen kulo nutik, su nga insewowo kacl.”
