1In diebus autem illis venit Joannes Baptista prædicans in deserto Judææ,
1ʻI he ngaahi ʻaho ko ia naʻe haʻu ʻa Sione ko e Papitaiso, ʻo malanga ʻi he toafa ʻo Siutea,
2et dicens: Pœnitentiam agite: appropinquavit enim regnum cælorum.
2ʻo pehē, “Mou fakatomala: he ʻoku ofi ʻae puleʻanga ʻoe langi.”
3Hic est enim, qui dictus est per Isaiam prophetam dicentem: [Vox clamantis in deserto: Parate viam Domini; rectas facite semitas ejus.]
3He ko eni ia naʻe lea ki ai ʻae palōfita ko ʻIsaia, ʻo pehē, “Ko e leʻo ʻoe tokotaha ʻoku kalanga ʻi he toafa, ‘Mou teuteu ʻae hala ʻoe ʻEiki, fakatonutonu hono ngaahi ʻaluʻanga.’”
4Ipse autem Joannes habebat vestimentum de pilis camelorum, et zonam pelliceam circa lumbos suos: esca autem ejus erat locustæ, et mel silvestre.
4Pea naʻe kofu ʻae Sione ko ia ʻaki ʻae fulufuluʻi kāmeli, mo e noʻo kiliʻi manu ʻi hono noʻotanga vala; pea ko ʻene meʻakai, ko e heʻe mo e meʻa huʻamelie ʻoe vao.
5Tunc exibat ad eum Jerosolyma, et omnis Judæa, et omnis regio circa Jordanem;
5Pea naʻe toki ʻalu kiate ia ʻa Selūsalema, mo Siutea kotoa pē, mo e potu fonua kotoa pē naʻe tuʻu ofi ki Sioatani,
6et baptizabantur ab eo in Jordane, confitentes peccata sua.
6Ke papitaiso ʻiate ia ʻi Sioatani, ʻo vete ʻenau ngaahi angahala.
7Videns autem multos pharisæorum, et sadducæorum, venientes ad baptismum suum, dixit eis: Progenies viperarum, quis demonstravit vobis fugere a ventura ira?
7¶ Ka ʻi heʻene mamata kuo haʻu ʻae tokolahi ʻoe Fālesi mo e Sātusi ki heʻene papitaiso, naʻe pehē ʻe ia kiate kinautolu, “ʻAe fānau ʻae ngata fekai, ko hai naʻa ne valoki ʻakimoutolu ke puna mei he houhau ʻe haʻu?
8Facite ergo fructum dignum pœnitentiæ.
8Ko ia mou fakahā ʻae ngaahi fua ʻoku ngali mo e fakatomala:
9Et ne velitis dicere intra vos: Patrem habemus Abraham. Dico enim vobis quoniam potens est Deus de lapidibus istis suscitare filios Abrahæ.
9Pea ʻoua te mou pehē ʻi homou loto, ‘Ko ʻemau tamai ʻa ʻEpalahame:’ he ʻoku ou tala atu kiate kimoutolu, ʻoku faʻa fai ʻe he ʻOtua ke fakatupu ʻi he ngaahi maka ni ʻae fānau kia ʻEpalahame.
10Jam enim securis ad radicem arborum posita est. Omnis ergo arbor, quæ non facit fructum bonum, excidetur, et in ignem mittetur.
10Pea ko eni, kuo tuku ʻae toki ki he tefito ʻoe ngaahi ʻakau: ko ia, ko e ʻakau kotoa pē ʻoku ʻikai tupu ai ʻae fua lelei, ʻe tā hifo ia, pea laku ki he afi.
11Ego quidem baptizo vos in aqua in pœnitentiam: qui autem post me venturus est, fortior me est, cujus non sum dignus calceamenta portare: ipse vos baptizabit in Spiritu Sancto, et igni.
11Ko e moʻoni ʻoku ou papitaiso ʻakimoutolu ʻaki ʻae vai ki he fakatomala: ka ko ia ʻoku muimui ʻiate au ʻoku lahi ia ʻiate au, ʻoku ʻikai taau mo au ke u toʻo hono topuvaʻe: pea ʻe papitaiso ʻe ia ʻakimoutolu ʻaki ʻae Laumālie Māʻoniʻoni mo e afi.
12Cujus ventilabrum in manu sua: et permundabit aream suam: et congregabit triticum suum in horreum, paleas autem comburet igni inextinguibili.
12ʻOku ʻi hono nima ʻa hono ī, pea te ne fakamaʻa ʻaupito hono hahaʻanga, ʻo tānaki ʻa hono uite ki he feleoko; ka ʻe tutu ʻe ia ʻae kafukafu ʻaki ʻae afi taʻemate.”
13Tunc venit Jesus a Galilæa in Jordanem ad Joannem, ut baptizaretur ab eo.
13¶ Pea toki haʻu ʻa Sisu mei Kaleli ki Sioatani kia Sione, ke papitaiso ʻiate ia.
14Joannes autem prohibebat eum, dicens: Ego a te debeo baptizari, et tu venis ad me?
14Ka naʻe taʻofi ia ʻe Sione, ʻo pehē, “ʻOku ngali mo au ke u papitaiso ʻiate koe, pea ʻoku ke haʻu kiate au?”
15Respondens autem Jesus, dixit ei: Sine modo: sic enim decet nos implere omnem justitiam. Tunc dimisit eum.
15Pea lea ʻa Sisu kiate ia, ʻo pehēange, “Tuku ke fai eni: he ʻoku taau mo kitautolu ke fai ki he māʻoniʻoni kotoa pē.” Pea ne toki tuku ke fai ia.
16Baptizatus autem Jesus, confestim ascendit de aqua, et ecce aperti sunt ei cæli: et vidit Spiritum Dei descendentem sicut columbam, et venientem super se.
16Pea kuo papitaiso ʻa Sisu, naʻe ʻalu hake leva ia mei he vai; pea vakai, kuo mavaeua ʻae langi kiate ia, pea mamata ia ki he Laumālie ʻoe ʻOtua ʻoku maliu hifo ʻo hangē ko e lupe, ʻo tuʻu mai kiate ia:
17Et ecce vox de cælis dicens: Hic est Filius meus dilectus, in quo mihi complacui.
17Pea ʻiloange, ko e leʻo mei he langi, naʻe pehē, “Ko hoku ʻAlo ʻofaʻanga eni, ʻaia ʻoku ou fiemālie lahi ai.”
