| 1 | Now in the fifteenth year of the emperorship of Tiberios Caesar, Pontios Pilatos being governor of Judaea, and Herodas being Tetrarch of Galilaia, and Philippos his brother being Tetrarch of Itouraia and the land of Trachonitis, and Lusanios being Tetrarch of Abilene, |
| 2 | in the high priesthood of Hannas and Kaïaphas, the Word of Yahweh had come upon Iohannes the son of Zacharias in the wilderness. |
| 3 | And he had gone into all the region of the Jordan proclaiming an immersion of repentance for a remission of errors, |
| 4 | as it is written in the book of the sayings of Isaiah the prophet: "A voice crying in the wilderness: prepare the way of the Prince, make straight His paths! |
| 5 | Every ravine shall be filled, and every mountain and hill shall be made low, and the crooked paths shall be into straight ones, and the rough ways into smooth roads. |
| 6 | And all flesh shall see the salvation of Yahweh!" |
| 7 | Then he said to a crowd coming out to be immersed by him: "Race of vipers! Who warned you to flee from the coming wrath? |
| 8 | You should really make fruits worthy of repentance, and do not begin by saying among yourselves 'We have Abraham for a father'. For I say to you that Yahweh is able to raise up children for Abraham from these stones! |
| 9 | But already even the axe is laid to the root of the trees: surely any tree not producing good fruit is cut down and cast into the fire!" |
| 10 | Then the crowd questioned him, saying "So what should we do?" |
| 11 | And replying he said to them: "He having two shirts must share with he who has not, and he having food must do likewise." |
| 12 | Then also the tax-collectors came to be immersed, and they said to him "Teacher, what should we do?" |
| 13 | And he said to them "Do not exact any more than that which is appointed to you." |
| 14 | So those who were soldiers also asked him, saying: "And what should we do?" And he said to them: "You should not cause any agitation, nor make false accusations, and be satisfied with your provisions". |
| 15 | And with the people supposing, and all reasoning in their hearts concerning Iohannes, that perhaps he may be the Christ, |
| 16 | Iohannes replied saying to all: "Indeed I immerse you in water, but He comes, who is more powerful than me, of whom I am not worthy to loosen the straps of His sandals. He shall immerse you in the Holy Spirit, and in fire! |
| 17 | Of whom the winnowing fan is in His hand, to purge His threshing-floor, and to gather together the wheat into His storehouse, but the chaff He shall burn with unquenchable fire." |
| 18 | So then also many other things exhorting he had announced to the people. |
| 19 | But Herodas the Tetrarch, having been reproved by him concerning Herodia the wife of his brother, and concerning all of the evil things which Herodas had done, |
| 20 | added even this upon all: he had shut Iohannes up in prison. |
| 21 | Then it happened as all the people were being immersed, Yahshua also was being immersed and praying, the heaven opened |
| 22 | and he had seen the Holy Spirit descending bodily as a dove upon Him, and a voice coming from heaven: "You are My beloved Son. In You I am satisfied." |
| 23 | And this was Yahshua, beginning at about thirty years old, being a son, as was believed, of Ioseph, the son of Eli, |
| 24 | the son of Maththat, the son of Levi, the son of Melchi, the son of Iannai, the son of Ioseph, |
| 25 | the son of Mattathias, the son of Amos, the son of Nahoum, the son of Hesli, the son of Naggai, |
| 26 | the son of Maäth, the son of Mattathias, the son of Semeïn, the son of Iosach, the son of Ioda, |
| 27 | the son of Iohanan, the son of Resa, the son of Zorobabel, the son of Salathiel, the son of Neri, |
| 28 | the son of Melchi, the son of Addi, the son of Kosam, the son of Elmadam, the son of Er, |
| 29 | the son of Iasous, the son of Eliezer, the son of Iorim, the son of Maththat, the son of Levi, |
| 30 | the son of Sumeon, the son of Iouda, the son of Ioseph, the son of Ionam, the son of Eliakim, |
| 31 | the son of Melea, the son of Menna, the son of Mattatha, the son of Natham, the son of David, |
| 32 | the son of Iessai, the son of Iobel, the son of Boos, the son of Sala, the son of Nahasson, |
| 33 | the son of Adam, the son of Admin, the son of Arni, the son of Hesrom, the son of Phares, the son of Iouda, |
| 34 | the son of Jakob, the son of Isaak, the son of Abraham, the son of Thara, the son of Nachor, |
| 35 | the son of Serouch, the son of Ragau, the son of Phalek, the son of Eber, the son of Sala, |
| 36 | the son of Kainam, the son of Arphaxad, the son of Sem, the son of Noah, the son of Lamech, |
| 37 | the son of Mathousala, the son of Henoch, the son of Iaret, the son of Maleleal, the son of Kainam, |
| 38 | the son of Enos, the son of Seth, the son of Adam, the son of Yahweh. |
