Luke 3

DOUAI-RHEIMS	SMITH VAN DYKE
1 Now in the fifteenth year of the reign of Tiberius Caesar, Pontius Pilate being governor of Judea, and Herod being tetrarch of Galilee, and Philip his brother tetrarch of Iturea, and the country of Trachonitis, and Lysanias tetrarch of Abilina;	1 وفي السنة الخامسة عشر من سلطنة طيباريوس قيصر اذ كان بيلاطس البنطي واليا على اليهودية وهيرودس رئيس ربع على الجليل وفيلبس اخوه رئيس ربع على ايطورية وكورة تراخونيتس وليسانيوس رئيس ربع على الابلية
2 Under the high priests Annas and Caiphas; the word of the Lord was made unto John, the son of Zachary, in the desert.	2 في ايام رئيس الكهنة حنان وقيافا كانت كلمة الله على يوحنا بن زكريا في البرية.
3 And he came into all the country about the Jordan, preaching the baptism of penance for the remission of sins;	3 فجاء الى جميع الكورة المحيطة بالاردن يكرز بمعمودية التوبة لمغفرة الخطايا.
4 As it was written in the book of the sayings of Isaias the prophet: A voice of one crying in the wilderness: Prepare ye the way of the Lord, make straight his paths.	4 كما هو مكتوب في سفر اقوال اشعياء النبي القائل صوت صارخ في البرية أعدّوا طريق الرب اصنعوا سبله مستقيمة.
5 Every valley shall be filled; and every mountain and hill shall be brought low; and the crooked shall be made straight; and the rough ways plain;	5 كل واد يمتلئ وكل جبل واكمة ينخفض وتصير المعوجات مستقيمة والشعاب طرقا سهلة.
6 And all flesh shall see the salvation of God.	6 ويبصر كل بشر خلاص الله
7 He said therefore to the multitudes that went forth to be baptized by him: Ye offspring of vipers, who hath shewed you to flee from the wrath to come?	7 وكان يقول للجموع الذين خرجوا ليعتمدوا منه يا اولاد الافاعي من اراكم ان تهربوا من الغضب الآتي.
8 Bring forth therefore fruits worthy of penance; and do not begin to say, We have Abraham for our father. For I say unto you, that God is able of these stones to raise up children to Abraham.	8 فاصنعوا اثمارا تليق بالتوبة. ولا تبتدئوا تقولون في انفسكم لنا ابراهيم ابا. لاني اقول لكم ان الله قادر ان يقيم من هذه الحجارة اولادا لابراهيم.
9 For now the axe is laid to the root of the trees. Every tree therefore that bringeth not forth good fruit, shall be cut down and cast into the fire.	9 والآن قد وضعت الفاس على اصل الشجر. فكل شجرة لا تصنع ثمرا جيدا تقطع وتلقى في النار.
10 And the people asked him, saying: What then shall we do?	10 وسأله الجموع قائلين فماذا نفعل.
11 And he answering, said to them: He that hath two coats, let him give to him that hath none; and he that hath meat, let him do in like manner.	11 فاجاب وقال لهم من له ثوبان فليعط من ليس له ومن له طعام فليفعل هكذا.
12 And the publicans also came to be baptized, and said to him: Master, what shall we do?	12 وجاء عشارون ايضا ليعتمدوا فقالوا له يا معلّم ماذا نفعل.
13 But he said to them: Do nothing more than that which is appointed you.	13 فقال لهم لا تستوفوا اكثر مما فرض لكم.
14 And the soldiers also asked him, saying: And what shall we do? And he said to them: Do violence to no man; neither calumniate any man; and be content with your pay.	14 وسأله جنديون ايضا قائلين وماذا نفعل نحن. فقال لهم لا تظلموا احدا ولا تشوا باحد واكتفوا بعلائفكم
15 And as the people were of opinion, and all were thinking in their hearts of John, that perhaps he might be the Christ;	15 واذ كان الشعب ينتظر والجميع يفكرون في قلوبهم عن يوحنا لعله المسيح
16 John answered, saying unto all: I indeed baptize you with water; but there shall come one mightier that I, the latchet of whose shoes I am not worthy to loose: he shall baptize you with the Holy Ghost, and with fire:	16 اجاب يوحنا الجميع قائلا انا اعمدكم بماء ولكن يأتي من هو اقوى مني الذي لست اهلا ان احل سيور حذائه. هو سيعمدكم بالروح القدس ونار.
17 Whose fan is in his hand, and he will purge his floor, and will gather the wheat into his barn; but the chaff he will burn with unquenchable fire.	17 الذي رفشه في يده وسينقي بيدره ويجمع القمح الى مخزنه. واما التبن فيحرقه بنار لا تطفأ.
18 And many other things exhorting, did he preach to the people.	18 وباشياء أخر كثيرة كان يعظ الشعب ويبشرهم.
19 But Herod the tetrarch, when he was reproved by him for Herodias, his brother's wife, and for all the evils which Herod had done;	19 اما هيرودس رئيس الربع فاذ توبخ منه لسبب هيروديا امرأة فيلبّس اخيه ولسبب جميع الشرور التي كان هيرودس يفعلها
20 He added this also above all, and shut up John in prison.	20 زاد هذا ايضا على الجميع انه حبس يوحنا في السجن
21 Now it came to pass, when all the people were baptized, that Jesus also being baptized and praying, heaven was opened;	21 ولما اعتمد جميع الشعب اعتمد يسوع ايضا. واذ كان يصلّي انفتحت السماء
22 And the Holy Ghost descended in a bodily shape, as a dove upon him; and a voice came from heaven: Thou art my beloved Son; in thee I am well pleased.	22 ونزل عليه الروح القدس بهيئة جسمية مثل حمامة وكان صوت من السماء قائلا انت ابني الحبيب بك سررت
23 And Jesus himself was beginning about the age of thirty years; being (as it was supposed) the son of Joseph, who was of Heli, who was of Mathat,	23 ولما ابتدأ يسوع كان له نحو ثلاثين سنة وهو على ما كان يظن ابن يوسف بن هالي
