Matius 3:1-12; Markus 1:1-8; Yohanes 1:19-28
1 Kaisar Tiberius nfareta Roma varat vutu rahin ifaꞌat teran roak. Naꞌut inyai Pontius Pilatus notu gubernur naꞌa propinsi Yudea. Herodes notu raja ma nfareta naꞌa propinsi Galilea, ovu Herodes aꞌan i Filipus, notu raja ma nfareta naꞌa propinsi Iturea ovu Trakhonitis. Lisanias notu raja ma nfareta vali naꞌa propinsi Abilene.* 2 Naꞌut inyai, na Hanas ovu Kayafas reluk Yahudi rira Mela Falurut Ilaꞌa ma rkarya verin Ubu. Naꞌa varat yai vali, na Ubu nangrihi verin Yohanes naꞌa wan lean vu dawan. Yohanes ini yaman a verin Zakharia. 3 Ba Yohanes nti munuk wan ovi rfaseri oar Yordan a, ovu nafwak ma vain a dawan urun al nfamalik Ubu Ni Ivar a ne, “Myahil kikyai tali bira salasilan ra, ovu myala tenabira ra ma ti rbaptis mia, boma Ubu veka naꞌi vatuk bira salasilan ra.”
4 Wean i nabi Yesaya ntulis naꞌa ni kitab a ne,
“Tamata isa nafwak naꞌa wan lean vu dawan ne, ‘Misusan lingaꞌan verin Duilaꞌa, ovu fyamalola lingaꞌan a verin Ia.†
5 Lanun ovi wol manesan ra, myotu ma manesan, ovu myotu vali ma sakvuar ovu vuar ra manesan, ovu vali lingaꞌan ovi rkiluk ra, fyamalola ira. Lanun i suta-rata ra, myotu vali ma manesan.
6 Ba tamata ovi rnaꞌa lanit ivavan a munuk veka rsiꞌik i Ubu nsikat tamata ra tali rira salasilan ra, ma rira vavaꞌat kakiwal.’ ”
7 Yohanes nfalak verin tamata rivun ovi rma ma nbaptis ira yai ne, “Mia sian urun mia wean aru ra! Iki nfalak verin mia ne, Ubu Ni inukun i veka nma yai wol nkena mia? 8 Fyaturu lahir naꞌa bira vavaꞌat ra ne, myahil roak tali bira salasilan ra! Deka minovak naꞌa ralabira ra ne, ububir-nusibira Abraham, ba Ubu veka wol nukun mia! Mryenar ma lolin afa ovi ufalak ini! Ubu bis notu watan ma Abraham yanan ra, rtali vatu ovi! 9 Ubu Ni amar sarseri roak ma nfaleka inukun verin tamata ra. Ni inukun a wean tamata i ntaha savi ma veka netal aa ra tali rira waꞌar ra. Aa ovi vuarira wol lolin ra, na veka netal vatuk ira ma nala ira rti yafu ralan.”
10 Ba tamata rivun avyai rorat ia ne, “Wean inyai, na ami veka amotu afaka?”
11 Yohanes nfalak ne, “Wean i tamata isa ni ravit irua, na musti nala isa verin tamata i wol nia a. Wean iki ni afamtahan, na ia musti notu vali wean inyai.”
12 Tamata ovi baꞌi rera babahir kulu ra, rma vali ma Yohanes nbaptis ira. Ira rorat ne, “Tuan Guru, ami veka amotu afaka?”
13 Ia nfalak ne, “Deka myera ma nlia tali i fareta nfadoku roak a.”
14 Suldadu ra rma vali ma rorat ne, “Ami veka amotu afaka?”
Ia nfalak ne, “Deka mkyiwal tamata ra ma rala rira kubang verin mia, te deka fyasala tia ma watan tamata ra ma myala rira kubang ra. Fyikir watan ne, bira kadi naran roak ma byaꞌat.”
15 Naꞌut inyai, na tamata ra rnaban lalawatan Raja i ntevut ita tali dida salasilan ra. Ira kaꞌi rorat watan naꞌa ralarira ra ne, “Yohanes ini, betane Raja i ntevut ita tali dida salasilan ra?” 16 Ba Yohanes nfalak verin ira ne, “Yaꞌa ubaptis mia ovu wear, naꞌuk Ia i veka nma a Ni ngrebat a nlia yaꞌa. Yaꞌa wol verang a ratang Ia, ba wol inovan lahir ma aling Ni tatea ni tatur ra. Ia veka nbaptis mia ovu Ni Roh a ovu vali yafu a.‡ 17 Ia wean tamata isa i ntaha fanan lafan ma al ntafi wanat ra. Wanat vatul ovi lolin ra, nfadok-aling ira naꞌa wan i baꞌi rfadoku wanat ra naꞌa, naꞌuk ovi sian ra ovu kukan ra nasnuri ira naꞌa yafu i wol nmat-nala.”§
18 Naꞌut i Yohanes nfamalik Ubu Ni Ivar Lolin a, na nala snurak rivun verin tamata ra. 19 Ia ntabu Herodes i notu raja naꞌa Galilea, tevek nsifa ovu ifarn i Filipus awan a, naran Herodias. Yohanes ntabu vali Herodes naꞌa ni afa sian liak ovi notu ra munuk.* 20 Ti nata, Herodes ntafal ma naktufan, ovu nala Yohanes ma nti buꞌi ralan.
Yohanes a nbaptis Yesus

21 Naꞌut i Yohanes wol nanaꞌa buꞌi ralan obin, na ia nbaptis tamata ra, ovu nbaptis vali Yesus. Ti ma Yohanes nbaptis roak Yesus, na Yesus naflurut. Naꞌut i naflurut obin, na lanit ratan a natvadil,† 22 ovu Ubu Ni Roh a nsuta wean modarlaka ma ndoku Yesus tenan a. Nata vai isa ntali lanit ratan nma ma nfalak ne, “Oa ini Yanak i ulobang urun a. Oa motu ma ralang a lolin urun.”
