馬 太 福 音 3
Chinese New Testament: Easy-to-Read Version
施洗者约翰为耶稣铺路
3 当时,施洗者约翰在犹太的荒原上传教。 2 他对人们说∶“悔改吧,天国很近了。 [a]” 3 约翰就是先知以赛亚所说的那个人。先知说:
“旷野里有个呼唤着的人,
‘为主准备好道路。
修直他的路。’” (A)
4 约翰身穿骆驼毛织成的衣服,腰系皮带,吃的是蝗虫和野蜜。 5 人们纷纷离开耶路撒冷、犹太各地和约旦河一带所有地区,来到约翰那里。 6 他们承认自己的罪,并在约旦河里接受了约翰的洗礼。
7 许多法利赛人和撒都该人也来接受约翰的洗礼,约翰看到他们,说道∶“你们这些毒蛇,谁警告过你们去逃避即将来临的上帝的审判呢? 8 改变你们的内心吧!通过你们的生活方式来表明你们已经改变了。 9 我知道你们在想什么,你们想说:‘但是,亚伯拉罕是我们的祖先!’这毫无意义。我告诉你们,上帝可以让这些石头都变成亚伯拉罕的子孙! 10 现在砍树的斧头已经准备好了,每棵不结好果子的树 [b]都将被砍倒,扔进火里。
11 我用水给你们施洗礼来表示你们的悔改。但是,在我之后来的那位,他比我更强大,我甚至都不配当给他脱鞋的奴仆。他将用圣灵和火给你们施洗礼。 12 他手里拿着簸谷叉,他将清理谷场,把麦粒收进粮仓,把麦麸 [c]用不灭的火烧掉。”
耶稣受洗
13 然后,耶稣从加利利来到约旦河。他走到约翰面前,请约翰为他施洗礼。 14 但是约翰说他不配为耶稣施洗礼,他说∶“我应该让您给我洗礼,您怎么反而来找我呢?” 15 耶稣回答说∶“现在就照上帝的方式来做吧,凡是对的,我们都应当做。”约翰这才同意为耶稣施洗礼。
16 这样,耶稣接受了洗礼。就在耶稣从水里站出来的时候,天为他豁然敞开,耶稣看见上帝的灵像鸽子一样降落在他身上。 17 一个来自天堂的声音说∶“这是我的爱子,他令我非常喜悦!”

Матей 3
Bulgarian Bible
3 В ония дни дойде Йоан Кръстител и проповядваше в Юдейската пустиня, като казваше:
2 Покайте се понеже наближи небесното царство.
3 Защото този беше, за когото се е говорило чрез пророк Исаия, който казва: “Глас на един, който вика в пустинята: Пригответе пътя на Господа, прави направете пътеките за Него”.
4 А тоя Йоан носеше облекло от камилска козина и кожен пояс около кръста си; а храната му беше акриди и див мед.
5 Тогава излизаха при него Ерусалим, цяла Юдея и цялата Йорданска околност,
6 и се кръщаваха от него в реката Йордан, като изповядваха греховете си.
7 А като видя, че мнозина от фарисеите и садукеите идеха да се кръстят от него, рече им: Рожби ехидни! Кой ви предупреди да бягате от идещия гняв?
8 Затова, принасяйте плодове достойни за покаяние;
9 и не мислете да думате в себе си: Авраам е нашият баща; защото ви казвам, че Бог може и от тия камъни да въздигне чада на Авраама.
10 А и брадвата лежи вече при корена на дърветата; и тъй всяко дърво, което не дава добър плод, отсича се и в огъня се хвърля.
11 Аз ви кръщавам с вода за покаяние; а Оня, Който иде след мене, е по-силен от мене, Комуто не съм достоен да понеса обущата; Той ще ви кръсти със Святия Дух и с огън.
12 Лопатата е в ръката Му, и Той здраво ще очисти гумното Си, и ще събере житото Си в житницата, а плявата ще изгори в неугасим огън.
13 Тогава идва Исус от Галилея на Йордан при Йоана за да се кръсти от него.
14 А Йоан го възпираше, казвайки: Аз имам нужда да се кръстя от Тебе, и Ти ли идеш при мене?
15 А Исус в отговор му рече: Остави сега, защото така ни е прилично да изпълним всичко що е право. Тогава Йоан Го остави.
16 И като се кръсти, Исус веднага излезе от водата; и, ето, отвориха Му се небесата и видя Божият Дух, че слиза като гълъб и се спускаше на Него;
17 и ето глас от небесата, който казваше: Този е възлюбеният Ми Син, в Когото е Моето благоволение.

The Messiah’s Herald
3 In those days John the Baptist came,(A) preaching in the Wilderness of Judea(B) 2 and saying, “Repent, because the kingdom of heaven has come near!”(C) 3 For he is the one spoken of through the prophet Isaiah, who said:
A voice of one crying out in the wilderness:
Prepare the way for the Lord;
make His paths straight!(D)[a]
4 John himself had a camel-hair garment with a leather belt around his waist, and his food was locusts and wild honey. 5 Then people from Jerusalem, all Judea, and all the vicinity of the Jordan were flocking to him, 6 and they were baptized by him in the Jordan River as they confessed their sins.(E)
7 When he saw many of the Pharisees and Sadducees(F) coming to the place of his baptism,[b] he said to them, “Brood of vipers! Who warned you to flee from the coming wrath?(G) 8 Therefore produce fruit(H) consistent with[c] repentance. 9 And don’t presume to say to yourselves, ‘We have Abraham as our father.’(I) For I tell you that God is able to raise up children for Abraham from these stones! 10 Even now the ax is ready to strike the root of the trees! Therefore, every tree that doesn’t produce good fruit will be cut down and thrown into the fire.(J)
11 “I baptize you with[d] water for repentance,[e](K) but the One who is coming after me is more powerful than I. I am not worthy to remove[f] His sandals. He Himself will baptize you with[g] the Holy Spirit and fire.(L) 12 His winnowing shovel[h] is in His hand, and He will clear His threshing floor and gather His wheat into the barn. But the chaff He will burn up with fire that never goes out.”(M)
The Baptism of Jesus
13 Then Jesus came from Galilee to John at the Jordan, to be baptized by him.(N) 14 But John tried to stop Him, saying, “I need to be baptized by You, and yet You come to me?”
15 Jesus answered him, “Allow it for now, because this is the way for us to fulfill all righteousness.” Then he allowed Him to be baptized.
16 After Jesus was baptized, He went up immediately from the water. The heavens(O) suddenly opened for Him,[i] and He saw the Spirit of God descending like a dove and coming down on Him.(P) 17 And there came a voice from heaven:
This is My beloved Son.
I take delight in Him!(Q)

New International Version
John the Baptist Prepares the Way(A)
3 In those days John the Baptist(B) came, preaching in the wilderness of Judea 2 and saying, “Repent, for the kingdom of heaven(C) has come near.” 3 This is he who was spoken of through the prophet Isaiah:
“A voice of one calling in the wilderness,
‘Prepare the way for the Lord,
make straight paths for him.’”[a](D)
4 John’s(E) clothes were made of camel’s hair, and he had a leather belt around his waist.(F) His food was locusts(G) and wild honey. 5 People went out to him from Jerusalem and all Judea and the whole region of the Jordan. 6 Confessing their sins, they were baptized(H) by him in the Jordan River.
7 But when he saw many of the Pharisees and Sadducees coming to where he was baptizing, he said to them: “You brood of vipers!(I) Who warned you to flee from the coming wrath?(J) 8 Produce fruit in keeping with repentance.(K) 9 And do not think you can say to yourselves, ‘We have Abraham as our father.’(L) I tell you that out of these stones God can raise up children for Abraham. 10 The ax is already at the root of the trees, and every tree that does not produce good fruit will be cut down and thrown into the fire.(M)
11 “I baptize you with[b] water for repentance.(N) But after me comes one who is more powerful than I, whose sandals I am not worthy to carry. He will baptize you with[c] the Holy Spirit(O) and fire.(P) 12 His winnowing fork is in his hand, and he will clear his threshing floor, gathering his wheat into the barn and burning up the chaff with unquenchable fire.”(Q)
The Baptism of Jesus(R)
13 Then Jesus came from Galilee to the Jordan to be baptized by John.(S) 14 But John tried to deter him, saying, “I need to be baptized by you, and do you come to me?”
15 Jesus replied, “Let it be so now; it is proper for us to do this to fulfill all righteousness.” Then John consented.
16 As soon as Jesus was baptized, he went up out of the water. At that moment heaven was opened,(T) and he saw the Spirit of God(U) descending like a dove and alighting on him. 17 And a voice from heaven(V) said, “This is my Son,(W) whom I love; with him I am well pleased.”(X)
