Chinese New Version (Traditional)
施洗約翰(A)
3 凱撒提庇留執政第十五年，本丟．彼拉多作猶太總督，希律作加利利的分封王，他兄弟腓力作以土利亞和特拉可尼地區的分封王，呂撒尼亞作亞比利尼的分封王， 2 亞那和該亞法作大祭司的時候， 神的話臨到撒迦利亞的兒子，在曠野的約翰。 3 他就來到約旦河一帶地方，宣講悔改的洗禮，使罪得赦。 4 正如以賽亞先知的書上寫著：
“在曠野有呼喊者的聲音：
‘預備主的道，
修直他的路！
5 一切窪谷都當填滿，
大小山岡都要削平！
彎彎曲曲的改為正直，
高高低低的修成平坦！
6 所有的人都要看見 神的救恩。’”
7 約翰對那出來要受他洗禮的群眾說：“毒蛇所生的啊，誰指示你們逃避那將要來的忿怒呢？ 8 應當結出果子來，與悔改的心相稱；你們心裡不要說：‘我們有亞伯拉罕作我們的祖宗。’我告訴你們， 神能從這些石頭中給亞伯拉罕興起後裔來。 9 現在斧頭已經放在樹根上，所有不結好果子的樹，就砍下來，丟在火裡。” 10 群眾問他：“那麼，我們該作甚麼呢？” 11 他回答：“有兩件衣服的，當分給那沒有的，有食物的也當照樣作。” 12 又有稅吏來要受洗，問他：“老師，我們當作甚麼呢？” 13 他說：“除了規定的以外，不可多收。” 14 兵丁也問他：“至於我們，我們又應當作甚麼呢？”他說：“不要恐嚇，不要敲詐，當以自己的糧餉為滿足。”
15 那時眾人正在期待，人人心裡都在猜想會不會約翰就是基督。 16 約翰對眾人說：“我用水給你們施洗，但那能力比我更大的要來，我就是給他解鞋帶都沒有資格。他要用聖靈與火給你們施洗。 17 他手裡拿著簸箕，要揚淨麥場，把麥子收進倉裡，卻用不滅的火把糠秕燒盡。” 18 他還用許多別的話勸勉眾人，向他們傳福音。 19 分封王希律，因他弟弟的妻子希羅底，並因他自己所行的一切惡事，受到約翰的責備。 20 他在這一切事以外，再加上一件，就是把約翰關在監裡。
耶穌受洗(B)
21 眾人受了洗，耶穌也受了洗。他正在禱告，天就開了， 22 聖靈仿佛鴿子，有形體地降在他身上；有聲音從天上來，說：“你是我的愛子，我喜悅你。”
耶穌的家譜(C)

Luke 3
New Living Translation
John the Baptist Prepares the Way
3 It was now the fifteenth year of the reign of Tiberius, the Roman emperor. Pontius Pilate was governor over Judea; Herod Antipas was ruler[a] over Galilee; his brother Philip was ruler[b] over Iturea and Traconitis; Lysanias was ruler over Abilene. 2 Annas and Caiaphas were the high priests. At this time a message from God came to John son of Zechariah, who was living in the wilderness. 3 Then John went from place to place on both sides of the Jordan River, preaching that people should be baptized to show that they had repented of their sins and turned to God to be forgiven. 4 Isaiah had spoken of John when he said,
“He is a voice shouting in the wilderness,
‘Prepare the way for the Lord’s coming!
Clear the road for him!
5 The valleys will be filled,
and the mountains and hills made level.
The curves will be straightened,
and the rough places made smooth.
6 And then all people will see
the salvation sent from God.’”[c]
7 When the crowds came to John for baptism, he said, “You brood of snakes! Who warned you to flee the coming wrath? 8 Prove by the way you live that you have repented of your sins and turned to God. Don’t just say to each other, ‘We’re safe, for we are descendants of Abraham.’ That means nothing, for I tell you, God can create children of Abraham from these very stones. 9 Even now the ax of God’s judgment is poised, ready to sever the roots of the trees. Yes, every tree that does not produce good fruit will be chopped down and thrown into the fire.”
10 The crowds asked, “What should we do?”
11 John replied, “If you have two shirts, give one to the poor. If you have food, share it with those who are hungry.”
12 Even corrupt tax collectors came to be baptized and asked, “Teacher, what should we do?”
13 He replied, “Collect no more taxes than the government requires.”
14 “What should we do?” asked some soldiers.
John replied, “Don’t extort money or make false accusations. And be content with your pay.”
15 Everyone was expecting the Messiah to come soon, and they were eager to know whether John might be the Messiah. 16 John answered their questions by saying, “I baptize you with[d] water; but someone is coming soon who is greater than I am—so much greater that I’m not even worthy to be his slave and untie the straps of his sandals. He will baptize you with the Holy Spirit and with fire.[e] 17 He is ready to separate the chaff from the wheat with his winnowing fork. Then he will clean up the threshing area, gathering the wheat into his barn but burning the chaff with never-ending fire.” 18 John used many such warnings as he announced the Good News to the people.
19 John also publicly criticized Herod Antipas, the ruler of Galilee,[f] for marrying Herodias, his brother’s wife, and for many other wrongs he had done. 20 So Herod put John in prison, adding this sin to his many others.
The Baptism of Jesus
21 One day when the crowds were being baptized, Jesus himself was baptized. As he was praying, the heavens opened, 22 and the Holy Spirit, in bodily form, descended on him like a dove. And a voice from heaven said, “You are my dearly loved Son, and you bring me great joy.[g]”
