路加福音 3
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。”

Luke 3
Christian Standard Bible
The Messiah’s Herald
3 In the fifteenth year of the reign of Tiberius Caesar, while Pontius Pilate was governor of Judea,(A) Herod was tetrarch[a] of Galilee,(B) his brother Philip tetrarch of the region of Iturea and Trachonitis, and Lysanias tetrarch of Abilene, 2 during the high priesthood of Annas(C) and Caiaphas,(D) God’s word came to John the son of Zechariah in the wilderness.(E) 3 He went into all the vicinity of the Jordan,(F) proclaiming a baptism of repentance for the forgiveness of sins,(G) 4 as it is written in the book of the words of the prophet Isaiah:
A voice of one crying out in the wilderness:
Prepare the way for the Lord;
make his paths straight!
5 Every valley will be filled,
and every mountain and hill will be made low;[b]
the crooked will become straight,
the rough ways smooth,
6 and everyone will see the salvation of God.[c](H)
7 He then said to the crowds who came out to be baptized by him, “Brood of vipers!(I) Who warned you to flee from the coming wrath?(J) 8 Therefore produce fruit(K) consistent with repentance. And don’t start saying to yourselves, ‘We have Abraham as our father,’(L) for I tell you that God is able to raise up children for Abraham from these stones. 9 The ax is already at the root of the trees. Therefore, every tree that doesn’t produce good fruit will be cut down and thrown into the fire.”(M)
10 “What then should we do?” (N) the crowds were asking him.
11 He replied to them, “The one who has two shirts must share with someone who has none, and the one who has food must do the same.”(O)
12 Tax collectors(P) also came to be baptized, and they asked him, “Teacher, what should we do?” (Q)
13 He told them, “Don’t collect any more than what you have been authorized.”
14 Some soldiers also questioned him, “What should we do?”
He said to them, “Don’t take money from anyone by force or false accusation, and be satisfied with your wages.”
15 Now the people were waiting expectantly, and all of them were questioning in their hearts whether John might be the Messiah.(R) 16 John answered them all,(S) “I baptize you with water, but one who is more powerful than I am is coming. I am not worthy to untie the strap of his sandals. He will baptize you with[d] the Holy Spirit and fire. 17 His winnowing shovel(T) is in his hand to clear his threshing floor and gather the wheat into his barn,(U) but the chaff he will burn with fire that never goes out.”(V) 18 Then, along with many other exhortations, he proclaimed good news to the people. 19 But when John rebuked Herod the tetrarch(W) because of Herodias, his brother’s wife, and all the evil things he had done,(X) 20 Herod added this to everything else—he locked up John in prison.(Y)
The Baptism of Jesus
21 When all the people were baptized,(Z) Jesus also was baptized. As he was praying,(AA) heaven opened,(AB) 22 and the Holy Spirit descended on him in a physical appearance like a dove. And a voice came from heaven: “You are my beloved Son; with you I am well-pleased.”(AC)
