Ang Pagwali ni Juan nga Tigbautismo

(Mat. 3:1-12; Mar. 1:1-8; Juan 1:19-28)

1-2 Human molabay ang pipila ka tuig, may gisulti ang Dios kang Juan nga anak ni Zacarias didto sa kamingawan. Kini nahitabo sa ika-15 ka tuig sa pagdumala ni Tiberio nga Emperador sa Roma. Niining tuiga usab, si Poncio Pilato ang gobernador sa Judea, ug si Herodes ang pangulo sa Galilea. Si Felipe nga igsoon ni Herodes ang pangulo sa Iturea ug Traconite; ug si Lisanias ang pangulo sa Abilene. Si Anas ug si Caifas ang mga pangulong pari. Tungod sa gisulti sa Dios kang Juan, miadto siya sa mga dapit nga duol sa Suba sa Jordan ug nagwali. Miingon siya sa mga tawo, “Paghinulsol kamo sa inyong mga sala, ug magpabautismo aron pasayloon kamo sa Dios.” Pinaagi niining iyang gihimo natuman ang gisulat ni Propeta Isaias:

“May magwalig makusog sa kamingawan. Mag-ingon siya sa mga tawo,
‘Andama ninyo ang agianan alang sa Ginoo.
Tul-ira ang dalan nga iyang pagaagian!
Ang tanang libaong tambakan,
Ug ang tanang bukid ug bungtod patagon.
Ang nagliko-likong dalan tul-iron.
Ug ang mga libaongon ug batoon nga dalan ayohon.
Ug makita sa tanang mga tawo kon unsa ang himuon sa Dios sa pagluwas kanila.’ ”[a]

Daghan ang mga tawo nga miadto kang Juan aron magpabautismo. Miingon si Juan kanila, “Kamong mga kaliwat sa mga bitin! Kinsa ang nagaingon kaninyo nga makalingkawas kamo gikan sa silot sa Dios nga hapit na muabot? Kon tinuod nga naghinulsol na kamo sa inyong mga sala, pamatud-i ninyo kini pinaagi sa inyong mga binuhatan. Ayaw kamo pag-ingon nga dili kamo silotan tungod kay mga kaliwat kamo ni Abraham. Kay bisan gani kining mga bato mahimong himuon sa Dios nga mga anak ni Abraham. Timan-i ninyo kini: ang atsa andam na aron iputol sa punoan sa mga kahoy. Ang matag kahoy nga wala mamunga ug maayong bunga putlon ug ilabay sa kalayo.”

10 Nangutana ang mga tawo kang Juan, “Unsa man diay ang among himuon?” 11 Mitubag si Juan, “Kon kinsa kaninyo ang may duha ka bisti ihatag ang usa sa walay bisti. Ug kon kinsa kaninyo ang may pagkaon, hatagi kadtong walay pagkaon.” 12 May mga maniningil ug buhis nga miadto usab kang Juan aron magpabautismo. Miingon sila kang Juan, “Magtutudlo, unsa may among himuon?” 13 Mitubag si Juan, “Kon maningil kamo ug buhis, ayaw kamo paningil ug sobra sa gipasingil kaninyo sa gobyerno.” 14 May mga sundalo usab nga nangutana, miingon sila, “Unya, kami, unsa may among himuon?” Mitubag si Juan kanila, “Ayaw kamo pagpanghulga o pagpamutangbutang aron makapanguwarta. Kinahanglan nga makontento kamo sa inyong suhol.”

15 Pagkadungog sa mga tawo sa mga pagpanudlo ni Juan, naghuna-huna sila nga tingali si Juan mao na ang Cristo nga ilang gipaabot. 16 Apan miingon si Juan kanila, “Ako nagabautismo kaninyo sa tubig, apan may muabot nga mas gamhanan pa kay kanako. Ug dili gani ako takos nga mahimong iyang sulugoon.[b] Siya magbautismo kaninyo sa Espiritu Santo ug sa kalayo. 17 Sama siya sa tawo nga nagapalid sa iyang giani aron ilain ang timgas gikan sa tahop. Ang timgas ibutang niya sa bodega apan ang tahop sunogon niya sa kalayo nga dili gayod mapalong.”

18 Daghan pang mga butang sa pagpangdasig ang gitudlo ni Juan sa iyang pagwali sa Maayong Balita ngadto sa mga tawo. 19 Bisan gani si Herodes nga pangulo sa Galilea gibadlong ni Juan tungod kay gihimo niyang kabit ang iyang bayaw nga si Herodias ug tungod sa daghan pang mga daotan nga iyang gihimo. 20 Ug sa kaulahian nadugangan pa gayod ang sala ni Herodes tungod sa iyang pagpapriso kang Juan.

Ang Pagbautismo kang Jesus

(Mat. 3:13-17; Mar. 1:9-11)

21 Usa ka adlaw, human mabautismohi ni Juan ang mga tawo, si Jesus nagpabautismo usab. Samtang nagaampo si Jesus, naabli ang langit 22 ug mikunsad kaniya ang Espiritu Santo nga sama sa dagway sa salampati. Unya may tingog nga nadungog gikan sa langit nga nagaingon, “Ikaw ang akong pinalanggang Anak. Nalipay gayod ako kanimo.”

John the Baptist Prepares the Way(A)(B)

In the fifteenth year of the reign of Tiberius Caesar—when Pontius Pilate(C) was governor of Judea, Herod(D) tetrarch of Galilee, his brother Philip tetrarch of Iturea and Traconitis, and Lysanias tetrarch of Abilene— during the high-priesthood of Annas and Caiaphas,(E) the word of God came to John(F) son of Zechariah(G) in the wilderness. He went into all the country around the Jordan, preaching a baptism of repentance for the forgiveness of sins.(H) As it is written in the book of the words of Isaiah the prophet:

“A voice of one calling in the wilderness,
‘Prepare the way for the Lord,
    make straight paths for him.
Every valley shall be filled in,
    every mountain and hill made low.
The crooked roads shall become straight,
    the rough ways smooth.
And all people will see God’s salvation.’”[a](I)

John said to the crowds coming out to be baptized by him, “You brood of vipers!(J) Who warned you to flee from the coming wrath?(K) Produce fruit in keeping with repentance. And do not begin to say to yourselves, ‘We have Abraham as our father.’(L) For I tell you that out of these stones God can raise up children for Abraham. 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)

10 “What should we do then?”(N) the crowd asked.

11 John answered, “Anyone who has two shirts should share with the one who has none, and anyone who has food should do the same.”(O)

12 Even tax collectors came to be baptized.(P) “Teacher,” they asked, “what should we do?”

13 “Don’t collect any more than you are required to,”(Q) he told them.

14 Then some soldiers asked him, “And what should we do?”

He replied, “Don’t extort money and don’t accuse people falsely(R)—be content with your pay.”

15 The people were waiting expectantly and were all wondering in their hearts if John(S) might possibly be the Messiah.(T) 16 John answered them all, “I baptize you with[b] water.(U) But one who is more powerful than I will come, the straps of whose sandals I am not worthy to untie. He will baptize you with[c] the Holy Spirit and fire.(V) 17 His winnowing fork(W) is in his hand to clear his threshing floor and to gather the wheat into his barn, but he will burn up the chaff with unquenchable fire.”(X) 18 And with many other words John exhorted the people and proclaimed the good news to them.

19 But when John rebuked Herod(Y) the tetrarch because of his marriage to Herodias, his brother’s wife, and all the other evil things he had done, 20 Herod added this to them all: He locked John up in prison.(Z)

The Baptism and Genealogy of Jesus(AA)(AB)

21 When all the people were being baptized, Jesus was baptized too. And as he was praying,(AC) heaven was opened 22 and the Holy Spirit descended on him(AD) in bodily form like a dove. And a voice came from heaven: “You are my Son,(AE) whom I love; with you I am well pleased.”(AF)

Now in the fifteenth year of the reign of Tiberius Caesar, Pontius Pilate being governor of Judaea, and Herod being tetrarch of Galilee, and his brother Philip tetrarch of Ituraea and of the region of Trachonitis, and Lysanias the tetrarch of Abilene,

Annas and Caiaphas being the high priests, the word of God came unto John the son of Zacharias in the wilderness.

And he came into all the country about Jordan, preaching the baptism of repentance for the remission of sins;

As it is written in the book of the words of Esaias the prophet, saying, The voice of one crying in the wilderness, Prepare ye the way of the Lord, make his paths straight.

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 shall be made smooth;

And all flesh shall see the salvation of God.

Then said he to the multitude that came forth to be baptized of him, O generation of vipers, who hath warned you to flee from the wrath to come?

Bring forth therefore fruits worthy of repentance, and begin not to say within yourselves, We have Abraham to our father: for I say unto you, That God is able of these stones to raise up children unto Abraham.

And now also the axe is laid unto the root of the trees: every tree therefore which bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire.

10 And the people asked him, saying, What shall we do then?

11 He answereth and saith unto them, He that hath two coats, let him impart to him that hath none; and he that hath meat, let him do likewise.

12 Then came also publicans to be baptized, and said unto him, Master, what shall we do?

13 And he said unto them, Exact no more than that which is appointed you.

14 And the soldiers likewise demanded of him, saying, And what shall we do? And he said unto them, Do violence to no man, neither accuse any falsely; and be content with your wages.

15 And as the people were in expectation, and all men mused in their hearts of John, whether he were the Christ, or not;

16 John answered, saying unto them all, I indeed baptize you with water; but one mightier than I cometh, the latchet of whose shoes I am not worthy to unloose: he shall baptize you with the Holy Ghost and with fire:

17 Whose fan is in his hand, and he will throughly purge his floor, and will gather the wheat into his garner; but the chaff he will burn with fire unquenchable.

18 And many other things in his exhortation preached he unto the people.

19 But Herod the tetrarch, being reproved by him for Herodias his brother Philip's wife, and for all the evils which Herod had done,

20 Added yet this above all, that he shut up John in prison.

21 Now when all the people were baptized, it came to pass, that Jesus also being baptized, and praying, the heaven was opened,

22 And the Holy Ghost descended in a bodily shape like a dove upon him, and a voice came from heaven, which said, Thou art my beloved Son; in thee I am well pleased.

23 And Jesus himself began to be about thirty years of age, being (as was supposed) the son of Joseph, which was the son of Heli,

35 Which was the son of Saruch, which was the son of Ragau, which was the son of Phalec, which was the son of Heber, which was the son of Sala,

36 Which was the son of Cainan, which was the son of Arphaxad, which was the son of Sem, which was the son of Noe, which was the son of Lamech,

37 Which was the son of Mathusala, which was the son of Enoch, which was the son of Jared, which was the son of Maleleel, which was the son of Cainan,
