Lucas 3
Ang Bagong Tipan: Filipino Standard Version
Ang Pangangaral ni Juan na Tagapagbautismo(A)
3 Nang ikalabinlimang taon ng paghahari ni Emperador Tiberio, habang si Poncio Pilato ang gobernador ng Judea, si Herodes ang pinuno[a] ng Galilea, si Felipe na kanyang kapatid ang pinuno ng Iturea at Traconite, at si Lysanias naman ang pinuno ng Abilinia; 2 at sina Anas at Caifas naman ang mga Kataas-taasang Pari, dumating ang salita ng Diyos sa anak ni Zacarias na si Juan na nasa ilang. 3 Tinungo niya ang buong lupain sa palibot ng Jordan upang ipangaral ang bautismo ng pagsisisi para sa kapatawaran ng kasalanan. 4 Gaya ng nasusulat sa aklat ni propetang si Isaias,
“Ang tinig ng isang sumisigaw sa ilang,
‘Ihanda ninyo ang daraanan ng Panginoon,
tuwirin ninyo ang kanyang mga landas.
5 Tatambakan ang bawat lambak,
at papatagin ang bawat bundok at burol.
Itutuwid ang likong daan,
at papatagin ang daang lubak-lubak.
6 At makikita ng lahat ng tao ang pagliligtas ng Diyos.’ ”
7 Sinabi ni Juan sa maraming mga taong nagdatingan upang magpabautismo sa kanya, “Mga anak ng ulupong! Sino ang nagbabala sa inyo na tumakas sa darating na poot? 8 Kaya mamunga kayo ng mga bungang karapat-dapat sa pagsisisi. Huwag ninyong sabihin sa isa't isa, ‘Ama namin si Abraham.’ Sinasabi ko sa inyo na mula sa mga batong ito ay kaya ng Diyos na lumikha ng mga anak para kay Abraham. 9 Ngayon pa man ay nakaamba na ang palakol sa ugat ng mga punongkahoy. Pinuputol ang bawat punongkahoy na hindi nagbubunga ng mabuti at itinatapon sa apoy.” 10 Kaya't tinanong siya ng maraming tao, “Ano ngayon ang kailangan naming gawin?” 11 At pagsagot ay sinabi niya sa kanila, “Ang may dalawang damit panloob ay bigyan ang wala at ang may pagkain ay gayon din ang gawin.” 12 May mga nagdatingan ding mga maniningil ng buwis na magpapabautismo na nagsabi sa kanya, “Guro, ano ang nararapat naming gawin?” 13 Sinabi niya sa kanila, “Huwag kayong sumingil nang labis sa ipinag-uutos sa inyo.” 14 Nagtanong din sa kanya ang mga kawal, “At kami naman, ano naman ang dapat naming gawin?” At sinabi niya sa kanila, “Huwag kayong mangikil ni magbintang nang mali. Makuntento kayo sa inyong sinasahod.” 15 Dahil sa pananabik ng mga tao, nagtatanungan sila kung si Juan na nga ba ang Cristo. 16 Sinagot silang lahat ni Juan, “Binabautismuhan ko nga kayo sa tubig, ngunit may darating na higit na makapangyarihan kaysa akin. Hindi ako karapat-dapat na magkalag man lang ng kanyang sandalyas. Siya ang magbabautismo sa inyo sa Banal na Espiritu at apoy. 17 Nasa kanyang kamay ang kalaykay upang linisin nang husto ang kanyang giikan at tipunin ang trigo sa kanyang kamalig; subalit ang ipa ay kanyang susunugin sa apoy na hindi maaápula.” 18 Kaya nga't ipinangaral niya ang marami at iba't ibang bagay sa paghahayag ng mabuting balita. 19 Subalit si Herodes na pinuno, dahil siya'y napagsabihan ni Juan tungkol kay Herodias na asawa ng kanyang kapatid at tungkol sa lahat ng mga masasamang ginawa ni Herodes, 20 idinagdag pa sa lahat ng ito nang ipinakulong niya si Juan sa bilangguan.
Binautismuhan si Jesus(B)
21 Nang mabautismuhan na ang lahat ng tao, binautismuhan din si Jesus. Habang siya ay nananalangin, nabuksan ang langit 22 at bumaba sa kanya ang Banal na Espiritu sa anyo ng isang kalapati. Sinabi ng isang tinig mula sa langit, “Ikaw ang pinakamamahal kong anak. Sa iyo ako lubos na nalulugod.”

Luke 3
New International Version
John the Baptist Prepares the Way(A)(B)
3 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— 2 during the high-priesthood of Annas and Caiaphas,(E) the word of God came to John(F) son of Zechariah(G) in the wilderness. 3 He went into all the country around the Jordan, preaching a baptism of repentance for the forgiveness of sins.(H) 4 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.
5 Every valley shall be filled in,
every mountain and hill made low.
The crooked roads shall become straight,
the rough ways smooth.
6 And all people will see God’s salvation.’”[a](I)
7 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) 8 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. 9 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)
