    Diaglott, Matthew 3

    Matthew 3:1 In now the days those comes John the dipper, proclaiming in the desert of the Judea, and saying:

    Matthew 3:2 Reform ye; has come nigh for the majesty of the heavens.

    Matthew 3:3 This for is he spoken of by Esaias the prophet, saying: A voice crying out in the desert; make you ready the way of a Lord, straight make ye the beaten tracks of him.

    Matthew 3:4 He and the John had the outer garment of him from hairs of a camel, and a belt made of skin around the loins of him; the and food of him was locusts and honey wild.

    Matthew 3:5 Then went out to him Jerusalem, and all the Judea, and all the country about of the Jordan;

    Matthew 3:6 and were dipped into the Jordan by him, confessing the sins of them.

    Matthew 3:7 Seeing and many of the Pharisees and Sadducees coming to the dipping of him, he said to them: O broods of venomous serpents, who pointed out to you to flee from the coming wrath?

    Matthew 3:8 Bring forth then fruit worthy of the reformation,

    Matthew 3:9 and not think to say in yourselves: A father we have the Abraham; I say for to you, that is able the God out of the stones these to raise up children to the Abraham.

    Matthew 3:10 Now and even the axe to the root of the trees lies; every therefore tree not bearing fruit good, is cut down, and into a fire cast.

    Matthew 3:11 I indeed dip you in water, into reformation; he but after of me coming, mightier of me is, of whom not I am worthy the sandals to carry; he you will dip in spirit holy and fire.

    Matthew 3:12 Of whom the winnowing shovel in the hand of him, and he will thoroughly cleanse the threshing floor of him; and he will gather the wheat of him into the storehouse, the but chaff he will burn up in fire inextinguishable.

    Matthew 3:13 Then comes the Jesus from the Galilee to the Jordan to the John, of the to be dipped by him.

    Matthew 3:14 The but John refused him saying: I need to have by thee to be dipped, and thou comest to me?

    Matthew 3:15 Answering and the Jesus said to him: Permit now; thus for coming it is to us, to fulfil all righteousness. Then he suffered him.

    Matthew 3:16 And having dipped the Jesus went up immediately from the water; and lo, were opened to him the heavens, and was seen the spirit of the God descending like a dove, and coming on him.

    Matthew 3:17 And lo, a voice out of the heavens, saying: This is the son of me the beloved, in whom I delight.
