1Now in the fifteenth year of the reign of Tiberius Caesar, Pontius Pilate being governor of Judea, and Herod being tetrarch of Galilee, and Philip his brother tetrarch of Iturea and the country of Trachonitis, and Lysanias tetrarch of Abilina:Ma l'anno quintodecimo dell'impero di Tiberio Cesare, essendo proccuratore della Giudea Ponzio Pilato, e tetrarca della Galilea Erode, e Filippo suo fratello tetrarca dell'Iturea, e della Traconitide, e Lisania tetrarca dell'Abilene,AND in the fiftenth yere of the empire of Tiberius Caesar, Pontius Pilate being Gouernour of Ievvrie, and Herod being Tetrarch of Galilee, and Philip his brother Tetrarch of Ituréa and the countrie Trachonîtis, and Lysanias Tetrarch of Abilina,Anno autem quintodecimo imperii Tiberii Cæsaris, procurante Pontio Pilato Judæam, tetrarcha autem Galiææ Herode, Philippo autem fratre ejus tetrarcha Iturææ, et Trachonitidis regionis, et Lysania Abilinæ tetrarcha, 2Under the high priests Annas and Caiphas: the word of the Lord was made unto John, the son of Zachary, in the desert.Sotto i pontefici Anna, e Caifa, il Signore parlò a Giovanni, figliuolo di Zaccaria nel deserto:vnder the high Priests Annas and Caiphas: the vvord of our Lord vvas made vpon Iohn the sonne of Zacharie, in the desert.sub principibus sacerdotum Anna et Caipha: factum est verbum Domini super Joannem, Zachariæ filium, in deserto. 3And he came into all the country about the Jordan, preaching the baptism of penance for the remission of sins.Ed egli andò per tutto il paese intorno al Giordano, predicando il battesimo di penitenza per la remissione de' peccati:And he came into al the countrie of Iordan, preaching the baptisme of penance vnto remission of sinnes: as it is vvritten in the booke of the sayings of Esay the Prophet:Et venit in omnem regionem Jordanis, prædicans baptismum pœnitentiæ in remissionem peccatorum, 4As it was written in the book of the sayings of Isaias the prophet: A voice of one crying in the wilderness: Prepare ye the way of the Lord, make straight his paths.Conforme sta scritto nel libro dei sermoni d'Isaia profeta: Voce di uno, che grida nel deserto: Preparate la via del Signore: raddirizzate i suoi sentieri:A voice of one crying in the desert: prepare the vvay of our Lord, make straight his pathes.sicut scriptum est in libro sermonum Isaiæ prophetæ: Vox clamantis in deserto: / Parate viam Domini; rectas facite semitas ejus: 5Every valley shall be filled and every mountain and hill shall be brought low: and the crooked shall be made straight, and the rough ways plain.Tutte le valli si riempiranno, e tutti i monti, le colline si abbasseranno: e i luoghi tortuosi si raddirizzeranno, e i malagevoli si appianeranno:Euery valley shal be filled: and euery mountaine and hil shal be made lovv, and crooked things shal become straight: and rough vvaies, plaine:omnis vallis implebitur, / et omnis mons, et collis humiliabitur: / et erunt prava in directa, et aspera in vias planas:

6And all flesh shall see the salvation of God.E vedranno tutti gli uomini la salute di Dio.and al flesh shal see the SALVATION of God.et videbit omnis caro salutare Dei. 7He said therefore to the multitudes that went forth to be baptized by him: Ye offspring of vipers, who hath shewed you to flee from the wrath to come?Diceva adunque (Giovanni) alle turbe, che andavano per essere da lui battezzate: Razza di vipere, chi vi ha insegnato a fuggire l'ira, che vi sovrasta?He said therfore to the multitudes that vvent forth to be baptized of him, Ye viper broodes, vvho hath shevved you to flee from the vvrath to come?Dicebat ergo ad turbas quæ exibant ut baptizarentur ab ipso: Genimina viperarum, quis ostendit vobis fugere a ventura ira ? 8Bring forth therefore fruits worthy of penance: and do not begin to say, We have Abraham for our father. For I say unto you that God is able of these stones, to raise up children to Abraham.Fate adunque frutti degni di penitenza, e non vi mettete a dire: Abbiamo Abramo per padre. Imperocché io vi dico, che può Dio da queste pietre suscitar figliuoli ad Abramo.Yeld therfore fruites vvorthie of penance. and doe ye not begin to say, Vve haue Abraham to our father. For I tel you, that God is able of these stones to raise vp children to Abraham.Facite ergo fructus dignos pœnitentiæ, et ne cœperitis dicere: Patrem habemus Abraham. Dico enim vobis quia potens est Deus de lapidibus istis suscitare filios Abrahæ. 9For now the axe is laid to the root of the trees. Every tree therefore that bringeth not forth good fruit shall be cut down and cast into the fire.Imperocché già anche la scure è alla radice degli alberi. Ogni albero adunque, che non porta buon frutto, sarà tagliato, e gettato nel fuoco.And novv the axe is put to the roote of the trees. Euery tree therfore that yeldeth not good fruite, shal be' cut dovvne, and cast into fire.Jam enim securis ad radicem arborum posita est. Omnis ergo arbor non faciens fructum bonum, excidetur, et in ignem mittetur. 10And the people asked him, saying: What then shall we do?E le turbe lo interrogavano, dicendo: Che abbiamo noi dunque a fare?And the multitudes asked him, saying, Vvhat shal vve doe then?Et interrogabant eum turbæ, dicentes: Quid ergo faciemus ? 11And he answering, said to them: He that hath two coats, let him give to him that hath none; and he that hath meat, let him do in like manner.Ed ei rispondeva loro: Chi ha due vesti, ne dia a chi non ne ha: e il simile faccia, chi ha de' commestibili.And he ansvvering, said vnto them: He that hath tvvo coates, let him giue to him that hath not: and he that hath meate, let him doe likevvise.Respondens autem dicebat illis: Qui habet duas tunicas, det non habenti: et qui habet escas, similiter faciat.

12And the publicans also came to be baptized and said to him: Master, what shall we do?E andarono anche de' pubblicani, per essere battezzati, e gli dissero: Maestro, che abbiamo da fare?And the Publicans also came to be baptized, and said to him, Maister, vvhat shal vve doe?Venerunt autem et publicani ut baptizarentur, et dixerunt ad illum: Magister, quid faciemus ? 13But he said to them: Do nothing more than that which is appointed you.Ed egli disse loro: Non esigete più di quello, che vi è stato fissato.But he said to them, Doe nothing more then that vvhich is appointed you.At ille dixit ad eos: Nihil amplius, quam quod constitutum est vobis, faciatis. 14And the soldiers also asked him, saying: And what shall we do? And he said to them: Do violence to no man, neither calumniate any man; and be content with your pay.Lo interrogavano ancora i soldati, dicendo: Che abbiamo da fare anco noi? Ed ei disse loro: Non togliete il suo ad alcuno per forza, né con frode: e contentatevi della vostra paga.And the souldiars also asked him, saying, Vvhat shal vve also doe? And he said to them, Vexe not neither calumniate any man: and be content vvith your stipends.Interrogabant autem eum et milites, dicentes: Quid faciemus et nos ? Et ait illis: Neminem concutiatis, neque calumniam faciatis: et contenti estote stipendiis vestris. 15And as the people were of opinion, and all were thinking in their hearts of John, that perhaps he might be the Christ:Ma stando il popolo in espettazione, e pensando tutti in cuor loro, se mai Giovanni fosse il Cristo:And the people imagining, and al men thinking in their harts of Iohn, lest perhaps he vvere Christ:Existimante autem populo, et cogitantibus omnibus in cordibus suis de Joanne, ne forte ipse esset Christus, 16John answered, saying unto all: I indeed baptize you with water: but there shall come one mightier than I, the latchet of whose shoes I am not worthy to loose. He shall baptize you with the Holy Ghost and with fire;Giovanni rispose, e disse a tutti: Quanto a me, io vi battezzo con acqua: ma viene uno più possente di me, di cui non son io degno di sciogliere le corregge delle scarpe: egli vi battezzerà, con lo Spirito santo, e col fuoco:Iohn ansvvered, saying vnto al, I in deede baptize you vvith vvater: but there shal come' a mightier then I, vvhose latchet of his shoes I am not vvorthie to vnloose, he shal baptize you in the Holy Ghost and fire.respondit Joannes, dicens omnibus: Ego quidem aqua baptizo vos: veniet autem fortior me, cujus non sum dignus solvere corrigiam calceamentorum ejus: ipse vos baptizabit in Spiritu Sancto et igni:

17Whose fan is in his hand: and he will purge his floor and will gather the wheat into his barn: but the chaff he will burn with unquenchable fire.Egli avrà alla mano la sua pala e pulirà la sua aia, e ragunerà il frumento nel suo granaio; e brugerà la paglia in un fuoco inestinguibile.vvhose fanne is in his hand, and he vvil purge his floore: and vvil gather the vvheate into his barne, but the chaffe he vvil burne vvith vnquencheable fire.cujus ventilabrum in manu ejus, et purgabit aream suam, et congregabit triticum in horreum suum, paleas autem comburet igni inextinguibili. 18And many other things exhorting did he preach to the people.E molte altre cose ancora predicava al popolo, istruendolo.Many other things also exhorting did he euangelize to the people.Multa quidem et alia exhortans evangelizabat populo. 19But Herod the tetrarch, when he was reproved by him for Herodias, his brother’s wife, and for all the evils which Herod had done:Ma Erode il tetrarca, essendo stato ripreso da lui a casa di Erodiade moglie di suo fratello, e a motivo di tutti i mali, che aveva fatti,And Herod the Tetrarch, vvhen he vvas rebuked of him for Herodias his brothers' vvife, and for al the euils vvhich Herod did:Herodes autem tetrarcha cum corriperetur ab illo de Herodiade uxore fratris sui, et de omnibus malis quæ fecit Herodes, 20He added this also above all and shut up John in prison.Aggiunse a tutti anche questo, che rinserrò Giovanni in una prigione.he added this also aboue al, and shut vp Iohn into prison.adjecit et hoc super omnia, et inclusit Joannem in carcere. 21Now it came to pass, when all the people were baptized, that Jesus also being baptized and praying, heaven was opened.Or avvenne, che nel battezzanti tutto il popolo, essendo stato battezzato anche Gesù, e stando egli in orazione, si spalancò il cielo:And it came to passe vvhen al the people vvas baptized, IESVS also being baptized and praying, heauen vvas opened:Factum est autem cum baptizaretur omnis populus, et Jesu baptizato, et orante, apertum est cælum: 22And the Holy Ghost descended in a bodily shape, as a dove, upon him. And a voice came from heaven: Thou art my beloved Son. In thee I am well pleased.E discese lo Spirito santo sopra di lui in forma corporale come una colomba: e dal cielo venne questa voce: Tu se' il mio Figliuolo diletto; in temi, sono compiaciuto.and the Holy Ghost descended in corporal shape as a doue vpon him: and a voice from heauen vvas made: Thou art my beloued sonne, in thee I am vvel pleased.et descendit Spiritus Sanctus corporali specie sicut columba in ipsum: et vox de cælo facta est: Tu es filius meus dilectus, in te complacui mihi.
