Luke 3:1 In the fyfteneth yere of the raygne of Tyberius the Emperoure, Pontius Pylate beynge leftenaunt of Iewrie, and Herode beinge Tetrach of Galile, and his brother Philip Tetrach of Iturea & of the region of the Traconites, & Lysaniath the Tetrach of Abyline Luke 3:2 (when Anna and Cayphas were the hye prestes) þe worde of the Lorde came vnto Iohn the sonne of Zacharias in the wyldernes. Luke 3:3 And he came in to all the coastes aboute Iordan, preaching þe baptyme of repentaunce for the remission of synnes, Luke 3:4 as it is wrytten in the boke of þe wordes of Esayas the prophet, sayenge: The voyce of a cryar in wyldernes: prepare ye þe waye of the Lord, make his pathes strayght. Luke 3:5 Euery valley shalbe fylled, & euery mountayne & hyll shalbe brought lowe. And thinges that be croked, shalbe made streyght: & þe rough wayes shalbe made playne: Luke 3:6 & all flesshe shall se the Saluacion of God. Luke 3:7 Then sayde he to the people, that were come forth to be baptysed of him. O ye generacion of vypers, who hath taught you to flye from the wrath to come? Luke 3:8 Brynge forth therfore due frutes of repentaunce, & begyn not to saye wyth in youre selues: we haue Abraham to oure father. For I saye vnto you. God is able of these stones to reyse vp chyldren vnto Abraham. Luke 3:9 Now also is the axe leyde vnto the rote of the trees: euery tree therfore which bryngeth not forth good frute, is hewen doune, & cast into the fyre. Luke 3:10 And þe people asked him, sayinge: what shall we do then? Luke 3:11 He answereth and sayeth, vnto them: He that hath two coates? lett him parte wyth hym that hath none, & he þt hath meate, let him do lyke wyse. Luke 3:12 Then cam þe publicans also to be baptised, & sayde vnto him: Master, what shal we do? Luke 3:13 And he sayde vnto them: requyre no more, then that which is appoynted vnto you. Luke 3:14 The soudyoures lykewyse demaunded of him, sayinge: and what shall we do? And he sayde vnto them: hurt no man: nether trouble eny man wrongfully: and be content with youre wages.
his testimony of Christ.
Luke 3:15 As the people were in a doute, and all men musyd in their hertes of Iohn, whether he were very Christ, Luke 3:16 Iohn answered & sayde vn them all: I baptise you wyth water, but one stronger then I shall come after me, whose shoo latchet I am not worthy to vnlowse: he shall baptyse you with the holy goost, & wt fyre: Luke 3:17 which hath hys fanne in hys hande, & wyll pourge his floore, and gather the corne into his barne: but the chaffe wyll he burne with fyre that neuer shalbe quenched. Luke 3:18 And many other thinges in his exhortacion preached he vnto the people. Luke 3:19 Then Herode the Tetrach when he was rebuked of hym for Herodias his brother Philippes wyfe, & for all þe euyls which Herode dyd:
Herod imprisoneth John.
Luke 3:20 added this aboue all, and layed Iohn in preson.
Christ baptized, receiveth testimony from heaven.
Luke 3:21 And it fortuned that whan all the people receaued baptime (& when Iesus was baptised and dyd praye) the heauen was opened, Luke 3:22 and the holy goost cam downe in a bodely shape lyke a doue vpon him, and a voyce came from heauen, which sayde: Thou arte my beloued sonne, in the do I delyte.
