Johannes der Täufer

1 Im fünfzehnten Jahr der Herrschaft des Kaisers Tiberius, als Pontius Pilatus Statthalter in Judäa war und Herodes Landesfürst von Galiläa und sein Bruder Philippus Landesfürst von Ituräa und der Landschaft Trachonitis und Lysanias Landesfürst von Abilene, (Mt 3,1; Mk 1,1) 2 als Hannas und Kaiphas Hohepriester waren, da geschah das Wort Gottes zu Johannes, dem Sohn des Zacharias, in der Wüste. (Hes 1,3; Hos 1,1) 3 Und er kam in die ganze Gegend um den Jordan und predigte die Taufe der Buße zur Vergebung der Sünden, 4 wie geschrieben steht im Buch der Worte des Propheten Jesaja: »Es ist eine Stimme eines Predigers^[1] in der Wüste: Bereitet den Weg des Herrn, macht seine Steige eben! 5 Alle Täler sollen erhöht werden, und alle Berge und Hügel sollen erniedrigt werden; und was krumm ist, soll gerade werden, und was uneben ist, soll ebener Weg werden, 6 und alles Fleisch wird das Heil Gottes sehen.« 7 Da sprach Johannes zu der Menge, die hinausging, um sich von ihm taufen zu lassen: Ihr Otterngezücht, wer hat euch gewiss gemacht, dass ihr dem künftigen Zorn entrinnen werdet? 8 Seht zu, bringt rechtschaffene Früchte der Buße; und nehmt euch nicht vor zu sagen: Wir haben Abraham zum Vater. Denn ich sage euch: Gott kann dem Abraham aus diesen Steinen Kinder erwecken. 9 Es ist schon die Axt den Bäumen an die Wurzel gelegt; jeder Baum, der nicht gute Frucht bringt, wird abgehauen und ins Feuer geworfen. 10 Und die Menge fragte ihn und sprach: Was sollen wir nun tun? 11 Er antwortete aber und sprach zu ihnen: Wer zwei Hemden hat, der gebe dem, der keines hat; und wer Speise hat, tue ebenso. 12 Es kamen aber auch Zöllner, um sich taufen zu lassen, und sprachen zu ihm: Meister, was sollen denn wir tun? 13 Er sprach zu ihnen: Fordert nicht mehr, als euch vorgeschrieben ist! 14 Da fragten ihn auch Soldaten und sprachen: Was sollen denn wir tun? Und er sprach zu ihnen: Tut niemandem Gewalt noch Unrecht und lasst euch genügen an eurem Sold! 15 Als aber das Volk voll Erwartung war und alle dachten in ihren Herzen, ob Johannes vielleicht der Christus wäre, (Joh 1,19) 16 antwortete Johannes und sprach zu allen: Ich taufe euch mit Wasser; es kommt aber der, der stärker ist als ich; ich bin nicht wert, dass ich ihm die Riemen seiner Schuhe löse; der wird euch mit dem Heiligen Geist und mit Feuer taufen. 17 In seiner Hand ist die Worfschaufel, und er wird die Spreu vom Weizen trennen und den Weizen in seine Scheune sammeln, die Spreu aber wird er mit unauslöschlichem Feuer verbrennen. 18 Und mit vielem andern mehr ermahnte er das Volk und predigte ihm. 19 Herodes aber, der Landesfürst, der von Johannes zurechtgewiesen wurde wegen Herodias, der Frau seines Bruders, und wegen all des Bösen, das er getan hatte, (Mt 14,3; Mk 6,17) 20 fügte zu dem allen noch dies hinzu: Er warf Johannes ins Gefängnis.

Jesu Taufe

21 Und es begab sich, als alles Volk sich taufen ließ und Jesus auch getauft worden war und betete, da tat sich der Himmel auf, (Mt 3,13; Mk 1,9) 22 und der Heilige Geist fuhr hernieder auf ihn in leiblicher Gestalt wie eine Taube, und eine Stimme kam aus dem Himmel: Du bist mein lieber Sohn, an dir habe ich Wohlgefallen. (Lk 9,35; Joh 1,32)

1 In the fifteenth year of the reign of Tiberius Caesar, Pontius Pilate being governor of Judea, and Herod being tetrarch of Galilee, and his brother Philip tetrarch of the region of Ituraea and Trachonitis, and Lysanias tetrarch of Abilene, (Mt 14,1; Mt 27,2; Mk 6,14; Lk 2,1; Lk 2,2; Lk 3,19; Lk 8,3; Lk 9,7; Lk 9,9; Lk 13,31; Lk 23,7; Apg 4,27; Apg 13,1)

2 during the high priesthood of Annas and Caiaphas, the word of God came to John the son of Zechariah in the wilderness. (Jos 15,61; Ri 1,16; Mt 3,1; Mt 26,3; Mk 1,2; Lk 1,80; Joh 1,6; Joh 18,13; Joh 18,24; Apg 4,6)

Jos 15,61Ri 1,16Mt 3,1Mt 26,3Mk 1,2Lk 1,80Joh 1,6Joh 18,13Joh 18,24Apg 4,6

3 And he went into all the region around the Jordan, proclaiming a baptism of repentance for the forgiveness of sins. (Mt 26,28; Lk 1,77; Apg 2,38) 4 As it is written in the book of the words of Isaiah the prophet, “The voice of one crying in the wilderness: ‘Prepare the way of the Lord,^[1] make his paths straight. (Jes 40,3; Lk 1,76; Lk 4,17; Joh 1,23; Apg 8,28)

Jes 40,3Lk 1,76Lk 4,17Joh 1,23Apg 8,28

5 Every valley shall be filled, and every mountain and hill shall be made low, and the crooked shall become straight, and the rough places shall become level ways, (Jes 42,16; Jes 45,2; Jes 49,11; Jes 57,14; Sach 4,7)

Jes 42,16Jes 45,2Jes 49,11Jes 57,14Sach 4,7

6 and all flesh shall see the salvation of God.’” (Ps 98,2; Jes 52,10; Lk 1,69; Lk 1,71; Lk 1,77; Lk 2,30; Apg 28,28; Tit 2,11)

Ps 98,2Jes 52,10Lk 1,69Lk 1,71Lk 1,77Lk 2,30Apg 28,28Tit 2,11

7 He said therefore to the crowds that came out to be baptized by him, “You brood of vipers! Who warned you to flee from the wrath to come? (Ps 140,3; Mt 12,34; Mt 23,33; Röm 5,9; Eph 5,6; Kol 3,6; 1Thess 1,10)

Ps 140,3Mt 12,34Mt 23,33Röm 5,9Eph 5,6Kol 3,61Thess 1,10

8 Bear fruits in keeping with repentance. And do not begin to say to yourselves, ‘We have Abraham as our father.’ For I tell you, God is able from these stones to raise up children for Abraham. (Lk 4,3; Joh 8,39; Apg 26,20) 9 Even now the axe is laid to the root of the trees. Every tree therefore that does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire.” (Mt 7,19; Lk 13,7; Lk 13,9; Joh 15,2; Joh 15,6)

Mt 7,19Lk 13,7Lk 13,9Joh 15,2Joh 15,6

10 And the crowds asked him, “What then shall we do?” (Apg 2,37; Apg 16,30; Apg 22,10) 11 And he answered them, “Whoever has two tunics^[2] is to share with him who has none, and whoever has food is to do likewise.” (Jes 58,7; Dan 4,27; Lk 18,22; Eph 4,28; Jak 2,15; 1Joh 3,17)

Jes 58,7Dan 4,27Lk 18,22Eph 4,28Jak 2,151Joh 3,17

12 Tax collectors also came to be baptized and said to him, “Teacher, what shall we do?” (Mt 21,32; Lk 3,10; Lk 7,29) 13 And he said to them, “Collect no more than you are authorized to do.” (Lk 19,8) 14 Soldiers also asked him, “And we, what shall we do?” And he said to them, “Do not extort money from anyone by threats or by false accusation, and be content with your wages.” (Lk 3,10; Lk 3,13; 1Kor 9,7) 15 As the people were in expectation, and all were questioning in their hearts concerning John, whether he might be the Christ, (Mt 1,17; Joh 1,19) 16 John answered them all, saying, “I baptize you with water, but he who is mightier than I is coming, the strap of whose sandals I am not worthy to untie. He will baptize you with the Holy Spirit and fire. (Jes 5,27; Mal 3,2; Joh 1,15; Joh 1,26; Joh 1,27; Joh 1,33; Joh 3,30; Apg 1,5; Apg 2,3; Apg 11,16; Apg 13,25)

17 His winnowing fork is in his hand, to clear his threshing floor and to gather the wheat into his barn, but the chaff he will burn with unquenchable fire.” (Jes 30,24; Mal 4,1; Mt 13,30; Mk 9,43; Mk 9,48)

Jes 30,24Mal 4,1Mt 13,30Mk 9,43Mk 9,48

18 So with many other exhortations he preached good news to the people. (Joh 20,30; Joh 21,25) 19 But Herod the tetrarch, who had been reproved by him for Herodias, his brother’s wife, and for all the evil things that Herod had done, (Mt 14,3; Mk 6,17; Lk 3,1) 20 added this to them all, that he locked up John in prison. (Joh 3,24) 21 Now when all the people were baptized, and when Jesus also had been baptized and was praying, the heavens were opened, (Mt 3,13; Mk 1,9; Joh 1,32; Apg 7,56)

Mt 3,13Mk 1,9Joh 1,32Apg 7,56

22 and the Holy Spirit descended on him in bodily form, like a dove; and a voice came from heaven, “You are my beloved Son;^[3] with you I am well pleased.”^[4] (Ps 2,7; Jes 42,1; Lk 4,18; Lk 4,21; Lk 9,35; Joh 12,28; Apg 10,38; Eph 1,6; Kol 1,13; 2Petr 1,17; 1Joh 5,9)

John the Baptist prepares the way

1 In the fifteenth year of the reign of Tiberius Caesar – when Pontius Pilate was governor of Judea, Herod 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, the word of God came to John son of Zechariah in the wilderness. 3 He went into all the country around the Jordan, preaching a baptism of repentance for the forgiveness of sins. 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.” ’ (Jes 40,3) 7 John said to the crowds coming out to be baptised by him, ‘You brood of vipers! Who warned you to flee from the coming wrath? 8 Produce fruit in keeping with repentance. And do not begin to say to yourselves, “We have Abraham as our father.” For I tell you that out of these stones God can raise up children for Abraham. 9 The axe has been laid to the root of the trees, and every tree that does not produce good fruit will be cut down and thrown into the fire.’ 10 ‘What should we do then?’ 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.’ 12 Even tax collectors came to be baptised. ‘Teacher,’ they asked, ‘what should we do?’ 13 ‘Don’t collect any more than you are required to,’ 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 – be content with your pay.’ 15 The people were waiting expectantly and were all wondering in their hearts if John might possibly be the Messiah. 16 John answered them all, ‘I baptise you with^[1] water. But one who is more powerful than I will come, the straps of whose sandals I am not worthy to untie. He will baptise you with^[2] the Holy Spirit and fire. 17 His winnowing fork 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.’ 18 And with many other words John exhorted the people and proclaimed the good news to them. 19 But when John rebuked Herod 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.

The baptism and genealogy of Jesus

21 When all the people were being baptised, Jesus was baptised too. And as he was praying, heaven was opened 22 and the Holy Spirit descended on him in bodily form like a dove. And a voice came from heaven: ‘You are my Son, whom I love; with you I am well pleased.’ 23 Now Jesus himself was about thirty years old when he began his ministry. He was the son, so it was thought, of Joseph, the son of Heli, 24 the son of Matthat, the son of Levi, the son of Melki, the son of Jannai, the son of Joseph, 25 the son of Mattathias, the son of Amos, the son of Nahum, the son of Esli, the son of Naggai, 26 the son of Maath, the son of Mattathias, the son of Semein, the son of Josek, the son of Joda, 27 the son of Joanan, the son of Rhesa, the son of Zerubbabel, the son of Shealtiel, the son of Neri, 28 the son of Melki, the son of Addi, the son of Cosam, the son of Elmadam, the son of Er, 29 the son of Joshua, the son of Eliezer, the son of Jorim, the son of Matthat, the son of Levi, 30 the son of Simeon, the son of Judah, the son of Joseph, the son of Jonam, the son of Eliakim, 31 the son of Melea, the son of Menna, the son of Mattatha, the son of Nathan, the son of David, 32 the son of Jesse, the son of Obed, the son of Boaz, the son of Salmon,^[3] the son of Nahshon, 33 the son of Amminadab, the son of Ram,^[4] the son of Hezron, the son of Perez, the son of Judah, 34 the son of Jacob, the son of Isaac, the son of Abraham, the son of Terah, the son of Nahor, 35 the son of Serug, the son of Reu, the son of Peleg, the son of Eber, the son of Shelah, 36 the son of Cainan, the son of Arphaxad, the son of Shem, the son of Noah, the son of Lamech, 37 the son of Methuselah, the son of Enoch, the son of Jared, the son of Mahalalel, the son of Kenan, 38 the son of Enosh, the son of Seth, the son of Adam, the son of God.

John the Baptist prepares the way

1 Tiberius Caesar had been ruling for 15 years. Pontius Pilate was governor of Judea. Herod was the ruler of Galilee. His brother Philip was the ruler of Iturea and Traconitis. Lysanias was ruler of Abilene. 2 Annas and Caiaphas were high priests. At that time God’s word came to John, son of Zechariah, in the desert. 3 He went into all the countryside around the River Jordan. There he preached that people should be baptised and turn away from their sins. Then God would forgive them. 4 Here is what is written in the book of Isaiah the prophet. It says, ‘A messenger is calling out in the desert, “Prepare the way for the Lord. Make straight paths for him. 5 Every valley will be filled in. Every mountain and hill will be made level. The crooked roads will become straight. The rough ways will become smooth. 6 And all people will see God’s salvation.” ’ (Jes 40,3) 7 John spoke to the crowds coming to be baptised by him. He said, ‘You are like a nest of poisonous snakes! Who warned you to escape the coming of God’s anger? 8 Live in a way that shows you have turned away from your sins. And don’t start saying to yourselves, “Abraham is our father.” I tell you, God can raise up children for Abraham even from these stones. 9 The axe is already lying at the roots of the trees. All the trees that don’t produce good fruit will be cut down. They will be thrown into the fire.’ 10 ‘Then what should we do?’ the crowd asked. 11 John answered, ‘Anyone who has extra clothes should share with the one who has none. And anyone who has extra food should do the same.’ 12 Even tax collectors came to be baptised. ‘Teacher’, they asked, ‘what should we do?’ 13 ‘Don’t collect any more than you are required to,’ John told them. 14 Then some soldiers asked him, ‘And what should we do?’ John replied, ‘Don’t force people to give you money. Don’t bring false charges against people. Be happy with your pay.’ 15 The people were waiting. They were expecting something. They were all wondering in their hearts if John might be the Messiah. 16 John answered them all, ‘I baptise you with water. But one who is more powerful than I am will come. I’m not good enough to untie the straps of his sandals. He will baptise you with the Holy Spirit and fire. 17 His pitchfork is in his hand to toss the straw away from his threshing-floor. He will gather the wheat into his barn. But he will burn up the husks with fire that can’t be put out.’ 18 John said many other things to warn the people. He also announced the good news to them. 19 But John found fault with Herod, the ruler of Galilee, because of his marriage to Herodias. She was the wife of Herod’s brother. John also spoke strongly to Herod about all the other evil things he had done. 20 So Herod locked John up in prison. Herod added this sin to all his others.

King James Version

1 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, 2 Annas and Caiaphas being the high priests, the word of God came unto John the son of Zacharias in the wilderness. 3 And he came into all the country about Jordan, preaching the baptism of repentance for the remission of sins; 4 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. 5 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; 6 And all flesh shall see the salvation of God. 7 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? 8 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. 9 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, 24 Which was the son of Matthat, which was the son of Levi, which was the son of Melchi, which was the son of Janna, which was the son of Joseph, 25 Which was the son of Mattathias, which was the son of Amos, which was the son of Naum, which was the son of Esli, which was the son of Nagge, 26 Which was the son of Maath, which was the son of Mattathias, which was the son of Semei, which was the son of Joseph, which was the son of Juda, 27 Which was the son of Joanna, which was the son of Rhesa, which was the son of Zorobabel, which was the son of Salathiel, which was the son of Neri, 28 Which was the son of Melchi, which was the son of Addi, which was the son of Cosam, which was the son of Elmodam, which was the son of Er, 29 Which was the son of Jose, which was the son of Eliezer, which was the son of Jorim, which was the son of Matthat, which was the son of Levi, 30 Which was the son of Simeon, which was the son of Juda, which was the son of Joseph, which was the son of Jonan, which was the son of Eliakim, 31 Which was the son of Melea, which was the son of Menan, which was the son of Mattatha, which was the son of Nathan, which was the son of David, 32 Which was the son of Jesse, which was the son of Obed, which was the son of Booz, which was the son of Salmon, which was the son of Naasson, 33 Which was the son of Aminadab, which was the son of Aram, which was the son of Esrom, which was the son of Phares, which was the son of Juda, 34 Which was the son of Jacob, which was the son of Isaac, which was the son of Abraham, which was the son of Thara, which was the son of Nachor, 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, 38 Which was the son of Enos, which was the son of Seth, which was the son of Adam, which was the son of God.
