OET Mal 3:1-4

3“Listen, I’m about to send my messenger and he’ll prepare the path ahead of me. Then the master who you’re all looking for will suddenly come to his temple, yes, the messenger who you are all happy about—the party to the agreement—he’ll come,” says army-commander Yahweh.[ref] 2But who could survive it when he comes? Who can stand when he appears, because he’ll be like the refiner’s fire and like the cleaners’ powerful soap?[ref] 3Yahweh will act as a refiner and purifier of silver, and he will purify Levi’s descendants the priestsyes, he’ll refine you all with fire like gold and silver, and you’ll bring offerings to him that are acceptable. 4After that, the offerings of the people of Yudah and Yerushalem will be pleasing to Yahweh, as in ancient times, and as in previous years.

OET Luke 1:67-79

1:1 Zacharias’ prophecy about Yohan

67Then the boy’s father, Zacharias, became filled with the holy spirit and prophesied,

68Blessed is the master, the god of Israel,

because he visited us and made a way for his people to be freed from slavery.

69He brought us a voice that would lead to our salvation,

us citizens of the nation of King David, his servant

70(as he spoke via the mouths of his holy prophets through the ages).

71He saved us from our enemies,

and from the power of all the ones hating us,

72to show mercy to our ancestors

and to remind them of his holy agreement,

73that he had promised Abraham, our ancestor, that he would give us.

74He rescued us from the power of our enemies,

so we could serve him without fear,

75committed to obeying him

for the rest of our lives.

76[ref]And you too my little child, will be called a prophet of the highest one—

going before the master to prepare his paths,

77to give knowledge about salvation to his people

so their sins can be forgiven

78because God has compassion on us and mercy.

Thus the light from heaven will visit us

79[ref]to shine on those in darkness and sitting in the shadow of death;

to guide us onto the road of peace.”


67And Zaⱪarias the father of_him, was_filled with_the_ holy _spirit and prophesied saying, 68Blessed is the_master the god of_ the _Israaʸl/(Yisrāʼēl), because he_visited and established redemption for_the people of_him, 69and raised a_horn of_salvation for_us, in the_house of_Dawid/(Dāvid), the_servant of_him, 70(as he_spoke by mouth the holy prophets of_him of the_age), 71salvation from of_the_enemies of_us, and from the_hand of_all the ones hating us, 72to_perform mercy with the fathers of_us, and to_be_reminded of_the_ holy _covenant of_him, 73the_oath which he_swore to Abraʼam/(ʼAⱱrāhām), the father of_us, which to_give to_us 74having_been_rescued out_of the_hand of_^our_enemies, to_be_ fearlessly, _serving unto_him 75in devoutness and righteousness before him, for_all the days of_us.
76And you also, little_child, will_be_being_called the_prophet of_the_highest:
for you_will_be_going_before before the_master to_prepare the_ways of_him,
77which to_give knowledge of_salvation to_the people of_him, in forgiveness of_sins of_them, 78because_of the_compassions of_the_mercy of_god of_us, in which the_rising from height will_be_visiting us, 79to_shine_upon upon_the ones in darkness and sitting in_the_shadow of_death, which to_direct the feet of_us into the_way of_peace.

OET Luke 3:1-6

3:1 Yohan-the-immerser’s preaching

(Yhn 1:19-28, Mark 1:1-8, Mat. 3:1-12)

3It was the fifteenth year of the rule of Caesar Tiberius when Pontius Pilate was the governor of Yudea and Herod was the ruler of the Galilean quarter. His brother Philip was the ruler of the Iturean quarter and of the region of Traconitis, and Lysanias was the ruler of the Abilene quarter. 2Annas and Caiaphas were the high priests in Yerushalem, and this was the time when Yohan (son of Zechariah) began preaching God’s message in the wilderness. 3He went around all the areas surrounding the Yordan River, telling the people that they could get immersed in water as a sign they were turning away from disobeying God and requesting forgiveness 4[ref]just like the prophet Isayah had written:

‘The voice shouting in the wilderness

prepare Yahweh’s road,

make his paths straight.

5Every valley will be filled up,

and every mountain and hill will be levelled off.

What’s crooked will be made straight,

and the rough roads will be made smooth.

6and everybody will see God’s salvation.’


3:4-6: Isa 40:3-5 (LXX).

3And in the_ fifteenth _year of_the government of_Tiberios Kaisar, Pontios Pilatos was governing of_ the _Youdaia, and Haʸrōdaʸs being_quarter_ruler of_ the _Galilaia/(Gālīl), And Filippos the brother of_him being_quarter_ruler of_ the _Itouraios and Traⱪōnitis region, and Lusanios the being_quarter_ruler of_Abilaʸnaʸ, 2during the_chief_priest of_Annas and Kaiafas, the_message of_god became on Yōannaʸs, the of_Zaⱪarias son, in the wilderness.
3And he_came into all the_surrounding_region of_the Yordanaʸs/(Yardēn), proclaiming a_immersion of_repentance for forgiveness of_sins, 4as it_has_been_written in the_scroll of_the_messages of_Aʸsaias/(Yəshaˊyāh) the prophet:
The_voice shouting in the wilderness prepare the way of_the_master, be_making the paths of_him straight.
5Every valley will_be_being_filled, and every mountain and hill will_be_being_brought_low, and the crooked will_be into straight, and the rough ways into smooth, 6and all flesh will_be_seeing the salvation of_ the _god.
