Ἐγένετο It came to pass δέ now ἐν in τῷ - βαπτισθῆναι having been baptized ἅπαντα all τόν the λαόν people, καί and Ἰησοῦ Jesus βαπτισθέντος having been baptized, καί and προσευχομένου having prayed, ἀνεῳχθῆναι was opened τόν the οὐρανόν heaven, καί and καταβῆναι descended τό the Πνεῦμα Spirit τό - Ἅγιον Holy σωματικῷ in a bodily εἴδει form ὡς as περιστεράν a dove ἐπ ̓ upon αὐτόν, Him, καί and φωνήν a voice ἐκ out of οὐρανοῦ heaven γενέσθαι· came: Σύ You εἶ are ὁ the Υἱός Son μου of Me, ὁ the ἀγαπητός, beloved; ἐν in σοί You εὐδόκησα.

Καί And ἦλθεν He came εἰς to Ναζαρά, Nazareth, οὗ where ἦν He had been τεθραμμένος, brought up; καί and εἰσῆλθεν He entered κατά according to τό the εἰωθός custom αὐτῷ to Him, ἐν on τῇ the ἡμέρᾳ day τῶν of the σαββάτων Sabbaths, εἰς into τήν the συναγωγήν synagogue, καί and ἀνέστη stood up ἀναγνῶναι. to read. καί And ἐπεδόθη there was given αὐτῷ to Him βιβλίον [the] scroll of τοῦ the προφήτου prophet Ἠσαΐου Isaiah, καί and ἀναπτύξας having unrolled τό the βιβλίον scroll, εὗρεν He found τόν the τόπον place οὗ where ἦν it was γεγραμμένον· written: Πνεῦμα [The] Spirit Κυρίου of [the] Lord [is] ἐπ ̓ upon ἐμέ Me, Οὗ of which εἵνεκεν because ἔχρισεν He has anointed με Me Εὐαγγελίσασθαι to preach good news πτωχοῖς, to [the] poor.
