< Lukas 2 >

1 Eta guerta cedin egun hetan ethor baitzedin ordenança-bat Cesar Augustoren partez, scribuz iar ledin mundua oro.
Now it happened in those days, that a decree went out from Caesar Augustus that the whole empire should be enrolled.
2 (Lehen descriptione haur eguin cedin Cyrenius Syriaco gobernadore cenean)
This was the first enrollment made when Qurinos was governor of Syria.
3 Eta ioaiten ciraden guciac scributan iartera, batbedera cein bere hirirát.
All went to enroll themselves, everyone to his own city.
4 Igan cedin bada Ioseph-ere Galileatic, Nazaretheco hiritic, Iudeara, Dauid-en ciuitate Bethlehem deitzen denera (ceren baitzén Dauid-en etchetic eta arraçatic)
Yauseph also went up from Galila, out of the city of Natsrath, into Yehuda, to the city of Dawid, which is called Beth-Lekhem, because he was of the house and family of Dawid;
5 Scributan iar ledinçát Maria emaztetan eman içan çayonarequin, cein baitzén içorra.
to enroll himself with Maryam, who was pledged to be married to him, being pregnant.
6 Eta guertha cedin hec han ciradela, compli baitzitecen haren ertzeco egunac.
It happened, while they were there, that the day had come that she should give birth.
7 Eta erdi cedin bere seme lehen iayoaz, eta bandatoz trocha ceçan hura, eta eçar ceçan mangederán, ceren ezpaitzén hayendaco lekuric ostalerián.
And she gave birth to her firstborn son, and wrapped him with pieces of cloth, and placed him in a feeding trough, because there was no guest room available for them.
8 Eta ciraden comarca berean artzain campoetan ceunçanac, eta gauazco veillác bere arthaldearen gainean beguiratzen cituztenac.
There were shepherds in the same country staying in the field, and keeping watch by night over their flock.
9 Eta huná, Iaunaren Aingueruä vstegaberic ethor cequién, eta Iaunaren gloriác argui ceçan hayén inguruän, eta icidura handiz ici citecen.
And look, an angel of the Lord stood by them, and the glory of the Lord shone around them, and they were terrified.
The angel said to them, "Do not be afraid, for see, I bring you good news of great joy which will be to all the people.
11 Ecen Dauid-en ciuitatean iayo çaiçuela Saluadorea, cein baita Christ Iauna.
For there is born to you, this day, in the city of Dawid, a Savior, who is Meshikha, the Lord.
12 Eta haur vkanen duçue seignale, eridenen baituçue haourra bandatoz trochatua, mangederán eçarria.
This is the sign to you: you will find a baby wrapped in strips of cloth, lying in a feeding trough."
13 Eta bertan Aingueruärequin eguin cedin armada celestial multzobat, laudatzen çutela Iaincoa, eta cioitela,
Suddenly, there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly army praising God, and saying,
14 Gloria ceru guciz goretan Iaincoari, eta lurrean baque, guiçonac baithara vorondate ona.
"Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good will toward humankind."
15 Eta guertha cedin, hetaric Aingueruäc cerurat ioan ciradenean, erran baitzeçaten artzainec elkarren artean, Goacen bada Bethlehemerano, eta dacussagun eguin içan den gauça haur, cein Iaunac iaquin eraci baitraucu.
And it happened that when the angels went away from them into the sky, the shepherds said one to another, "Let us go to Beth-Lekhem, now, and see this thing that has happened, which the Lord has made known to us."
16 Eta ethor citecen lehiatuqui, eta eriden citzaten Maria eta Ioseph, eta haourtchoa mangederán eçarria.
They came with haste, and found both Maryam and Yauseph, and the baby was lying in the feeding trough.
17 Eta ikussi vkan çutenean, publica ceçaten haourtchoaz erran içan çayena.
When they saw it, they made known the saying which was spoken to them about this child.
18 Eta ençun vkan cituzten guciéc mirets ceçaten hæy artzainéz erran içan çaizten gaucén gainean.
All who heard it wondered at the things which were spoken to them by the shepherds.
19 Eta Mariac beguiratzen cituen gauça hauc guciac, bere bihotzean ehaiten cituela.
But Maryam kept all these sayings, pondering them in her heart.
20 Eta itzul citecen artzainac, glorificatzen eta laudatzen çutela Iaincoa, ençun eta ikussi vkan cituzten gauça guciéz, erran içan cayen beçala.
The shepherds returned, glorifying and praising God for all the things that they had heard and seen, just as it was told them.
21 Eta complitu içan ciradenean haourtchoaren circonciditzeco çortzi egunac, orduan deithu içan da haren icena Iesus, nola deithu içan baitzén Aingueruäz, sabelean concebi cedin baino lehen.
When eight days were fulfilled to circumcise him, his name was called Yeshua, which was given by the angel before he was conceived in the womb.
22 Eta complitu içan ciradenean Mariaren purificationeco egunac Moysesen leguearen arauez, eraman ceçaten haourtchoa, Ierusalemera, Iaunari presenta lieçotençát.
When the days of their purification according to the Law of Mushe were fulfilled, they brought him up to Urishlim, to present him to the Lord
23 (Nola baita scribatua Iaunaren Leguean, Ar vme-vncia irequiten duen gucia, saindu Iaunari deithuren çayó)
(as it is written in the Law of the Lord, "Every male who opens the womb will be called holy to the Lord"),
24 Eta eman leçatençát oblationea, Iaunaren Leguean erran denaren araura, turturela pare-bat, edo bi vsso columba vme.
and to offer a sacrifice according to that which is said in the Law of the Lord, "A pair of turtledoves, or two young pigeons."
25 Eta huná, cen guiçombat Ierusalemen Simeon deitzen cenic: eta cen guiçon haur iusto eta Iaincoaren beldur, Israeleco consolationearen beguira cegoena: eta Spiritu saindua cen haren gainean.
And look, there was a man in Urishlim whose name was Shimon. This man was righteous and devout, looking for the consolation of Israyel, and the Rukha d'Qudsha was on him.
26 Eta denuntiatu içan çayón diuinoqui Spiritu sainduaz, etzuela herioric ikussiren, non lehen ikus ezleçan Christ Iaunarena.
It had been revealed to him by the Rukha d'Qudsha that he should not see death before he had seen the Lord's Meshikha.
27 Hura bada ethor cedin Spirituaz mouituric templera: eta sartzen çutela Iesus haourra bere aita-améc, haren causaz eguin leçatencát Legueco costumaren araura:
He came in the Rukha into the temple. When the parents brought in the child, Yeshua, that they might do concerning him according to the requirement of the Law,
28 Harc orduan har ceçan hura bere bessoetara, eta lauda ceçan Iaincoa, eta erran ceçan,
then he received him into his arms, and blessed God, and said,
29 Iauna, orain vtziten duc eure cerbitzaria, eure hitzaren araura baquez.
"Now you are releasing your servant, Lord, according to your word, in peace;
30 Ecen ikussi dié ene beguiéc hire saluagarria,
for my eyes have seen your salvation,
31 Cein preparatu baituc populu gucién beguitharte aitzinean.
which you have prepared before the face of all peoples;
32 Argui Gentiley arguitzecoa, eta Israeléco hire populuaren gloriá.
a light for revelation to the nations, and the glory of your people Israyel."
33 Eta haren aita eta ama miraz ceuden harçaz erraiten ciraden gaucéz.
And his father and his mother were marveling at the things which were spoken concerning him,
34 Eta benedica citzan Simeonec, eta erran cieçón haren ama Mariari, Huná, eçarri içan dun haur anhitzen destructionetan, eta anhitzen resurrectionetan Israelen, eta signotan ceini nehor contrastaturen baitzayo:
and Shimon blessed them, and said to Maryam, his mother, "Look, this child is set for the falling and the rising of many in Israyel, and for a sign which is spoken against.
35 Are eurorren arima-ere iraganen din ezpata batec, aguer ditecençát anhitz bihotzetaco pensamenduac.
Yes, a sword will pierce through your own soul, that the thoughts of many hearts may be revealed."
36 Bacén prophetessabat-ere Anna deitzen cenic Phanuel-en alaba, Aser-en leinuco, cein baitzén ia adin handitacoa, eta vici içan cen senharrarequin çazpi vrthez bere virginitateaz gueroztic.
There was one Khana, a prophetess, the daughter of Phanuel, of the tribe of Asher (she was of a great age, having lived with a husband seven years from her virginity,
37 Eta lauroguey eta laur vrtheren inguruco alharguna celaric, etzen partitzen templetic, barurez eta orationez cerbitzatzen çuela Iaincoa gau eta egun.
and she had been a widow for about eighty-four years), who did not depart from the temple, worshipping with fastings and petitions night and day.
38 Hunec-ere bada ordu berean ethorriric, laudatzen çuen Iauna, eta harçaz minço çayen redemptionearen beguira Ierusalemen ceuden guciey.
Coming up at that very hour, she gave thanks to God, and spoke of him to all those who were looking for the redemption of Urishlim.
39 Eta acabatu çutenean gucia Iaunaren Leguearen araura, itzul citecen Galileara, bere Nazaretheco hirira.
When they had accomplished all things that were according to the Law of the Lord, they returned into Galila, to their own city, Natsrath.
40 Eta haourtchoa handitzen cen eta spirituz fortificatzen, eta bethatzen cen sapientiaz: eta Iaincoaren gratiá cen haren gainean.
The child was growing, and was becoming strong, being filled with wisdom, and the favor of God was upon him.
41 Eta ioaiten ciraden haren aita-amác vrthe oroz Ierusalemera Bazco bestán.
His parents went every year to Urishlim at the feast of the Passover.
42 Eta hamabi vrthetara heldu cenean, igan citecen hec Ierusalemera bestaco costumaren arauez:
When he was twelve years old, they went up according to the custom of the feast,
43 Eta hartaco egunac complitu ciradenean, hec itzultzen ciradela, azquen cedin Iesus haourra Ierusalemen: eta etzaquión ohart Ioseph, ez bere ama:
and when they had fulfilled the days, as they were returning, the boy Yeshua stayed behind in Urishlim. His parents did not know it,
44 Baina vstez hura compainian cen, ioan citecen egun baten bidean: eta haren bilha çabiltzan ahaidén eta eçagunén artean.
but supposing him to be in the company, they went a day's journey, and they looked for him among their relatives and acquaintances.
45 Eta erideiten etzutenean, bihur citecen Ierusalemera, haren bilha çabiltzala.
When they did not find him, they returned to Urishlim, looking for him.
46 Eta guertha cedin, hirur egunen buruän eriden baitzeçaten hura templean, iarriric cegoela doctoren artean, hæy behatzen çayela eta hec interrogatzen cituela.
It happened after three days they found him in the temple, sitting in the midst of the teachers, both listening to them, and asking them questions.
47 Eta spantatzen ciraden hura ençuten çutén guciac, haren iaquinaren eta respostuén gainean.
All who heard him were amazed at his understanding and his answers.
48 Eta hura ikussiric spanta citecen: eta erran cieçón bere amác, Semé, cergatic horrela eguin draucuc? huná, hire aita eta ni keichuric hire bilha guiniabiltzán.
When they saw him, they were astonished, and his mother said to him, "Son, why have you treated us this way? Look, your father and I were anxiously looking for you."
49 Orduan dioste, Cergatic da ene bilha baitzinabiltzaten? etzinaquitén ecen neure Aitaren eguitecoetan occupatua behar dudala içan?
He said to them, "Why were you looking for me? Did you not know that I must be doing the works of my Father?"
50 Baina hec etzeçaten adi erran cerauen hitza.
They did not understand the saying which he spoke to them.
51 Orduan iauts cedin hequin, eta ethor cedin Nazarethera: eta cen hayen suiet: eta haren amac beguiratzen cituen hitz hauc gucioc bere bihotzean.
And he went down with them, and came to Natsrath. He was subject to them, and his mother kept all these sayings in her heart.
52 Eta Iesus auançatzen cen sapientiaz eta handitzez, eta gratiaz Iaincoa baithan eta guiçonac baithan.
And Yeshua increased in wisdom and stature, and in favor with God and people.
