Lucas 1
1 Á cána que sares han penchabado chibar de pacuaró a narracion es buchías que andré amángue han sinado quereladas.
My noble [friend] Theophilus, many people saw the things that [Jesus] did while he was with us, from the time when he started [MTY] [his ministry]. They served God [by teaching people] the message [about the Lord Jesus]. Many of those who heard what they taught wrote down for us accounts of the things that [Jesus did from the time when] he began [his ministry].
2 Sásta junos as penáron á amángue sos desde o principio as diqueláron sa’ desquerias aquías, y sináron ministres e varda.
3 Pre o matéjo ha parecido lachó á mángue, despues de orotar mistós sasta se las quereláron desde o principio, libanartelas de pacuaró, ó baro Theophilo.
I myself have studied these accounts carefully. So I decided that it would be good for me also to write for you [(sg)] an accurate account of these matters.
4 Somia que pincharéles a chachipen de ocolas buchías andré que has sinado instruido.
I want you to know the truth about what you have been taught {what others have taught you}.
5 Sinaba andré os chibéses de Herodes, Crállis de Judea; yeque erajai, sos se hetó Zacharias, e baji de Abías, y desqueri romi es dugidas de Aaron, y o nao de ocóna Elisabeth.
When King Herod [the Great ruled] Judea [district], there was a [Jewish] priest named Zechariah. He belonged to the [group of priests called] the Abijah group. He and his wife Elizabeth were both descended from the [first priest of Israel], Aaron.
6 Y sinaban os dui lachés anglal de Debél, pirando bi grecos andré os sares mandamientos y eschastras e Erañoró.
[God considered that] both of them were righteous, because they constantly completely obeyed everything that God had commanded.
7 Y na terelaban chaboro, presas Elisabeth sinaba estéril, y os dui chalados dur andré sus chibéses.
But they had no children, because Elizabeth had been unable to bear children. Furthermore, she and her husband were very old.
8 Y anacó que querelando Zacharias desquero ministerio anglal de Debél andré o orden de desqueri begai,
One day [Zechariah’s] group was doing their work [in the Temple in Jerusalem], and he was serving as a priest in God’s presence.
9 Segun o costumbre es erajais, sicabó por desquerí baji á chibar o incienso, chalando andré a cangri e Erañoró.
Following their custom, [the other priests] chose him by lot to enter the Lord’s temple and burn incense.
10 Y os hambés catanés sinaban abrí manguelando á Un-debél á la ocana e incienso.
While he was burning the incense, many people were outside [in the courtyard], praying.
11 Y dicó al Manfariel e Erañoró, sinando en pindré á la bastarí e altar e incienso.
Then an angel whom God had [sent] appeared to him. The angel was standing at the right side of the place [where the priests burned] incense.
12 Y Zacharias al dicarle cangueló, y peró dal opré ó.
When Zechariah saw the angel, he was startled and became very afraid.
13 Tami o Manfariel le penó: Na darañeles Zacharias, presas tirias ocanagimias han sinado juneladas: y tiri romi Elisabeth chindará á tucue yeque chaboro, y araquelarás desquero nao Juan.
But the angel said to him, “Zechariah, do not be afraid! When you [(sg)] prayed [asking God for a son] (OR, [that God would send the Messiah]), God heard what you prayed. [So] your wife Elizabeth shall bear a son. You must name him John.
14 Y terelarás pesquital y alegría, y se asaselarán baribustres manuces andré desquero nacimiento.
He will cause you to be very happy, and many other people will also be happy because he is born.
15 Presas sinará haro anglal o Erañoró; y na piyará mol ni peñacoró, y sinará perelaló e Peniche desde as poriás de sun dai.
God will consider him to be very important. He must never drink wine or any other alcoholic drink, [in order that he will be completely dedicated to God]. He will be controlled by the Holy Spirit {The Holy Spirit will control him} from before he is born.
16 Y á baribústres es chabores de Israel querelará limbidiar al Erañó, o Debél de junós.
He will [persuade] many people in Israel to turn away [from their sins and please] the Lord their God.
17 Presas ó chalará anglal de ó sa’ la suncai y sila de Elias, somia querelar limbidiar os carlochines es batuces á os chabores, y os sos na pachibélan al drun es majarés, somia preparar al Erañó una sueti perfecta.
As [God’s] Spirit enables him [to preach] powerfully as [the prophet] Elijah did, he will precede [the Messiah]. He will cause parents [SYN] to act [peacefully] toward their children [again]. He will cause [many] people who do not obey [God to hear and obey] the wise things that righteous people [tell them]. He will do this in order to help [many] people to be ready when the Lord [comes].”
18 Y penó Zacharias al Manfariel: ¿en que pincharé ocóno? presas menda sinelo puró, y minri romí sinela dur andré desqueres chibéses.
Then Zechariah said to the angel, “I am very old, and my wife is also so old [that she cannot bear a child. So] (I cannot [believe] that what you [(sg)] said [will happen]!/how can I [believe] that what you [(sg)] said [will happen]?) [RHQ]”
19 Y rudeló o Manfariel y penó: sinelo Gabriel, sos asisto anglal de Debél: y sinelo bichabado á penarte, y á lanarte ocóna nueva lachi.
Then the angel said to him, “I am [God’s chief angel], Gabriel! [I do what God tells me, because] I constantly am in God’s presence! I was sent {[He] sent me} to tell you [(sg)] something good [that is going to happen to you].
20 Y tucue sinarás musilé, y no astisararás chamuliar disde o chibés andré sos ocóno sinará querelado, presas na pachibelaste á minrias vardas, sos se cumplirán á sun chiros.
What I have told you will certainly happen at the time [God decides], but you did not believe what I told you. So now [God will make] you will be unable to talk until the day [your son is born]”!
21 Y os manuces sinaban ujarando á Zacharias: y os sares zibaban de que tasiabase ó andré a cangri.
While [Zechariah and the angel] were talking, the people [in the courtyard] were waiting for Zechariah [to come out]. They wondered, “Why is he staying in the Temple for such a long time?”
22 Y pur se sicobó abrí, na les astisaraba chamuliar; y chaneláron que habia dicado buchí andré a cangri, y ó lo penó por simaches, y sinaba musilé.
When Zechariah came out, he was not able to speak to the people. Because he could not talk, he made motions with his hands [to try to convey what had happened]. Then they realized that he had seen (a vision [from God]/something that [God] showed him) while he was in the Temple.
23 Y pur sináron cumplidos os chibéses de desquero ministerio, se chaló á su quer.
When Zechariah’s time to work [as a priest in the Temple] was finished, he [left Jerusalem and] returned to his home.
24 Y á la anda de ocónos chibéses se dicó cambri Elisabeth a romi de ó, y sinaba escondida pansch chonos, penando:
Some time later his wife Elizabeth became pregnant [EUP]. She did not leave their house for five months, [because she knew that people would laugh at her if she told them that she was pregnant].
25 Presas o Erañó me ha querelado ocono andré os chibéses, en que penchabó á nicabar minrio oprobio de enré os manuces.
But she thought, “God has enabled me to become pregnant. He has pitied me and I will no longer be ashamed [because I have no children]!”
26 Y al zobio chonos o Manfariel Gabriel sinaba bichabado de Debél á yeque foros de Galiléa, sos se hetó Nazareth,
When Elizabeth had been [pregnant] [EUP] [for almost] six months, the angel Gabriel was sent by God {God sent the angel Gabriel} [again].
27 A yeque bedori romandiñada sat manu, sos se hetó Joseph, e quer de David, y o nao e bedori sinaba Maria.
[This time] he went to Nazareth [town] in Galilee [district], to a virgin whose name was Mary. It had been {[Her parents] had} promised that she would marry a man named Joseph, who was descended from [King] David.
28 Y pur chaló o Manfariel andré, anduque sinaba, penó: Un-debél te diñele golipén, perelali de gracia: O Erañó con tucue: Majari tucue enré as cadchiás.
The angel greeted her and said, “(The Lord/God) is with you [(sg)] and you will be greatly blessed {[has decided to] greatly bless you}!”
29 Y pur siró juneló ocono, se darañó sat as vardas de ó, y penchababa, que salutacion sinaba ocola.
But Mary was very confused [when she heard] that. She wondered what [the angel meant] by these words.
30 Y o Manfariel le penó: na cangueles Maria, presas has alachado gracia anglal de Debél.
Then the angel said to her, “Mary, God is very pleased with you [(sg)], so do not be afraid.
31 He acoi concebirás andré tiro chepo, y chindarás chaboro, y araquerarás desquero nao Jesus.
You will become pregnant and bear a son, and you must name him Jesus.
32 Ocóla sinará baro, y sinará araquerado chaboro e Udscho, y le diñará Un-debél Erañó o throno de David desquero batu;
He will become great. He will be called {[People will] call him} (the Son of God/the man who is also God). God, the Lord, will make him a king [MTY] as his ancestor [King] David was.
He will be the King of [the] Jews, the descendants [MTY] of [your ancestor] Jacob, forever. He will rule as king forever!” (aiōn g165)
34 Y penó Maria al Manfariel: ¿Sasta sinará, ocono? y menda na pincharelo manu.
Then Mary said to the angel, “I am a virgin, so how can I [have a baby]?”
35 Y rudelando o Manfariel, penó: se bestelará opré tucue, y te querelará sombra a sila e Udscho. Y por ocono o Majaro, sos se chindará de tucue, sinará araquerado Chaboro de Debél.
The angel replied, “The Holy Spirit will come to you; the power of God [MTY/EUP] will overshadow you [and enable you to become pregnant]. So the child [you will] bear will be completely set apart {give himself completely} to obey God, and he will be called {[people] will say that he is} (the Son of God/the man who is also God).
36 Y Elisabeth tiri cachicálli siró tambien sinela cambri de yeque chaboro, sinando puri: y ocono sinela o zobio chonos de siró, sos sinela araquerada a esteril.
[I also need to tell you something else]. Your cousin Elizabeth is very old, and it was thought {[people] said} that she could not bear any children. But she has been [pregnant] [EUP] [for almost] six months, and will bear a son!
37 Presas na sinela chi n’astis para Un-debél.
[You should not be surprised at that], because God can do everything!”
38 Y penó Maria: Menda a lacrí e Erañoró, querelese andré mangue segun tiri varda. Y se chaló o Manfariel.
Then Mary said, “All right, I want to serve (the Lord/God), so may what you [(sg)] have said about me come true!” Then the angel left her.
39 Y andré ocolas chibéses se ardiñó Maria y chaló al bur, á yeque foros e chim de Judá.
Very soon after that, Mary got ready and went quickly to a town in the highlands of Judea [district] where Zechariah lived.
40 Y chaló andré o quer de Zacharias, y saludisaró á Elisabeth.
She entered his house and greeted [his wife] Elizabeth.
41 Y pur Elisabeth juneló a salutacion de Maria, o chinoró diñó saltos andré desquero trupo: y sinaba Elisabeth perelalí e Peniche.
As soon as Elizabeth heard Mary greet her, the baby moved inside [Elizabeth’s] womb. The Holy Spirit took complete control of Elizabeth,
42 Y diñó yeque gole y penó: Majari tucue andré as cadchiás, y majaró o mibao e tiro trupo.
and she said loudly [to Mary], “[God] has blessed you [more than] he has blessed [any other] woman, and [he has] blessed the child you will bear!
43 De duque sinela ocono á mangue, que a Dai e minrio Erañó abillela á mangue?
(I am not worthy that [God would allow you] to visit me!/Why is [God allowing you] to visit me?) [RHQ] You will be the mother of my Lord!
44 Presas yescotria que bigoreó a varda de tiri salutacion á minres canés, o chinoró diñó saltos de pesquital andré minrio trupo.
[I realize this because] as soon as I heard you greet me, the baby inside my womb moved because he was so happy [that you had come].
45 Y majaró ma andré tun men, presas sinará querelado o saro ma fué penado á tucue de parte e Erañoró.
[God] is pleased with you [because] you believed that what (the Lord/God) told you would come true.”
46 Y penó Maria: Minri ochi engrandece al Erañó:
Then Mary [praised God by] saying/singing: “, how I [SYN] praise (the Lord/God)!
47 Y minri suncai se asaseló andré Debél minrío Salvador.
I am happy because God is the one who saves me.
48 Presás ha dicado a chinoría de desqueri lacrí: pues ya desde acana as sarias generaciones araquelarán mangue majari.
I was only his lowly servant girl, but he did not forget me. So from now on, everyone will say that God was pleased with me,
49 Ha querdi buchías bariás á mangue ó sos terela sila, y majaró o nao de ó.
because they will hear about the things that God [MTY], the mighty one, has done for me. He [MTY] is awesome!
50 Su canrea sinela de generacion andré generacion opré os sares que le darañelan.
He acts mercifully toward all those who respect him.
51 Queró sila sat su murcia: queró najar á os superbios sat as imaginaciones de sus carlochines.
He shows people that he [MTY] is very powerful. He scatters those who think proudly.
52 Queró á os silares perar sus besti, y ardiñó á os humildes.
He does not let mighty kings rule [MTY] any more, but he honors people who are oppressed (OR, humble).
53 Hinchió de buchias lachias á os que terelaban bóquis; y á os balbales mecó chichi.
He gives good things to eat to those who are hungry, but he sends away the rich people without giving them anything.
54 Ustiló andré sun chepó á Israel sun lacró, enjallandose de sun canrea.
And now he has remembered what he promised. So he has helped me and all the other people of [MTY] Israel who serve him.
He promised to Abraham and all our other ancestors who descended from him that he would act mercifully toward them forever.” (aiōn g165)
56 Y Maria sinaba sat siró sasta trin chonos: y se limbidió á desquero quer.
Mary stayed with Elizabeth for about three months. Then she returned to her home.
57 Tami Elisabeth se le chaló o chiros de chindar, y chindó yeque chaboro.
When it was time for Elizabeth to give birth to her child, she bore a son.
58 Y juneláron os quiribés y os cachicállis de siró que o Erañó habia querelado canrea bari sat siró, y se alendáron sat siró.
Her neighbors and relatives heard how (the Lord/God) had greatly blessed her [by enabling her to bear a child], so they were happy along with [Elizabeth].
59 Y sinaba que al otoró chibés abilláron á chinar o postin e quilén al chaboró, y le araqueráron del nao de desquero batu, Zacharias.
Seven days later they gathered together for the [ceremony for] circumcising the baby [to show that he belonged to God]. They wanted to give the baby the same name as his father, Zechariah.
60 Y rudelando desqueri dai, penó: nanai, sino Juan sinará araquerado.
But his mother said, “No, [his name will not be Zechariah]. His name will be John!”
61 Y le penáron: cayque sinela andré tiri ráti, sos se heta sat ocola nao.
[So] they said to her, “[John] is not the name of any of your [(dl)] relatives, [so you(dl) should not give him that name]!”
62 Y pucháron por simaches al batu e chaboro, como camelaba que se le araquerase.
Then they made motions with their hands to Zechariah, [for him] to indicate what name [he] wanted to be given {to give} to his son.
63 Y mangando li, libanó, penando: Juan sinela su nao: y os sares se zibáron.
[So] he signaled that they [should give him] a tablet [to write on. When they gave him one], he wrote [on it], “His name is John.” All those [who were there] were surprised!
64 Y yescotria sinaba pendrabado desquero mui, y su chipe, y chamuliaba majarificando á Debél.
Immediately Zechariah was able to speak again [MTY], and he praised God.
65 Y peró dal opré os sares sunparales: y se penáron de sarias oconas buchias por os sares bures de Judéa.
All their neighbors were amazed/awestruck! They told other people who lived all over the highlands of Judea about what had happened.
66 Y os sares que as junelaban, as ujaraban andré sus carlochines, penando: ¿coin penchabais, que sinará ocona chaboro? Presas a baste e Erañoró sinaba sat ó.
Everyone who heard about it kept thinking about it. They were saying, “We wonder what will this child do [for God when] he [grows up] [RHQ]!” They wondered that because [from what had happened they were sure that] God would be helping that child [SYN] [in a powerful way].
67 Y Zacharias sun batu sinaba perelalo e Peniche, y garló baji, penando.
[After] Zechariah’s [son was born], Zechariah was completely directed by the Holy Spirit {the Holy Spirit completely directed Zechariah} as he spoke these words that came from God:
68 Majaró o Eraño Debél de Israel, presas abilló y diñó mestepé á sun sueti.
“Praise the Lord, the God whom we(inc) people of Israel worship, because he has come to set us, his people, free from our enemies.
69 Y ardiñó á amangue o rogos de golipen andré o quer de David sun lacró.
He is sending us someone who will powerfully [MTY] save us, someone who is descended from [MTY] King David, who served God well.
Long ago God caused his prophets to say that he would do that. (aiōn g165)
71 Mestepé de amáres daschmanuces, y de la baste de os sares que na camelan amangue.
He will rescue us from our enemies, and he will save us from the power of all those who hate us.
72 Somia querelar canrea sat amáres batuces, y ojararse de su majarí varda.
He will do this because he has not forgotten what he promised our ancestors; he made an agreement that he would act mercifully to us, their descendants.
73 O juramento sos juró á amaro batu Abraham, que ó diñaria á amangue;
That is what he strongly promised our ancestor Abraham that he would do.
74 Somia que listrabados de las bastes de amáres daschmanuces, le querelemos servicio bi dal,
God told him that we would be rescued {he would rescue us} from the power of our enemies, that he would enable us to serve him without being afraid,
75 André majaridad, y andré justicia anglal de ó, os sares chibeses de amári chipén.
that he would cause us to be completely dedicated to him, and enable us to live righteously all of our lives.”
76 Y tucue, chaboro, sinarás araquerado Propheta e muy Udscho, presas chalarás anglal la chiché e Erañoró, somia aparejar desqueres drunés:
[Then Zechariah said this to] his little son: “My child, you will be called {people will say that you are} a prophet whom God [MTY/EUP] has sent; you will begin your work before (the Lord/Messiah) comes; you will prepare people so that they will be ready for him. (OR, you will begin your work before the Messiah comes).
77 Somia diñar conocimiento de golipen á sun sueti para a remision de desqueres grecos.
You will tell God’s people how he will forgive them and save them from being punished for their sins.
78 Por as porias de canrea de amaro Debél con qué visitó amangue del Udscho e Oriente:
Our God will do that because he is very kind to us. Just like a new day begins when the sun rises [MET], God will do that new thing for us when the Messiah comes to us from heaven.
79 Somia diñar dut a junós sos bestelélan andré a rachi, y andré o butron de meripen: somia enseelar amáres pindrés á drun de paz.
People who do not know God [MET] are like those who sit in the darkness. They are afraid [MTY] that they will soon die. But when the Messiah tells us God’s message, it will be like causing such people to see a bright light. He will guide us [SYN] so that we will be living peacefully.”
80 Y o chaboro se querelaba baro, y sinaba querdi silnó andré suncai; y sinaba andré os desiertos, disde o chibes pur nichobeló á Israel.
[Later], Zechariah’s son grew up and became spiritually strong. Then he lived in a desolate region until he began to preach to the Israeli people.
