1 Hatnavah Sizar Augustus ni talaivan milu parei hanelah kâ a poe.
Now it happened in those days, that a decree went out from Caesar Augustus that the whole empire should be enrolled.

This was the first enrollment made when Quirinius was governor of Syria.

All went to enroll themselves, everyone to his own city.
4 Devit e catoun lah kaawm e Joseph hoi a ham tangcoung lah kaawm e Meri teh min poe hanelah,
Joseph also went up from Galilee, out of the city of Nazareth, into Judea, to the city of David, which is called Bethlehem, because he was of the house and family of David;
5 Galilee ram Nazareth kho koehoi Judah ram Bethlehem telah min poe e Devit kho lah a cei roi. Hatnavah Meri e a von thung e camo teh a tang toe.
to enroll himself with Mary, who was pledged to be married to him, being pregnant.
6 Bethlehem kho ao navah, camo khe nahan hnin a kuep toung dawkvah camin teh a khe.
It happened, while they were there, that the day had come that she should give birth.
7 A kâhat nahane hmuen ao hoeh dawkvah, camo teh hni hoi a kayo teh maito dokko dawk a pâ i roi.
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 Hote ram dawk, tukhoumnaw ni khohmo vah amamae tuhu hah kahrawngum vah a ring awh.
There were shepherds in the same country staying in the field, and keeping watch by night over their flock.
9 Hatnavah Cathut e kalvantami buet touh ahnimouh koe a kamnue teh Cathut e raeng teh atengpam pheng a ang dawkvah, ahnimouh teh a lungtâsue awh teh a taki awh.
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 Sahnin vah, Devit kho dawk, rungngangkung Bawi Khrih teh a khe toe.
For there is born to you, this day, in the city of David, a Savior, who is Christ, the Lord.
12 Nangmouh ni bangtelah hoi maw na panue awh han tetpawiteh, camo teh hni hoi a kayo vaiteh maito dokko dawk a payan e na hmu awh han telah atipouh.
This is the sign to you: you will find a baby wrapped in strips of cloth, lying in a feeding trough."
13 Hatnavah, kalvantaminaw hoi kalvanlae ransahu a kamnue awh teh, Bawipa a pholen awh.
Suddenly, there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly army praising God, and saying,
14 Cathut teh lathoung poung lah bawilennae awm lawiseh. Talai van roumnae awm lawiseh, telah a ti awh.
"Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good will toward humankind."

And it happened that when the angels went away from them into the sky, the shepherds said one to another, "Let us go to Bethlehem, now, and see this thing that has happened, which the Lord has made known to us."
16 Hathnukkhu, ahnimanaw teh karanglah a cei awh teh, Joseph hoi Meri ni maito dokko dawk a pâ i e camo hah a hmu awh.
They came with haste, and found both Mary and Joseph, and the baby was lying in the feeding trough.
17 A hmu hnukkhu hoi amamouh ni a thai e camo e a kong hah hmuen tangkuem koe a pâpho awh.
When they saw it, they made known the saying which was spoken to them about this child.
18 Tukhoumnaw ni, a dei e lawk kathainaw pueng ni kângai lah a ru awh.
All who heard it wondered at the things which were spoken to them by the shepherds.
19 Meri teh hote a konglamnaw pueng a pâkuem teh luepluep a pouk.
But Mary kept all these sayings, pondering them in her heart.
20 Tukhoumnaw teh amamouh koe pâpho pouh e patetlah a hmu awh navah Cathut a pholen awh teh a ban awh.
The shepherds returned, glorifying and praising God for all the things that they had heard and seen, just as it was told them.
21 Ataroe hnin a pha navah camo teh vuensoma awh, camo a von hoeh nahlan vah kalvantami ni min poe e patetlah Jisuh telah a phung awh.
When eight days were fulfilled to circumcise him, his name was called Jesus, which was given by the angel before he was conceived in the womb.
22 Hathnukkhu hoi Mosi e kâlawk patetlah kâpasu thoungnae hnin a kuep navah, a manu hoi a na pa ni camo teh Jerusalem kho lah a ceikhai roi.
When the days of their purification according to the Law of Moses were fulfilled, they brought him up to Jerusalem, to present him to the Lord

(as it is written in the Law of the Lord, "Every male who opens the womb will be called holy to the Lord"),
24 Âbakhu kahni touh hoi thuengnae na sak han telah kâlawk dawk a dei e patetlah a sak awh.
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."

And look, there was a man in Jerusalem whose name was Simeon. This man was righteous and devout, looking for the consolation of Israel, and the Holy Spirit was on him.
26 Ahni teh Bawipa Khrih hah na hmu hoehnahlan na dout mahoeh telah, Kathoung Muitha e pâpho pouh e ka coe e tami lah ao.
It had been revealed to him by the Holy Spirit that he should not see death before he had seen the Lord's Christ.
27 Hatnavah, ahni teh Muitha lahoi bawkim dawk a cei teh, a manu hoi a na pa ni Camo teh kâlawk patetlah sak hanelah a hrawi roi.
He came in the Spirit into the temple. When the parents brought in the child, Jesus, that they might do concerning him according to the requirement of the Law,
28 Simeon ni ahni hah a tawm teh, Cathut a pholen.
then he received him into his arms, and blessed God, and said,
29 Bawipa, na lawk patetlah nange na san kai lungmawngnae ka hmu toe.
"Now you are releasing your servant, Lord, according to your word, in peace;
30 Bangkongtetpawiteh, Bawipa e miphunnaw tawmdawm hanelah hai thoseh,

and Simeon blessed them, and said to Mary, his mother, "Look, this child is set for the falling and the rising of many in Israel, and for a sign which is spoken against.
35 Taminaw e pouknae pueng a kamnue nahanelah, na lungthin hai tahloi ni a sei han telah a dei.
Yes, a sword will pierce through your own soul, that the thoughts of many hearts may be revealed."
36 Asher miphun, Fanuel e canu Anna telah a min kâphung e profet napui a kum kacue e buet touh ao. Ahni teh a vâ hoi kum sari touh ao hnukkhu hoi,
There was one Anna, a prophetess, the daughter of Penuel, of the tribe of Asher (she was of a great age, having lived with a husband seven years from her virginity,
37 a kum, rui taroe kum pali totouh lahmai lah ao teh, ratoumnae hoi rawcahainae lahoi yah, khohmo khodai Cathut koe a kâpoe teh bawkim dawk ao.
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.

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 Jerusalem.

When they had accomplished all things that were according to the Law of the Lord, they returned into Galilee, to their own city, Nazareth.
40 Camo hai a roung teh lungangnae hoi akawi. Cathut e lungmanae teh ahni dawk ao.
The child was growing, and was becoming strong, being filled with wisdom, and the favor of God was upon him.

His parents went every year to Jerusalem at the feast of the Passover.
42 Jisuh kum hlaikahni touh a pha navah pawi e singyoe patetlah Jerusalem kho lah a cei awh teh,
When he was twelve years old, they went up according to the custom of the feast,
43 pawi a baw hnukkhu vah a manu hoi a na pa teh a ban roi nah, camo Jisuh teh Jerusalem khovah ao e hah panuek roi hoeh.
and when they had fulfilled the days, as they were returning, the boy Jesus stayed behind in Jerusalem. His parents did not know it,
44 A huikonaw hoi a tho mue telah a pouk dawkvah hnin touh lamcei a cei awh toe.
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 Camo teh a huikonaw koe ao hoeh toung dawkvah, Jerusalem kho lah bout a ban roi.
When they did not find him, they returned to Jerusalem, looking for him.
46 Hnin thum touh a ro hnukkhu vah, Jisuh teh bawkim dawk kacangkhainaw e rahak a tahung teh ahnimanaw hoi lawk kâ pacei awh e hah a manu hoi a na pa ni a hmu roi.
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 Jisuh e lungangnae hoi panuenae lawk ka thai e naw pueng ni a kângairu awh.
All who heard him were amazed at his understanding and his answers.

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 Jisuh ni bangkongmaw kai khuek na tawng roi vaw, kai teh a Pa e im dawk ka o han tie hah na panuek hoeh na maw.
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 Hateiteh, Jisuh ni a dei e a manu hoi a na pa ni thai panuek roi hoeh.
They did not understand the saying which he spoke to them.
51 Hattoteh Jisuh ni ahnimouh koe a cei van teh Nazareth kho a pha navah a manu hoi a na pa e kâ a ngai pouh. A manu ni teh hete a konglamnaw pueng a lungthin dawk khik a pâkuem.
And he went down with them, and came to Nazareth. He was subject to them, and his mother kept all these sayings in her heart.
52 Jisuh teh thoumthai lungangnae dawk a roung teh, Cathut hmalah hoi tami hmalah, minhmai kahawi a hmu.
And Jesus increased in wisdom and stature, and in favor with God and people.
