Luke 2
1 AND it came to pass in those days, that there went out a decree from Cæsar Augustus, that all the world should be taxed.
Woli ku nsiku ejo, yabhonekene ati Kaisali Agusito asosishe obhulaka naikati bhugegibhwe obhukumi bhwa bhanu bhona munsi.
2 (And this taxing was first made when Cyrenius was governor of Syria.)
Bhunu bhwaliga bhuli bhubhasi bhwo kwamba bhunu bhakolekene omwanya gunu Kilenio ali mukama wa Siliya.
3 And all went to be taxed, every one into his own city.
Kulwejo bhuli munu nagenda mumusi gwabho okubhalwa obhukumi.
4 And Joseph also went up from Galilee, out of the city of Nazareth, into Judæa, unto the city of David, which is called Bethlehem; (because he was of the house and lineage of David: )
Yusufu ona nasoka mumusi gwa Najaleti eyo Galilaya nasafili Yudeya mu musi gwa Beteleemu, gunu gwaliga nigumenyekana ati musi gwa Daudi, kulwokubha asokele mu luganda lwa Daudi.
5 To be taxed with Mary his espoused wife, being great with child.
Agendeleyo okwiyandika amwi na Maliyamu, unu aliga ali no bhuko nage naliga nibhenda obhona omwana.
6 And so it was, that, while they were there, the days were accomplished that she should be delivered.
Oli jabhonekene ati, bhachali eyo omwanya gwo kwibhula nigukinga.
7 And she brought forth her firstborn son, and wrapped him in swaddling clothes, and laid him in a manger; because there was no room for them in the inn.
Nebhula omwana we chilume, omwibhulwa wae owokwamba, namufwafya emyenda ataja kubhona mbeo omwana. Niwo namuta muchigoli echokulisishamo jintyanyi, kulwokubha bhatabhwene bhwanya mu nyumba ja bhagenyi.
8 And there were in the same country shepherds abiding in the field, keeping watch over their flock by night.
Mulubhala olwo, bhaliga bhalio abhalefi bhanu bhaliga bhekae mumashamba nibhalinda amaijo ga jinyabhalega jebhwe mungeta.
9 And, lo, the angel of the Lord came upon them, and the glory of the Lord shone round about them: and they were sore afraid.
Aonao, Malaika wa Latabhugenyi nabhabhonekela, na likusho lya Latabhugenyi ndinyenyegela okubheinda, nibhabha no bhubha muno.
10 And the angel said unto them, Fear not: for, behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy, which shall be to all people.
“Niwo malaika nabhabhwilati,”Mutaja kubhaya, kulwokubha enibhaletela emisango jo bhwana jinu ejija okuleta bhukondelewe bhunene ku bhanu bhona.
11 For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Saviour, which is Christ the Lord.
Lelo Omuchungusi ebhulwa ingulu yemwe mumusi gwa Daudi! omwene niwe Kilisto Latabhugenyi!
12 And this shall be a sign unto you; Ye shall find the babe wrapped in swaddling clothes, lying in a manger.
Chinu nicho echibhalikisho chinu omuja oyanwa, omuja okumusanga omwana abhoelwe emyenda na amamile mu chigoli cho kulebhela jintyanyi.”
13 And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising God, and saying,
Aonao nilibhao eijo enene elya mulwile nibha amwi na malaika oyo nibhamukusha Nyamuanga, nibhaikati,
14 Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good will toward men.
“Likusho libhe ku Nyamuanga unu ali ingulu muno, no mulembe gubhe muchalo ku bhanu bhona bhanu kakondelelwa nabho.”
15 And it came to pass, as the angels were gone away from them into heaven, the shepherds said one to another, Let us now go even unto Bethlehem, and see this thing which is come to pass, which the Lord hath made known unto us.
Bhejile bhamalaika bhamala okugenda mulwile, abhalefi nibhaikana abhene kwa bhene, Chigende woli eliya Betelehemu, chijolola chinu chabhonekana, chinu Latabhugenyi achimenyesha.”
16 And they came with haste, and found Mary, and Joseph, and the babe lying in a manger.
Nibhanguya okuja eliya, na nibhamusanga Maliamu na Yusufu, na nibhamulola omwana amamile muchigoli echokulisishamo jintyanyi.
17 And when they had seen it, they made known abroad the saying which was told them concerning this child.
Bhejile bhalola kutyo, nibhabhwila abhanu chinu bhaliga bhabhwiliwe ingulu yo mwana.
18 And all they that heard it wondered at those things which were told them by the shepherds.
Bhona bhonguhye emisango ejo nibhalugula chinu chaikilwe na bhalefi.
19 But Mary kept all these things, and pondered them in her heart.
Tali Maliyamu nagendelela okwiganilisha kujona jinu aligaonguhye, nagabhika mumwoyo gwae.
20 And the shepherds returned, glorifying and praising God for all the things that they had heard and seen, as it was told unto them.
Abhalefi nibhasubha nibhamukusha no kumukuya Nyamuanga ku lwa bhuli chinu chinu bhonguhye no kulola, lwakutyo jaiga jaikilwe kubhene.
21 And when eight days were accomplished for the circumcising of the child, his name was called JESUS, which was so named of the angel before he was conceived in the womb.
Lwejile okukinga olusiku lwa nane yaliga guli mwanya gwo kumutenda omwana, nibhamubhilikila Yesu, lisina linu ayanibhwe na malaika oyo achali na kujila nda,
22 And when the days of her purification according to the law of Moses were accomplished, they brought him to Jerusalem, to present him to the Lord;
Jejile jikalabhao jinsiku jo kusomoka, okulubhana na bhilagilo bhya Musa, Yusufu na Maliyamu nibhamusila mwi yekalu eliya Yelusalemi okumta imbele ya Latabhugenyi.
23 (As it is written in the law of the Lord, Every male that openeth the womb shall be called holy to the Lord; )
Lwakutyo jandikilwe mu bhilagilo bhya Latabhugenyi,”Bhuli mulume unu kamba okwibhulwa katogwa unu asosibhwe ku Latabhugenyi.”
24 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.
Abhenene ona bhejile okusosha echogo okulubhana na chinu chaikilwe mu bhilagilo bhya Latabhugenyi,”Njibha ebhili amwi bhana bhabhili bha jinguti.”
25 And, behold, there was a man in Jerusalem, whose name was Simeon; and the same man was just and devout, waiting for the consolation of Israel: and the Holy Ghost was upon him.
Lola, aliga alio munu umwi mu Yelusalemu unu abhilikilwaga lisina lyae Simiyoni. omunu unu aliga alimulengelesi na namulamyaga Nyamuanga. Omwene aliga nalinda okulola omusimbagilisha wa Isilaeli, no mwoyo mwelu aliga ali ingulu yae.
26 And it was revealed unto him by the Holy Ghost, that he should not see death, before he had seen the Lord’s Christ.
Aliga amalile okuswelulibhwa no mwoyo mwelu ati atakufwa achali kumulola Kilisto wa Latabhugenyi.
27 And he came by the Spirit into the temple: and when the parents brought in the child Jesus, to do for him after the custom of the law,
Lusiku lumwi ejile munda ya iyekalu, natangasibhwa no Mwoyo Mwelu. Anu abhebhusi nibhamuleta omwana, Yesu, okumukolela ganu galiga geile okulubhana ne bhilagilo,
28 Then took he him up in his arms, and blessed God, and said,
Niwo Simiyoni namulamila mumabhoko gae, na namukuya Nyamuanga naikati,
29 Lord, now lettest thou thy servant depart in peace, according to thy word:
“Woli numwikilishe omukosi wao agende kwo mulembe Latabhugenyi, okulubhana na ligambo lyao.
30 For mine eyes have seen thy salvation,
Kulwokubha ameso gani galola omwelulo gwao,
31 Which thou hast prepared before the face of all people;
Gunu ogubhonekana mumeso gabhanu bhona.
32 A light to lighten the Gentiles, and the glory of thy people Israel.
Omwene ni bhwelu bhwo obhuswelulo ku bhanu bha Maanga na likushyo kubhanu bha Isilaeli.”
33 And Joseph and his mother marvelled at those things which were spoken of him.
Esemwene na Nyilamwene nibhalugushwa na magambo ganu galomwaga ingulu yae.
34 And Simeon blessed them, and said unto Mary his mother, Behold, this child is set for the fall and rising again of many in Israel; and for a sign which shall be spoken against;
Niwo Simiyoni nabhasabhwila amabhando na naika ku nyila mwene Maliyamu ati,”Tegelesha kwo bhwenge! Omwana unu kaja kubha njuno yo kubhula no kukila kwa bhanu bhamfu mu Isilaeli na nichibhalikisho chinu bhanu bhamfu abhaja okuchilema.
35 (Yea, a sword shall pierce through thy own soul also, ) that the thoughts of many hearts may be revealed.
Nawe ni panga linu elisoma mumwoyo gwao omwene, koleleki obhwiganilisha bhwe mioyo ja bhamfu jibhonekane.”
36 And there was one Anna, a prophetess, the daughter of Phanuel, of the tribe of Aser: she was of a great age, and had lived with an husband seven years from her virginity;
Omulagi omugasi unu atogwaga Ana ona aliga alimo mwi yekalu. Omwene aliga ali muyala wa Fanueli okusoka muluganda lwa Asheli. Aliga ali ne miyaka myamfu muno. Ekae no mulume wae miyaka saba bhatwalene,
37 And she was a widow of about fourscore and four years, which departed not from the temple, but served God with fastings and prayers night and day.
Nio nafwilwa omulume nekala miyaka makumi munana nena. Omwene atasoka mwiyekalu na aliga nagendelela okumulamya Nyamuanga amwi no kusibha no kusabha, mungeta na mumwisi.
38 And she coming in that instant gave thanks likewise unto the Lord, and spake of him to all them that looked for redemption in Jerusalem.
Nakumwanya ogwo, ejile anu bhaliga bhali namba okumusima Nyamuanga. Alomele ingulu yo mwana kubhuli munu unu aliga nalinda omwelulo gwa Yelusalemi.
39 And when they had performed all things according to the law of the Lord, they returned into Galilee, to their own city Nazareth.
Bhejile bhamala bhuli chinu jinu jaliga jiile okukolwa okulubhana na ebhilagilo bhya Latabhugenyi, nibhasubha Galilaya, mumusi gwabho, Najaleti.
40 And the child grew, and waxed strong in spirit, filled with wisdom: and the grace of God was upon him.
Omwana akulile, na nabha namanaga, nabha no bhwengeso, ne chigongo cha Nyamuanga chaliga chili ingulu yae.
41 Now his parents went to Jerusalem every year at the feast of the passover.
Abhebhusi bhae bhuli mwaka bhagendaga Yelusalemu ingulu yo lusiku lukulu olwa ipasaka.
42 And when he was twelve years old, they went up to Jerusalem after the custom of the feast.
Ejile abha ne miyaka ekumi ne bhili, bhagendele lindi lwa kutyo jintugwa jebhwe jaliga jili ingulu yo lusiku lukulu.
43 And when they had fulfilled the days, as they returned, the child Jesus tarried behind in Jerusalem; and Joseph and his mother knew not of it.
Bhejile okusigala nsiku jona ingulu yo lusiku lukulu, nibhamba okusubha mumisi jebhwe. Tali omusigaji Yesu asigae inyuma Muyelusalemu na abhebhusi bhae bhatamenyaga ogwo.
44 But they, supposing him to have been in the company, went a day’s journey; and they sought him among their kinsfolk and acquaintance.
Bhetogelagati alimo mwiijo linu bhaliga nibhalibhata nalyo, kulwejo nibhalibhata lugendo lwa lusiku lumwi. Niwo nibhamba okumuyenja mubhaili na mubhasani bhebhwe.
45 And when they found him not, they turned back again to Jerusalem, seeking him.
Bhejile bhasingwa okumubhona, bhasubhile Yelusalemu nibhamba okumuyenja omwo.
46 And it came to pass, that after three days they found him in the temple, sitting in the midst of the doctors, both hearing them, and asking them questions.
Nibhonekana ati bhejile bhamala nsiku esatu, nibhamubhona mwi yekalu, enyanjile agati ya bheigisha, nabhategelesha no kubhabhusha amabhusho.
47 And all that heard him were astonished at his understanding and answers.
Bhona bhanu bhamunguhye bhalugulile obhwengeso bhwae na masubhyo gae.
48 And when they saw him, they were amazed: and his mother said unto him, Son, why hast thou thus dealt with us? behold, thy father and I have sought thee sorrowing.
Bhejile bhamubhona, nibhalugula. Nyila mwene namubhwilati,”Mwana wani, kulwaki wachikola kutya? Tegelesha, esomwana nanye chaliga nichikuyenja kwo kwitimata muno.”
49 And he said unto them, How is it that ye sought me? wist ye not that I must be about my Father’s business?
Nabhabhwila ati,”Kulwaki aliga nimunyenja? Mtamenyagati jinyiile okubhamo mu nyumba ya Lata wani?
50 And they understood not the saying which he spake unto them.
Tali bhatamenyele chinu aliga naikilila ku magambo ago.
51 And he went down with them, and came to Nazareth, and was subject unto them: but his mother kept all these sayings in her heart.
Niwo nagenda amwi nabho okukinga ika Najaleti na aliga ali mwikeyi kubhene. Nyila mwene abhikile amagambo ago mumwoyo gwae.
52 And Jesus increased in wisdom and stature, and in favour with God and man.
Tali Yesu agendelee okukula mu bhwengeso no bhukulu, nagendelela okwendwa na Nyamuanga na bhanu.
