Luke 2
1 Now in those days, a decree went out from Caesar Augustus that all the world should be enrolled.
Lyahanu mwa ana mazuva, ni kweza za Ceaser Augusto na tuma sikwata ku laera kuti kuve ni cipalo ca ku vala vantu vonse mwi nkanda.
2 This was the first enrollment made when Quirinius was governor of Syria.
Ichi chivali chipalo cha hentanzi chiva pangahali kwa Quirinius havali muyendisi we nkanda ya Siriya.
3 All went to enroll themselves, everyone to his own city.
Lyahanu zimwi ni zumwi naya ku toropo yakwe ku ku ka ñolisa ku chipalo.
4 Joseph also went up from Galilee, out of the city of Nazareth, into Judea, to David’s city, which is called Bethlehem, because he was of the house and family of David,
Josefa naye na yenda kuzwa kwa Galileya, kuzwa ku toropo ya Nazareta. kuya kwa Judeya, kwi totopo ya Davita i va ku sumpwa Betelehema, mukunti avali ku zwilila ku luzuvo lwa Davita.
5 to enroll himself with Mary, who was pledged to be married to him as wife, being pregnant.
Na enda ko kuka liñolisa hamwina ni Mariya iye yaava veeleze avali hindite.
6 While they were there, the day had come for her to give birth.
Linu ni yeza inako, havava ku sina koko, niya ba inako ya yakwe ya kuletwa kwa mucice.
7 She gave birth to her firstborn son. She wrapped him in bands of cloth and laid him in a feeding trough, because there was no room for them in the inn.
Na leta mwana shwisu, we ntazi, cha mu vungila mu majira male, linu na mulazika muchililo che ñombe, mukuti kahena ku vena chivaka cha masikilo.
8 There were shepherds in the same country staying in the field, and keeping watch by night over their flock.
Kuvena valisi vamitapi vavena mweco chilalo mu mumawa, vava ku lalila mitapi yavo masiku.
9 Behold, an angel of the Lord stood by them, and the glory of the Lord shone around them, and they were terrified.
Iñeloi lya Simwine ni lyalivonahaza ku vali, ni kwava ni nkanya ya Simwine iva niya pazima kuva zimbuluka, imi vava tite tota.
10 The angel said to them, “Don’t be afraid, for behold, I bring you good news of great joy which will be to all the people.
Linu iñeloi nilya va cho kuti, musiye ku tiya, mukuti twa mi letela liinzwi i ilotu, lyete lilete ku sanga ku kando ku vantu vonse.
11 For there is born to you today, in David’s city, a Savior, who is Christ the Lord.
Sunu muhazi ava letwa kwenu mwi toropo ya Davida! Nji Keresite Simwine.
12 This is the sign to you: you will find a baby wrapped in strips of cloth, lying in a feeding trough.”
Ichi nji chisupo chete nichi hewe kwenu, mu mu wane muchiche yo zingeletwe muma jira u lazikite muchililo ce ñombe.
13 Suddenly, there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly army praising God and saying,
Hahaho ni iñeloi ni lina ko kuvena vuungi bwe mpi izwa kwiwulu ivali ku lumbeka Ireza, ni icho,
14 “Glory to God in the highest, on earth peace, good will toward men.”
“Inkanya kwa Ireza mulena wa mawulu, mi kuve ni nkozo hansi mukati ka vantu va tavela.”
15 When the angels went away from them into the sky, the shepherds said to one another, “Let’s go to Bethlehem, now, and see this thing that has happened, which the Lord has made known to us.”
Nikweza hakuti mañeloi ha a yenda kuzwa ku vali kuya kwi wulu, valisi ni vali ambila, tu yende kwa Betelehema, kuka vona ichi chintu chiva chitahali, icho chava twi zivisi Simwine.
16 They came with haste and found both Mary and Joseph, and the baby was lying in the feeding trough.
Niva hwelela kwateni ni vaka wana Mariya ni Josefa, ni ku vona lukeke lu lele muchililo.
17 When they saw it, they publicized widely the saying which was spoken to them about this child.
Haba mana kumu vona, ni ve zibahaza chi vava wambilwe ku likana nozu muhwile.
18 All who heard it wondered at the things which were spoken to them by the shepherds.
Vonse vava izuwi ni ba makala ku chiva wambitwe kuzwa ku balisi.
19 But Mary kept all these sayings, pondering them in her heart.
Kono Maliya na zwila havusu ku zeza zintu zonse za va zuwi, ku zi vika mu nkulo yakwe.
20 The shepherds returned, glorifying and praising God for all the things that they had heard and seen, just as it was told them.
Balisi niva vola, ni va chenchelela ni ku lumba Ireza cha zintu zonse zi vava zuwi ni ku vona, uvu mu ku va wambilwa ku vali.
21 When eight days were fulfilled for the circumcision of the child, his name was called Jesus, which was given by the angel before he was conceived in the womb.
Hakuva kuma mani-mani e zuva li hinda iyanza ni otatwe, ha citwa mupato, na vikwa izina lwa Jesu, izina lyava hewa ku mañeloi naseni ku vumbwa mwi vumo.
22 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
Impalo ya mazuva ava sakahere ku kulijoloza kwavo ha i hita, kakuya cha mulao wa Mushe, Josefa ni Maliya ni va muleta kwi tempere mwa Jerusalema ku muleta havusu vwakwe kwa Simwine.
23 (as it is written in the law of the Lord, “Every male who opens the womb shall be called holy to the Lord”),
Muku ñolelwe mu mulawo wa Simwine, “umwi ne umwi mwana shisu wi yalula lupepo mwa vikwe kumbali kwa Simwine”.
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.”
Linu chivaha chitavelo chavo kakuya mukuva telwa mu mulao wa Simwine, “inkuva zovele kamba imkwilimba inini zo vele”
25 Behold, 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.
Muvone, kuvena mukwame mwa Jerusalema izina lakwe avali nji Simioni imi uzu mukwame ava shiyeme ni ku li neela. Ava lolelele muhazi wa Isiraere, imi luhuho lu jolola luvena hali.
26 It had been revealed to him by the Holy Spirit that he should not see death before he had seen the Lord’s Christ.
Iva ungulwilwe kwali cha luhuho lujolola kuti kete na vone lufu naseni ku vona Keresite wa Simwine.
27 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 custom of the law,
Che nkelelo ya luhuho, Simiyoni neza mwi tempele. Bazazi hava leta lukeke Jesu, ku mu chita cha kuya ka sico cha mulao,
28 then he received him into his arms and blessed God, and said,
na mu hinda mu mavoko akwe ni ku lumbeka Ireza mi na cho,
29 “Now you are releasing your servant, Master, according to your word, in peace;
Hanu u siye muhikana ko a yende mu nkozo, Simwine, chakuya cha liinzwi lyako.
30 for my eyes have seen your salvation,
Mukuti menso angu ava voni impuluso yako,
31 which you have prepared before the face of all peoples;
yo va bakanyi mwi muvusu vwa vantu vonse:
32 a light for revelation to the nations, and the glory of your people Israel.”
Mumuni we nsinulo kuva sa zumini ni nkanya ku vantu vako Isiraere.”
33 Joseph and his mother were marveling at the things which were spoken concerning him.
Vesi wa muhwile ni vanyina vava makele ka zintu ziva li ku wambiwa ku amana naye.
34 Simeon blessed them, and said to Mary, his mother, “Behold, this child is appointed for the falling and the rising of many in Israel, and for a sign which is spoken against.
Simiyoni cha va fuyola na cho kwa Mariya inyina wakwe, “Vone, uzu muhwile ketelwe kuwa ni ku vuka kwa vantu vangi mwa Isiraere imi cha chisupo chi kanitwe-
35 Yes, a sword will pierce through your own soul, that the thoughts of many hearts may be revealed.”
mi ilumo mu li hweze mu luhuho lwako-mukuti muzezelo we nkulo zingi ku letwe he nkanza.
36 There was one Anna, 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,
Muporofita wa mwanakazi ava ku sumpwa Anna kwavena. Avali mwana wa Fanuwelu yozwa ku mushovo wa Asha. Ava supele luli.
37 and she had been a widow for about eighty-four years), who didn’t depart from the temple, worshiping with fastings and petitions night and day.
Ava hali ni mwihyabwe ka zilimo zi hinda iyanza ni zovele. imi avali mufwilwa cha zilimo zina makumi a hinda iyaza ni makumi o tatwe ni zone. Kana ava ku siya itempere kono avali ku tendela cha kulinyima zilyo ni ntapelo, masiku ni kamwi.
38 Coming up at that very hour, she gave thanks to the Lord, and spoke of him to all those who were looking for redemption in Jerusalem.
Cho wo muzuzu, cheza kuvali ni kutanga kuha vuitumero kwa Ireza mi na wamba ka za muhwile ku zumwi ni zumwi yava lindile ku hazwa kwa Jerusalema.
39 When they had accomplished all things that were according to the law of the Lord, they returned into Galilee, to their own city, Nazareth.
Linu hava mana zonse zivavali lukela ku chita ka kuya ka mulao wa Simwine, niva vola kwa Galileya, kwi toropo yavo ya Nazareta.
40 The child was growing, and was becoming strong in spirit, being filled with wisdom, and the grace of God was upon him.
Muhwile na kula ni kuva yo kolete, na ekeza ku vutali, ni chishemo cha Ireza chivena hakwe.
41 His parents went every year to Jerusalem at the feast of the Passover.
Vazazi vakwe vava kuyendanga chilimo ni chilimo kwa Jerusalema ku mukiti we mpaseka.
42 When he was twelve years old, they went up to Jerusalem according to the custom of the feast;
Ha va ni zilimo zine ikumi ni zovele, hape niva yenda kuya ke nako ya chizo ku mukiti.
43 and when they had fulfilled the days, as they were returning, the boy Jesus stayed behind in Jerusalem. Joseph and his mother didn’t know it,
Have kala mazuva avalwa ezwile a mukiti, niva tanga ku voola ku muzi. Imi mushisu nashala mumasule mwa Jerusalema mi vazazi vakwe kena vave zivi.
44 but supposing him to be in the company, they went a day’s journey; and they looked for him among their relatives and acquaintances.
Chiva zeza kuti wina mukati ka chikwata ca vamwi vava vali kuyenda navo, imi niva yenda lwendo lwe zuva lyonke. Linu ni va tanga ku mu lola mukati ka vakwavo ni bamwakwe.
45 When they didn’t find him, they returned to Jerusalem, looking for him.
Hava mu vula, niva vola kwa Jerusalema ni ku tanga kumu lola kwateni.
46 After three days they found him in the temple, sitting in the middle of the teachers, both listening to them and asking them questions.
Nikwahi ta mazuva otatwe, chi va muwana mwi tempere, ne kele mukati ka muruti, nava tekete ni kuva vuza impuzo.
47 All who heard him were amazed at his understanding and his answers.
Vonse vava zuwi ku amana naye ni va makala ha ku zuwisisa kwakwe ni nkalabo za kwe.
48 When they saw him, they were astonished; and his mother said to him, “Son, why have you treated us this way? Behold, your father and I were anxiously looking for you.”
Havu muvona, ni va makala. Vanyina ni vawamba kwali, “Mwanangu, cinzi hawatu cita vuti? Teke, veso neme tuva ku ku saka saka.”
49 He said to them, “Why were you looking for me? Didn’t you know that I must be in my Father’s house?”
Nati kuvali, “Cinzi hamu kwete kuni saka? kana muvezivi kuti ni lukela kuva munzuvo ivandanda?”
50 They didn’t understand the saying which he spoke to them.
Kono kena vava zuwisisi cha va talusi chawo manzwi.
51 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.
Imi chayenda kuvola kumunzi navo kwa Nazareta ni kuli voza hansi ku vali. Banyina ni va ungula izi zintu zonse munkulo yavo.
52 And Jesus increased in wisdom and stature, and in favor with God and men.
Linu Jesu na zwila havusu ku kula cha vutali ni ku wera ku chiyemo, ni wera ku chishemo ni Ireza ni vantu.
