(This registering was the first made while Quirinius was governor of Syria.)
3 Anime kondevi ma dusa ani pin nuwe me bati aka bassa we.
And all went to be registered, each to his own city.
4 Isubu ma hiri u Nazarat ani pin nu Baita Lami uhana Yahudiya, aba sa agusan nipin ni Dauda. Barki me bisana bi Dauda bini.
And Joseph also went up from Galilee out of the city of Nazareth into Judaea, to the city of David, which is called Bethlehem, because he was of the house and lineage of David,
5 Ma ha nan Maryamu de sa mazin inti nyari tume inna puru bati aka bassa we.
to be registered with Mary who had been betrothed to him, who was with child.
6 Uganiya sa wa rani abirko me uganiya me uni madi yoo vana.
And it came to pass, while they were there, that the days for her delivery were completed.
7 Ma yoo Uvana, utuba uyoo uvana, ma impi me in mapori ma natti me uhugu, barki sa wa zowe unu denge ba abini me.
And she brought forth her firstborn son, and wrapped him in swathing-clothes, and laid him in a manger, because there was no room for them in the inn.
8 Uwata me aye wa rani ama saa unu bee itam iwee in niye.
And there were in the same country shepherds abiding in the field, and keeping watch over their flock by night.
9 Bibe bika dura ka Asere bi ē ahira awe, Ma saa ma Asere maketi we, wa kunna biyan bidandang.
And an angel of the Lord came to them, and the glory of the Lord shone around them; and they were in great fear.
10 Abinime bibe bika dura ka Asere be gun we “Kati ikunna biyan ba, ma aye shi inna banga aririn age sa Vat anu wadi kunna urunta udandang.
And the angel said to them, Fear not; for lo! I bring you good tidings of great joy, which shall be to the whole people;
11 Ayoo unu bura kānime ani pin ni Dauda, memani Asere Ugomo Asere.
for to you hath been born this day, in the city of David, a Saviour, who is the Christ, the Lord.
12 Ma saa me mazigenme sa adi nya shi, idi iri vana a impo me imma pori anata me hungu”.
And this shall be the sign to you: Ye shall find a babe wrapped in swathing-clothes, [[lying]] in a manger.
13 Sārki ucara uganiyan wa iri nigura nanuu nan Bibe bikadura ka Asere unu nonzo Asere innugusa.
And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising God, and saying,
14 “Ninonzo na Asere unaza, nan ticukum tihuma acee anu nee nan de sa ma kunna urunta ume”.
“Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace among men of good will!”
15 Abiki uganiya me sa Bibe bika dura ka Asere ba dusa anyimo a seseri, ani tam me wa gun nacece “Ca tihaa ubaitalami, tika iri imum igeme sa takunna sa Asere abukan duru”.
And it came to pass, when the angels had gone away from them into heaven, that the shepherds said one to another, Let us go at once to Bethlehem, and see that which hath come to pass, which the Lord hath made known to us.
16 Wa haa dibe-dibe waka kem Maryamu nan Isubu wan vana me anata uhungu.
And they came with haste, and found Mary and Joseph, and the babe lying in the manger.
17 Sa wa ira me, wa buki anu imum me sa abuka we anicee ne vana me.
And when they had seen it, they made known abroad what had been told them concerning this child.
18 Vat ande sa wa kunna icukuno Imum ugamara imum me sa anu hira itam me wa buka.
And all who heard wondered at the things which were told them by the shepherds.
19 Maryamu ma meki ubassa utimum me sa ma kunna, unu gamara me Iruba.
But Mary kept all these things, and pondered them in her heart.
20 Anu hira itam me wa kuri. Ininonzo nan ununonzo Asere, barki imum me sa wa kunna, wa ira, ka si ubuka me sa wa kunna.
And the shepherds returned, glorifying and praising God for all which they had heard and seen, as had been told them.

And when the days of their purification according to the law of Moses were completed, they brought him to Jerusalem to present him to the Lord,
23 Kasi unyertike U' inko utize ta Asere “Vat utuba uyoo uruma adi witi Asere me”.
as it is written in the law of the Lord: “Every first-born male shall be called holy to the Lord,”
24 Wa nya me unyanki kasi u' inko utize ta Asere “Mu hurbe muni muree nan matatabara marce”.
and to offer a sacrifice, according to what is directed in the law of the Lord: “A pair of turtle doves, or two young pigeons.”

And lo! there was a man in Jerusalem, whose name was Simeon; and he was a righteous and devout man, waiting for the consolation of Israel. And the Holy Spirit was upon him;
26 Bibe bilau ba Asere ba bezi me unu guna mada wono ba senke ma ira Asere Yeso.
and it had been revealed to him by the Holy Spirit, that he should not see death before he had seen the Christ of the Lord.
27 Uru wui Bibe bilau ba Asere bihan Siman udenge Asere. An ka coo me wa ēn Yeso vana uneze, kasi utanda nan u'inko utize ta Asere.
And he came in the Spirit into the temple; and when the parents brought in the child Jesus, to do for him according to the custom of the law,
28 Ma gbindirko me abigiri ma nonziko Asere ma gu.
he took him in his arms, and blessed God, and said,
29 “Aname ca urere uweme madusa inna puru arum Asere, kasi ubuka uweme.
Lord! now lettest thou thy servant depart in peace, according to thy word;
30 Barki sa aje am a'era nibussi nuweme,

31 Sa wa wuza amu hennu manun vat.
which thou hast prepared before the face of all the peoples;
32 Ma saa mani mati roo uhana anuu uzati utarsa Asere nan ninonzo uhana anuu aweme Isarailawa”.

33 Acoo avana me nan ka inoo we wa kunna urunta imum me sa mubuka.
And his father and his mother marveled at what was spoken concerning him.
34 Siman ma nonziko we ma gun Maryamu a inoo me “Kunna memmerum Vana ugeme madi cukuno unaa urizo nan uhira wa nun gbardang anyimo Isaraila nan ubezi sa adi nyarime.
And Simeon blessed them, and said to Mary his mother, Behold, this child is appointed for the fall and rising of many in Israel, and for a sign that will be spoken against; —
35 Uvira udi watti iruba iweme bati arusi muruba manu”.
yea, a sword will pierce through thine own soul, —that the thoughts of many hearts may be revealed.

And there was Anna, a prophetess, daughter of Phanuel: of the tribe of Asher; she was of great age, and had lived with a husband seven years from her virginity;

and she was a widow eighty-four years old, who never left the temple, worshipping with fastings and prayers night and day.
38 Uganiya me ma nyene uhana ahira awe unu nonzo Asere, ma buki vat ande sa waazin nubee uburu Urshalima abanga a vana me.
And she came up at this very time, and gave thanks to God, and spoke of him to all that were looking for the redemption of Jerusalem.
39 Sa wa mara kondi nyani wa wuzi kasi u inko utize ta Asere, wa kuri Ugalili ani pin nuweme Unazarat.
And when they had performed all things according to the law of the Lord, they returned to Galilee, to their own city Nazareth.

Now his parents used to go yearly to Jerusalem at the feast of the passover.
42 Sa mawuna tiwe ukirau-tire, Wa kuri kurri uganiya u'idi utanda.
And when he was twelve years old, and they went up, after the custom of the feast,
43 Sa tiyee tu idi ta mara, wa tubi kurso ati kura. Yeso ma dii adumo Ujerusalem Sārki urusan anka coo me.
and had completed the days, on their returning, the child Jesus tarried behind in Jerusalem; and his parents did not know it,
44 Wa bassa nan mazi nanni goo nanume sa wa haka nan we, wa hiri tanu. Wa tubi u nyara ume anyimo anu turra uweme nan aronni.
but, supposing him to be in the company, went a day's journey; and they sought him among their kinsfolk and acquaintance;
45 Sa daki wa ira me ba, wa kuri Ujerusalem waka tunguno unyara ume abini me.
and not finding him, they returned to Jerusalem in search of him.
46 Wawu tiyee titaru unu nyara ume wa tinka me udenge Asere, ma ciki atii anu bezizi, unu kunna nan nu'igizo uwe.
And it came to pass, that 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 Vat andee sa wa kunna me wa meki ugamara urusa nan ukabara umeme.
And all who heard him were astonished at his understanding and his answers.
48 Sa wa ira me wa meki ugamara me kang. A'inome ma gun me “Vana, nyanini wa wuzan duru aname? Kunna, acoo uweme nan mi tizin nunyara uwe unu curnome Iruba”.
And when they saw him, they were amazed; and his mother said to him, Son, why hast thou thus dealt with us? behold, thy father and I have been seeking thee in much distress.
49 Ma gun we, “Barki nyani izin nunyan um? Ita shi izi gbass incukuno akura acou um ba?”
And he said to them, Why is it that ye have been seeking me? Did ye not know that I must be about my Father's business?
50 Daki wa rusa imum sa ma boo ba.
And they understood not what he spoke to them.
51 Ma dusa akura nan we Unazarat ma tarsi tize tuweme. A'ino me ma inki Vat timum tigeme Iruba.
And he went down with them, and came to Nazareth, and was subject to them. And his mother kept all these things in her heart.
52 Yeso ma re'aje unu uzza nan nurusa, ma kuri ma kinki ukem ukaba ahira Asere nan nanuu.
And Jesus increased in wisdom and stature, and in favor with God and men.
