Luka 2
1 Woli ku nsiku ejo, yabhonekene ati Kaisali Agusito asosishe obhulaka naikati bhugegibhwe obhukumi bhwa bhanu bhona munsi.
And it came to pass in those days that there went out a decree from Caesar Augustus, that all the world should be registered.
2 Bhunu bhwaliga bhuli bhubhasi bhwo kwamba bhunu bhakolekene omwanya gunu Kilenio ali mukama wa Siliya.
(This registering was the first made while Quirinius was governor of Syria.)
3 Kulwejo bhuli munu nagenda mumusi gwabho okubhalwa obhukumi.
And all went to be registered, each to his own city.
4 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.
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 Agendeleyo okwiyandika amwi na Maliyamu, unu aliga ali no bhuko nage naliga nibhenda obhona omwana.
to be registered with Mary who had been betrothed to him, who was with child.
6 Oli jabhonekene ati, bhachali eyo omwanya gwo kwibhula nigukinga.
And it came to pass, while they were there, that the days for her delivery were completed.
7 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.
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 Mulubhala olwo, bhaliga bhalio abhalefi bhanu bhaliga bhekae mumashamba nibhalinda amaijo ga jinyabhalega jebhwe mungeta.
And there were in the same country shepherds abiding in the field, and keeping watch over their flock by night.
9 Aonao, Malaika wa Latabhugenyi nabhabhonekela, na likusho lya Latabhugenyi ndinyenyegela okubheinda, nibhabha no bhubha muno.
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 “Niwo malaika nabhabhwilati,”Mutaja kubhaya, kulwokubha enibhaletela emisango jo bhwana jinu ejija okuleta bhukondelewe bhunene ku bhanu bhona.
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 Lelo Omuchungusi ebhulwa ingulu yemwe mumusi gwa Daudi! omwene niwe Kilisto Latabhugenyi!
for to you hath been born this day, in the city of David, a Saviour, who is the Christ, the Lord.
12 Chinu nicho echibhalikisho chinu omuja oyanwa, omuja okumusanga omwana abhoelwe emyenda na amamile mu chigoli cho kulebhela jintyanyi.”
And this shall be the sign to you: Ye shall find a babe wrapped in swathing-clothes, [[lying]] in a manger.
13 Aonao nilibhao eijo enene elya mulwile nibha amwi na malaika oyo nibhamukusha Nyamuanga, nibhaikati,
And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising God, and saying,
14 “Likusho libhe ku Nyamuanga unu ali ingulu muno, no mulembe gubhe muchalo ku bhanu bhona bhanu kakondelelwa nabho.”
“Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace among men of good will!”
15 Bhejile bhamalaika bhamala okugenda mulwile, abhalefi nibhaikana abhene kwa bhene, Chigende woli eliya Betelehemu, chijolola chinu chabhonekana, chinu Latabhugenyi achimenyesha.”
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 Nibhanguya okuja eliya, na nibhamusanga Maliamu na Yusufu, na nibhamulola omwana amamile muchigoli echokulisishamo jintyanyi.
And they came with haste, and found Mary and Joseph, and the babe lying in the manger.
17 Bhejile bhalola kutyo, nibhabhwila abhanu chinu bhaliga bhabhwiliwe ingulu yo mwana.
And when they had seen it, they made known abroad what had been told them concerning this child.
18 Bhona bhonguhye emisango ejo nibhalugula chinu chaikilwe na bhalefi.
And all who heard wondered at the things which were told them by the shepherds.
19 Tali Maliyamu nagendelela okwiganilisha kujona jinu aligaonguhye, nagabhika mumwoyo gwae.
But Mary kept all these things, and pondered them in her heart.
20 Abhalefi nibhasubha nibhamukusha no kumukuya Nyamuanga ku lwa bhuli chinu chinu bhonguhye no kulola, lwakutyo jaiga jaikilwe kubhene.
And the shepherds returned, glorifying and praising God for all which they had heard and seen, as had been told them.
21 Lwejile okukinga olusiku lwa nane yaliga guli mwanya gwo kumutenda omwana, nibhamubhilikila Yesu, lisina linu ayanibhwe na malaika oyo achali na kujila nda,
And when eight days were completed for him to be circumcised, his name was called Jesus, the name given by the angel before he was conceived in the womb.
22 Jejile jikalabhao jinsiku jo kusomoka, okulubhana na bhilagilo bhya Musa, Yusufu na Maliyamu nibhamusila mwi yekalu eliya Yelusalemi okumta imbele ya Latabhugenyi.
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 Lwakutyo jandikilwe mu bhilagilo bhya Latabhugenyi,”Bhuli mulume unu kamba okwibhulwa katogwa unu asosibhwe ku Latabhugenyi.”
as it is written in the law of the Lord: “Every first-born male shall be called holy to the Lord,”
24 Abhenene ona bhejile okusosha echogo okulubhana na chinu chaikilwe mu bhilagilo bhya Latabhugenyi,”Njibha ebhili amwi bhana bhabhili bha jinguti.”
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.”
25 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.
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 Aliga amalile okuswelulibhwa no mwoyo mwelu ati atakufwa achali kumulola Kilisto wa Latabhugenyi.
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 Lusiku lumwi ejile munda ya iyekalu, natangasibhwa no Mwoyo Mwelu. Anu abhebhusi nibhamuleta omwana, Yesu, okumukolela ganu galiga geile okulubhana ne bhilagilo,
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 Niwo Simiyoni namulamila mumabhoko gae, na namukuya Nyamuanga naikati,
he took him in his arms, and blessed God, and said,
29 “Woli numwikilishe omukosi wao agende kwo mulembe Latabhugenyi, okulubhana na ligambo lyao.
Lord! now lettest thou thy servant depart in peace, according to thy word;
30 Kulwokubha ameso gani galola omwelulo gwao,
for mine eyes have seen thy salvation,
31 Gunu ogubhonekana mumeso gabhanu bhona.
which thou hast prepared before the face of all the peoples;
32 Omwene ni bhwelu bhwo obhuswelulo ku bhanu bha Maanga na likushyo kubhanu bha Isilaeli.”
a light to enlighten the gentiles, and to be the glory of thy people Israel.
33 Esemwene na Nyilamwene nibhalugushwa na magambo ganu galomwaga ingulu yae.
And his father and his mother marveled at what was spoken concerning him.
34 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.
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 Nawe ni panga linu elisoma mumwoyo gwao omwene, koleleki obhwiganilisha bhwe mioyo ja bhamfu jibhonekane.”
yea, a sword will pierce through thine own soul, —that the thoughts of many hearts may be revealed.
36 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,
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;
37 Nio nafwilwa omulume nekala miyaka makumi munana nena. Omwene atasoka mwiyekalu na aliga nagendelela okumulamya Nyamuanga amwi no kusibha no kusabha, mungeta na mumwisi.
and she was a widow eighty-four years old, who never left the temple, worshipping with fastings and prayers night and day.
38 Nakumwanya ogwo, ejile anu bhaliga bhali namba okumusima Nyamuanga. Alomele ingulu yo mwana kubhuli munu unu aliga nalinda omwelulo gwa Yelusalemi.
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 Bhejile bhamala bhuli chinu jinu jaliga jiile okukolwa okulubhana na ebhilagilo bhya Latabhugenyi, nibhasubha Galilaya, mumusi gwabho, Najaleti.
And when they had performed all things according to the law of the Lord, they returned to Galilee, to their own city Nazareth.
40 Omwana akulile, na nabha namanaga, nabha no bhwengeso, ne chigongo cha Nyamuanga chaliga chili ingulu yae.
And the child grew, and waxed strong, being filled with wisdom; and the grace of God was upon him.
41 Abhebhusi bhae bhuli mwaka bhagendaga Yelusalemu ingulu yo lusiku lukulu olwa ipasaka.
Now his parents used to go yearly to Jerusalem at the feast of the passover.
42 Ejile abha ne miyaka ekumi ne bhili, bhagendele lindi lwa kutyo jintugwa jebhwe jaliga jili ingulu yo lusiku lukulu.
And when he was twelve years old, and they went up, after the custom of the feast,
43 Bhejile okusigala nsiku jona ingulu yo lusiku lukulu, nibhamba okusubha mumisi jebhwe. Tali omusigaji Yesu asigae inyuma Muyelusalemu na abhebhusi bhae bhatamenyaga ogwo.
and had completed the days, on their returning, the child Jesus tarried behind in Jerusalem; and his parents did not know it,
44 Bhetogelagati alimo mwiijo linu bhaliga nibhalibhata nalyo, kulwejo nibhalibhata lugendo lwa lusiku lumwi. Niwo nibhamba okumuyenja mubhaili na mubhasani bhebhwe.
but, supposing him to be in the company, went a day's journey; and they sought him among their kinsfolk and acquaintance;
45 Bhejile bhasingwa okumubhona, bhasubhile Yelusalemu nibhamba okumuyenja omwo.
and not finding him, they returned to Jerusalem in search of him.
46 Nibhonekana ati bhejile bhamala nsiku esatu, nibhamubhona mwi yekalu, enyanjile agati ya bheigisha, nabhategelesha no kubhabhusha amabhusho.
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 Bhona bhanu bhamunguhye bhalugulile obhwengeso bhwae na masubhyo gae.
And all who heard him were astonished at his understanding and his answers.
48 Bhejile bhamubhona, nibhalugula. Nyila mwene namubhwilati,”Mwana wani, kulwaki wachikola kutya? Tegelesha, esomwana nanye chaliga nichikuyenja kwo kwitimata muno.”
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 Nabhabhwila ati,”Kulwaki aliga nimunyenja? Mtamenyagati jinyiile okubhamo mu nyumba ya Lata wani?
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 Tali bhatamenyele chinu aliga naikilila ku magambo ago.
And they understood not what he spoke to them.
51 Niwo nagenda amwi nabho okukinga ika Najaleti na aliga ali mwikeyi kubhene. Nyila mwene abhikile amagambo ago mumwoyo gwae.
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 Tali Yesu agendelee okukula mu bhwengeso no bhukulu, nagendelela okwendwa na Nyamuanga na bhanu.
And Jesus increased in wisdom and stature, and in favor with God and men.
