Luk 2
1 Erah tokdi Luungwanglong Agastas ih Roman noksong loongtang rookweh thuk ano neng men ah le ni raangthiin thuk rumta.
Now it happened in those days that a decree went out from Caesar Augustus that the whole inhabited world should be enrolled.
2 Erah phang raang et thukta tok adi, Siria hate Kobono ah Kurinus angta.
This first census took place while Quirinius was governing Syria.
3 Eno, warep ih neng teewah men ah, maama hah ni raangwan rumta.
So everyone was traveling, each to his own town, to enroll himself.
4 Josep ah Galili hah Najeret nawa, Dewid luungwang tup hadaang Judia hah Betlehem ni kata. Tumeah Josep ah Dewid sutoom angta.
So Joseph also went up from Galilee, out of Natsareth town, into Judea to the city of David, that is called Bethlehem, because he was of David's ‘house’, that is, line of descent,
5 Josep ih Meeri heh suh nook raang ih kakhatta damdi, heh men ah wak raang wanta. Heh ah sakjih angta,
to enroll himself with Mary, the woman who had been betrothed to him, who was pregnant.
6 eno neng Betlehem ni ang tokdi, nootup rangwuung ah thok taha.
So it happened that when they got there the days for her to give birth were completed;
7 Heh sah phangkhoh rah miwasah eh tupta, eno nyuh rah ih khoon ano maan tokkhuung ni jupthiinta naangjam nok laje thoi eah.
and she gave birth to her firstborn Son, wrapped Him in pieces of cloth and laid Him in the manger, because there was no room for them in the lodging place.
8 Erah deek adi mararah saapriimte loong rangphe pheetang ih phek ni, neng saapsah loong ban sok rumta.
Now there were shepherds in that same area, staying out in the field and keeping the nightly watches over their flock.
9 Rangsah rah neng reeni dongchapta, eno Teesu chaan ah neng khothung ni phaakta. Eno neng ah rapne ih cho rumta,
When wow, an angel of the Lord stood before them, and the glory of the Lord shone around them, and they were terrified.
10 enoothong Rangsah rah ih liirumta, “Nakcho an! Ngah aradi sen suh Ruurang Ese huijah halang, erah ih mina loongtang suh rapne tenroon thuk ah.
The angel said to them: “Do not be afraid because listen, I am announcing the most joyful news to you, which will be to all the people!
11 Chiinyah Dewid hadaang ni sen pangte tupta—Teesu Kristo ah!
You see, today, in David's city, a Savior was born to you, who is Lord Christ!
12 Eno sen suh erah jatthuk han: sen ih noodek esiit nyuh ih khoon ano maan tokkhuung nah jupthiin arah tup an.”
And this is the sign to you: you will find a Baby wrapped in pieces of cloth, lying in a manger.”
13 Baphuk ih heh damdi rangsah loong hantek ih rang nawa dong taha, eno boongkaat lam ih Rangte rangphoong rumta:
Suddenly a multitude of the heavenly army was with the angel praising God and saying,
14 “Rangte chaan ah echoong thoon rangmong ni phaakjaaja, erah dam ih hah nah semroongroong ang thuk ah heh thunghaanla loong asuh ah!”
“Glory to God in the highest and on earth peace, good will toward mankind!”
15 Rangsah loong ah neng re nawa rang ni ngaakwangta adi, saapriimte loong ah neng chamchi ni waan rumta, “Betlehem nah kah ih no, erah ni tumjih angla Teesu ih baat tahe loong ah sokkah ih.”
So when the angels went away from them into the sky the men, the shepherds, said to one another, “Hey, let's go to Bethlehem and see this event that has taken place, that the Lord made known to us!”
16 Eno neng ah echaan ih Meeri nyia Josep reeni karum ano noodek ah maan tokkhuung ni jupthiin arah japtup karumta.
So they went in a hurry and located both Mary and Joseph, and the Baby lying in the manger.
17 Saapriimte loong ah ih heh ah sok rum ano, Rangsah ih noodek tiit tumjih baatta loong ah neng suh we toombaat rumta.
And having seen they spread an exact account of the saying that had been spoken to them concerning this Child.
18 Saapriimte loong ih baatta rah japchaatte loong ah paatja ih rumta.
All who heard marveled at the things told them by the shepherds.
19 Meeri ih erah loong tiit ah dokthun ano rapne ih samthunta.
As for Mary, she treasured all these sayings, pondering them in her heart.
20 Saapriimte loong ah ngaakwang rum ano, neng ih tup rumta nyia chaat rumta loong asuh boongkaat damdi neng Rangte ah phoongpha rumta; erah ah rangsah ih mamet baat rumta jun ih angta.
The shepherds returned, glorifying and praising God over all that they had heard and seen, just as it was told them.
21 Saasinet lini noodek ah heh khoopkhan banlam hoontok thok kohaano, heh ah Jisu et men rumta, marah rangsah ih heh nuh mong ni maangje tokdi dook ban menta men rah ah.
When eight days were completed so as to circumcise Him, His name was indeed called JESUS, the name given by the angel before He was conceived in the womb.
22 Moses Hootthe ih baatta jun ih Meeri nyia Josep, sak saasiit hoon banlam saapoot ah thok ih taha. Eno nyi noodek ah Jerusalem hadaang ni Teesu suh baat kokaat suh huikaat nyuuta,
And when the days of their purification according to the law of Moses were completed, they took Him to Jerusalem to present Him to the Lord
23 erah langla Teesu Hootthe ni raangthiin cho angta: “Warep ih ephangtup ela phokhothoon noodek ah Teesu suh kottheng.”
(just as it is written in the law of the Lord, “Every male who opens a womb shall be called holy to the Lord”),
24 Erah damdi nyi ih tokparusah enyi adoleh wotuupi enyi, Teesu Hootthe jun ih nyi siik hoon et koh nyuuta.
and to offer a sacrifice according to what was specified in the Lord's Law, “a pair of turtledoves or two young pigeons”.
25 Erah tokdi Jerusalem hadaang ni mih wasiit heh men ah Simoon songtongta. Heh ah wase nyia Rangte ra choote mina angta, eno Ijirel mina loong khopui suh heh ih Rangte ah ban sok ruh eta. Esa Chiiala ah heh damdi angta
Well now, there was a man in Jerusalem whose name was Simeon; this man was righteous and devout, expectantly waiting for the Consolation of Israel, and Holy Spirit was upon him.
26 erah dam ih heh suh Teesu ih thoomhoon cho Kristo ah maang tuptup an tatiiko ih kakhamta.
(It had been revealed to him repeatedly by the Holy Spirit that he would not see death until he saw the Lord's Messiah.)
27 Chiiala ah ih siit ano Simoon ah rangsoomnok ni wangta. Heh jaatang ih khobaang Jisu ah rangsoomnok ni Hootthe ih jamha jun ih piijah nyuuha di,
So by the Spirit he came into the temple; and when the parents brought the Child Jesus in, to do concerning Him according to the custom of the law,
28 Simoon ih noodek ah heh lakkhoni toonpi ano Rangte suh lakookmi liita:
Simeon took Him into his arms and blessed God and said:
29 “Teesu, an ih thoomhoon jengdang ah thiincho, eno an laksuh ah semroongroong et kaat thuk uh.
“Sovereign, now You can release your slave in peace, according to Your word,
30 Nga mikmik ih an jiin dowa khopiiroidong ah tup ih hang,
because my eyes have seen Your salvation,
31 marah an ih loongtang pandi hoon thiin tu rah ah:
which You have prepared before the face of all peoples:
32 Jehudi lah angte loong suh an tenthun ah jathuk suh weephaak ah phaak ah no an mina Ijirel loong tenroon ih phaakjaaja ang rum ah.”
a light for revelation to Gentiles, and the glory of Your people Israel.”
33 Simoon ih Jisu tiit baatta ah chaat nyu ano heh nuh nyi wah ah paatja ih nyuuta.
And Joseph and His mother were marveling at the things being spoken concerning Him.
34 Simoon ih nyi suh romseetam koh nyuuta no heh nuh Meeri, suh baatta, “Arah noodek ah Rangte ih danje cho Ijirel loong thet haat nyia khopiipang raangtaan ih ah. Heh ah Rangte mikthe ang ano warep mina ih heh thetbaatte totoh ang ah
Then Simeon blessed them, and said to Mary His mother: “Listen, this One is appointed to bring about the fall and rising of many in Israel, and to be a sign that is spoken against,
35 erah thoi ih neng husah tenthun loong ah dongjat ah. Eno an ten ah langtheh ih dook arah likhiik, sattiiti ih sat uh.”
so that the reasonings of many hearts may be revealed (furthermore, a sword will pass through your own soul also).”
36 Teewadi khonuh wikuh, thaknuh heh men ah Anna, Ashir nok hate Phanual sah angta. Heh sawah suh nookta dowa ih paang sinet ba angta eno heh miwah ah tiita. Heh paang rook asat paang baji angta. Heh ih Rangteenok ah babah uh tathiin haatta; rangwuung rangphe heh Rangte rangsoom, nyi samurangsoom ih tongta.
Also there was a prophetess Anna, a daughter of Phanuel, of the tribe of Asher—she was of a great age, having lived with a husband seven years from her virginity
and having been a widow for about eighty-four years—who did not depart from the temple, serving God with fastings and petitions night and day.
38 Erah pootdi Anna thok haano Rangte suh jengseeraata. Eno Jerusalem ah Rangte ih piipang et ah ih bansokte loong asuh noodek tiit ah baatta.
Well she, having come up at that very moment, started praising the Lord, and kept on speaking of Him to all those in Jerusalem who were looking for redemption.
39 Josep nyia Meeri ih Teesu Hootthe ih jamta loong ah jen khom hoon thiin nyu ano, nyi hah Galili ni Najaret hadaang adi ngaak wang nyuuta.
When they had completed everything, according to the law of the Lord, they went back to Galilee, to their own town, Natsareth.
40 Noodek ah rongkopkop ih hakta; mongtham ese ah heh jiinni hantek angta, eno Rangte ih heh suh romseetam kota.
And the Child kept growing and being strengthened in spirit, being filled with wisdom; yes, the grace of God was upon Him.
41 Paang rookwih Jisu jaatang ah Khopui Kuwaang di Jerusalem ni bankah ruh kah ih rumta.
Now every year His parents would go to Jerusalem to the feast of the Passover;
42 Jisu asih paang nyi ih hak adi, neng erah kuh adi paang hoh dowa likhiik ih karumta.
so when He was twelve years old they went up to Jerusalem according to the custom of the feast.
43 Kuh ah thoon kano neng ah ngaak wang ih rumta, enoothong noodek Jisu ah Jerusalem ni tangtongta. Erah ah heh jaatang ih tajat rumta;
When they had fulfilled the days, as they were returning, the boy Jesus stayed behind in Jerusalem, but Joseph and His mother did not know it.
44 neng ih thunta heh ah sengdung ni eje heh angla eah, rah thoi neng henih nitang mokkhoom rumta eno Rekamdi neng joonte sano dung ni phang jam sok rumta.
Supposing Him to be in the caravan, they went a day's journey and then started looking for Him among their relatives and acquaintances.
45 Neng ih Heh ah tajap jam rumta, erah thoih ih neng Jerusalem ni ngaakwang rum ano eni jam sokwang rumta.
Not finding Him, they returned to Jerusalem seeking Him.
46 Saajom di neng ih heh ah Rangteenok ni japtup rumta, Jehudi nok hate nyootte loong damdi, neng jeng boichaat nyia neng suh chengphi damdi tong arah ah.
So it happened 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 Warep ih heh tiit chaatte loong ah epaatja ih rumta heh ih jatwah jenglam ih ngaakbaat rum kano ah.
(All who heard Him were astonished at His understanding and answers.)
48 Heh nuh nyi wah ah doonmoot ih rumta heh ah tup rum ano ah, eno heh nuh ih liita, “Nga sah, an ih tumjih hoon wan halu? “Sek ah anwah ah rapne ih sootsaam thuk haliitih, an ah noongrep ni taat tum jam sok hiitih.”
So upon seeing Him they were amazed, and His mother said to Him: “Son, why have you treated us like this? Look, your father and I have been searching for you in distress.”
49 Jisu ih ngaakbaatta, “Ngah set ih tumet suh jam sok hali tih? Set ih tanih jattansih ngah seng wah nok ni eah?”
So He said to them: “Why were you seeking me? Didn't you know that I must be about my Father's concerns?”
50 Jisu ih ngaakbaat rumta ah neng ih tajen samjat rumta.
But they did not understand the statement that He made to them.
51 Eno Jisu ah neng damdi Najaret ni roong ngaakwangta, heh nuh nyi heh wah jeng chaatchaat ah. Erah di mamah angta erah loong ah heh nuh ih heh tenni lomthun ruh eta.
Then He went down with them and came to Natsareth, and continued subordinating Himself to them; His mother kept all these sayings in her heart.
52 Jisu ah hansi nyia ese mongtham ni choocho ih hakta, mina nyi Rangte uh heko ih roopta.
And Jesus kept increasing in wisdom and stature, and in favor with God and men.
