Lukas 1
1 CEREN anhitzec escu eçarri baitu narratione baten scribatzera complituqui gure artean certificatu içan diraden gaucéz,
As a number of attempts have been made to put together in order an account of those events which took place among us,
2 Eçagutzera eman draucuten beçala lehen hatsetic ikussi dituztenéc eta hitzaren ministre içan diradenéc.
As they were handed down to us by those who saw them from the first and were preachers of the word,
3 Niri-ere on iruditu içan ciaitadac gucia hatsetic finerano diligentqui comprehendituric, hiri punctuz punctu heçaz scribatzera, o Theophile gucizco excellenteá:
It seemed good to me, having made observation, with great care, of the direction of events in their order, to put the facts in writing for you, most noble Theophilus;
4 Hobequi eçagut deçánçat ikassi dituán gaucén eguiá.
So that you might have certain knowledge of those things about which you were given teaching.
5 HERODES Iudeaco regueren egunetan cen Zacharias deitzen cen Sacrificadorebat, Abiaren araldetic: eta haren emaztea cen Aaronen alabetaric, eta haren icena Elisabeth.
In the days of Herod, king of Judaea, there was a certain priest, by name Zacharias, of the order of Abijah; and he had a wife of the family of Aaron, and her name was Elisabeth.
6 Biac ciraden iusto Iaincoaren aitzinean, Iaunaren, manamendu eta ordenança gucietan reprochuric gabe çabiltzanac.
They were upright in the eyes of God, keeping all the rules and orders of God, and doing no wrong.
7 Eta haourric etzutén, ceren Elisabeth steril baitzen, eta biac baitziraden adinez aitzinaratuac.
And they were without children, because Elisabeth had never given birth, and they were at that time very old.
8 Guertha cedin bada, harc Iaincoaren aitzinean bere aldian sacrificadoregoa exercitzen çuenean,
Now it came about that in his turn he was acting as priest before God,
9 Sacrificadoregoaren officioco costumaren araura, çorthea eror baitzequión Iaunaren templean sarthuric encensamenduaren eguiteco.
And as was the way of the priests, he had to go into the Temple to see to the burning of perfumes.
10 Eta populu guciac campoan othoitz eguiten çuen encensamendua eguiten cen orduan.
And all the people were offering prayers outside, at the time of the burning of perfumes.
11 Eta aguer cequión Iaunaren Aingueruä, cegoela encensamenduco aldarearen escuinean.
And he saw an angel of the Lord in his place on the right side of the altar.
12 Eta Zacharias trubla cedin hura ikussiric, eta icidurabat eror cedin haren gainera.
And Zacharias was troubled when he saw him, and fear came on him.
13 Orduan erran ciecón Aingueruäc, Eztuala beldurric Zacharias: ecen ençun içan duc hire othoitzá, eta Elisabeth eure emaztea erdiren çaic seme batez: eta hari icen emanen draucac Ioannes
But the angel said, Have no fear, Zacharias, for your prayer has come to the ears of God, and your wife Elisabeth will have a son, and his name will be John.
14 Eta bozcario eta alegrança vkanen duc, eta anhitz haren sortzearen gainean alegueraturen dituc,
And you will be glad and have great delight; and numbers of people will have joy at his birth.
15 Ecen handi içanen duc Iaunaren aitzinean, eta mahatsarnoric ez berce arnoric eztic edanen: eta Spiritu sainduaz betheren datec bere amaren sabeleandanic.
For he will be great in the eyes of the Lord; he will not take wine or strong drink; and he will be full of the Spirit of God from his birth.
16 Eta anhitz Israeleco haourretaric conuertituren dic berén Iainco Iaunagana.
And through him great numbers of the children of Israel will be turned to the Lord their God.
17 Eta hura ioanen duc haren aitzinean Eliasen spiriturequin eta verthuterequin, conuerti ditzançat aitén bihotzac semetara eta desobedientac iustoén çuhurtassunera: Iaunari populu vngui instruitubat appain dieçonçat.
And he will go before his face in the spirit and power of Elijah, turning the hearts of fathers to their children, and wrongdoers to the way of righteousness; to make ready a people whose hearts have been turned to the Lord.
18 Orduan erran cieçon Zachariasec Aingueruäri, Nolatán hori eçaguturen dut? ecen ni nauc çahar, eta ene emaztea duc bere egunetan aitzinaratua.
And Zacharias said to the angel, How may I be certain of this? For I am an old man, and my wife is far on in years.
19 Eta ihardesten çuela Aingueruäc erran cieçon, Ni nauc Gabriel Iaincoaren aitzinean assistitzen naicena, eta igorri içan nauc hirequin minçatzera, eta berri on hauen hiri declaratzera.
And the angel, answering, said, I am Gabriel, whose place is before God; I have been sent to say these words to you and to give you this good news.
20 Eta horrá, mutu içanen aiz eta ecin minçaturen aiz, gauça hauc eguin ditecen egunerano: ceren ezpaitituc sinhetsi ene hitz bere demborán complituren diradenac.
Now, see, you will be without voice or language till the day when these things come about, because you had not faith in my words, which will have effect at the right time.
21 Eta populua cegoen Zachariasen beguira, eta miresten çuen nola harc hambat berancen çuen templean.
And the people were waiting for Zacharias and were surprised because he was in the Temple for such a long time.
22 Eta ilki cenean ecin minça cequidien, eta eçagut ceçaten ecen cembeit visione ikussi çuela templean: ecen keinuz aditzera emaiten cerauen, eta mutu guelditu ican cen.
And when he came out he was not able to say anything, and they saw that he had seen a vision in the Temple; and he was making signs to them without words.
23 Eta guertha cedin, haren officioco egunac acabatu ciradenean, bere etcherát itzul baitzedin.
And when the days of his work in the Temple were ended, he went back to his house.
24 Eta egun hayén ondoan haren emazte Elisabethec concebi ceçan: eta estal cedin borz hilebethez, cioela,
After that time, Elisabeth, being certain that she was to become a mother, kept herself from men's eyes for five months, saying,
25 Segur, hunela eguin vkan draut Iaunac, visitatu nauen egunetan, ene laidoa guiçonén artetic ken leçançat.
The Lord has done this to me, for his eyes were on me, to take away my shame in the eyes of men.
26 Eta seigarren hilebethean igor cedin Gabriel Aingueruä Iaincoaz Galileaco hiri Nazareth deitzen denera:
Now in the sixth month the angel Gabriel was sent from God to a town in Galilee, named Nazareth,
27 Dauid-en etchetico Ioseph deitzen cen guiçon-batequin fedatua cen virgina batgana: eta virginaren icena cen Maria.
To a virgin who was to be married to a man named Joseph, of the family of David; and the name of the virgin was Mary.
28 Eta Aingueruäc hura baithara sarthuric, erran ceçan, Salutatzen aut gratia eguin çainaná: Iauna dun hirequin, benedicatua hi emaztén artean.
And the angel came in to her and said, Peace be with you, to whom special grace has been given; the Lord is with you.
29 Eta hura, Ainguerua ikussiric trubla cedin haren erranaren gainean, eta pensatzen çuen ceric licén salutatione hura.
But she was greatly troubled at his words, and said to herself, What may be the purpose of these words?
30 Orduan diotsa Aingueruäc, Mariá, eztunala beldurric, ecen eriden dun gratia Iaincoa baithan.
And the angel said to her, Have no fear, Mary, for you have God's approval.
31 Eta horrá, concebituren dun eure sabelean, eta erdiren aiz seme batez eta deithuren dun haren icena Iesus.
And see, you will give birth to a son, and his name will be Jesus.
32 Hura içanen dun handi, eta eritziren ciayón Subiranoaren Semé: eta emanen diraucan Iainco Iaunac bere aita Dauid-en thronoa.
He will be great, and will be named the Son of the Most High: and the Lord God will give him the kingdom of David, his father:
33 Eta regnaturen din Iacob-en etchearen gainean eternalqui, eta haren resumaren finic eztun içanen. (aiōn g165)
He will have rule over the house of Jacob for ever, and of his kingdom there will be no end. (aiōn g165)
34 Erran ciecón orduan Mariac Aingueruäri, Nola içanen da hori, guiçonic eçagutzen eztudanaz gueroz.
And Mary said to the angel, How may this be, because I have had no knowledge of a man?
35 Eta ihardesten çuela Aingueruäc erran cieçón, Spiritu saindua hire gainera ethorriren dun eta Subiranoaren verthuteac itzal eguinen draun eta halacotz hitaric sorthuren den saindua, Iaincoaren Seme deithuren dun.
And the angel in answer said to her, The Holy Spirit will come on you, and the power of the Most High will come to rest on you, and so that which will come to birth will be named holy, Son of God.
36 Eta hará, Elisabeth hire lehen gussua, harc-ere concebitu din semebat bere çahartzean, eta hil haur din seigarrena steril deitzen cenac.
Even now Elisabeth, who is of your family, is to be a mother, though she is old: and this is the sixth month with her who was without children.
37 Ecen eztun deus impossibleric içanen Iaincoa baithan.
For there is nothing which God is not able to do.
38 Eta erran ceçan Mariac, Huná Iaunaren nescatoa: eguin bequit hire hitzaren araura. Eta parti cedin harenganic Aingueruä.
And Mary said: I am the servant of the Lord; may it be to me as you say. And the angel went away.
39 Eta iaiquiric Maria egun hetan ioan cedin mendietara lehiatuqui Iudaco hiri batetara.
Then Mary got up and went quickly into the high lands, to a town of Judah;
40 Eta sar cedin Zachariasen etchera, eta saluta ceçan Elisabeth.
And went into the house of Zacharias and took Elisabeth in her arms.
41 Eta guertha cedin, ençun ceçanean Elisabethec Mariaren salutationea, iauz baitzedin haourra haren sabelean, eta bethe cedin Spiritu sainduaz Elisabeth:
And when the voice of Mary came to the ears of Elisabeth, the baby made a sudden move inside her; then Elisabeth was full of the Holy Spirit,
42 Eta oihuz iar cedin voz handiz, eta erran ceçan, Benedicatua hi emaztén artean, ecen benedicatua dun hire sabeleco fructua.
And she said with a loud voice: May blessing be on you among women, and a blessing on the child of your body.
43 Eta nondic haur niri, ethor dadin ene Iaunaren ama enegana?
How is it that the mother of my Lord comes to me?
44 Ecen huná, hire salutationearen voza ene beharrietara heldu içan den beçain sarri, iauci içan dun bozcarioz haourra ene sabelean.
For, truly, when the sound of your voice came to my ears, the baby in my body made a sudden move for joy.
45 Eta dohatsu aiz sinhetsi baitun, ceren complituren baitirade Iaunaz erran çaizquinan gauçác
Happy will she be who had faith that the things which the Lord has said to her will be done.
46 Eta dio Mariac, Magnificatzen du ene arimác Iauna.
And Mary said: My soul gives glory to God;
47 Eta alegueratu da ene spiritua Iainco ene Saluadorea baithan.
My spirit is glad in God my Saviour.
48 Ceren behatu vkan baitu bere nescatoaren beheratassunera: ecen huná, hemendic harat dohatsu erranen naute generatione guciéc.
For he has had pity on his servant, though she is poor and lowly placed: and from this hour will all generations give witness to the blessing which has come to me.
49 Ecen gauça handiac eguin drauzquit botheretsu denac: eta haren icena saindu da:
For he who is strong has done great things for me; and holy is his name.
50 Eta haren misericordia da generationetaric generationetara haren beldurra dutenetara.
His mercy is for all generations in whom is the fear of him.
51 Botheretsuqui eguin vkan du bere bessoaz: deseguin ditu superboac berén bihotzeco pensamenduan.
With his arm he has done acts of power; he has put to flight those who have pride in their hearts.
52 Egotzi ditu botheretsuac thronoetaric, eta goratu ditu chipiac.
He has put down kings from their seats, lifting up on high the men of low degree.
53 Gosse ciradenac bethe ditu onez: eta abratsac igorri ditu hutsic
Those who had no food he made full of good things; the men of wealth he sent away with nothing in their hands;
54 Sustengatu vkan du Israel bere haourra, bere misericordiáz orhoit içanez.
His help he has given to Israel, his servant, so that he might keep in mind his mercy to Abraham and his seed for ever,
As he gave his word to our fathers. (aiōn g165)
56 Eta egon cedin Maria harequin hirur hilebetheren inguruä: guero itzul cedin bere etcherát.
And Mary was with her for about three months and then went back to her house.
57 Eta compli cedin Elisabethen ertzeco demborá: eta erdi cedin seme batez.
Now it was time for Elisabeth to give birth, and she had a son.
58 Eta ençun ceçaten haren auçoéc eta ahaidéc, nola frangoqui Iaunac bere misericordia declaratu çuen harengana, eta alegueratzen ciraden harequin.
And it came to the ears of her neighbours and relations that the Lord had been very good to her, and they took part in her joy.
59 Eta guertha cedin, çortzigarreneco egunean ethor baitzitecen haourtchoaren circonciditzera, eta deitzen çuten hura bere aitaren icenaz, Zacharias.
And on the eighth day they came to see to the circumcision of the child, and they would have given him the name of Zacharias, his father's name;
60 Baina ihardesten çuela haren amac erran ceçan, Ez, baina deithuren da Ioannes.
But his mother made answer and said, No, his name is John.
61 Eta erran cieçoten, Eztun nehor hire ahaidetan icen horrez deitzen denic.
And they said, Not one of your relations has that name.
62 Orduan keinu eguin cieçoten haren aitari, nola nahi luen hura dei ledin.
And they made signs to his father, to say what name was to be given to him.
63 Eta harc tableta batzuren escaturic scriba ceçan, cioela, Ioannes da horren icena. Eta mirets ceçaten guciéc.
And he sent for writing materials and put down: His name is John; and they were all surprised.
64 Eta irequi cedin bertan haren ahoa, eta haren mihia lacha cedin: eta minço cen laudatzen çuela Iaincoa.
And straight away his mouth was open and his tongue was free and he gave praise to God.
65 Eta icidura ethor cedin aldiri hetaco gucién gainera, eta Iudaco herri mendiçu orotan publica citecen hitz hauc guciac.
And fear came on all those who were living round about them: and there was much talk about all these things in all the hill-country of Judaea.
66 Eta ençun cituzten guciéc, eçar citzaten bere bihotzean, erraiten çutela, Nor haourtcho haur içanen da? Eta Iaunaren escua cen harequin.
And all who had word of them kept them in their minds and said, What will this child be? For the hand of the Lord was with him.
67 Orduan haren aita Zacharias bethe cedin Spiritu sainduaz: eta prophetiza ceçan, cioela,
And his father, Zacharias, was full of the Holy Spirit, and with the voice of a prophet said these words:
68 Laudatu dela Israeleco Iainco Iauna, ceren visitatu eta redemitu baitu bere populua.
Praise be to the Lord, the God of Israel, for he has come to his people and made them free,
69 Eta alchatu baitraucu saluamendutaco adarra Dauid bere cerbitzariaren etchean.
Lifting up a horn of salvation for us in the house of his servant David,
(As he said, by the mouth of his holy prophets, from the earliest times, ) (aiōn g165)
71 Salbu içanen guinela gure etsayetaric eta guri gaitz çarizcuten gucién escutic.
Salvation from those who are against us, and from the hands of those who have hate for us;
72 Gure aitey misericordia leguiençat, eta orhoit licén bere alliança sainduaz:
To do acts of mercy to our fathers and to keep in mind his holy word,
73 Eta gure Aita Abrahami eguin ceraucan iuramenduaz:
The oath which he made to Abraham, our father,
74 Ecen emanen ceraucula, beldur gabe gure etsayén escuetaric deliuraturic, hura cerbitza guineçan,
That we, being made free from the fear of those who are against us, might give him worship,
75 Saindutassunetan eta iustitiatan haren aitzinean, gure vicico egun gucietan.
In righteousness and holy living before him all our days.
76 Eta hi haourtchoá, Subiranoaren Propheta deithuren aiz: ecen ioanen aiz Iaunaren beguitharte aitzinean, haren bideac appain ditzançat,
And you, child, will be named the prophet of the Most High: you will go before the face of the Lord, to make ready his ways;
77 Eta eman dieçoançat saluamenduco eçagutzea haren populuari, hayén bekatuén barkamenduaz.
To give knowledge of salvation to his people, through the forgiveness of sins,
78 Gure Iaincoaren affectione misericordiosoaz, ceinez visitatu vkan baiquaitu, Orientac garaitic:
Because of the loving mercies of our God, by which the dawn from heaven has come to us,
79 Argui daguiençat ilhumbean eta herioaren itzalean iarriric daudeney, gure oinen baquezco bidera chuchenceagatic.
To give light to those in dark places, and in the shade of death, so that our feet may be guided into the way of peace.
80 Eta haourtchoa handitzen eta spirituz fortificatzen cen: eta egon cedin desertuetan Israeli manifestatu behar içan çayón egunerano.
And the child became tall, and strong in spirit; and he was living in the waste land till the day when he came before the eyes of Israel.
