Lukas 1
1 CEREN anhitzec escu eçarri baitu narratione baten scribatzera complituqui gure artean certificatu içan diraden gaucéz,
Whereas many have undertaken to compose a narrative of the things, which have been fully certified among us;
2 Eçagutzera eman draucuten beçala lehen hatsetic ikussi dituztenéc eta hitzaren ministre içan diradenéc.
as they delivered them to us, who were from the beginning eye-witnesses of them, and ministers 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 also, having thoroughly traced them all from the very first, to write an account of them in order to thee,
4 Hobequi eçagut deçánçat ikassi dituán gaucén eguiá.
most excellent Theophilus, that thou mayst know the certainty of the things wherein thou hast been instructed.
5 HERODES Iudeaco regueren egunetan cen Zacharias deitzen cen Sacrificadorebat, Abiaren araldetic: eta haren emaztea cen Aaronen alabetaric, eta haren icena Elisabeth.
There was in the days of Herod king of Judea, a certain priest named Zacharias, of the course of Abia; and his wife was of the family of Aaron, and her name was Elisabeth.
6 Biac ciraden iusto Iaincoaren aitzinean, Iaunaren, manamendu eta ordenança gucietan reprochuric gabe çabiltzanac.
And they were both righteous in the sight of God, walking in all the commandments and ordinances of the Lord blameless.
7 Eta haourric etzutén, ceren Elisabeth steril baitzen, eta biac baitziraden adinez aitzinaratuac.
And they had no child, for Elisabeth was barren; and they were both far advanced in years.
8 Guertha cedin bada, harc Iaincoaren aitzinean bere aldian sacrificadoregoa exercitzen çuenean,
And it came to pass, while he was in the order of his course performing the priest's office before God,
9 Sacrificadoregoaren officioco costumaren araura, çorthea eror baitzequión Iaunaren templean sarthuric encensamenduaren eguiteco.
according to the custom of dividing the office of the priests, that it fell to his lot to burn incense, entring into the temple of the Lord:
10 Eta populu guciac campoan othoitz eguiten çuen encensamendua eguiten cen orduan.
and all the people were praying without at the time of offering incense.
11 Eta aguer cequión Iaunaren Aingueruä, cegoela encensamenduco aldarearen escuinean.
And there appeared to him an angel of the Lord standing on the right hand of the altar of incense.
12 Eta Zacharias trubla cedin hura ikussiric, eta icidurabat eror cedin haren gainera.
And when Zacharias saw him, he was startled and struck with fear:
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 unto him, Fear not, Zacharias; for thy prayer is heard, and thy wife Elisabeth shall bear thee a son, and thou shalt call his name John:
14 Eta bozcario eta alegrança vkanen duc, eta anhitz haren sortzearen gainean alegueraturen dituc,
and he shall be a joy and transport to thee, yea, many shall rejoice on account of his birth; for he shall be great in the sight of the Lord,
15 Ecen handi içanen duc Iaunaren aitzinean, eta mahatsarnoric ez berce arnoric eztic edanen: eta Spiritu sainduaz betheren datec bere amaren sabeleandanic.
and he shall drink neither wine nor any other strong liquor; and he shall be filled with the holy Spirit even from his birth;
16 Eta anhitz Israeleco haourretaric conuertituren dic berén Iainco Iaunagana.
and many of the children of Israel shall he convert unto 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 shall go before Him in the spirit and power of Elias, to turn the hearts of the fathers unto the children, and the disobedient to the wisdom of the just, to prepare for the Lord a people well-disposed.
18 Orduan erran cieçon Zachariasec Aingueruäri, Nolatán hori eçaguturen dut? ecen ni nauc çahar, eta ene emaztea duc bere egunetan aitzinaratua.
And Zacharias said unto the angel, Whereby shall I know this? for I am an old man, and my wife far advanced 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 to him, I am Gabriel, that stand in the presence of God, and I am sent to speak to thee, and to tell thee 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.
and now shalt thou be dumb, and not able to speak, until the day that these things shall come to pass; because thou believedst not my words, which shall be fulfilled at their season.
21 Eta populua cegoen Zachariasen beguira, eta miresten çuen nola harc hambat berancen çuen templean.
And the people were waiting for Zacharias, and wondered at his staying so long in the temple:
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.
but when he came out he could not speak to them, and they perceived that he had seen a vision in the temple; and he made signs to them, and continued speechless:
23 Eta guertha cedin, haren officioco egunac acabatu ciradenean, bere etcherát itzul baitzedin.
and as soon as the days of his ministration were accomplished, he departed to his own house.
24 Eta egun hayén ondoan haren emazte Elisabethec concebi ceçan: eta estal cedin borz hilebethez, cioela,
And after these days his wife Elisabeth conceived, and retired five months,
25 Segur, hunela eguin vkan draut Iaunac, visitatu nauen egunetan, ene laidoa guiçonén artetic ken leçançat.
saying, the Lord hath thus dealt with me in the days wherein he looked upon me to take away my reproach among men.
26 Eta seigarren hilebethean igor cedin Gabriel Aingueruä Iaincoaz Galileaco hiri Nazareth deitzen denera:
But in the sixth month the angel Gabriel was sent by God to a city of Galilee called Nazareth,
27 Dauid-en etchetico Ioseph deitzen cen guiçon-batequin fedatua cen virgina batgana: eta virginaren icena cen Maria.
to a virgin who was betrothed to a man, whose name was Joseph, of the house 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 when the angel came in to the room to her, he said, Hail, thou that art highly favoured; the Lord is with thee;
29 Eta hura, Ainguerua ikussiric trubla cedin haren erranaren gainean, eta pensatzen çuen ceric licén salutatione hura.
blessed art thou among women! and when she saw him, she was confused at what he said, and pondered in her mind what sort of salutation this could be.
30 Orduan diotsa Aingueruäc, Mariá, eztunala beldurric, ecen eriden dun gratia Iaincoa baithan.
And the angel said unto her, Fear not, Mary; for thou hast found favor with God:
31 Eta horrá, concebituren dun eure sabelean, eta erdiren aiz seme batez eta deithuren dun haren icena Iesus.
and behold thou shalt conceive in thy womb, and shalt bring forth a son, and shalt call his name JESUS:
32 Hura içanen dun handi, eta eritziren ciayón Subiranoaren Semé: eta emanen diraucan Iainco Iaunac bere aita Dauid-en thronoa.
He shall be great, and shall be called the Son of the Most High, and the Lord God shall give Him the throne of David his father,
33 Eta regnaturen din Iacob-en etchearen gainean eternalqui, eta haren resumaren finic eztun içanen. (aiōn g165)
and He shall reign over the house of Jacob for ever, and of his kingdom there shall be no end. (aiōn g165)
34 Erran ciecón orduan Mariac Aingueruäri, Nola içanen da hori, guiçonic eçagutzen eztudanaz gueroz.
Then said Mary to the angel, How can this be, since I am a virgin?
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 answered and said unto her, The holy Spirit shall come upon thee, and the power of the Most High shall overshadow thee, and therefore thine holy offspring shall be called the Son of God: and lo,
36 Eta hará, Elisabeth hire lehen gussua, harc-ere concebitu din semebat bere çahartzean, eta hil haur din seigarrena steril deitzen cenac.
thy cousin Elisabeth also hath conceived a son in her old age, and this is the sixth month with her that was called barren;
37 Ecen eztun deus impossibleric içanen Iaincoa baithan.
for nothing is impossible with God.
38 Eta erran ceçan Mariac, Huná Iaunaren nescatoa: eguin bequit hire hitzaren araura. Eta parti cedin harenganic Aingueruä.
Then Mary said, Behold the servant of the Lord, may it be unto me according to thy word. So the angel departed from her.
39 Eta iaiquiric Maria egun hetan ioan cedin mendietara lehiatuqui Iudaco hiri batetara.
Then Mary arose and went with speed into the hill-country, to a city of Juda,
40 Eta sar cedin Zachariasen etchera, eta saluta ceçan Elisabeth.
and came into the house of Zacharias, and saluted Elisabeth.
41 Eta guertha cedin, ençun ceçanean Elisabethec Mariaren salutationea, iauz baitzedin haourra haren sabelean, eta bethe cedin Spiritu sainduaz Elisabeth:
And as soon as Elisabeth heard the salutation of Mary, the child leaped in her womb, and Elisabeth was filled with 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 cried out with a loud voice, and said, Blessed art thou among women, and blessed is the fruit of thy womb:
43 Eta nondic haur niri, ethor dadin ene Iaunaren ama enegana?
and whence is this honor to me, that the mother of my Lord should come to me?
44 Ecen huná, hire salutationearen voza ene beharrietara heldu içan den beçain sarri, iauci içan dun bozcarioz haourra ene sabelean.
for behold, as soon as the voice of thy salutation reached my ears, the child in my womb leaped for joy:
45 Eta dohatsu aiz sinhetsi baitun, ceren complituren baitirade Iaunaz erran çaizquinan gauçác
and blessed is she that believed; for there shall be a performance of the things that were told her from the Lord.
46 Eta dio Mariac, Magnificatzen du ene arimác Iauna.
And Mary said, "My soul doth magnify the Lord, and my spirit hath rejoiced in God my Saviour;
47 Eta alegueratu da ene spiritua Iainco ene Saluadorea baithan.
for He hath regarded the low estate of his handmaid:
48 Ceren behatu vkan baitu bere nescatoaren beheratassunera: ecen huná, hemendic harat dohatsu erranen naute generatione guciéc.
for behold, from henceforth shall all generations call me blessed:
49 Ecen gauça handiac eguin drauzquit botheretsu denac: eta haren icena saindu da:
for He that is mighty hath done great things for me,
50 Eta haren misericordia da generationetaric generationetara haren beldurra dutenetara.
and his name is holy, and his mercy is on them that fear Him, unto all generations.
51 Botheretsuqui eguin vkan du bere bessoaz: deseguin ditu superboac berén bihotzeco pensamenduan.
He hath wrought powerfully with his arm; He hath confounded those that were proud in the imagination of their heart.
52 Egotzi ditu botheretsuac thronoetaric, eta goratu ditu chipiac.
He hath cast down the mighty from their thrones, and exalted the humble.
53 Gosse ciradenac bethe ditu onez: eta abratsac igorri ditu hutsic
He hath filled the hungry with good things, and the rich He hath sent away empty.
54 Sustengatu vkan du Israel bere haourra, bere misericordiáz orhoit içanez.
He hath supported Israel his servant,
in remembrance of his mercy (even as He promised to our fathers, to Abraham and to his seed, ) for ever." (aiōn g165)
56 Eta egon cedin Maria harequin hirur hilebetheren inguruä: guero itzul cedin bere etcherát.
And Mary stayed with her about three months, and then returned to her own house.
57 Eta compli cedin Elisabethen ertzeco demborá: eta erdi cedin seme batez.
Now when Elisabeth's time for her delivery was fully come, she brought forth a son:
58 Eta ençun ceçaten haren auçoéc eta ahaidéc, nola frangoqui Iaunac bere misericordia declaratu çuen harengana, eta alegueratzen ciraden harequin.
and her neighbours and kindred heard that the Lord had magnified his mercy towards her, and they congratulated her;
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 circumcise the child: and they would have called him Zacharias, after the name of his father:
60 Baina ihardesten çuela haren amac erran ceçan, Ez, baina deithuren da Ioannes.
but his mother said, No, but he shall be called John:
61 Eta erran cieçoten, Eztun nehor hire ahaidetan icen horrez deitzen denic.
and they said to her, There is none of thy relations of this name.
62 Orduan keinu eguin cieçoten haren aitari, nola nahi luen hura dei ledin.
And they made signs to his father, what name he would have him called by.
63 Eta harc tableta batzuren escaturic scriba ceçan, cioela, Ioannes da horren icena. Eta mirets ceçaten guciéc.
And he called for a writing-tablet, and wrote upon it, His name is John: and they all wondered.
64 Eta irequi cedin bertan haren ahoa, eta haren mihia lacha cedin: eta minço cen laudatzen çuela Iaincoa.
And his mouth was opened immediately, and his tongue loosed, and he spake and praised God.
65 Eta icidura ethor cedin aldiri hetaco gucién gainera, eta Iudaco herri mendiçu orotan publica citecen hitz hauc guciac.
And an awe fell upon all that dwelt round about them; and all these things were divulged through the whole hill-country of Judea.
66 Eta ençun cituzten guciéc, eçar citzaten bere bihotzean, erraiten çutela, Nor haourtcho haur içanen da? Eta Iaunaren escua cen harequin.
And all that heard them, laid them up in their hearts, saying, What a child will this be? And 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 filled with the holy Spirit,
68 Laudatu dela Israeleco Iainco Iauna, ceren visitatu eta redemitu baitu bere populua.
and prophesied, saying, "Blessed be the Lord God of Israel, for He hath visited and wrought redemption for his people,
69 Eta alchatu baitraucu saluamendutaco adarra Dauid bere cerbitzariaren etchean.
and hath raised up an horn of salvation for us,
in the house of his servant David, as He spake by the mouth of his holy prophets from the beginning, (aiōn g165)
71 Salbu içanen guinela gure etsayetaric eta guri gaitz çarizcuten gucién escutic.
even salvation from our enemies, and from the hand of all that hate us,
72 Gure aitey misericordia leguiençat, eta orhoit licén bere alliança sainduaz:
to display his mercy towards our fathers, and to remember his holy covenant,
73 Eta gure Aita Abrahami eguin ceraucan iuramenduaz:
according to the oath which He sware to Abraham our father,
74 Ecen emanen ceraucula, beldur gabe gure etsayén escuetaric deliuraturic, hura cerbitza guineçan,
to grant unto us, that we being delivered out of the hand of our enemies, might serve Him without fear, in holiness and righteousness before Him,
75 Saindutassunetan eta iustitiatan haren aitzinean, gure vicico egun gucietan.
all the days of our life.
76 Eta hi haourtchoá, Subiranoaren Propheta deithuren aiz: ecen ioanen aiz Iaunaren beguitharte aitzinean, haren bideac appain ditzançat,
And thou, my child, shalt be called the prophet of the most High; for thou shalt go before the face of the Lord,
77 Eta eman dieçoançat saluamenduco eçagutzea haren populuari, hayén bekatuén barkamenduaz.
to make known salvation to his people,
78 Gure Iaincoaren affectione misericordiosoaz, ceinez visitatu vkan baiquaitu, Orientac garaitic:
in the remission of their sins, through the tender mercy of our God, whereby the day-spring hath visited us from on high,
79 Argui daguiençat ilhumbean eta herioaren itzalean iarriric daudeney, gure oinen baquezco bidera chuchenceagatic.
to enlighten them that sit in darkness and in the shadow of death, to direct our feet 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 grew, and became strong in spirit: and he was in the deserts till the time of his being manifested to Israel.
