< Luke 2 >

1 Now it came about in those days that an order went out from Caesar Augustus that there was to be a numbering of all the world.
Lao esa, leleꞌ Kirenius dadꞌi malangga mana parenda sia Siria, ma mane monaeꞌ, naran Agustus, fee parendaꞌ nae, “Basa atahori mana sia manaparenda Roma koasan musi baliꞌ kambon fo tungga sensus!” Naa fefeun fo manaparenda Roma reken rauinggu nara.
2 This was the first numbering, which was made when Quirinius was ruler of Syria.
3 And all men went to be numbered, everyone to his town.
Dadꞌi basa atahori baliꞌ kambon fo tungga sensus.
4 And Joseph went up from Galilee, out of the town of Nazareth, into Judaea, to Beth-lehem, the town of David, because he was of the house and family of David,
Leleꞌ naa, Yusuf leo sia kambo Nazaret sia propinsi Galilea. Ana nae laꞌe ana fetoꞌ sa, naran Maria, de mana henggene basaꞌ ena. Maria ia, mairuꞌ ena. Yusuf naa, mane Daud tititi-nonosin, de musi baliꞌ risiꞌ Betlehem kota Daud sia propinsi Yudea fo tungga sensus. Naa de ruꞌa se lao kota Betlehem reu.
5 To be put on the list with Mary, his future wife, who was about to become a mother.
6 And while they were there, the time came for her to give birth.
Leleꞌ ara losa naa ena, Maria fula-fai bobꞌonggin nae losa boe.
7 And she had her first son; and folding him in linen, she put him to rest in the place where the cattle had their food, because there was no room for them in the house.
Te sia naa, ara nda hambu kama sia ume sesebaꞌ sa. De ara risiꞌ lalaet bibꞌi rala. Boe ma ana bꞌonggi Ana ulun, touꞌ. Boe ma ara ralusa E rendiꞌ temeꞌ, ma rasusunggu sia haꞌo rala.
8 And in the same country there were keepers of sheep in the fields, watching over their flock by night.
Tetembaꞌ naa, hambu manatadꞌa hira beꞌe ranea bibꞌi lombo nara sia lenuꞌ sia kota a deaꞌ.
9 And an angel of the Lord came to them, and the glory of the Lord was shining round about them: and fear came on them.
Aiboiꞌ ma, ara rita Lamatualain aten mia sorga. Boe ma Lamatuaꞌ manggarelon naronda rereoꞌ se, de ramatau rae mate.
10 And the angel said, Have no fear; for truly, I give you good news of great joy which will be for all the people:
Ma ate naa nafadꞌe nae, “Ama afiꞌ mimitau dei! Rena malolole, e! Huu Au uma ufadꞌe hara-lii maloleꞌ sa neu nggi. Basa mana rena hara-liiꞌ ia, ramahoꞌo.
11 For on this day, in the town of David, a Saviour has come to birth, who is Christ the Lord.
Hara-lii maloleꞌ ia liin taꞌo ia: Faiꞌ ia inaꞌ sa bꞌonggi Kristus, sia Betlehem, mane Daud kotan. Kristus naa, Atahori fo Lamatualain helu-fuli eniꞌ a maꞌahulun. Lamatuaꞌ haitua E nema fo soi-tefa atahori sala-kilu nara! Eni ia, dei fo atahori roꞌe rae, ‘Lamatuaꞌ’, huu Eni mana parenda basaꞌ e!
12 And this is the sign to you: you will see a young child folded in linen, in the place where the cattle have their food.
Dei fo hei mihine E taꞌo ia: hei mindaa Anadikiꞌ sa nenebꞌonggi feuꞌ mana nelusaꞌ no temeꞌ. Ana sungguꞌ sia haꞌo rala.”
13 And suddenly there was with the angel a great band of spirits from heaven, giving praise to God, and saying,
Ana olaꞌ basa ma, aiboiꞌ te, Lamatualain aten hetar mia sorga rema raꞌabꞌue ro E. Boe ma ara koa-kio Lamatualain ma sodꞌa rae,
14 Glory to God in the highest, and on the earth peace among men with whom he is well pleased.
“Hai soꞌu minanaru Lamatualain naran! Eni mana endoꞌ parenda sia lalai narun manaseliꞌ a. Lamatualain nae fee dꞌame neu atahori sia raefafoꞌ, naa tao ralan namahoꞌo!’.
15 And when the angels had gone away from them into heaven, the keepers of the sheep said to one another, Let us go now to Beth-lehem, and see this thing which has come about, which the Lord has made clear to us.
Basa de, Lamatuaꞌ ate nara baliꞌ sorga reu. Boe ma manatadꞌa naa ra ola-olaꞌ rae, “We! Ata Betlehem teu seꞌu tita Anaꞌ naa dei! Huu Lamatuaꞌ fee haraꞌ neu nggita ena.”
16 And they came quickly, and saw Mary and Joseph, and the child in the place where the cattle had their food.
Boe ma ara lao lai-lai Betlehem reu. De ara randaa ro Maria no Yusuf. Ara o rita Anadiki mana bꞌonggi feuꞌ a mana sungguꞌ sia haꞌo rala.
17 And when they saw it, they gave them an account of the things which had been said to them about the child.
Leleꞌ ara rita Anaꞌ a, ma ara dui rae, “Faꞌra Lamatualain ate nara mia sorga rafadꞌe hai soꞌal Anaꞌ ia ena!” Boe ma ara duꞌi lutuꞌ-leloꞌ losa basa.
18 And all those to whose ears it came were full of wonder at the things said by the keepers of the sheep.
Basa atahori mana rena manatadꞌa ra dudꞌui nara, mbombooꞌ a.
19 But Mary kept all these words in her heart, and gave much thought to them.
Te Maria mbedꞌaꞌ basa mana dadꞌiꞌ naa sia ralan. Ma ana dꞌuꞌa-dꞌuꞌa sangga nahine dalaꞌ naa sosoan.
20 Then the keepers of the sheep went back, giving glory and praise to God for all the things which had come to their ears and which they had seen, as it had been said to them.
Basa de, manatadꞌa ra baliꞌ risiꞌ bibꞌi lombo nara. Ma ara soꞌu rananaru Lamatualain naran. Roꞌe makasi neu E, huu saa fo ara rena ma ritaꞌ naa, tebꞌe ona saa fo Lamatuaꞌ aten nafadꞌeꞌ a.
21 And when, after eight days, the time came for his circumcision, he was named Jesus, the name which the angel had given to him before his birth.
Fai falu, ma ara sunat anadikiꞌ a, tungga baꞌi Musa hohoro-lalanen. De ina-ama nara babꞌae naran ‘Yesus’. Naraꞌ naa, ate mana mia sorga nafadꞌe neu se ena, leleꞌ inan nda feꞌe nairu E sa.
22 And when the necessary days for making them clean by the law of Moses had come to an end, they took him to Jerusalem to give him to the Lord
Hambu hohoro-lalaneꞌ sa mia baꞌi Musa nae, ina mana bꞌonggi basa fai haa nulu musi neu tao tungga adꞌat nameu-aoꞌ sia Ume Hule-oꞌe Huuꞌ a. Naa fo ara bisa masoꞌ ume hule-oꞌeꞌ a rala reu onaꞌ biasa. Naa de, Yusuf no Maria Yerusalem reu, fo tao tungga adꞌat naa. Ma ara rendi sira Ana mana bꞌonggi feun nisiꞌ Ume Hule-oꞌe Huuꞌ a, fo fee ne dadꞌi Lamatuaꞌ enan.
23 (As it says in the law of the Lord, Every mother's first male child is to be holy to the Lord),
Ara tungga Lamatuaꞌ hohoro-lalanen mana nae, “Sudꞌiꞌ a inaꞌ se bꞌonggi ana ulun, mete ma touꞌ, na, musi fee anaꞌ naa dadꞌi Lamatuaꞌ enan.”
24 And to make an offering, as it is ordered in the law of the Lord, of two doves or other young birds.
Tungga Lamatuaꞌ hohoro-lalanen, mete ma fee anaꞌ naa neu Lamatuaꞌ, ama-ina nara musi fee tutunu-hohotuꞌ mbui teu pasan esa, do mbui lunda mandaꞌ rua. Naa de Yusuf no Maria o tao tungga hohoro-lalaneꞌ naa.
25 And there was then in Jerusalem a man whose name was Simeon; and he was an upright man, fearing God and waiting for the comfort of Israel: and the Holy Spirit was on him.
Leleꞌ naa, hambu tou lasiꞌ sa, naran Simeon, leo sia kota Yerusalem. Eni, Atahori rala ndoos ma ralan hii Lamatuaꞌ. Lamatuaꞌ Dula-dale Meumaren nafadꞌe neu e nae, hela ana nita Kristus, dei fo ana feꞌe maten. Kristus naa, mana fee masodꞌaꞌ neu atahori Israꞌel ra.
26 And he had knowledge, through the Holy Spirit, that he would not see death till he had seen the Lord's Christ.
27 And full of the Spirit he came into the Temple; and when the father and mother came in with the child Jesus, to do with him what was ordered by the law,
Leleꞌ naa, Lamatuaꞌ Dula-dalen nendi Simeon nisiꞌ Ume Hule-oꞌe Huuꞌ a. Naa nandaa no Yesus ama-ina nara ro E nisiꞌ naa, fo fee ne dadꞌi Lamatuaꞌ enan.
28 Then he took him in his arms and gave praise to God and said,
Nita Anaꞌ a ma, tou lasiꞌ Simeon oꞌo nala E, ma soꞌu koa-kioꞌ neu Lamatualain nae,
29 Now you are letting your servant go in peace, O Lord, as you have said;
“Koa-kio Lamatuaꞌ! Lamatuaꞌ tao tungga hehelu-fufulin neu au ena. Dadꞌi ia naa, Lamatuaꞌ bisa mboꞌi au ena, naa fo au mate no maloleꞌ,
30 For my eyes have seen your salvation,
Huu au ita Atahori fo Lamatuaꞌ haituaꞌ a ena, fo fee ambon neu hai sala-kilu mara!
31 Which you have made ready before the face of all nations;
Lamatuaꞌ nae pake Anaꞌ ia fo fee masodꞌaꞌ neu basa nusaꞌ ra.
32 A light of revelation to the Gentiles, and the glory of your people Israel.
Dei fo Ana onaꞌ rondaꞌ fo mana nendi hadꞌa-hormat neu Lamatuaꞌ atahori Israꞌel nara. Ana o onaꞌ manggareloꞌ a, fo mana matudꞌu Lamatuaꞌ dꞌalan. fee basa nusa feaꞌ ra.”
33 And his father and mother were full of wonder at the things which were said about him.
Rena taꞌo naa, ma Yusuf no Maria heran bali-baliꞌ neu saa fo tou lasiꞌ a olaꞌ soꞌal sira Anan.
34 And Simeon gave them his blessing and said to Mary, his mother, See, this child will be the cause of the downfall and the lifting up of great numbers of people in Israel, and he will be a sign against which hard words will be said;
Basa de, Simeon olaꞌ papala-babꞌanggiꞌ fee se. Boe ma ana nafadꞌe Maria nae, “Yesus maman e! Dei fo atahori hetar sia Israꞌel nda simbo mama Anan ia sa. Te tatao-nonoꞌi nara mbali E, dei fo ratudaꞌ baliꞌ se. Mama Anan ia, o tao fee atahori hetar rala nara ramahoꞌo.
35 (And a sword will go through your heart; ) so that the secret thoughts of men may come to light.
No taꞌo naa, dei fo Lamatuaꞌ soi natudꞌu atahori ra rala-dꞌudꞌuꞌa nara. Te ho, Maria, dei fo hambu doidꞌosoꞌ naen seli, onaꞌ fela tafaꞌ nenembauꞌ nisiꞌ tenda boam rala.”
36 And there was one, Anna, a woman prophet, the daughter of Phanuel, of the family of Asher (she was very old, and after seven years of married life
Sia Ume Hule-oꞌe Huuꞌ a o hambu beiꞌ sa, naran Hana. Ana too falu nulu haa ena. Aman, naran Fanuel, mia leo Aser. Ana sao too hitu, boe ma saon mate hela e. Bei Hana Ia, Lamatualain mana ola-olan. Ue-tataon, naeni hule-oꞌe ma puasa sia Ume Hule-oꞌe Huuꞌ a, fo beꞌutee neu Lamatualain hatuꞌ-rerelon.
37 She had been a widow for eighty-four years); she was in the Temple at all times, worshipping with prayers and going without food, night and day.
38 And coming up at that time, she gave praise to God, talking of him to all those who were waiting for the freeing of Jerusalem.
Leleꞌ Simeon olaꞌ no Yusuf ma Maria, Hana o neu deka-deka boe. De ana rena se, ma ana soꞌu kokoa-kikioꞌ neu Lamatualain. Basa ma ana olaꞌ soꞌal Yesus neu basa atahori mana rahani Maneꞌ fo Lamatuaꞌ helu nae haitua nema fo mboꞌi atahori Israꞌel ra.
39 And when they had done all the things which were ordered by the law of the Lord, they went back to Galilee, to Nazareth, the town where they were living.
Leleꞌ Yusuf no Maria tao tungga baꞌi Musa hohoro-lalane nara sia kota Yerusalem ena, boe ma ara baliꞌ risiꞌ sira kambon Nasaret sia propinsi Galilea.
40 And the child became tall and strong and full of wisdom, and the grace of God was on him.
Boe ma Yesus boe naꞌamoko. Ana boe maꞌadereꞌ, boe nahine, ma nahine dalaꞌ naeꞌ sosoa-ndandaa nara. Lamatualain o natudꞌu rala malolen neu E.
41 And every year his father and mother went to Jerusalem at the feast of the Passover.
Tungga too, Yusuf no Maria reu raa fefeta Paska sia Kota Yerusalem.
42 And when he was twelve years old, they went up, as their way was, to the feast;
Leleꞌ Yesus too sanahulu rua, ara reu risiꞌ Yerusalem fo tungga fefetas ona biasa na.
43 And when the days of the feast came to an end and they were going back, the boy Jesus was still in Jerusalem, but they had no knowledge of it:
Leleꞌ fai-fai Paska basa ena, boe ma Yusuf no Maria lao baliꞌ Nasaret reu ramaloloꞌ ro atahori hetar mana rae baliꞌ Galilea reu. Te nda bubꞌuluꞌ rae, Yesus feꞌe sia Yerusalem sa. Ara rae neꞌo Ana lao namaloloꞌ no nonoo nara. Te, losa bobꞌoꞌ ena, nda rita E sa. Boe ma ara sangga E reu-rema sia bobꞌonggi nara ma nonoo nara.
44 And in the belief that he was with some of their number, they went a day's journey; and after looking for him among their relations and friends,
45 And seeing that he was not there, they went back to Jerusalem, to make search for him.
Huu nda hambu randa ro E sa, de ara lao baliꞌ Yerusalem reu, fo sangga E sia naa.
46 And after three days they came across him in the Temple, seated among the wise men, giving ear to their words and putting questions to them.
Losa naa, ara sangga E losa fai telu, dei de hambu E mia Ume Hule-oꞌe Huuꞌ a rala. Ana endoꞌ naselu-bale no meser agama Yahudi ra.
47 And all to whose ears it came were full of wonder at his knowledge and the answers which he gave.
Basa atahori mana rena se mbomboꞌ a, huu Ana nahine tebꞌe-tebꞌeꞌ Lamatualain Hara-liin sosoa-ndandan, ma Ana nataa netane nara no maloleꞌ.
48 And when they saw him they were surprised, and his mother said to him, Son, why have you done this to us? see, your father and I have been looking for you with sorrow.
Rita taꞌo naa ma, ina-ama nara titindindiꞌ a. Boe ma inan nae, “Yesus! Taꞌo bee de tao hai susa onaꞌ ia? Au o ama ma susa-susa sangga rereoꞌ Nggo.
49 And he said to them, Why were you looking for me? was it not clear to you that my right place was in my Father's house?
Te Yesus nataa nae, “Taꞌo bee de papa no mama susa-susa sangga Au? Bꞌubꞌuluꞌ ena, to? Au hambu ue-taos sia Ama Ngga Umen.”
50 And his words seemed strange to them.
Te ara nda rahine Yesus oꞌolan no matetuꞌ sa.
51 And he went down with them and came to Nazareth; and did as he was ordered: and his mother kept all these words in her heart.
Boe ma basa se baliꞌ Nasaret reu. Yesus tungga ina-aman parenda nara. Ma inan mbedaꞌ basa dalaꞌ naa ra sia ralan.
52 And Jesus was increasing in wisdom and in years, and in grace before God and men.
Ma Yesus boe naꞌamoko ma, boe nahine basa dꞌala maloleꞌ ra. Lamatualain ma atahori o sue E boe.
