Luke 2
1 And it came to pass in those days, that there went out a decree from Cæsar Augustus, that all the world should be taxed.
Gene mobhago, a Kaishali bhashemwaga a Augushito, bhakulungwa bhakulu bha upalume gwa Shiloma bhashinkulajiya bhalikwaapinganga bhandunji bhowe bhalinginji muupalume gwabho bhakajandikwanje.
2 ( And this taxing was first made when Cyrenius was governor of Syria.)
Kwene kujandikwako pukwaaliji kutandubha kwene kuumila a Kileniashi pubhaaliji bhakulungwa bha shilambo sha ku Shilia.
3 And all went to be taxed, every one into his own city.
Bhai bhowe bhapinjikwenje gubhapitengenenje kuujandikwa kila mundu kushilambo shakwe shabhelekwe.
4 And Joseph also went up from Galilee, out of the city of Nazareth, into Judæa, unto the city of David, which is called Bethlehem; ( because he was of the house and lineage of David: )
A Yoshepu nabhalabho ni gubhajabhwile ku Nashaleti, shilambo sha ku Galilaya, pabha pubhaaliji bha ulongo bha shipinga shimo na bhakulungwa a Daudi, gubhapite ku Bheteleemu shilambo sha ku Yudea kubhabhelekwe bhakulungwa a Daudi.
5 To be taxed with Mary his espoused wife, being great with child.
Gubhapite kuujandikwa na bha ntemela gwabho a Malia bhali na shitumbo.
6 And so it was, that, while they were there, the days were accomplished that she should be delivered.
Bhalinginji ku Bheteleemu, lyubha lyabho lya kwiigopola likuishilaga,
7 And she brought forth her firstborn son, and wrapped him in swaddling clothes, and laid him in a manger; because there was no room for them in the inn.
gubhankwete mwana lielo lyabho, gubhanng'washiye nngubho shinambombe, gubhanngoneshe pa lila ng'ombe, pabha bhakapatilenjeje pa gona nnyumba ja bhajeninji.
8 And there were in the same country shepherds abiding in the field, keeping watch over their flock by night.
Tome na ku Bheteleemu bhashinkupagwanga bhashunga bhatamanganaga mukonde, shilo bhalinginji muulinda gwa ngondolo yabhonji.
9 And, lo, the angel of the Lord came upon them, and the glory of the Lord shone round about them: and they were sore afraid.
Malaika jwa a Nnungu gwabhakoposhelenje na Ukonjelo gwa Bhakulungwa a Nnungu ukwamulishilangaga powe. Gubhatengukenje.
10 And the angel said unto them, Fear not: for, behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy, which shall be to all people.
Ikabheje malaika gwabhalugulilenje, “Nnatengukanje! Pabha njikwiya kummalanjilanga ngani ja mmbone, jakwaanonyelanga bhandu bhowe.
11 For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Saviour, which is Christ the Lord.
Lelo nshilambo sha a Daudi ashibhelekwa nkutapula jwenunji, jwenejo ni Kilishitu ali Nkulungwa.
12 And this shall be a sign unto you; Ye shall find the babe wrapped in swaddling clothes, lying in a manger.
Na sheshino shishibhe shilangulo shenunji. Shimunng'imananje nambombe awashiywe nngubho ya shinambombe, agonekwe pa lila ng'ombe.”
13 And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising God, and saying,
Shangupe likundi lyalikulungwa lya ashimalaika bhananji bha kunnungu bhakwiilundangaga pamo naka malaika jula, bhalikwainiyanga a Nnungu bhalinkutinji.
14 Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good will toward men.
“Bhakuywe a Nnungu kunani kunnunungu, Na pa shilambolyo pabhe na ulele, ku bhandu bhakwaanonyelanga.”
15 And it came to pass, as the angels were gone away from them into heaven, the shepherds said one to another, Let us now go even unto Bethlehem, and see this thing which is come to pass, which the Lord hath made known unto us.
Ashimalaika bhala, bhakajabhulanganeje kubhuja kunnungu, bhashunga gubhabhalanjilenenje. “Twendangananje ku Bheteleemu tukalibhone lyene likoposhele libhatubhalanjile Bhakulungwa.”
16 And they came with haste, and found Mary, and Joseph, and the babe lying in a manger.
Bhai, gubhapitengenenje lubhilo, gubhaimenenje a Malia na a Yoshepu naka nambombe jula agonekwe pa lila ng'ombe.
17 And when they had seen it, they made known abroad the saying which was told them concerning this child.
Bhashunga bhakammonanjeje mwana jula gubhaalungushiyenje bhandu bhowe ngani jakwe jibhapilikenenje jila.
18 And all they that heard it wondered at those things which were told them by the shepherds.
Bhowe bhapilikenenje jene ngani jibhalugulilwangaga na bhashungajo bhala gubhakanganigwenje.
19 But Mary kept all these things, and pondered them in her heart.
Ikabheje a Malia gubhagabhishile gowe muntima akuno bhaliganishiya.
20 And the shepherds returned, glorifying and praising God for all the things that they had heard and seen, as it was told unto them.
Bhashunga bhala gubhabhujengenenje, akuno bhalikwakuyanga na kwaainiya a Nnungu, kwa gowe gubhapilikenenje na kugabhona, gashinkubha malinga shibhalugulilwenje.
21 And when eight days were accomplished for the circumcising of the child, his name was called JESUS, which was so named of the angel before he was conceived in the womb.
Gakamalileje mobha nane mwana gwatagwile unyago, gubhanshemilenje lina lyakwe Yeshu, lina lyapegwilwe na malaika jwa a Nnungu, akwabhe bhakanabhe jukuta shitumbo.
22 And when the days of her purification according to the law of Moses were accomplished, they brought him to Jerusalem, to present him to the Lord;
Lukapiteje luuko, malinga Shalia ja a Musha shijilajila, a Yoshepu na akongobhabho a Malia gubhampelekenje mwana ku Yelushalemu kukunkamuya ku Bhakulungwa,
23 ( As it is written in the law of the Lord, Every male that openeth the womb shall be called holy to the Lord; )
malinga Shalia ja Bhakulungwa shijishite, “Kila mwana jwa lielo jwannume shaabhe jwa ukonjelo jwa Bhakulungwa.”
24 And to offer a sacrifice according to that which is said in the law of the Lord, A pair of turtledoves, or two young pigeons.
Nneila peila gubhashoshiyenje mbepei ya nnjubha ibhili eu mabhunda gabhili ga ngunda, malinga Shalia ja Bhakulungwa shijapingaga.
25 And, behold, there was a man in Jerusalem, whose name was Simeon; and the same man was just and devout, waiting for the consolation of Israel: and the Holy Ghost was upon him.
Gene mobhago ku Yelushalemu bhashinkupagwa bhandu bhamo, pubhaliji bhandu bha aki na bhatendaga kwaatindibhalila a Nnungu, pubhashemwaga a Shimoni. Bhenebho bhatendaga lolela gwa lilaka ntapulo gwa bha Ishilaeli. Mbumu jwa Ukonjelo paaliji pamo na bhenebho alikwaataga ntima.
26 And it was revealed unto him by the Holy Ghost, that he should not see death, before he had seen the Lord’s Christ.
Mbumu jwa Ukonjelo ashinkwaibhulila kuti bhakawa bhakanabhe kummona Kilishitu jwa Bhakulungwa.
27 And he came by the Spirit into the temple: and when the parents brought in the child Jesus, to do for him after the custom of the law,
Bhai bhalilongoywa na Mbumu jwa Ukonjelo, a Shimoni gubhapite ku Liekalu. A Yoshepu na akongobhabho, gubhampelekenje mwana Yeshu Nniekalu kukuntendela malinga nkubho gwa Shalia ja a Musha shijapingaga.
28 Then took he him up in his arms, and blessed God, and said,
A Shimoni gubhamposhele mwana Yeshu jula mmakono gabho, akuno bhalikwakuya a Nnungu, bhalinkuti.
29 Lord, now lettest thou thy servant depart in peace, according to thy word:
“Mmakulungwa nnaino malagano genu gamalile, Mpingaga munneshe ntumishi jwenu akapumulile kwa ulele malinga shimwalajile.
30 For mine eyes have seen thy salvation,
Pabha meyo gangu gaubhweni ntapulo gwenu,
31 Which thou hast prepared before the face of all people;
gummishile tayali ku bhandu bha ilambo yowe,
32 A light to lighten the Gentiles, and the glory of thy people Israel.
sheneshi ni shilangaya shipinga kwaamulishilanga bhandu bhangali kubha Bhayaudi, na Ukonjelo ku bhandu bhenu bha Ishilaeli.”
33 And Joseph and his mother marvelled at those things which were spoken of him.
Ainamundu na akwabhe Yeshu gubhakanganigwenje kwa malobhe gabheleketwe kwa ligongo lika mwana.
34 And Simeon blessed them, and said unto Mary his mother, Behold, this child is set for the fall and rising again of many in Israel; and for a sign which shall be spoken against;
A Shimoni gubhaapelenje mboka, gubhaalugulile a Malia, akwabhe Yeshu, “Aju mwanaju ashibhelekwa kwa ligongo lya kutuluywa na kukuywa kwa bhandu bhabhagwinji nshilambo sha Ishilaeli. Na jweneju shaabhe shilapo shipinga kanwa na bhandu.
35 ( Yea, a sword shall pierce through thy own soul also, ) that the thoughts of many hearts may be revealed.
Kwa nneyo ng'aniyo ya bhandu bhabhagwinji ipinga bhoneka gwangali nng'iyo! Na mmwe mmayene ntima gwenu upinga kumpoteka mbuti nng'omilwe na lipanga.”
36 And there was one Anna, a prophetess, the daughter of Phanuel, of the tribe of Asher: she was of a great age, and had lived with an husband seven years from her virginity;
Bhashinkupagwa bhakongwe bhamo bhakongopa, a nkulondola bha a Nnungu lina lyabho a Ana abhiti a Panueli bha shipinga sha a Asheli. Bhashinkulombwa nitama nshilombani yaka shabha ambunjebhabho ni gubhawile.
37 And she was a widow of about fourscore and four years, which departed not from the temple, but served God with fastings and prayers night and day.
Gubhatemi nshitenga yaka makumi nane na nsheshe. Mobha gowego mubhatamaga Nniekalu bhalitabha nkwaajuga a Nnungu shilo na mui.
38 And she coming in that instant gave thanks likewise unto the Lord, and spake of him to all them that looked for redemption in Jerusalem.
Popo pego, gubhaikopweye mmujo, gubhatendile eja kwa a Nnungu na gubhalungwiye ngani jika jwene mwanajo kubhandu bhowe bhatemingenenje nkulindilila kutapulwa kwa Yelushalemu.
39 And when they had performed all things according to the law of the Lord, they returned into Galilee, to their own city Nazareth.
Ainamundu na anyinamundu bhakatendanjeje yowe yalajilwe na Shalia ja Bhakulungwa, gubhabhujengene kunngwabhonji ku Nashaleti nshilambo sha ku Galilaya.
40 And the child grew, and waxed strong in spirit, filled with wisdom: and the grace of God was upon him.
Mwana gwakulile, gwapundile kukola mashili, gwagumbele lunda na nema ja a Nnungu pujaaliji naka jwenejo.
41 Now his parents went to Jerusalem every year at the feast of the passover.
Ainamundu na anyinamundu malinga shigwaliji nkubho gwabhonji gwa kwenda ku Yelushalemu kila shaka mobha ga shikukuu ja Shiyaudi jishemwa Pashaka.
42 And when he was twelve years old, they went up to Jerusalem after the custom of the feast.
Yeshu akaishileje yaka likumi limo na ibhili malinga shigwaliji nkubho gwabhonji bhowe gubhajombokenje kwenda kushikukuu.
43 And when they had fulfilled the days, as they returned, the child Jesus tarried behind in Jerusalem; and Joseph and his mother knew not of it.
Shikapiteje shikukuu, gubhatandubhenje mwanja gwa bhuja kunngwabhonji, ikabheje Yeshu gwalepeshe ku Yelushalemu, gwangali ainagwe na akwabhe kumumanyanga.
44 But they, supposing him to have been in the company, went a day’s journey; and they sought him among their kinsfolk and acquaintance.
Pubhaganishiyangaga kuti mwali munkumbi gwa bhandu, gubhapitengenenje mwanja gwa totolo, kungai gubhatandubhenje kunnoleya kubhaulongo na kwa ashaambwiga ajabhonji.
45 And when they found him not, they turned back again to Jerusalem, seeking him.
Pabha bhangammonanga, gubhabhujengenenje ku Yelushalemu pita kunnoleya.
46 And it came to pass, that after three days they found him in the temple, sitting in the midst of the doctors, both hearing them, and asking them questions.
Lyubha lya tatu, gubhanng'imenenje ku Liekalu ali atemi munkumbi gwa bhaajiganya bha Shalia alikwaapilikanishiyanga akuno alikwaabhuyanga.
47 And all that heard him were astonished at his understanding and answers.
Bhowe bhapilikenenje malobhe gakwe, bhashinkulapanga kwa ijangulo yakwe na lunda lwakwe.
48 And when they saw him, they were amazed: and his mother said unto him, Son, why hast thou thus dealt with us? behold, thy father and I have sought thee sorrowing.
Ainagwe na akwabhe bhashinkukanganigwanga bhakammonanjeje. Akwabhe a Malia gubhammushiye, “Gwe mwanangu, kwa nndi ushikututenda nnei? Nne na ainago tushikuuloleya kwa lipamba.”
49 And he said unto them, How is it that ye sought me? wist ye not that I must be about my Father’s business?
Jwalakwe gwabhajangwilenje, “Kwa nndi mmanganya kunoleyanga? Nkakumumanyanga kuti nne ngunapinjikwa nnyumba ja Atati?”
50 And they understood not the saying which he spake unto them.
Ikabheje bhankwetenje bhangagamanyanga malombolelo ga malobhe gabhaalugulilenje gala.
51 And he went down with them, and came to Nazareth, and was subject unto them: but his mother kept all these sayings in her heart.
Bhai gubhalongenenajonji kubhuja ku Nashaleti, gwapundile kwaakundanga. Akwabhe gubhagabhishile muntima gene gowego.
52 And Jesus increased in wisdom and stature, and in favour with God and man.
Na jwalakwe Yeshu gwapundile kukula kwa shanga na lunda, gwapundile kupingwa na a Nnungu na bhandunji.
