Luke 1
1 Inasmuch as many undertook to draw up a narration concerning the accomplished among us things,
Vangi vachi vava liki ku vika i nswanelo lye kande lyezo indava zichi zive zuzilizwa mukati ketu,
2 even as delivered [them] to us those from [the] beginning eyewitnesses and servants having been of the word,
uvu vo vulyo mu vava zituheli mi avo kuzwila ku matangizo ivali impanki ni vahikana ve ñusa.
3 it seemed good also to me also to me having been acquainted from the first with all things carefully with method to you to write, most excellent Theophilus,
Cwale kwangu name ivali kuvoneka kuva hande - kuganisisa hande inzila ye indava yezo zintu kuzwila kuma tangizo - kuñola indava ye nswanelo yako iwe, Theophilus yo sepahala.
4 so that you may know concerning which you were instructed [of the] things the certainty.
Ili ku pangila kuti mwi zive vuniti vwezo zintu zimu va lutwa.
5 There was in the days of Herod king of Judea a priest certain named Zechariah of [the] division of Abijah, and (the *k) wife (of him *N+kO) of the daughters of Aaron and the name of her Elizabeth.
Muma zuva a Heroda, simwine wa Judeya ku vali kwina mu purisita we zina lya Zakariya, ya vali kuzwa kwi inkauhanyo ya Abija. Mwi hyavwe avali kuzwa kuvana vechi kazana va Arunì, Izina lyakwe ivali nji Elizabeta.
6 They were now righteous both (in front of *N+kO) God walking in all the commandments and ordinances of the Lord blameless.
Vonse vo vele vava shieme ha vusu vwa Ireza, ku kuteka zonse intaezo za Simwine.
7 And no there was to them child, inasmuch as was Elizabeth barren and both having advanced in the years of them were.
Kono kana vavena mwana kakuli Elizabeta kana vena luzalo, mi hape vonse chi vava supele ahulu he iyi inako.
8 It came to pass now in the priestly serving of him in the order of the division of him before God,
Mi kuvezi kuchita kuti Zakaria avena mukwina kwa Ireza, kwi chilila ni kupanga iyo mintendo yovu purisita yava hewa mwi nswanelo ye inkauhanyo ya kwe.
9 according to the custom of the priesthood the lot picked [him as] the [one] to burn incense entering into the temple of the Lord;
Kuya ke chizo choku keta kuti njo zuhi mu purisita yese a tende, ava ketwa kwa loto kuti e njile mwi tempele ya Simwine kuti a hise minunkiso.
10 And all the multitude were of the people praying outside at the hour of the incense.
Chonse chichava cha vantu chiva kwete ku lapela hanze heyo inako minunkiso iva hiswa.
11 Appeared then to him an angel of [the] Lord already standing at [the] right of the altar of the incense;
Mi iñiloi lya Simwine livezi kuvoneka ha vusu vwake ni ku zimana ku vulyo vwe alutare ye minunkiso.
12 And was troubled Zechariah having seen [him], and fear fell upon him.
Zakaria ha muvona, ava tilimuki mi lyowa livezi hali.
13 Said then to him the angel; Not do fear Zechariah; because has been heard the prayer of you, and the wife of You Elizabeth will bear a son to you, and you will call the name of him John.
Kono i ñiloi chi lya ti kwali, “sanzi uvi ni lyowa, Zakaria, kakuti intapelo yako iva tekwa. Mwi hyenu Elizabeta mwa pepe mwana o mwisisu. Kamu sumpe izina lyakwe Johani.
14 And he will be joy to you and gladness, and many at the (birth *N+kO) of him will rejoice.
Ka muve ni ntabo ni kusanga, mi vangi vese va sangilile he mpepo yakwe.
15 He will be for great before the Lord, and wine and strong drink certainly not shall he drink, and [of the] Spirit Holy he will be filled even from [the] womb of [the] mother of him.
Kakuli mwave muntu mukando mu menso a Simwine. Sanzi na nywi i waine kapa zinywiwa zi kolete, mi mwe zule ni Luhuho lu Jolola ku zwilila mwi vumo li ba nyina.
16 And many of the sons of Israel he will turn to [the] Lord the God of them,
Mi vantu vangi va Isiraele kava sandulwe kwali Simwine wavo Ireza.
17 And he himself will go forth before Him in [the] spirit and power of Elijah to turn [the] hearts of [the] fathers to [the] children and [the] disobedient to [the] wisdom of [the] righteous, to make ready for [the] Lord a people prepared.
Mwa yende havusu bwe chifateho cha Simwine muluhuho ni ziho za Eliya. Mwa pange vovuti kupangila kuti a sandule inkulo za bashemi ve chikwame ku vana, ku pangila kuti vasa kuteki kava yende mu vutali vwa vantu va lukite - ku litukiseza kwa Simwine vantu valukisezwe iye.
18 And said Zechariah to the angel; By what will I know this? I myself for am an old man, and the wife of mine having advanced in the years of her.
Zakariya cha wamba kwi ñiloi, “Ni wola kuzi ziva vule izi? kakuli chili ni Mukwame yo supele mi ni mwihyetu naye cho supele ahulu.
19 And answering the angel said to him; I myself am Gabriel the [one] standing before God and I was sent to speak to you and to bring glad tidings to you these.
Mi iñiloi chila mwi taba ni ku wamba kwali, “njime Gaburiyele yo zimene mwikwina Ireza.”Nivaka tumwa ku kwiza kuwamba nawe, kukuletela aa makande ma lotu.
20 And behold you will be silent and not able to speak until that day may happen these things, in return for that not you did believe in the words of mine which will be fulfilled in the season of them.
“Cwale uvone, mo tontole, kese uwole kuwamba heisi izuva izi zintu hese nizi pangahale. Ichi nji kuti kana uva zumini manzwi angu, ese e zuzilizwe he nako i swanezi.
21 And were the people expecting Zechariah and they were wondering at the delaying in the temple of him.
Cwale vantu vava lindile Zakariya. Vava komeketwe kakuli avali kwi kele inako ingi mwi tempele.
22 Having come out then not he was able to speak to them; and they recognized that a vision he has seen in the temple. And he himself was making signs to them and was remaining mute.
Kono haka zwa mo, kana vali ku wola ku wamba navo. Chiva bonisisa kuti ava voni i pono havali kwina mwi tempele. Ava zwili ku panga zi supo kuvali na shele u tontwele.
23 And it came to pass when were fulfilled the days of the service of him, he departed to the home of him.
Ku vezi kuva kuti mazuva akwe oku tenda ha amana, cha yenda kwi nzuvo yakwe.
24 After then these days conceived Elizabeth the wife of him and was hiding herself months five saying
Kuzwa aa mazuva, mwi hyavwe Elizabeta ava hi menzi ma hya. Avali zwisi ku vantu ka mwezi i hinda iyanza. Cha wamba,
25 that Thus to me has done (the *k) Lord in [the] days in which He looked upon [me] to take away (the *k) disgrace of mine among men.
“Izi za vani pangili Simwine ha vani loli ni chishemo ku pangila kuti a zwise maswavisisa angu ha vusu bwa bantu.”
26 In now the month sixth was sent the angel Gabriel (by *N+kO) God to a city of Galilee whose name [was] Nazareth
Mu Mwezi we yanza ni kamwina, I ñiloi Gaburiyele liba tumwa ku zwa kwa Ireza kwi tolopo mwa Galileya i sumpwa Nazareta,
27 to a virgin betrothed to a man whose name [was] Joseph of [the] house of David, and the name of the virgin [was] Mary.
kwa kamwale yaba vikilizwe ku mukwame we zina lya Josefa. A vali ku wila ku luzuvo lwa Davida, kamwale izina lyakwe i vali nji Maria.
28 And having come (angel *KO) to her he said; Greetings! you graciously favored; The Lord [is] with you. (blessed [are] you yourself among women. *KO)
Cheza kwali ni kuwamba, “Lumele, iwe yo shemuvitwe ahulu, Simwine wina nawe.”
29 And (having seen [him] *K) at the statement she was troubled (of him *k) and was pondering what kind would be salutation this.
Kono ava lyangene ahulu cha manzwi akwe, ava hupuli kuti iwola kuva mulumelisezo nzi uwu.
30 And said the angel to her; Not do fear Mary, you have found for favor with God.
Iñiloi chila wamba kwali, “Sanzi utiyi, Maria kakuli cho va wani chishemo ni Ireza.”
31 and behold you will conceive in womb and will bring forth a son and you will call the name of Him Jesus.
Mi u vwene, mo pange mwana mwi vumo mi mo pepe muswisu. Mo sumpe izina lyakwe “Jesu.”
32 He will be great and Son of [the] Most High He will be called, and will give to Him [the] Lord God the throne of David of the father of Him,
Mwa ve mukando mi mwa sumpwe kuti Mwana wa Sikwiwulu. Simwine Ireza mwa muhe chipula chavu simwine chika zwilila ku vasikulwe vave sikulwe Davida.
33 and He will reign over the house of Jacob to the ages, and of the kingdom of Him not there will be an end! (aiōn g165)
Mwa vuse inzubo ya Jakovo kuya kwile, mi kese kuve nima mani ku muvuso wakwe. (aiōn g165)
34 Said then Mary to the angel; How will be this since a man not I know?
Maria cha wamba kwi ñiloi, “Kai pangahale vule, kuvona kanini ku kopana ni mukwame?”,
35 And answering the angel said to her; [the] Spirit Holy will come upon you and power of [the] Most High will overshadow you; therefore also the [one] being born Holy [One] will be called [the] Son of God.
Iñiloi chilye tava niku wamba kwali, Luhuho Lujolola ka lwize hako, miziho za Sikwiwulu ka zize hako. Cwale iye uzo yo jolola yenke yese apepwe mwa sumpwe Mwana wa Ireza.
36 And behold Elizabeth the (relative *N+kO) of you also she (has conceived *N+kO) a son in old age of her, and this month [the] sixth is to her who [was] called barren
Mi ubwene, mukwako Elizabeta naye aba pepi mwana o muswisu mu busupali. Uwu mwezi we yanza ni konke wali, uzo yabali kusumpwa kusa pepa.
37 For not will be impossible with (God *N+kO) every declaration.
Kakuli kakwina chese nichi sa woleki ni Ireza.
38 Said then Mary; Behold the handmaid of [the] Lord; Would [that] it happen to me according to the declaration of you. And departed from her the angel.
Maria chati “ubwene, ni muhikana wo mwanakazana wa Simwine.” Kuve vulyo kwangu kakuya che ñusa lyako. Mi iñiloi chilya musiya.
39 Having risen up then Mary in days these she went into the hill country with haste to a town of Judah
Linu Maria ava vuki mwa awo mazuba, mi cha hwelela kuya kwi nkanda ye ziwulu, kwi tolopo mwa Judeya.
40 and she entered into the house of Zechariah and greeted Elizabeth.
Ava yendi mwi nzuvo ya Zakariya mi chaka lumelisa Elizabeta.
41 And it came to pass as heard the greeting of Mary Elizabeth, leaped the baby in the womb of her, and was filled with [the] Spirit Holy Elizabeth
Cwale kuva pangahali kuti Elizabeta ha zuwa mulumelisezo wa Maria, mbumbu mwi vumo lyakwe ava shili, mi Elizabeta ave zulwa Luhuho lu Jolola.
42 and she cried out (in a shout *N+kO) loud and said; Blessed [are] you yourself among women, and blessed [is] the fruit of the womb of you.
Cha koza inzwi lyakwe ni kuwamba kaku huwa “Iwe njo fwiyoletwe mukati kavanakazi, mi ni muselo we vumo lyako ufuyoletwe.”
43 And from where to me this that may come the mother of the Lord of mine to me myself?
Mi chinzi hayi va pangahali kwangu kuti vanyina va Simwine wangu va swanela kwiza kwangu?
44 Behold for as came the voice of the greeting of you into the ears of mine, leaped in exultation the baby in the womb of mine.
Mu vwene, mulumo we ntumeliso zako ha ziza ku matwi angu, mbumbu yo wina mwi vumo lyangu ava shili nche intabo.
45 And blessed [is] the [one] having believed that there will be a fulfillment to the [things] spoken to her from [the] Lord.
Mi uzo u fwiyoletwe yaba zumini kuti ka kuve ni kwizuzilizwa kwezo zintu ziva wambwa kwali ku zwilila kwa Simwine.
46 And said Mary: Magnifies the soul of Mine the Lord,
Maria cha wamba, “Luhuho lwangu lu temba Simwine”,
47 and rejoices the spirit of mine in God the Savior of mine,
mi luhuho lwangu lusanga mwe Ireza mutusi wangu.
48 For He has looked upon the humiliation of the handmaiden of Him. Behold for from henceforth will count blessed me all the generations
Chaba loli ha mazimo avolele hansi a muhikana wakwe wo mwanakazana. Cwale mu vone, ku zwila hahanu onse masika ka a nisumpe kuti ni fwiyoletwe.
49 For has done to me (great [things] *N+kO) the Mighty One; And holy [is] the name of Him;
Kakuli iye yo wina ziho chavani pangili zintu zikando mi izina lyakwe li jolola.
50 And the mercy of Him [is] to generations (and *no) (generations *N+kO) to those fearing Him;
Chishemo chakwe chikalilile ku mahasi ni mahasi kwabo vamu tiya.
51 He has shown strength with [the] arm of Him; He has scattered [the] proud in [the] thought of heart of them;
Chava tondezi ziho zakwe kache yanza: chaba hasani avo vavali kulikumuseza mihupulo ye nkulo zavo.
52 He has brought down rulers from thrones and exalted [the] humble;
Chava soheli hansi vaana vavene simwine vechi kwame ha vuyendisi vwavo. mi chava nyamuni avo ba mazimo mavi.
53 [Those] hungering He has filled with good things and [those] being rich He has sent away empty;
Chave zuzi avo va fwile inzala ni zintu zilotu, kono va humite avava tumini kule niva sena chintu.
54 He has helped Israel [the] servant of Him remembering mercy,
Chava hi intuso kwa Isiraele muhikana wakwe, kupangila ku hupula ku tondeza chishemo
55 even as He spoke to the fathers of us, to Abraham and to the descendants of him to the age. (aiōn g165)
(mwava teli ku veshetu) kwa Aburahama niba mwi chilila kuya uko kusena mamanimani. (aiōn g165)
56 Dwelt then Mary with her (about *N+kO) months three and returned to the home of her.
Maria ave kali ni Elizabeta ka miezi yo tatwe mi cha volela kwi nzuvo yakwe.
57 Now Elizabeth was fulfilled the time to give birth for her and she bore a son.
Hanu inako chi iva sikite ya Elizabeta kuti ahwizumuke muchiche mi ava pepi mwanaswisu.
58 And heard the neighbours and the relatives of her that magnified [the] Lord the mercy of Him with her, and they were rejoicing with her.
Va vambene naye niva kwakwe vava zuwi kuti Simwine ava mutondenzi chishemo chakwe chikando kwali mi vava sangi naye.
59 And it came to pass on day the eighth they came to circumcise the child and were calling it after the name of the father of him Zechariah.
Hanu kuvezi kupangahala he zuva li hinda iyanza ni to tatwe vava kezi njeva muchite mupato muchiche. Ni vava musumpi “Zakariya,” ku zwila izina li vesi.
60 And answering the mother of him said; No, but he will be called John.
Kono va nyina chive tava ni kuwamba “Ne, mwa sumpwe Johani.”
61 And they said to her that No [one] is (among the relatives *N+kO) of you who is called the name by this.
Chiva wamba kwali, “kakwina yenke mukati kava mwenu yo sumpwa keli zina.”
62 They were making signs then to the father of him the what maybe he would wish to be called (him. *N+kO)
Vava pangi zi supo kuvesi kupangila kuti vesi ve zive muvavali kusakila kuti a hewe izina.
63 And having asked for a writing tablet he wrote saying; John is (the *ko) name of him. And they marveled all.
Vesi chiba kumbila chiñolelo mi chiva ñola, “izina lyakwe nji Johani”. Vonse vava komokwa.
64 Was opened then the mouth of him immediately and the tongue of him and he was speaking blessing God.
Haho vulyo kaholo kakwe kave yalulwa mi lulimi lwake luva lukululwa. Ava wambi niku lumba Ireza.
65 And came upon all fear those dwelling around them; and in all the hill country of Judea were being talked about all declarations these,
Lyowa livezi havo vavali kwi kala muma bali avo. Zonse izi zintu ziva twala monse mwi inkanda za ziwulu za Judeya.
66 And laid [them] up all those having heard in the heart of them saying; What then child this will be? And (for *no) [the] hand of [the] Lord was with him.
Mi vonse vava vazuwi vava ziviki mwi nkulo zavo, kuwamba, “cwale uzu muhwile mwave chi?” Kakuli iyanza lya Simwine livena naye.
67 And Zechariah the father of him was filled with [the] Spirit Holy and prophesied saying;
Vesi Zakariya ave zwile ni Luhuho lu Jolola mi cha polofita, kuwamba,
68 Blessed [be] [the] Lord the God of Israel, because He has visited and He has performed redemption [on] the people of Him,
“Simwine a lumbwe, Ireza wa Isiraele, kakuli avezi kwiza ku tusa mi ava kwanisi kuvozekezwa kwa bantu bakwe”
69 and has raised up a horn of salvation for us in (the *k) house of David (the *k) servant of Him,
Chava tuzimikili luziya lwo kuhaza mwi nzuvo yo muhikana wakwe Davida,
70 even as He spoke through [the] mouth of the holy (of the *k) of [old] age prophets of Him; (aiōn g165)
hava wambi cha kaholo zama polofita va jolola bakwe va vena mwi nako ya kale kale. (aiōn g165)
71 salvation from [the] enemies of us and from [the] hand of all those hating us,
Mwa lete vu hazo vuzwilila ku zila zetu mi ni ku mayanza avo batu toyete.
72 to fulfill mercy toward the fathers of us, and to remember [the] covenant holy of Him,
Mwa pange vovuti ku totendeza chishemo chakwe ku veshetu mi ni ku hupula ku jolola kwe ntumelelano yakwe,
73 [the] oath that He swore to Abraham the father of us,
ku lisumina kwava wambi kwa Aburahama ishe etu.
74 to grant us without fear from [the] hand (of the *k) enemies (of us *k) having been saved to serve Him
Ava sepisi kutuha kakuli tuba zwiswa muma yanza e zila zetu, katu mutendele niku sena lyowa,
75 in holiness and righteousness before Him (all the days *N+kO) (of the life *k) of us.
muku jolola ni muku shiama ha vusu bwake onse mazuva etu.
76 And you yourself (now, *no) child, prophet of [the] Most High will be called; you will go for (in front of *N+kO) ([the] face of *ko) [the] Lord to prepare ways of Him,
Eni, nawe, mwana, mo sumpwe mupolofita wa Isiwulu, kakuti moye ha vusu bwe chifateho cha Simwine kuli tukisa inzila zakwe, ku lukisa bantu cha kukeza kwakwe,
77 to give knowledge of salvation to the people of Him in forgiveness of [the] sins of them
kwiza kuha inzivo yo kuhazwa ku vantu vakwe kaku swalelwa kwa zivi zavo.
78 through [the] affections of compassion of God of us in which (will visit *N+kO) us [the] Sunrise from on high,
Ichi kachi pangahale bakeñisa chishemo cha Ireza wetu, bakeñisa ke zuva lizwa kule lyese lize kuku tutusa.
79 to shine upon those in darkness and in [the] shadow of death sitting, to direct the feet of us into [the] way of peace.
Ku venya havo ve kele mwi fifi navo vena mu munzunde we fu. Mwa pange vovuti kutondeza matende etu mwi nzila ye nkozo.
80 And the child was continuing to grow and he was strengthened in spirit and he was in the deserted places until [the] day of appearance of him to Israel.
Hanu mwana ava kuli niku kola mu luhuho, mi avena mumu zuka heisi izuva hali vonekisa kwa Isiraele.
