Luke 1
1 My noble [friend] Theophilus, many people saw the things that [Jesus] did while he was with us, from the time when he started [MTY] [his ministry]. They served God [by teaching people] the message [about the Lord Jesus]. Many of those who heard what they taught wrote down for us accounts of the things that [Jesus did from the time when] he began [his ministry].
Кана бут ко манушэндар ачиле тэ зачинэ дума пала кода, со стердапэ машкар амэн,

3 I myself have studied these accounts carefully. So I decided that it would be good for me also to write for you [(sg)] an accurate account of these matters.
тунчи и манди, пативало Феофило, авиля пэ гындо тэ розлэпэ дэ кодэлэ, со стердапэ англунэ дивэндар, тай екх пала аврэ тэ чинэ тути,
4 I want you to know the truth about what you have been taught {what others have taught you}.

5 When King Herod [the Great ruled] Judea [district], there was a [Jewish] priest named Zechariah. He belonged to the [group of priests called] the Abijah group. He and his wife Elizabeth were both descended from the [first priest of Israel], Aaron.
Дэ кодыя вряма, кала Иродо сля тхагари дэ Иудея, джювда екх рашай, саво вджялас дэ рашаенгири группа, тев сля пхурэдэрэґа Авии. Лэ акхарэнас Захария, тай лэхкиря ромняґа сля Елизавета, манушни Ааронохкэрэ родостар.
6 [God considered that] both of them were righteous, because they constantly completely obeyed everything that God had commanded.
Вонэ лэдуй сле дэвликунэ мануша, и лэнгоро джювимо сля бидошакоро. И вонэ джювдэ пав Дэвлэ Раехкэрэ заповеди и пав дума Дэвлэхкири.
7 But they had no children, because Elizabeth had been unable to bear children. Furthermore, she and her husband were very old.
Лэндэ на сля чяворэн, колэсти со Елизаветатэ на выджялас тэ авэ пхаряґа, и вонэ лэдуй сле дэ пуранэн бэршэн.
8 One day [Zechariah’s] group was doing their work [in the Temple in Jerusalem], and he was serving as a priest in God’s presence.
Екхвар поджиля вряма Захариясти рашаенца тэ лиджя бути англа Дэвлэ.
9 Following their custom, [the other priests] chose him by lot to enter the Lord’s temple and burn incense.
Сар прылито сля рашаендэ, вонэ чутэ жребии, касти тэ джя дэ храмо, тай Захариясти выпэля тэ заджя дэ храмо Раехкоро и тэ ваздэ тхув.
10 While he was burning the incense, many people were outside [in the courtyard], praying.
Дэ кодыя вряма, кала Захария ваздэлас тхув дэ храмо, всавэрэ мануша мангэнаспэ аври, дэ грэда.
11 Then an angel whom God had [sent] appeared to him. The angel was standing at the right side of the place [where the priests burned] incense.
Тунчи сикавдапэ Захариясти Раехкоро ангело, пав чячи риг жэртвенникостар, пэ савэ ваздэнас тхув Дэвлэсти.
12 When Zechariah saw the angel, he was startled and became very afraid.
Кала Захария удыкхля ангело, дэня пэ лэстэ дар, и затинисиля даратар лэхкоро їло.
13 But the angel said to him, “Zechariah, do not be afraid! When you [(sg)] prayed [asking God for a son] (OR, [that God would send the Messiah]), God heard what you prayed. [So] your wife Elizabeth shall bear a son. You must name him John.
Ангело пхэнда лэсти: — На дар, Захария! Шунда Дэвэл мангимо тиро, тай ромни тири, Елизавета, бэнёла тути чявэ, и дэґа лэсти лав Иоанно.
14 He will cause you to be very happy, and many other people will also be happy because he is born.
Тиро їло авэла бахтало баря лошатар, и Иоаннохкэрэ бэнимасти лошавэна бут мануша.
15 God will consider him to be very important. He must never drink wine or any other alcoholic drink, [in order that he will be completely dedicated to God]. He will be controlled by the Holy Spirit {The Holy Spirit will control him} from before he is born.
Авэла вов барэ манушэґа англа Рае: на пэла мол и мортхали тай Свэнтонэ Фаноґа авэла пхэрдо инте тала дакэрэ їлэ.
16 He will [persuade] many people in Israel to turn away [from their sins and please] the Lord their God.
Бутэн манушэн дэ Израили вов рисарэла Раестэ, лэнгэрэ Дэвлэстэ.
17 As [God’s] Spirit enables him [to preach] powerfully as [the prophet] Elijah did, he will precede [the Messiah]. He will cause parents [SYN] to act [peacefully] toward their children [again]. He will cause [many] people who do not obey [God to hear and obey] the wise things that righteous people [tell them]. He will do this in order to help [many] people to be ready when the Lord [comes].”
Вов джяла англа Рае, тай Ильяхкэрэ фано и зор авэна пэ лэстэ, и вов рисарэла дадэнгэрэ їлэ лэнгэрэ чярэндэ, тай накандунэн рисарэла свэнтонэ годятэ, тай лачярэла манушэн, соб тэ авэн вонэ англа Дэвлэ.
18 Then Zechariah said to the angel, “I am very old, and my wife is also so old [that she cannot bear a child. So] (I cannot [believe] that what you [(sg)] said [will happen]!/how can I [believe] that what you [(sg)] said [will happen]?) [RHQ]”
Захария пхэнда ангелости: — Сар манди тэ патя кадэлэсти? Мэ пхуро, тай ромни мури дэ пуранэн бэршэн.
19 Then the angel said to him, “I am [God’s chief angel], Gabriel! [I do what God tells me, because] I constantly am in God’s presence! I was sent {[He] sent me} to tell you [(sg)] something good [that is going to happen to you].
Ангело пхэнда лэсти: — Мэ Гавриило, саво ачел англа Дэвлэ, тай бичалдо тэ дэдумэ туґа и тэ розпхэнэ тути пала када вса.
20 What I have told you will certainly happen at the time [God decides], but you did not believe what I told you. So now [God will make] you will be unable to talk until the day [your son is born]”!
Акэ, ту авэґа лало и ни екх лав на пхэнэґа ды кодэлэ, сар вса стерэлапэ. Кодэлэсти со ту на патинян мурэ лавэсти, пав савэ стерэлапэ вса дэ пэхкири вряма.
21 While [Zechariah and the angel] were talking, the people [in the courtyard] were waiting for Zechariah [to come out]. They wondered, “Why is he staying in the Temple for such a long time?”
А мануша дожутярэнас Захария аври тай на полэнас, сости вов на выджял храмостар скици вряма.
22 When Zechariah came out, he was not able to speak to the people. Because he could not talk, he made motions with his hands [to try to convey what had happened]. Then they realized that he had seen (a vision [from God]/something that [God] showed him) while he was in the Temple.
Кала вов выджиля храмостар, тунчи на сґалювда тэ выпхэнэ ни екх лав, нэ кици сикавэлас вастэнца, сар лало. Тунчи мануша полиле, со Дэвэл сикавда лэсти вари-со дэ храмо.
23 When Zechariah’s time to work [as a priest in the Temple] was finished, he [left Jerusalem and] returned to his home.
Ай кала проджиля лэхкири вряма тэ лиджя бути дэ храмо, Захария рисиля цэрэ.
24 Some time later his wife Elizabeth became pregnant [EUP]. She did not leave their house for five months, [because she knew that people would laugh at her if she told them that she was pregnant].
Проджиля набут вряма, и Елизавета, ромни лэхкири, ачиля пхари тай гаравэласпэ манушэндар панч чён.
25 But she thought, “God has enabled me to become pregnant. He has pitied me and I will no longer be ashamed [because I have no children]!”
Тай пхэнэлас: — Со терда манца Рай? Вздыкхляпэ пэ ман! И слиля ладжявимо мандар англа манушэн!
26 When Elizabeth had been [pregnant] [EUP] [for almost] six months, the angel Gabriel was sent by God {God sent the angel Gabriel} [again].
Пэ шовто чён, сар Елизавета ачиля пхари, ангело Гавриило сля бичалдо Дэвлэстар дэ форо Назарето, саво ачел дэ пхув Галилея,
27 [This time] he went to Nazareth [town] in Galilee [district], to a virgin whose name was Mary. It had been {[Her parents] had} promised that she would marry a man named Joseph, who was descended from [King] David.
чятэ, савя акхарэнас Мария, пала савя дэне лав тэ отдэ ла пала Иосифо Давидохкэрэ родостар.
28 The angel greeted her and said, “(The Lord/God) is with you [(sg)] and you will be greatly blessed {[has decided to] greatly bless you}!”
Ангело авиля латэ тай пхэнда: — Лошав, бахтали! Рай исин туґа!
29 But Mary was very confused [when she heard] that. She wondered what [the angel meant] by these words.
Вой на полиля, со када терэлпэ тай сар тэ полэ лэхкэрэ лава.
30 Then the angel said to her, “Mary, God is very pleased with you [(sg)], so do not be afraid.
Ангело пхэнда лати: — На дар, Мария! Дэвэл дэня тути бахт бари!
31 You will become pregnant and bear a son, and you must name him Jesus.
Акэ, ту авэґа пхари тай бэнёґа Чяворэ, и дэґа Лэсти Лав Исусо.
32 He will become great. He will be called {[People will] call him} (the Son of God/the man who is also God). God, the Lord, will make him a king [MTY] as his ancestor [King] David was.
Вов авэла баро, тай Лэ авэна тэ акхарэ Барэдэрэхкоро Чяво. Дэвэл Рай дэла Лэсти троно, пэ савэ бэшэлас тхагари Давидо, дад Лэхкоро.
33 He will be the King of [the] Jews, the descendants [MTY] of [your ancestor] Jacob, forever. He will rule as king forever!” (aiōn g165)
И авэла Вов Тхагари дэ родо Иаковохкоро, и Тхагаримо Лэхкоро никала на пэрэачела. (aiōn g165)
34 Then Mary said to the angel, “I am a virgin, so how can I [have a baby]?”
Мария пхучля ангелостар: — Сар откада вса авэла, кала мэ чей и муршэ на джянав?
35 The angel replied, “The Holy Spirit will come to you; the power of God [MTY/EUP] will overshadow you [and enable you to become pregnant]. So the child [you will] bear will be completely set apart {give himself completely} to obey God, and he will be called {[people] will say that he is} (the Son of God/the man who is also God).
Ангело пхэнда лати: — Свэнто Фано сджяла упрал пэ тут, и зор Барэдэрэхкири ушарэла тут. И кодэлэсти Свэнто, Саво бэнёлапэ, акхарэлапэ Дэвлэхкэрэ Чявэґа.
36 [I also need to tell you something else]. Your cousin Elizabeth is very old, and it was thought {[people] said} that she could not bear any children. But she has been [pregnant] [EUP] [for almost] six months, and will bear a son!
Акэ и Елизавета, тирэ родостар, пэ савя пхэнэнас «бичяворэнгири», шовто чён, сар ачиля пхари дэ пуранэн бэршэн.
37 [You should not be surprised at that], because God can do everything!”
Акэ, важ Дэвлэ нэнай нисо, соб Вов тэ на стерэл!
38 Then Mary said, “All right, I want to serve (the Lord/God), so may what you [(sg)] have said about me come true!” Then the angel left her.
Тунчи Мария пхэнда: — Дэвэл — муро Хулай, мэк авэла вса, сар ту пхэндан. Тай отджиля латар ангело.
39 Very soon after that, Mary got ready and went quickly to a town in the highlands of Judea [district] where Zechariah lived.
Проджиля набут вряма, и Мария стидэняпэ тай сигэдэр джиля дэ форо Иудеенгоро, саво ачелас машкар плаен.
40 She entered his house and greeted [his wife] Elizabeth.
Тай авиля дэ цэр Захариястэ и наисардапэ Елизаветаґа.
41 As soon as Elizabeth heard Mary greet her, the baby moved inside [Elizabeth’s] womb. The Holy Spirit took complete control of Elizabeth,
Кала Елизавета шунда лакэрэ лава, подхукля чяворо тала лакэрэ їлэ, и пэ Елизавета сджиля Свэнто Фано.
42 and she said loudly [to Mary], “[God] has blessed you [more than] he has blessed [any other] woman, and [he has] blessed the child you will bear!
Вой ваздэня пэхкоро ґласо тай пхэнда: — Бахтали ту машкар джювлен, тай бахтало Чяворо, Савэ ту пхиравэх тала тирэ їлэ!
43 (I am not worthy that [God would allow you] to visit me!/Why is [God allowing you] to visit me?) [RHQ] You will be the mother of my Lord!
Пала со манди кадыя бахт, со авиля мандэ Мурэ Раехкири дэй?
44 [I realize this because] as soon as I heard you greet me, the baby inside my womb moved because he was so happy [that you had come].
Кала ашундом тиро ґласо, тунчи ваздэняпэ чяворо дэ мурэ їлэ лошаґа.
45 [God] is pleased with you [because] you believed that what (the Lord/God) told you would come true.”
Бахтали ту, колэсти со патинян и Раехкэрэ лавэсти и со авэла кади, сар Вов пхэнда!
46 Then Mary [praised God by] saying/singing: “, how I [SYN] praise (the Lord/God)!
И пхэнда Мария: — Ашарэл Рае води муро,
47 I am happy because God is the one who saves me.
и лошавэл фано муро англа Дэвлэ мурэ, Саво фирисарэл ман.
48 I was only his lowly servant girl, but he did not forget me. So from now on, everyone will say that God was pleased with me,
Вов удыкхля ман, бутярня, сави нисо на ачел, и акана всавэрэ родуря пхэнэна, со бахтали мэ,
49 because they will hear about the things that God [MTY], the mighty one, has done for me. He [MTY] is awesome!
кала шунэна, со Дэвэл Зорало стерда важ ман кадэва баро рындо. И свэнто исин Лав Лэхкоро!
50 He acts mercifully toward all those who respect him.
И родонэндэ, савэ полэн и трашан Лэстар, Вов обрисявэл ковло їло Пэхкоро!
51 He shows people that he [MTY] is very powerful. He scatters those who think proudly.
Барэ рындуря стерда Вов зоралэ вастэґа, розпхагля дрома пхутимаренди.
52 He does not let mighty kings rule [MTY] any more, but he honors people who are oppressed (OR, humble).
Вов счута раен лэнгэрэ трононэндар и ваздэня упрэ чёрэн,
53 He gives good things to eat to those who are hungry, but he sends away the rich people without giving them anything.
бокхалэн чялярда лачимаґа, ай барвалэн мукля шушэ вастэнца.
54 And now he has remembered what he promised. So he has helped me and all the other people of [MTY] Israel who serve him.
Авиля Лэсти пэ гындо тэ подрицарэ Израиле, бутярнэ Лэхкэрэ,
55 He promised to Abraham and all our other ancestors who descended from him that he would act mercifully toward them forever.” (aiōn g165)
сар дэня Вов лав амарэ дадэнди, Авраамости тай лэхкэрэ родости пэ всавири вряма. (aiōn g165)
56 Mary stayed with Elizabeth for about three months. Then she returned to her home.
Мария просля латэ пашэ трин чён тай рисиля цэрэ.
57 When it was time for Elizabeth to give birth to her child, she bore a son.
Тай авиля вряма Елизаветати тэ бэнё, и вой бэня чяворэ.
58 Her neighbors and relatives heard how (the Lord/God) had greatly blessed her [by enabling her to bear a child], so they were happy along with [Elizabeth].
Пашунэ мануша и родо лакоро шундэ, сар Рай дэня лати баро лачимо Пэхкоро, тай лошавэнас їтханэ лаґа.
59 Seven days later they gathered together for the [ceremony for] circumcising the baby [to show that he belonged to God]. They wanted to give the baby the same name as his father, Zechariah.
Пэ охто диво авиле вонэ тэ обчинэ чяворэ, и камле тэ дэ лэсти лав Захария, кади, сар акхарэнас лэхкэрэ дадэ.
60 But his mother said, “No, [his name will not be Zechariah]. His name will be John!”
Нэ Елизавета, лэхкири дэй, пхэнда: — Нат, дэн лэсти лав Иоанно.
61 [So] they said to her, “[John] is not the name of any of your [(dl)] relatives, [so you(dl) should not give him that name]!”
Пхэндэ лати: — Ника дэ тумаро родо кади на акхарэн!
62 Then they made motions with their hands to Zechariah, [for him] to indicate what name [he] wanted to be given {to give} to his son.
Тай пхученас вастэнца лэхкэрэ дадэстэ, Захариястэ, камле тэ уджянэ лэстэ, сар вов камэл тэ акхарэ чяворэ.
63 [So] he signaled that they [should give him] a tablet [to write on. When they gave him one], he wrote [on it], “His name is John.” All those [who were there] were surprised!
Захария помангля сандёры важ лилэн тай чинда упрал: «Лэсти лав Иоанно». Всавэрэ прылиле када пала дыво.
64 Immediately Zechariah was able to speak again [MTY], and he praised God.
Тунчи отмукля лэсти муй и чиб, и вов ачиля тэ дэдумэ тай тэ ваздэ слава Дэвлэсти.
65 All their neighbors were amazed/awestruck! They told other people who lived all over the highlands of Judea about what had happened.
И всавэрэн пашунэн облиля бари дар, и када вса розджиляпэ пав всавири Иудея плаенгири.
66 Everyone who heard about it kept thinking about it. They were saying, “We wonder what will this child do [for God when] he [grows up] [RHQ]!” They wondered that because [from what had happened they were sure that] God would be helping that child [SYN] [in a powerful way].
Мануша, савэ шундэ вса кода, пхученас еджинэ пэстэ: — Каґа дурэдэр авэла кадэва чяворо? И Раехкоро васт сля пэ чяворэ.
67 [After] Zechariah’s [son was born], Zechariah was completely directed by the Holy Spirit {the Holy Spirit completely directed Zechariah} as he spoke these words that came from God:
Ай Свэнто Фано сджиля пэ Захария, Иоаннохкэрэ дадэ, и вов ачиля тэ дэдумэ Дэвлэстар:
68 “Praise the Lord, the God whom we(inc) people of Israel worship, because he has come to set us, his people, free from our enemies.
— Тэлював англа Тут, Бахтало Рай, Дэвэл Израилехкоро! Ту авилян Тирэ манушэндэ тай фирисардан лэн.
69 He is sending us someone who will powerfully [MTY] save us, someone who is descended from [MTY] King David, who served God well.
Ваздэня важ амэн Фирисаре цэрэстар, савэстар исин Тиро бутярно Давидо,

71 He will rescue us from our enemies, and he will save us from the power of all those who hate us.
со фирисарэґа амэн врыжымашэндар, кодэлэндар, савэ вурыцён амэндар.
72 He will do this because he has not forgotten what he promised our ancestors; he made an agreement that he would act mercifully to us, their descendants.
Вов сикавда ковло їло Пэхкоро амарэ дадэнди тай на бистарда, со спхангля лэнца Еджино Пэ Свэнтонэ заветоґа.
73 That is what he strongly promised our ancestor Abraham that he would do.
Солаханя Вов Авраамости, амарэ дадэсти,
74 God told him that we would be rescued {he would rescue us} from the power of our enemies, that he would enable us to serve him without being afraid,
со фирисарэла амэн врыжымашэндар, соб амэ битрашакаро тэ терах свэнто бути англа Лэстэ,
75 that he would cause us to be completely dedicated to him, and enable us to live righteously all of our lives.”
соб тэ авэл амаро джювимо свэнто тай чячюно англа Лэхкоро Муй всавэрэ бэрша амарэ.
76 [Then Zechariah said this to] his little son: “My child, you will be called {people will say that you are} a prophet whom God [MTY/EUP] has sent; you will begin your work before (the Lord/Messiah) comes; you will prepare people so that they will be ready for him. (OR, you will begin your work before the Messiah comes).
И тут, чяворо, акхарэна Барэдэрэхкоро англунари, колэсти со ту джяґа англа Рае и лачярэґа Лэсти дром,
77 You will tell God’s people how he will forgive them and save them from being punished for their sins.
и тховэґа Лэхкэрэ манушэнди дэ гындо, со Дэвэл злэл лэндар бэзимо и фирисарэла лэнгэрэ водя.
78 Our God will do that because he is very kind to us. Just like a new day begins when the sun rises [MET], God will do that new thing for us when the Messiah comes to us from heaven.
Пэхкэрэ ковлэ їлэстар Дэвэл бичалэла амэнди Кхам, Саво ваздэлапэ дэнзор,
79 People who do not know God [MET] are like those who sit in the darkness. They are afraid [MTY] that they will soon die. But when the Messiah tells us God’s message, it will be like causing such people to see a bright light. He will guide us [SYN] so that we will be living peacefully.”
и манушэнди, савэ мэрэн дэ калима, дэла одуд и сикавэла амэнди дром, саво анэл пачя.
80 [Later], Zechariah’s son grew up and became spiritually strong. Then he lived in a desolate region until he began to preach to the Israeli people.
Ай чяворо барёлас, тай фано лэхкоро ачелас зорало, и сля вов дэ шуки пхув ды кодыя вряма, кала трэбуни лэсти сля тэ сикавэпэ манушэнди дэ Израили.
