Lino mulayo mazuba, kwakasika akuti oyo siza Agasitasi wakatamuna mulumbe kulayilila kuti kubalwa kwachitwe kwabantu boonse bapona munyika.

3 All went to enrol themselves, everyone to his own city.
Aboobo muntu woonse wakiinka kudolopo lyakwe kuti akalembesye kubalwa
4 Joseph also went up from Galilee, out of the city of Nazareth, into Judea, to David’s city, which is called Bethlehem, because he was of the house and family of David,
Josefa alakwe wakinka atala kuzwa ku Galile, kuzwa kudolopo lya Nazaleta, kuya kuJudiy, kuya kudolopo lyaDavida, oyo utegwa Betelehema, nkaambo wakali wang'anda a lunyungu lwaDavida.

6 While they were there, the day had come for her to give birth.
Lino kwakasika kuti biyo nibakachiliko oko, ichindi chakasika chakwe kuti atumbuke mwana wakwe.
7 She gave birth to her firstborn son. She wrapped him in bands of cloth and laid him in a feeding trough, because there was no room for them in the inn.
Wakatumbuka mwana mulombe, mwana mutanzi wakwe, alimwi wakamuputila mumalembo akasala malamfu alimwi wamulazika muchata, nkaambo tekwakalikwe busena bulabo munga'nda yabenzu.
8 There were shepherds in the same country staying in the field, and keeping watch by night over their flock.
Kwakaliwo bembeli mubusena obo bakalikukkala mumyuunda, kabalo kulinda butanga bwabo mansiku.
9 Behold, an angel of the Lord stood by them, and the glory of the Lord shone around them, and they were terrified.
Mungelo wamulami wakaboneka kuli mbabo, alimwi abulemu bwaMwami bwaka yubununwa alimbababo, alimwi bakazula akuyowa kupati.
10 The angel said to them, “Don’t be afraid, for behold, I bring you good news of great joy which will be to all the people.
Mpawo mungelo wakamba wakati, “Mutayowinkambo ndamwetela makani mabotu ayo atazo yete kukondwa kupati kubantu boonse.

Echi nchichitondezyo chitakapegwe kuli ndinywe. Mulojana mwana kaputilidwe mulembo likasalaalimwi kalede luchaata.”
13 Suddenly, there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly army praising God and saying,
Mpawo mpawo kwakaliwo antomwe abangelo biingi loko bazwa kujulu, kulumbaizya Leza alimwi kabati,
14 “Glory to God in the highest, on earth peace, good will towards men.”
“Bulemu kuli Leza usumpukide, alimwi ngakube luumuno munyika akati kabantu amwi amoyo ngwaboteledwe.” Amwi malembo achiindi achi Greeki alakupeleta kusiyenesiyene oko kubona kwaamba kwamabala abili akonzya kwaamba zilikumamanino amabala mache a muchala 14, yabili nkili njiyandisigwa. Kubona kwaamba nkoku.” chiyandisisyo chibotu kubantu kana akati kabantu alumwi awoyo we (LEZA) ngwabo teledwe
15 When the angels went away from them into the sky, the shepherds said to one another, “Let’s go to Bethlehem, now, and see this thing that has happened, which the Lord has made known to us.”
Kwakaba kuti awo bangelo kabali bayinka kuzwa alimbabo kuya kujulu, bembeli bakati kuli umwi awumwi, “ngatwiinke lino ku Betelehema alimwi tukabone echi chintu chachitika, echo Mwami nchatuyubnwida.
16 They came with haste and found both Miriam and Joseph, and the baby was lying in the feeding trough.
Bakafwambanina nkuko alumwi bakujana Malia, Josefa, amwana oyo wakalede muchata
17 When they saw it, they publicised widely the saying which was spoken to them about this child.
Kuzwawo abo nibakabamubona, bakazibisya ezyo zimbakali babuzigwa bo atala amwana.
18 All who heard it wondered at the things which were spoken to them by the shepherds.
Boonse abo bakamvwa bakagamba kuli zezyo zyakambwa abembeli.
19 But Miriam kept all these sayings, pondering them in her heart.
Pesi Maliya wakali kuyeya a makani ngakali wamvwa, wakalondolawo mumoyo wakwe.
20 The shepherds returned, glorifying and praising God for all the things that they had heard and seen, just as it was told them.
Bembeli bakabweda kabalumbaizya akutembawula Leza kuli zyoonse ezyo zibakamvwa akubona, mbuli mbubaka mbilwa.
21 When eight days were fulfilled for the circumcision of the child, his name was called Yeshua, which was given by the angel before he was conceived in the womb.
Elyo kwakiinda mazuba masanu aatatu, elyo nakabalulwa, wakuzikwa wategwa Jsu, izina ndyakapedwe amungelo musule katana mintwa mwida
22 When the days of their purification according to the Torah of Moses were fulfilled, they brought him up to Jerusalem to present him to the Lord

Mbuli mbukulembedwe mumulawu wamwami, “woonse mwana mulombe ujula ida ulo bikkwa kumbali kuMwami.”

25 Behold, there was a man in Jerusalem whose name was Simeon. This man was righteous and devout, looking for the consolation of Israel, and the Holy Spirit was on him.
Amubone kwakali mwalumi muJelusalema ula zina litegwa Simiyoni, alumwi oyo mwalumi wakali luleme a kulipeda. Wakali kalangilila kumbilizigwa kwabaIzilayeli, alubo muuya usalala wakala tala anguwe.
26 It had been revealed to him by the Holy Spirit that he should not see death before he had seen the Lord’s Messiah.
Zyakali zyayubununwa kuli nguwe amuya usalala kutitakozobona lufu katanakubona uNanikidwewaMwami.
27 He came in the Spirit into the temple. When the parents brought in the child, Yeshua, that they might do concerning him according to the requirement of the Torah,
Kazulwidwa aMuuya, Simiyoni waka sika muchikombelo. Elyo bazyali bakanjizya mukati mwana Jeso, kulo muchitila mbuli chiyanza chabo chamulawo.
28 then he received him into his arms and blessed God, and said,
Wakamubweza mumaboko aakwe alimwi walumbaizya Leza, alimwi wakati,
29 “Now you are releasing your servant, Master, according to your word, in peace;
“Lino leka mulandawako ayiinde mulumuno, mwami, mbuli ijwi lyako.
30 for my eyes have seen your salvation,
Nkaambo menso angu abona lufutuko lwako,
31 which you have prepared before the face of all peoples;
olo mbwakambilwa abuliwo bwabantu boonse.
32 a light for revelation to the nations, and the glory of your people Israel.”
“Mumuni wachiyubunuzyo kuli bamasi alimwi bulemu kubantu bako izilayeli.”
33 Joseph and his mother were marvelling at the things which were spoken concerning him.
Wisi abanyina, bakagambilwa aatala azintu zyakalikwaambulwa aatala amwana wabo.
34 Simeon blessed them, and said to Miriam, his mother, “Behold, this child is appointed for the falling and the rising of many in Israel, and for a sign which is spoken against.
Simiyoni wakabalongezya mpawo wakati kuli banyina, “Amulange mwana ooyu ulisalidwe kuti kube kuwa akusumpulwa kwabamwi bantu biingi muli Izirayeli achitondeezyo chikakidwe -
35 Yes, a sword will pierce through your own soul, that the thoughts of many hearts may be revealed.”
alimwi ipanga liyoyasa muuya wako - kuchitila kuti myoyo myiingi ikayubununwe.”
36 There was one Hannah, a prophetess, the daughter of Penuel, of the tribe of Asher (she was of a great age, having lived with a husband seven years from her virginity,
Musinsimi mwanakazi uutegwa Ana wakaliwo. Wakali mwana musimbi waFanuwelo kuzwa kumukowa wa Asha. Wakali wapona amulumi wakwe minyaka ili musanu ayibili kuzwa kubusimbi bwakwe.
37 and she had been a widow for about eighty-four years), who didn’t depart from the temple, worshipping with fastings and petitions night and day.
Alimwi wakali mukamufu kwamwinyaka ili makumi musanu aatatu atune. Takwe nakazwide muchikombelo pesi wakali kubelekela kulyimya a kukomba mansiku, asikati.
38 Coming up at that very hour, she gave thanks to the Lord, and spoke of him to all those who were looking for redemption in Jerusalem.
Kuli ndilelyo wola wakaswena afwifwi kuli mbabo almwi wakatalika kupa kulumba kuli Leza, alimwi wakambula alubo aatala amwana kubantu boonse abo bakali kulindila kufutulwa kwaJelusalema.
39 When they had accomplished all things that were according to the Torah of the Lord, they returned into Galilee, to their own city, Nazareth.
Eelyo aabo boonse nibakamanisya nzibakeelede kuchitambuli mulawo wamwami, bakabweeda ku Galilii, kudolopo lyabo lya Nazaleta.
40 The child was growing, and was becoming strong in spirit, being filled with wisdom, and the grace of God was upon him.

41 His parents went every year to Jerusalem at the feast of the Passover.
Bazyali bakwe bakali kwiinka munyaka umwi awumwi ku Jelusalema kupobwe lya kwindilila.
42 When he was twelve years old, they went up to Jerusalem according to the custom of the feast;
Awo nakaba aminyaka kkumi ayibili, bakabweda lubo mbuli chiindi chachiyanza chabo kupobwe.
43 and when they had fulfilled the days, as they were returning, the boy Yeshua stayed behind in Jerusalem. Joseph and his mother didn’t know it,

44 but supposing him to be in the company, they went a day’s journey; and they looked for him amongst their relatives and acquaintances.
Bakayelela kuti wakali akabunga ako nkibakayobwenda aako, mpawo bo bakenda musinzo wazuba limwi. Mpawo bakasanguna kumulangula akati kanzubo zyabo abeenzinyina.
45 When they didn’t find him, they returned to Jerusalem, looking for him.
Eelyo nibakamubula, bakabweda ku Jelusalema alimwi bakatalika kumuyandula nkuko.
46 After three days they found him in the temple, sitting in the middle of the teachers, both listening to them and asking them questions.
Zyakachitika kuti musule lyamazuba aatatu bakasanguna kumuyandula mung'anda ya Leza, kakkede akati kabayisyi, kalokubaswilizya akubabuzya mibuzyo.
47 All who heard him were amazed at his understanding and his answers.
Boonse bakamumvwa bakagamba kukumvwisisisya kwakwe akunsandulo zyakwe
48 When they saw him, they were astonished; and his mother said to him, “Son, why have you treated us this way? Behold, your father and I were anxiously looking for you.”
Elyo nibakamubona bakakankabala. Banyina bakati kulinguwe, “Mwanaangu, nkambonzi nwatujata enzila eyi? Langa, wuso andime twalikukuyandula achakutankalinkana.”
49 He said to them, “Why were you looking for me? Didn’t you know that I must be in my Father’s house?”
Wakati kulimbabo, “Nkambonzi nimwalikundiyandula? Temwazi na kuti ndeelede kuba mungánda yandeende?”
50 They didn’t understand the saying which he spoke to them.
Pesi bo tebakamvwisisya nzyakalikwamba awayo majwi.
51 And he went down with them and came to Nazareth. He was subject to them, and his mother kept all these sayings in her heart.
Elyo wakabweda kumunzi kulimbabo kuNazaleta alimwi wakali kulibombya kuli mbabo. Banyina bakalondola zyoonse ezi mumoyo wabo.
52 And Yeshua increased in wisdom and stature, and in favour with God and men.
Pesi Jeso wakaya kunembo akukomena mubusongo a muchiimo, alimwi wakayungizya kuluzyalo kuli Leza aku bantu
