< Lukas 1 >

1 Ama Teofilus nene fee hadꞌat. Sodꞌa-moleꞌ. Atahori hetar sobꞌa suraꞌ dudꞌuit soꞌal dalaꞌ mana dadꞌiꞌ sia hai taladꞌa mara ena. Ara suraꞌ dudꞌuit ra, rendiꞌ dudꞌuit mana nenedꞌuiꞌ neu-nema mia hai, nisiꞌ hai ma sia hai eniꞌ a dalahulun, fo hai bubꞌuluꞌ mia Lamatuaꞌ Yesus atahori mana tungga nara, ma mia atahori feaꞌ mana rita no mata nara. Basa dudꞌuit naa ra, ndaa no Lamatualain hehelu-fufulin eniꞌ fai dalahulun. Dadꞌi au paresaꞌ lutuꞌ-leloꞌ basa dalaꞌ naa ra, eniꞌ a mia teteri-netehun. Dei de au uꞌetuꞌ fo suraꞌ basa naa ra no malole tungga tutute nara. No taꞌo naa, amaꞌ bisa bubꞌuluꞌ no matetuꞌ saa mana dadꞌiꞌ ena.
Forasmuch as many have taken in hand to draw up a narrative concerning those matters which have been fulfilled among us,
2
even as they delivered them unto us, who from the beginning were eyewitnesses and ministers of the word,
3
it seemed good to me also, having traced the course of all things accurately from the first, to write unto thee in order, most excellent Theophilus;
4 Ma amaꞌ o mumuhere, saa fo atahori ra dꞌuiꞌ naa, nda dudꞌui peko-lelekoꞌ sa. Basa naa ra, tebꞌe-tebꞌeꞌ dadꞌi!
that thou mightest know the certainty concerning the things wherein thou wast instructed.
5 Dudꞌuit ia teteri-netehun taꞌo ia: leleeꞌ mane Herodes toꞌu parendaꞌ sia propinsi Yudea, hambu atahori sa, naran Sakaria. Eni, malangga agama Yahudi esa. Boe ma eni o, esa mia baꞌi Abia nononggoꞌ malangga agaman. Sakaria saon, naran Elisabet. Eni o tititi-nonosiꞌ mia malangga agama ra, huu eni ia, baꞌi Musa aꞌan Harun tititi-nonosin.
There was in the days of Herod, king of Judæa, a certain priest named Zacharias, of the course of Abijah: and he had a wife of the daughters of Aaron, and her name was Elisabeth.
6 Ruꞌa se rasodꞌa ndoos tungga basa Lamatualain parendan ma hohoro-lalane nara. Atahori fee hadꞌat neu se boe.
And they were both righteous before God, walking in all the commandments and ordinances of the Lord blameless.
7 Ruꞌa se lasiꞌ ena, te nda ma anaꞌ sa, huu Elisabet mamana anan maꞌatemeꞌ.
And they had no child, because that Elisabeth was barren, and they both were [now] well stricken in years.
8 Lao esa, Sakaria no nononggon Abia hambu babꞌanggi tao ues sia Ume Hule-oꞌe Huuꞌ sia kota Yerusalem.
Now it came to pass, while he executed the priest’s office before God in the order of his course,
9 Tungga sira hadꞌat na, malangga agama naa ra lea lot, fo rahine seka mana hambu babꞌanggiꞌ nisiꞌ kama Meumareꞌ sia Ume Hule-oꞌe Huuꞌ a. Sia naa, atahori naa musi dedꞌe hau maꞌameniꞌ sia Lamatualain matan. Faiꞌ naa, lot tudꞌa neu Sakaria.
according to the custom of the priest’s office, his lot was to enter into the temple of the Lord and burn incense.
10 Boe ma ana rala neu. Leleꞌ ana hotu hau maꞌameniꞌ mia kama rala, atahori hetar hule-oꞌe sia ume sodꞌan.
And the whole multitude of the people were praying without at the hour of incense.
11 Aiboiꞌ ma, Lamatualain aten esa mia sorga, nambariiꞌ sia mamana dedꞌe hau maꞌameniꞌ bobꞌoa onan.
And there appeared unto him an angel of the Lord standing on the right side of the altar of incense.
12 Nita taꞌo naa, ma Sakaria namatau nae mate, de nda nitaꞌ nae tao saa sa boe.
And Zacharias was troubled when he saw [him], and fear fell upon him.
13 Te ate mana mia sorga olaꞌ nae, “Sakaria! Afiꞌ mumutau e! Huu Lamatualain rena hule-oꞌem ena. Dadꞌi dei fo saom bꞌonggi fee nggo ana touꞌ sa. Musi babꞌae naran, Yohanis.
But the angel said unto him, Fear not, Zacharias: because thy supplication is heard, and thy wife Elisabeth shall bear thee a son, and thou shalt call his name John.
14 Dei fo atahori hetar ramahoꞌo ro nggi, huu hei hambu anaꞌ ena. Dei fo anaꞌ ia tao ralam namahoꞌo.
And thou shalt have joy and gladness; and many shall rejoice at his birth.
15 Lamatuaꞌ Dula-dale Meumaren koasan naꞌabꞌue no e, eniꞌ a maman nairu e. Ana musi naluli basa nininuꞌ mana nendi mamafut. Leleꞌ naꞌamoko dei fo Lamatualain, pake e dadꞌi atahori moko-monaen.
For he shall be great in the sight of the Lord, and he shall drink no wine nor strong drink; and he shall be filled with the Holy Spirit, even from his mother’s womb.
16 Dei fo ana kokoe atahori Israꞌel hetar fo tungga baliꞌ sira Lamatuan, naeni Lamatualain.
And many of the children of Israel shall he turn unto the Lord their God.
17 Ndolu-hadꞌan ma koasan onaꞌ baꞌi Elia, naeni Lamatuaꞌ mana ola-olan eniꞌ a mia dalahulun. Ana nema naꞌahuluꞌ hita Lamatuan. Ana tao ama-inaꞌ ra rala nara sue baliꞌ ana nara. Ma atahori mana lao hela Lamatuaꞌ ena o, ana ubꞌa rala nara fo ara tungga baliꞌ Lamatuaꞌ hihii-nanaun. No taꞌo naa, ana tao atahori ra sadꞌia rala nara fo simbo Lamatuaꞌ neneman.”
And he shall go before his face in the spirit and power of Elijah, to turn the hearts of the fathers to the children, and the disobedient [to walk] in the wisdom of the just; to make ready for the Lord a people prepared [for him].
18 Te Sakaria natane baliꞌ ate a nae, “Bisa taꞌo naa, do?! Au ꞌo sao ngga lasiꞌ onaꞌ ia ena! Taꞌo bee fo au uhine basa ia ra bisa dadꞌi?”
And Zacharias said unto the angel, Whereby shall I know this? for I am an old man, and my wife well stricken in years.
19 Boe ma, ate a nataa nae, “Taꞌo ia! Au Gabriel, Lamatulain dedenun. Ana mana denu au uma, ufadꞌe hara-lii malolen neu nggo.
And the angel answering said unto him, I am Gabriel, that stand in the presence of God; and I was sent to speak unto thee, and to bring thee these good tidings.
20 Te nda nau mumuhere oꞌola ngga sa. Dadꞌi tatandaꞌ fo moꞌeꞌ a taꞌo ia! Maa ma naꞌaꞌeꞌeku ma nda olaꞌ mala sa eniꞌ a mia oras ia, losa hambu mala anaꞌ naa. Dei fo mete neuꞌ ena. Saa fo au olaꞌ ia dei fo dadꞌi, nandaa no fain.”
And behold, thou shalt be silent and not able to speak, until the day that these things shall come to pass, because thou believedst not my words, which shall be fulfilled in their season.
21 Atahori hetar mana hule-oꞌe sia deaꞌ ra, duꞌa-duꞌaꞌ a, huu Sakaria nda nau kalua-kalua sa.
And the people were waiting for Zacharias, and they marvelled while he tarried in the temple.
22 Leleꞌ ana dea nema, ana nda olaꞌ nala sa ena. Boe ma ana lalaes mbali se, ma rahine boe rae, Lamatuaꞌ natudꞌu e manadadꞌi manaseliꞌ sa mia Kama Meumare Manaseliꞌ a.
And when he came out, he could not speak unto them: and they perceived that he had seen a vision in the temple: and he continued making signs unto them, and remained dumb.
23 Ue-taos nara basa, boe ma Sakaria baliꞌ ume neu.
And it came to pass, when the days of his ministration were fulfilled, he departed unto his house.
24 Nda dooꞌ sa ma Elisabet nairu. Boe ma ana kama aon siaꞌ a ume losa fula lima. Ana olaꞌ nae, “Koa-kio Lamatuaꞌ! Mateꞌen ma Lamatuaꞌ natudꞌu rala malolen neu au ena. Mete ma au hambu tititi-nonosiꞌ ena, atahori nda raꞌamamaeꞌ au sa ena.”
And after these days Elisabeth his wife conceived; and she hid herself five months, saying,
Thus hath the Lord done unto me in the days wherein he looked upon [me], to take away my reproach among men.
26 Leleꞌ Elisabet ambun fula nee, boe ma Lamatualain haitua aten mia sorga, nisiꞌ kamboꞌ sa sia profinsi Galilea, naran Nasaret. Ate a naran, Gabriel.
Now in the sixth month the angel Gabriel was sent from God unto a city of Galilee, named Nazareth,
27 Sia Nasaret hambu ana fetoꞌ sa, naran Maria. Maria tunangan no touꞌ sa, naran Yusuf. Yusuf naa, mane Daud tititi-nonosin. Gabriel neu nandaa no Maria.
to a virgin betrothed to a man whose name was Joseph, of the house of David; and the virgin’s name was Mary.
28 Ana natudꞌu aon neu ana fetoꞌ a, ma nae, “Sodꞌa-moleꞌ, ana feto! Lamatualain pili nala nggo, fo nae tao dꞌala maloleꞌ sa fee nggo. Lamatualain naꞌabꞌue no nggo, Maria.”
And he came in unto her, and said, Hail, thou that art highly favored, the Lord [is] with thee.
29 Maria rena nala naa, ma ana tintindindi no ate a oꞌolan. Ana nda nahine naa sosoan saa sa boe.
But she was greatly troubled at the saying, and cast in her mind what manner of salutation this might be.
30 Boe ma ate a ola seluꞌ nae, “Maria! Afiꞌ mumutau. Te Lamatualain sangga nae natudꞌu rala malolen neu nggo.
And the angel said unto her, Fear not, Mary: for thou hast found favor with God.
31 Nda doo sa te, muiru ena, Ma, dei fo bꞌonggi ana touꞌ sa. Ho musi babae naran, Yesus.
And behold, thou shalt conceive in thy womb, and bring forth a son, and shalt call his name JESUS.
32 Dei fo Ana dadꞌi Atahori monaeꞌ. Dei fo Lamatuaꞌ noꞌe E nae, ‘Eni, Au Ana heheli ngga.’ Naeni, Lamatualain manaseliꞌ a anan. Dei fo Lamatualain soꞌu E fo toꞌu parendaꞌ, onaꞌ baꞌin, mane Daud.
He shall be great, and shall be called the Son of the Most High: and the Lord God shall give unto him the throne of his father David:
33 Dei fo Eni mana toꞌu parendaꞌ nakandooꞌ a neu atahori Israꞌel ra. Huu parendan nda mana basaꞌ sa. (aiōn g165)
and he shall reign over the house of Jacob for ever; and of his kingdom there shall be no end. (aiōn g165)
34 Te Maria natane Gabriel nae, “Au, nda feꞌe sunggu o tou esa sa boe! Taꞌo bee fo au bisa uiru?”
And Mary said unto the angel, How shall this be, seeing I know not a man?
35 Ma Gabriel nataa nae, “Taꞌo ia! Dei fo Lamatuaꞌ Dula-dale Meumaren nema nisiꞌ nggo. Ma Lamatualain Manaseliꞌ a koasan mboti nala nggo. No taꞌo naa, Anaꞌ, dei fo bꞌonggi malaꞌ naa, tebꞌe-tebꞌe meumareꞌ. Huu Eni, Lamatualain Anan.
And the angel answered and said unto her, The Holy Spirit shall come upon thee, and the power of the Most High shall overshadow thee: wherefore also the holy thing which is begotten shall be called the Son of God.
36 Afiꞌ titindindi! Te bobꞌonggi ma esa, naran Elisabet, nairu ena boe. Atahori rae ana nda bisa bꞌonggiꞌ sa, huu namalasi ena. Tao-tao te ia na ambun fula nee ena.
And behold, Elisabeth thy kinswoman, she also hath conceived a son in her old age; and this is the sixth month with her that was called barren.
37 Huu, soaꞌ neu Lamatualain, basaꞌ e bisa dadꞌi!”
For no word from God shall be void of power.
38 Boe ma Maria nataa nae, “Malole. Au ia Lamatualain aten. Hela neu fo basa e dadꞌi tungga oꞌolam naa. Au sadꞌia tungga a Lamatuaꞌ hihii-nanaun.” Basa ma ate mana mia sorga lao hela e.
And Mary said, Behold, the handmaid of the Lord; be it unto me according to thy word. And the angel departed from her.
39 Seli fai hira ma, Maria lao halalai mia Nasaret nisiꞌ Zakaria kambon propinsi Yudea mamana mbuku leteꞌ. Losa naa ma, ana masoꞌ tuteꞌ nisiꞌ Sakaria umen rala. Ma ana fee hara sodꞌa-moleꞌ neu Elisabet.
And Mary arose in these days and went into the hill country with haste, into a city of Judah;
and entered into the house of Zacharias and saluted Elisabeth.
41 Leleꞌ Elisabet rena Maria haran ma, anadikiꞌ a natingga-nasamba sia Elisabet ambun rala. Ma Lamatuaꞌ Dula-dale Meumaren masoꞌ nisiꞌ Elisabet boe.
And it came to pass, when Elisabeth heard the salutation of Mary, the babe leaped in her womb; and Elisabeth was filled with the Holy Spirit;
42 Boe ma ana olaꞌ nae, “Maria! Dei fo atahori ra soꞌu rananaru naram lenaꞌ basa inaꞌ sia raefafoꞌ ia! Ma atahori o soꞌu rananaru Anaꞌ mana sia ambum rala boe!
and she lifted up her voice with a loud cry, and said, Blessed [art] thou among women, and blessed [is] the fruit of thy womb.
43 Au o nene nenanaru boe, huu Lamatua ngga maman nema nandaa no au.
And whence is this to me, that the mother of my Lord should come unto me?
44 Leleꞌ rala uma fee hara sodꞌa-moleꞌ neu au, ma ana ngga natingga-nasamba tuteꞌ sia ambu ngga huu namahoꞌo.
For behold, when the voice of thy salutation came into mine ears, the babe leaped in my womb for joy.
45 Lamatualain natudꞌu rala malolen neu nggo, huu mumuhere mae, Ana nae tao tungga hehelu-fufulin.”
And blessed [is] she that believed; for there shall be a fulfilment of the things which have been spoken to her from the Lord.
46 Maria olaꞌ nae, “Mia au rala ngga, au soꞌu unanaru Lamatuaꞌ
And Mary said, My soul doth magnify the Lord,
47 Au rala ngga namahoꞌo, huu Lamatualain fee au masodꞌaꞌ!
And my spirit hath rejoiced in God my Saviour.
48 Ana tao mataꞌ neu au, atahori dedenun nda mana naꞌena sosoa-ndandaaꞌ ia sa. Mia leleꞌ ia basa atahori rae au ia, ina uanale maloleꞌ,
For he hath looked upon the low estate of his handmaid: For behold, from henceforth all generations shall call me blessed.
49 huu Lamatuaꞌ tao dala manaseliꞌ ra fee au. Eni, mana koasa manaseliꞌ no Meumaren manaseliꞌ.
For he that is mighty hath done to me great things; And holy is his name.
50 Lamatualain akaꞌ natudꞌu rala susuen neu basa atahori mana fee hadꞌa-hormat ma beꞌutee neu E. mia tititi nonosiꞌ sa losa tititi nonosiꞌ laen.
And his mercy is unto generations and generations On them that fear him.
51 Ana pake koasan, fo tao atahori mana koaoꞌ ra ramue-raanggiꞌ.
He hath showed strength with his arm; He hath scattered the proud in the imagination of their heart.
52 Ana naꞌatutudꞌaꞌ atahori mana toꞌu koasa ra, huu sira rananaru ao nara. Te Ana soꞌu nananaru atahori mana maloe-madꞌae rala nara.
He hath put down princes from [their] thrones, And hath exalted them of low degree.
53 Ana nahao atahori mana ndoeꞌ ra losa raꞌabeta, te Ana oi hendi atahori mamasuꞌi ra lao ro lima rouꞌ
The hungry he hath filled with good things; And the rich he hath sent empty away.
54 Ana tulu-fali atahori Israꞌel nara, ma akaꞌ natudꞌu rala susuen neu se.
He hath given help to Israel his servant, That he might remember mercy
55 Dalahulun, Ana tao hehelu-fufuliꞌ no bei-baꞌi tara, naeni, baꞌi Abraham no basa tititi-nonosi nara. Losa faiꞌ ia hehelu-fufuliꞌ naa feꞌe nenepaꞌaꞌ nakandoo.” (aiōn g165)
(As he spake unto our fathers) Toward Abraham and his seed for ever. (aiōn g165)
56 Basa de, Maria leo no Elisabet losa fula telu. Dei de ana baliꞌ nisiꞌ umen sia Nasaret.
And Mary abode with her about three months, and returned unto her house.
57 Leleꞌ fain losa ma, Elisabet bꞌonggi ana touꞌ sa.
Now Elisabeth’s time was fulfilled that she should be delivered; and she brought forth a son.
58 Haraꞌ naa nenedꞌui-bꞌenggaꞌ losa bobꞌonggin ma basa kambo isiꞌ ra oi, Lamatualain natudꞌu rala malolen ma fee Elisabet anaꞌ sa. Ma basa se o ramahoꞌo boe.
And her neighbors and her kinsfolk heard that the Lord had magnified his mercy towards her; and they rejoiced with her.
59 Anaꞌ naa fai falu ma, ara sunat e tungga atahori Yahudi ra adꞌat na. Ara rae babꞌae naran, Sakaria, tungga aman naran.
And it came to pass on the eighth day, that they came to circumcise the child; and they would have called him Zacharias, after the name of his father.
60 Te inan nda nau sa nae, “Nda taꞌo naa sa! Naran, musi Yohanis!”
And his mother answered and said, Not so; but he shall be called John.
61 Te rataa rae, “Saa de nauꞌ a naran Yohanis? Sia hei bobꞌonggi mara nda hambu esa naran onaꞌ naa sa boe!”
And they said unto her, There is none of thy kindred that is called by this name.
62 Boe ma ara laes Sakaria, fo rae rahine nae babꞌae anaꞌ a naran neu se.
And they made signs to his father, what he would have him called.
63 Sakaria laes noꞌe fatu lei. Ara fee, de ana suraꞌ nae, “Naran Yohanis!” Boe ma basa atahori ra titindindii.
And he asked for a writing tablet, and wrote, saying, His name is John. And they marvelled all.
64 Aiboiꞌ ma, Sakaria maa maꞌaꞌeꞌekun, bangganaꞌu neuꞌ ena. Boe ma ana soꞌu koa-kio Lamatualain.
And his mouth was opened immediately, and his tongue [loosed], and he spake, blessing God.
65 Basa atahori mana leo deka naa ra, ramatau ma heran. Boe ma dudꞌuit naa neneduiꞌ, losa basa atahori sia lete-leteꞌ propinsi Yudea ra o bubꞌuluꞌ boe.
And fear came on all that dwelt round about them: and all these sayings were noised abroad throughout all the hill country of Judæa.
66 Atahori mana rena dudꞌuit naa, dꞌuꞌa-dꞌuꞌa rae, “Lamatualain koasan memaꞌ no anaꞌ ia, De naꞌamoko nema na, ana dadꞌi atahori onaꞌ beek o?”
And all that heard them laid them up in their heart, saying, What then shall this child be? For the hand of the Lord was with him.
67 Basa ma, Lamatuaꞌ Dula-dale Meumaren masoꞌ nisiꞌ Sakaria. Naa de ana olaꞌ nae,
And his father Zacharias was filled with the Holy Spirit, and prophesied, saying,
68 Koa-kio Lamatuaꞌ, atahori Israꞌel Lamatuan! Huu nema de tefa-soi nala atahori nara ena, naa fo ara afiꞌ onaꞌ ate fai.
Blessed [be] the Lord, the God of Israel; For he hath visited and wrought redemption for his people,
69 Lamatuaꞌ soꞌu nala Atahori sa koasan manaseliꞌ, fo ana fee masodꞌaꞌ neu nggita. Eni ia, laoꞌ mia mane Daud tititi-nonosin.
And hath raised up a horn of salvation for us In the house of his servant David
70 Lamatuaꞌ helu basa ia ra eniꞌ a lele uluꞌ a, pake Eni mana ola-ola nara fo rala nara mana maꞌatataaꞌ ra. (aiōn g165)
(As he spake by the mouth of his holy prophets that have been from of old), (aiōn g165)
71 Ia naa nae mboꞌi nggita mia musu tara, ma atahori mana rala nara mera ro nggita.
Salvation from our enemies, and from the hand of all that hate us;
72 Ana natudꞌu rala malolen neu bei-baꞌi tara, huu akaꞌ nasanedꞌa hehelu-fufulin neu se, fo Ana henggenee no baꞌi Abraham a.
To show mercy towards our fathers, And to remember his holy covenant;
The oath which he sware unto Abraham our father,
74 Ana mboꞌiꞌ nggita mia musu tara ena, fo ata bisa beꞌutee neu E, ma sudꞌi tamatau fai.
To grant unto us that we being delivered out of the hand of our enemies Should serve him without fear,
75 Ana mboꞌiꞌ nggita ena, fo tasodꞌa takandoo no ndoo-tetuꞌ ma meumareꞌ sia matan.
In holiness and righteousness before him all our days.
76 Yohanis! Ho ia, au ana ngga. Dei fo atahori rahine nggo rae, ho Lamatualain manaseliꞌ a mana ola-olan. Dei fo muu mufadꞌe atahori ra, fo ara simbo no malole Lamatuaꞌ neneman.
Yea and thou, child, shalt be called the prophet of the Most High: For thou shalt go before the face of the Lord to make ready his ways;
77 Dei fo muu mutudꞌu dalaꞌ neu Lamatuaꞌ atahori nara, fo bisa rahine rae, sira o bisa hambu masoi-masodꞌaꞌ boe, huu Lamatuaꞌ fee ambon neu sala-kilu nara ena.
To give knowledge of salvation unto his people In the remission of their sins,
78 Huu Lamatuaꞌ ralan bꞌangganaꞌus ma sue-lai nggita, naa de Ana fee seluꞌ nggita kakaꞌe feuꞌ, onaꞌ fai feuꞌ nendi manggarelo feuꞌ. Hita mana leo-lao sia maꞌahatuꞌ a ma tamatau mate, huu nda feꞌe malole to Lamatuaꞌ sa, dei fo hambu manggareloꞌ fo nalalao nggita tisiꞌ dꞌala mole-dꞌameꞌ.”
Because of the tender mercy of our God, Whereby the dayspring from on high shall visit us,
To shine upon them that sit in darkness and the shadow of death; To guide our feet into the way of peace.
80 Basa boe ma, Yohanis boe naꞌamoko. Lamatuaꞌ Dula-dalen tao e maꞌadere. Naꞌamoko nema, boe ma neu leo sia mamana rouꞌ, losa ana soꞌu ue-tataos na fee atahori Israꞌel ra.
And the child grew, and waxed strong in spirit, and was in the deserts till the day of his showing unto Israel.
