< Lukas 1 >
1 CEREN anhitzec escu eçarri baitu narratione baten scribatzera complituqui gure artean certificatu içan diraden gaucéz,
Forasmuch as many have taken in hand to draw up a narrative concerning those matters which have been fulfilled among us,
2 Eçagutzera eman draucuten beçala lehen hatsetic ikussi dituztenéc eta hitzaren ministre içan diradenéc.
even as they delivered them unto us, which from the beginning were eyewitnesses and ministers of the word,
3 Niri-ere on iruditu içan ciaitadac gucia hatsetic finerano diligentqui comprehendituric, hiri punctuz punctu heçaz scribatzera, o Theophile gucizco excellenteá:
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 Hobequi eçagut deçánçat ikassi dituán gaucén eguiá.
that thou mightest know the certainty concerning the things wherein thou wast instructed.
5 HERODES Iudeaco regueren egunetan cen Zacharias deitzen cen Sacrificadorebat, Abiaren araldetic: eta haren emaztea cen Aaronen alabetaric, eta haren icena Elisabeth.
There was in the days of Herod, king of Judaea, 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 Biac ciraden iusto Iaincoaren aitzinean, Iaunaren, manamendu eta ordenança gucietan reprochuric gabe çabiltzanac.
And they were both righteous before God, walking in all the commandments and ordinances of the Lord blameless.
7 Eta haourric etzutén, ceren Elisabeth steril baitzen, eta biac baitziraden adinez aitzinaratuac.
And they had no child, because that Elisabeth was barren, and they both were [now] well stricken in years.
8 Guertha cedin bada, harc Iaincoaren aitzinean bere aldian sacrificadoregoa exercitzen çuenean,
Now it came to pass, while he executed the priest’s office before God in the order of his course,
9 Sacrificadoregoaren officioco costumaren araura, çorthea eror baitzequión Iaunaren templean sarthuric encensamenduaren eguiteco.
according to the custom of the priest’s office, his lot was to enter into the temple of the Lord and burn incense.
10 Eta populu guciac campoan othoitz eguiten çuen encensamendua eguiten cen orduan.
And the whole multitude of the people were praying without at the hour of incense.
11 Eta aguer cequión Iaunaren Aingueruä, cegoela encensamenduco aldarearen escuinean.
And there appeared unto him an angel of the Lord standing on the right side of the altar of incense.
12 Eta Zacharias trubla cedin hura ikussiric, eta icidurabat eror cedin haren gainera.
And Zacharias was troubled when he saw [him], and fear fell upon him.
13 Orduan erran ciecón Aingueruäc, Eztuala beldurric Zacharias: ecen ençun içan duc hire othoitzá, eta Elisabeth eure emaztea erdiren çaic seme batez: eta hari icen emanen draucac Ioannes
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 Eta bozcario eta alegrança vkanen duc, eta anhitz haren sortzearen gainean alegueraturen dituc,
And thou shalt have joy and gladness; and many shall rejoice at his birth.
15 Ecen handi içanen duc Iaunaren aitzinean, eta mahatsarnoric ez berce arnoric eztic edanen: eta Spiritu sainduaz betheren datec bere amaren sabeleandanic.
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 Ghost, even from his mother’s womb.
16 Eta anhitz Israeleco haourretaric conuertituren dic berén Iainco Iaunagana.
And many of the children of Israel shall he turn unto the Lord their God.
17 Eta hura ioanen duc haren aitzinean Eliasen spiriturequin eta verthuterequin, conuerti ditzançat aitén bihotzac semetara eta desobedientac iustoén çuhurtassunera: Iaunari populu vngui instruitubat appain dieçonçat.
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 Orduan erran cieçon Zachariasec Aingueruäri, Nolatán hori eçaguturen dut? ecen ni nauc çahar, eta ene emaztea duc bere egunetan aitzinaratua.
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 Eta ihardesten çuela Aingueruäc erran cieçon, Ni nauc Gabriel Iaincoaren aitzinean assistitzen naicena, eta igorri içan nauc hirequin minçatzera, eta berri on hauen hiri declaratzera.
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 Eta horrá, mutu içanen aiz eta ecin minçaturen aiz, gauça hauc eguin ditecen egunerano: ceren ezpaitituc sinhetsi ene hitz bere demborán complituren diradenac.
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 Eta populua cegoen Zachariasen beguira, eta miresten çuen nola harc hambat berancen çuen templean.
And the people were waiting for Zacharias, and they marveled while he tarried in the temple.
22 Eta ilki cenean ecin minça cequidien, eta eçagut ceçaten ecen cembeit visione ikussi çuela templean: ecen keinuz aditzera emaiten cerauen, eta mutu guelditu ican cen.
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 Eta guertha cedin, haren officioco egunac acabatu ciradenean, bere etcherát itzul baitzedin.
And it came to pass, when the days of his ministration were fulfilled, he departed unto his house.
24 Eta egun hayén ondoan haren emazte Elisabethec concebi ceçan: eta estal cedin borz hilebethez, cioela,
And after these days Elisabeth his wife conceived; and she hid herself five months, saying,
25 Segur, hunela eguin vkan draut Iaunac, visitatu nauen egunetan, ene laidoa guiçonén artetic ken leçançat.
Thus hath the Lord done unto me in the days wherein he looked upon [me], to take away my reproach among men.
26 Eta seigarren hilebethean igor cedin Gabriel Aingueruä Iaincoaz Galileaco hiri Nazareth deitzen denera:
Now in the sixth month the angel Gabriel was sent from God unto a city of Galilee, named Nazareth,
27 Dauid-en etchetico Ioseph deitzen cen guiçon-batequin fedatua cen virgina batgana: eta virginaren icena cen 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 Eta Aingueruäc hura baithara sarthuric, erran ceçan, Salutatzen aut gratia eguin çainaná: Iauna dun hirequin, benedicatua hi emaztén artean.
And he came in unto her, and said, Hail, thou that art highly favoured, the Lord [is] with thee.
29 Eta hura, Ainguerua ikussiric trubla cedin haren erranaren gainean, eta pensatzen çuen ceric licén salutatione hura.
But she was greatly troubled at the saying, and cast in her mind what manner of salutation this might be.
30 Orduan diotsa Aingueruäc, Mariá, eztunala beldurric, ecen eriden dun gratia Iaincoa baithan.
And the angel said unto her, Fear not, Mary: for thou hast found favour with God.
31 Eta horrá, concebituren dun eure sabelean, eta erdiren aiz seme batez eta deithuren dun haren icena Iesus.
And behold, thou shalt conceive in thy womb, and bring forth a son, and shalt call his name JESUS.
32 Hura içanen dun handi, eta eritziren ciayón Subiranoaren Semé: eta emanen diraucan Iainco Iaunac bere aita Dauid-en thronoa.
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 Eta regnaturen din Iacob-en etchearen gainean eternalqui, eta haren resumaren finic eztun içanen. (aiōn )
and he shall reign over the house of Jacob for ever; and of his kingdom there shall be no end. (aiōn )
34 Erran ciecón orduan Mariac Aingueruäri, Nola içanen da hori, guiçonic eçagutzen eztudanaz gueroz.
And Mary said unto the angel, How shall this be, seeing I know not a man?
35 Eta ihardesten çuela Aingueruäc erran cieçón, Spiritu saindua hire gainera ethorriren dun eta Subiranoaren verthuteac itzal eguinen draun eta halacotz hitaric sorthuren den saindua, Iaincoaren Seme deithuren dun.
And the angel answered and said unto her, The Holy Ghost shall come upon thee, and the power of the Most High shall overshadow thee: wherefore also that which is to be born shall be called holy, the Son of God.
36 Eta hará, Elisabeth hire lehen gussua, harc-ere concebitu din semebat bere çahartzean, eta hil haur din seigarrena steril deitzen cenac.
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 Ecen eztun deus impossibleric içanen Iaincoa baithan.
For no word from God shall be void of power.
38 Eta erran ceçan Mariac, Huná Iaunaren nescatoa: eguin bequit hire hitzaren araura. Eta parti cedin harenganic Aingueruä.
And Mary said, Behold, the handmaid of the Lord; be it unto me according to thy word. And the angel departed from her.
39 Eta iaiquiric Maria egun hetan ioan cedin mendietara lehiatuqui Iudaco hiri batetara.
And Mary arose in these days and went into the hill country with haste, into a city of Judah;
40 Eta sar cedin Zachariasen etchera, eta saluta ceçan Elisabeth.
and entered into the house of Zacharias and saluted Elisabeth.
41 Eta guertha cedin, ençun ceçanean Elisabethec Mariaren salutationea, iauz baitzedin haourra haren sabelean, eta bethe cedin Spiritu sainduaz Elisabeth:
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 Ghost;
42 Eta oihuz iar cedin voz handiz, eta erran ceçan, Benedicatua hi emaztén artean, ecen benedicatua dun hire sabeleco fructua.
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 Eta nondic haur niri, ethor dadin ene Iaunaren ama enegana?
And whence is this to me, that the mother of my Lord should come unto me?
44 Ecen huná, hire salutationearen voza ene beharrietara heldu içan den beçain sarri, iauci içan dun bozcarioz haourra ene sabelean.
For behold, when the voice of thy salutation came into mine ears, the babe leaped in my womb for joy.
45 Eta dohatsu aiz sinhetsi baitun, ceren complituren baitirade Iaunaz erran çaizquinan gauçác
And blessed [is] she that believed; for there shall be a fulfillment of the things which have been spoken to her from the Lord.
46 Eta dio Mariac, Magnificatzen du ene arimác Iauna.
And Mary said, My soul doth magnify the Lord,
47 Eta alegueratu da ene spiritua Iainco ene Saluadorea baithan.
And my spirit hath rejoiced in God my Saviour.
48 Ceren behatu vkan baitu bere nescatoaren beheratassunera: ecen huná, hemendic harat dohatsu erranen naute generatione guciéc.
For he hath looked upon the low estate of his handmaiden: For behold, from henceforth all generations shall call me blessed.
49 Ecen gauça handiac eguin drauzquit botheretsu denac: eta haren icena saindu da:
For he that is mighty hath done to me great things; And holy is his name.
50 Eta haren misericordia da generationetaric generationetara haren beldurra dutenetara.
And his mercy is unto generations and generations On them that fear him.
51 Botheretsuqui eguin vkan du bere bessoaz: deseguin ditu superboac berén bihotzeco pensamenduan.
He hath shewed strength with his arm; He hath scattered the proud in the imagination of their heart.
52 Egotzi ditu botheretsuac thronoetaric, eta goratu ditu chipiac.
He hath put down princes from [their] thrones, And hath exalted them of low degree.
53 Gosse ciradenac bethe ditu onez: eta abratsac igorri ditu hutsic

54 Sustengatu vkan du Israel bere haourra, bere misericordiáz orhoit içanez.
He hath holpen Israel his servant, That he might remember mercy
55 Gure aitey minçatu çayen beçala, Abrahami eta haren haciari iagoiticotz. (aiōn )

Now Elisabeth’s time was fulfilled that she should be delivered; and she brought forth a son.
58 Eta ençun ceçaten haren auçoéc eta ahaidéc, nola frangoqui Iaunac bere misericordia declaratu çuen harengana, eta alegueratzen ciraden harequin.
And her neighbours and her kinsfolk heard that the Lord had magnified his mercy towards her; and they rejoiced with her.
59 Eta guertha cedin, çortzigarreneco egunean ethor baitzitecen haourtchoaren circonciditzera, eta deitzen çuten hura bere aitaren icenaz, Zacharias.
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 Baina ihardesten çuela haren amac erran ceçan, Ez, baina deithuren da Ioannes.
And his mother answered and said, Not so; but he shall be called John.
61 Eta erran cieçoten, Eztun nehor hire ahaidetan icen horrez deitzen denic.
And they said unto her, There is none of thy kindred that is called by this name.
62 Orduan keinu eguin cieçoten haren aitari, nola nahi luen hura dei ledin.

And his mouth was opened immediately, and his tongue [loosed], and he spake, blessing God.
65 Eta icidura ethor cedin aldiri hetaco gucién gainera, eta Iudaco herri mendiçu orotan publica citecen hitz hauc guciac.
And fear came on all that dwelt round about them: and all these sayings were noised abroad throughout all the hill country of Judaea.
66 Eta ençun cituzten guciéc, eçar citzaten bere bihotzean, erraiten çutela, Nor haourtcho haur içanen da? Eta Iaunaren escua cen harequin.
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.
