Lukas 2
1 Eta guerta cedin egun hetan ethor baitzedin ordenança-bat Cesar Augustoren partez, scribuz iar ledin mundua oro.
Now it came to pass in those days, there went out a decree from Caesar Augustus, that all the world should be enrolled.
2 (Lehen descriptione haur eguin cedin Cyrenius Syriaco gobernadore cenean)
This was the first enrollment made when Quirinius was governor of Syria.
3 Eta ioaiten ciraden guciac scributan iartera, batbedera cein bere hirirát.
And all went to enroll themselves, every one to his own city.
4 Igan cedin bada Ioseph-ere Galileatic, Nazaretheco hiritic, Iudeara, Dauid-en ciuitate Bethlehem deitzen denera (ceren baitzén Dauid-en etchetic eta arraçatic)
And Joseph also went up from Galilee, out of the city of Nazareth, into Judaea, to the city of David, which is called Bethlehem, because he was of the house and family of David;
5 Scributan iar ledinçát Maria emaztetan eman içan çayonarequin, cein baitzén içorra.
to enroll himself with Mary, who was betrothed to him, being great with child.
6 Eta guertha cedin hec han ciradela, compli baitzitecen haren ertzeco egunac.
And it came to pass, while they were there, the days were fulfilled that she should be delivered.
7 Eta erdi cedin bere seme lehen iayoaz, eta bandatoz trocha ceçan hura, eta eçar ceçan mangederán, ceren ezpaitzén hayendaco lekuric ostalerián.
And she brought forth her firstborn son; and she wrapped him in swaddling clothes, and laid him in a manger, because there was no room for them in the inn.
8 Eta ciraden comarca berean artzain campoetan ceunçanac, eta gauazco veillác bere arthaldearen gainean beguiratzen cituztenac.
And there were shepherds in the same country abiding in the field, and keeping watch by night over their flock.
9 Eta huná, Iaunaren Aingueruä vstegaberic ethor cequién, eta Iaunaren gloriác argui ceçan hayén inguruän, eta icidura handiz ici citecen.
And an angel of the Lord stood by them, and the glory of the Lord shone round about them: and they were sore afraid.
And the angel said unto them, Be not afraid; for behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy which shall be to all the people:
11 Ecen Dauid-en ciuitatean iayo çaiçuela Saluadorea, cein baita Christ Iauna.
for there is born to you this day in the city of David a Saviour, which is Christ the Lord.
12 Eta haur vkanen duçue seignale, eridenen baituçue haourra bandatoz trochatua, mangederán eçarria.
And this [is] the sign unto you; Ye shall find a babe wrapped in swaddling clothes, and lying in a manger.
13 Eta bertan Aingueruärequin eguin cedin armada celestial multzobat, laudatzen çutela Iaincoa, eta cioitela,
And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising God, and saying,
14 Gloria ceru guciz goretan Iaincoari, eta lurrean baque, guiçonac baithara vorondate ona.
Glory to God in the highest, And on earth peace among men in whom he is well pleased.
15 Eta guertha cedin, hetaric Aingueruäc cerurat ioan ciradenean, erran baitzeçaten artzainec elkarren artean, Goacen bada Bethlehemerano, eta dacussagun eguin içan den gauça haur, cein Iaunac iaquin eraci baitraucu.
And it came to pass, when the angels went away from them into heaven, the shepherds said one to another, Let us now go even unto Bethlehem, and see this thing that is come to pass, which the Lord hath made known unto us.
16 Eta ethor citecen lehiatuqui, eta eriden citzaten Maria eta Ioseph, eta haourtchoa mangederán eçarria.
And they came with haste, and found both Mary and Joseph, and the babe lying in the manger.
17 Eta ikussi vkan çutenean, publica ceçaten haourtchoaz erran içan çayena.
And when they saw it, they made known concerning the saying which was spoken to them about this child.
18 Eta ençun vkan cituzten guciéc mirets ceçaten hæy artzainéz erran içan çaizten gaucén gainean.
And all that heard it wondered at the things which were spoken unto them by the shepherds.
19 Eta Mariac beguiratzen cituen gauça hauc guciac, bere bihotzean ehaiten cituela.
But Mary kept all these sayings, pondering them in her heart.
20 Eta itzul citecen artzainac, glorificatzen eta laudatzen çutela Iaincoa, ençun eta ikussi vkan cituzten gauça guciéz, erran içan cayen beçala.
And the shepherds returned, glorifying and praising God for all the things that they had heard and seen, even as it was spoken unto them.
21 Eta complitu içan ciradenean haourtchoaren circonciditzeco çortzi egunac, orduan deithu içan da haren icena Iesus, nola deithu içan baitzén Aingueruäz, sabelean concebi cedin baino lehen.
And when eight days were fulfilled for circumcising him, his name was called JESUS, which was so called by the angel before he was conceived in the womb.
22 Eta complitu içan ciradenean Mariaren purificationeco egunac Moysesen leguearen arauez, eraman ceçaten haourtchoa, Ierusalemera, Iaunari presenta lieçotençát.
And when the days of their purification according to the law of Moses were fulfilled, they brought him up to Jerusalem, to present him to the Lord
23 (Nola baita scribatua Iaunaren Leguean, Ar vme-vncia irequiten duen gucia, saindu Iaunari deithuren çayó)
(as it is written in the law of the Lord, Every male that openeth the womb shall be called holy to the Lord),
24 Eta eman leçatençát oblationea, Iaunaren Leguean erran denaren araura, turturela pare-bat, edo bi vsso columba vme.
and to offer a sacrifice according to that which is said in the law of the Lord, A pair of turtledoves, or two young pigeons.
25 Eta huná, cen guiçombat Ierusalemen Simeon deitzen cenic: eta cen guiçon haur iusto eta Iaincoaren beldur, Israeleco consolationearen beguira cegoena: eta Spiritu saindua cen haren gainean.
And behold, there was a man in Jerusalem, whose name was Simeon; and this man was righteous and devout, looking for the consolation of Israel: and the Holy Spirit was upon him.
26 Eta denuntiatu içan çayón diuinoqui Spiritu sainduaz, etzuela herioric ikussiren, non lehen ikus ezleçan Christ Iaunarena.
And it had been revealed unto him by the Holy Spirit, that he should not see death, before he had seen the Lord’s Christ.
27 Hura bada ethor cedin Spirituaz mouituric templera: eta sartzen çutela Iesus haourra bere aita-améc, haren causaz eguin leçatencát Legueco costumaren araura:
And he came in the Spirit into the temple: and when the parents brought in the child Jesus, that they might do concerning him after the custom of the law,
28 Harc orduan har ceçan hura bere bessoetara, eta lauda ceçan Iaincoa, eta erran ceçan,
then he received him into his arms, and blessed God, and said,
29 Iauna, orain vtziten duc eure cerbitzaria, eure hitzaren araura baquez.
Now lettest thou thy servant depart, O Lord, According to thy word, in peace;
30 Ecen ikussi dié ene beguiéc hire saluagarria,
For mine eyes have seen thy salvation,
31 Cein preparatu baituc populu gucién beguitharte aitzinean.
Which thou hast prepared before the face of all peoples;
32 Argui Gentiley arguitzecoa, eta Israeléco hire populuaren gloriá.
A light for revelation to the Gentiles, And the glory of thy people Israel.
33 Eta haren aita eta ama miraz ceuden harçaz erraiten ciraden gaucéz.
And his father and his mother were marveling at the things which were spoken concerning him;
34 Eta benedica citzan Simeonec, eta erran cieçón haren ama Mariari, Huná, eçarri içan dun haur anhitzen destructionetan, eta anhitzen resurrectionetan Israelen, eta signotan ceini nehor contrastaturen baitzayo:
and Simeon blessed them, and said unto Mary his mother, Behold, this [child] is set for the falling and rising up of many in Israel; and for a sign which is spoken against;
35 Are eurorren arima-ere iraganen din ezpata batec, aguer ditecençát anhitz bihotzetaco pensamenduac.
yea and a sword shall pierce through thine own soul; that thoughts out of many hearts may be revealed.
36 Bacén prophetessabat-ere Anna deitzen cenic Phanuel-en alaba, Aser-en leinuco, cein baitzén ia adin handitacoa, eta vici içan cen senharrarequin çazpi vrthez bere virginitateaz gueroztic.
And there was one Anna, a prophetess, the daughter of Phanuel, of the tribe of Asher (she was of a great age, having lived with a husband seven years from her virginity,
37 Eta lauroguey eta laur vrtheren inguruco alharguna celaric, etzen partitzen templetic, barurez eta orationez cerbitzatzen çuela Iaincoa gau eta egun.
and she had been a widow even for fourscore and four years), which departed not from the temple, worshipping with fastings and supplications night and day.
38 Hunec-ere bada ordu berean ethorriric, laudatzen çuen Iauna, eta harçaz minço çayen redemptionearen beguira Ierusalemen ceuden guciey.
And coming up at that very hour she gave thanks unto God, and spake of him to all them that were looking for the redemption of Jerusalem.
39 Eta acabatu çutenean gucia Iaunaren Leguearen araura, itzul citecen Galileara, bere Nazaretheco hirira.
And when they had accomplished all things that were according to the law of the Lord, they returned into Galilee, to their own city Nazareth.
40 Eta haourtchoa handitzen cen eta spirituz fortificatzen, eta bethatzen cen sapientiaz: eta Iaincoaren gratiá cen haren gainean.
And the child grew, and waxed strong, filled with wisdom: and the grace of God was upon him.
41 Eta ioaiten ciraden haren aita-amác vrthe oroz Ierusalemera Bazco bestán.
And his parents went every year to Jerusalem at the feast of the passover.
42 Eta hamabi vrthetara heldu cenean, igan citecen hec Ierusalemera bestaco costumaren arauez:
And when he was twelve years old, they went up after the custom of the feast;
43 Eta hartaco egunac complitu ciradenean, hec itzultzen ciradela, azquen cedin Iesus haourra Ierusalemen: eta etzaquión ohart Ioseph, ez bere ama:
and when they had fulfilled the days, as they were returning, the boy Jesus tarried behind in Jerusalem; and his parents knew it not;
44 Baina vstez hura compainian cen, ioan citecen egun baten bidean: eta haren bilha çabiltzan ahaidén eta eçagunén artean.
but supposing him to be in the company, they went a day’s journey; and they sought for him among their kinsfolk and acquaintance:
45 Eta erideiten etzutenean, bihur citecen Ierusalemera, haren bilha çabiltzala.
and when they found him not, they returned to Jerusalem, seeking for him.
46 Eta guertha cedin, hirur egunen buruän eriden baitzeçaten hura templean, iarriric cegoela doctoren artean, hæy behatzen çayela eta hec interrogatzen cituela.
And it came to pass, after three days they found him in the temple, sitting in the midst of the doctors, both hearing them, and asking them questions:
47 Eta spantatzen ciraden hura ençuten çutén guciac, haren iaquinaren eta respostuén gainean.
and all that heard him were amazed at his understanding and his answers.
48 Eta hura ikussiric spanta citecen: eta erran cieçón bere amác, Semé, cergatic horrela eguin draucuc? huná, hire aita eta ni keichuric hire bilha guiniabiltzán.
And when they saw him, they were astonished: and his mother said unto him, Son, why hast thou thus dealt with us? behold, thy father and I sought thee sorrowing.
49 Orduan dioste, Cergatic da ene bilha baitzinabiltzaten? etzinaquitén ecen neure Aitaren eguitecoetan occupatua behar dudala içan?
And he said unto them, How is it that ye sought me? wist ye not that I must be in my Father’s house?
50 Baina hec etzeçaten adi erran cerauen hitza.
And they understood not the saying which he spake unto them.
51 Orduan iauts cedin hequin, eta ethor cedin Nazarethera: eta cen hayen suiet: eta haren amac beguiratzen cituen hitz hauc gucioc bere bihotzean.
And he went down with them, and came to Nazareth; and he was subject unto them: and his mother kept all [these] sayings in her heart.
52 Eta Iesus auançatzen cen sapientiaz eta handitzez, eta gratiaz Iaincoa baithan eta guiçonac baithan.
And Jesus advanced in wisdom and stature, and in favour with God and men.
