Luka 2
1 Gele moŵa go che Agusto juŵaliji jwankulu jwa mamwenye wa umwenye wa ku Loma ŵalajisye kuti ŵandu wose pachilambo alembekwe meena gao mu chitabu.
Kwasekusithi ngalezonsuku, isimiso saphuma kuKesari uAgastasi, sokuthi kubhalwe umhlaba wonke.
2 Kuŵalanjikwa ko kwaliji kwaandanda, katema che Kulenio paŵaliji jwankulu jwa chilambo cha ku Silia.
Lokhukubhalwa kwakungokokuqala ukwenziwa lapho uKwiriniya engumbusi weSiriya.
3 Nipele, ŵandu wose ŵajawile kukuŵalanjikwa, kila mundu ku musi wao.
Bonke basebesiya ukuze bayebhalwa, ngulowo lalowo emzini wakibo.
4 Che Yusufu nombe ŵatyosile ku Nasaleti chilambo cha ku Galilaya ni kwaula ku Beselehemu chilambo cha ku Yudea kuŵapagwile che Daudi, ligongo ŵaliji jwa lukosyo lu che Daudi.
LoJosefa laye wenyuka esuka eGalili, emzini iNazaretha, waya eJudiya, emzini kaDavida, othiwa yiBhethelehema, ngoba wayengowendlu lowosendo lukaDavida,
5 Ŵajawile kukulembekwa pamo ni che Maliamu juŵantomele, juŵaliji pa chiilu.
ukuyabhalwa kanye loMariya umkakhe ayemganile, owayezithwele.
6 Paŵaliji ku Beselehemu ko, lyuŵa lya kuligopola ku che Maliamu lyaiche.
Kwasekusithi belapho, zaseziphelela insuku zokubeletha kwakhe.
7 Ŵaligopwele mwanache jwao jwa litiwo jwannume, ŵammilijile iwalo ya chanache ni ŵangoneche mu lichinga mu chombo chakulichisya inyama, pakuŵa nganilipagwa lipesa kwa ŵelewo mu nyuumba ja achalendo.
Wasebeletha indodana yakhe eyingqabutho, wayigoqela ngamalembu, wayilalisa emkolweni, ngoba kwakungelandawo yabo endlini yezihambi.
8 Nipele pachilambo pala paliji ni ŵakuchinga mwitinji ŵaŵalindililaga kwakupisyangana mpingo wa ngondolo syao chilo.
Njalo kwakukhona kulelolizwe abelusi ababehlala egangeni futhi belinde umhlambi wabo ebusuku.
9 Katumetume jwa kwinani jwa Akunnungu ŵakopochele chisisimuchile ni lulanga lwa ukulu wa Ambuje lwalanguchisye mbande syose. Nombewo ŵajogwepe kwannope.
Njalo khangela, ingilosi yeNkosi yema eduze kwabo, lenkazimulo yeNkosi yakhanya ibazingelezele; njalo besaba ngokwesaba okukhulu.
10 Nambo katumetume jwa kwinani jo ŵaasalile, “Nkajogopa! Nnole, nanjigalile ngani jambone jakwasengwasya nnope ŵandu wose ŵa ku Isilaeli.
Ingilosi yasisithi kubo: Lingesabi; ngoba khangelani, ngitshumayela indaba ezinhle kini ezentokozo enkulu, ezakuba kubantu bonke;
11 Pakuŵa lelo jino mu musi u che Daudi, apagwile Nkulupusyo kwaligongo lyenu, ali Kilisito Ambuje.
ngoba lizalelwe lamuhla uMsindisi, onguKristu iNkosi, emzini kaDavida.
12 Ni achichi chichiŵe chimanyisyo chenu, chimunsimane mwanache jwannandi ŵaŵilijile nguo sya chanache ni sooni ŵagoneche mu lichinga mu chombo chakulichisya inyama.”
Njalo lokhu kuzakuba yisibonakaliso kini: Lizathola usane lugoqelwe ngamalembu, lulele emkolweni.
13 Chitema pe kwaoneche mpingo wekulungwa wa achikatumetume ŵa kwinani uli pamo ni katumetume jula, ŵaakusisye Akunnungu, achitiji,
Njalo kwahle kwaba khona kanye lengilosi ixuku lebutho lasezulwini, lidumisa uNkulunkulu, lisithi:
14 “Ukulu kwa Akumanani, ni pachilambo pano chipagwe chitendewele kwa ŵandu ŵakwanonyela.”
Udumo kalube kuNkulunkulu kweliphezulu, lokuthula emhlabeni; isifiso esihle ebantwini.
15 Achikatumetume ŵa kwinani ŵala paŵajaulangene kwinani, ŵakuchinga ŵasalilene, “Tujaulangane sambano jino ku Beselehemu, tukachilole chachikopochele chatumanyisisye Ambuje.”
Kwasekusithi, ingilosi sezisukile kubo zisiya ezulwini, abantu, abangabelusi, bakhulumisana besithi: Ake siye eBhethelehema, sibone leyonto eyenzakeleyo, iNkosi esazise yona.
16 Nipele, ŵajawile kwa chitema ni ŵansimene che Maliamu ni che Yusufu ni mwanache jwannandi ali angoneche mu lichinga mu chombo chakulichisya inyama.
Basebesiza ngokuphangisa, bathola oMariya loJosefa, losane lulele emkolweni.
17 Ŵele ŵakuchinga paŵammweni mwanache jo, ŵaamanyisye ŵandu wose ngani jiŵajipikene kutyochela kwa achikatumetume nkati mwanache jo.
Sebebonile basebesazisa indawo ezizingelezeleyo ngelizwi ababelitshelwe mayelana lalo umntwana omncane.
18 Wose ŵaŵapikene jele ngani jiŵasalilwe ni ŵakuchinga ŵasimosile.
Labo bonke abakuzwayo bamangala ngezinto ezazikhulunywe ngabelusi kubo.
19 Nambo che Maliamu ŵapundile kugaŵika maloŵe go mu ntima mwao achigaganisyaga.
Kodwa uMariya walondoloza wonke la amazwi, enakana ngawo enhliziyweni yakhe.
20 Ŵakuchinga ŵala ŵausile mmangwao aninkwakusya ni kwalapa Akunnungu kwa yose iŵaipilikene ni kwiwona, yose yaliji mpela iŵatite pakusalilwa ni achikatumetume ŵa kwinani.
Basebebuyela abelusi, bemdumisa bembonga uNkulunkulu ngazo zonke izinto ababezizwile lababezibonile, njengalokho okwakukhulunywe kubo.
21 Lyuŵa lya nane kutyochela paŵapagwile ŵamumbesye mwanache, ŵammilasile Che Yesu, liina lilyaliji apegwilwe ni katumetume jwa kwinani katema che Maliamu akanaŵe kuŵa ni chiilu.
Kwathi seziphelile insuku eziyisificaminwembili zokuthi umntwana omncane asokwe, ibizo lakhe laselithiwa nguJesu, elalibizwe yingilosi engakomulwa esiswini.
22 Pagamasile moŵa ga kutama munnuli lyaiche lyuŵa lya kuswejeswa mpela Malajisyo ga Akunnungu gaŵapele che Musa igakuti kulajisya, che Yusufu ni che Maliamu ŵanjigele mwanache ni ŵajawile nawo ku Yelusalemu kukwaŵika paujo pa Ambuje.
Kwathi seziphelele insuku zokuhlanjululwa kwakhe ngokomlayo kaMozisi, bamletha eJerusalema, ukuze bammise phambi kweNkosi
23 Mpela itite pakulembekwa mu Malajisyo, “Jwalijose jwakupagwa jwannume jwa litiwo chaŵilanjikwe jwanswela ni kutyosyekwa kwa ligongo lya masengo ga Ambuje.”
(njengokulotshiweyo emlayweni weNkosi ukuthi konke okwesilisa okuvula isibeletho kuzathiwa kungcwele eNkosini)
24 Nipele ŵajawile kuti akatyosye sadaka, njuŵa siŵili pane makandi gaŵili ga ngunda mpela itite pakusachilwa ni Malajisyo ga Ambuje.
lokuthi banikele umhlatshelo njengokutshiwo emlayweni weNkosi, amajuba amabili kumbe amaphuphu amabili enkwilimba.
25 Kele katema ko kwaliji ni mundu jumo ku Yelusalemu, liina lyakwe che Simeoni, ŵaliji nkupanganya yaili yambone paujo pa Akunnungu. Jweleju jwalindililaga katema ka kutuswa mitima kwa ŵandu ŵa ku Isilaeli. Mbumu jwa Akunnungu ŵaliji pamo nawo.
Njalo khangela, kwakukhona eJerusalema umuntu, obizo lakhe linguSimeyoni, njalo lumuntu wayelungile ekhuthele ekukhonzeni, elindele induduzo kaIsrayeli, loMoya oNgcwele wayephezu kwakhe.
26 Mbumu jwa Akunnungu ŵammunukulile jwelejo kuti ngaawa akanaŵe kwawona Kilisito Nkulupusyo, jwasagulikwe juŵaliji chilanga cha Ambuje.
Futhi kwakubonakalisiwe kuye nguMoya oyiNgcwele, ukuthi kayikubona ukufa engakamboni uKristu weNkosi.
27 Nipele, che Simeoni ŵaiche pa Nyuumba ja Akunnungu ali alongweswe ni Mbumu Jwanswela. Kele katemako achaŵelesi ŵa Che Yesu ŵannyichenawo mwanache jwao pa Nyuumba ja Akunnungu kuti ŵapanganyichisye mpela chisyoŵelo cha Malajisyo.
Wasengena ethempelini ngoMoya; kwathi abazali bemletha umntwana omncane uJesu, ukuze benze ngaye ngokomkhuba womlayo,
28 Che Simeoni ŵampochele mwanache mmakono mwao aninkwatogolela Akunnungu, achitiji,
yena wasemthatha wamphatha engalweni zakhe, wabonga uNkulunkulu, wathi:
29 “Ambuje, sambano nkunechelela kapolo jwenu nyaule kwa chitendewele, mpela intite pakulanga.
Nkosi, khathesi iyekele inceku yakho ihambe ngokuthula, njengokwelizwi lakho;
30 Pakuŵa meeso gangu gauweni ukulupusyo wenu,
ngoba amehlo ami alubonile usindiso lwakho
31 umuupanganyisye paujo pa ŵandu ŵa ilambo yose,
olulungisileyo phambi kobuso babantu bonke;
32 alu ni lulanga lwalukugopola nganisyo sya ŵandu ŵangaŵa Ŵayahudi ni ukulu kwa ŵandu ŵenu ŵa ku Isilaeli.”
ukukhanya kokwembulela abezizwe, lenkazimulo yesizwe sakho uIsrayeli.
33 Atatigwe Che Yesu ni achikulugwe ŵaliji nkugasimonga maloŵe gagaŵechetekwe nkati mwana.
UJosefa lonina basebemangala ngezinto ezatshiwo ngaye.
34 Nipele che Simeoni ŵapele upile ni ŵaasalile che Maliamu achikulugwe Che Yesu, “Nnole, mwanache ju apagwile kwa ligongo lya kugwa kwa ŵandu ŵajinji ni kwinamuka kwa ŵandu ŵajinji ŵa ku Isilaeli. Nombe chaaŵe chimanyisyo chachichikanikwe ni ŵandu,
USimeyoni wasebabusisa, wathi kuMariya unina: Khangela, lo umiselwe ukuwa lokuvuka kwabanengi kuIsrayeli, lokuba yisibonakaliso esizaphikiswa;
35 kuti nganisyo sya ŵandu ŵajinji siwoneche pangali kusisika. Nomwe mwasyene chiimpoteche mu ntima mwenu mpela nkusomwa ni chipula.”
futhi lawe, inkemba izadabula owakho umphefumulo; ukuze imicabango yenhliziyo ezinengi yembulwe.
36 Sooni jwapali jwankongwe jumpepe, jwakulondola jwa Akunnungu juŵachekulwipe nnope, liina lyao lyaliji che Ana binti Fanueli jwa lukosyo lwa Asheli. Mu umwali wao ŵalombekwe ni kutama ni ŵankwakwe kwa yaka saba pe.
Njalo kwakukhona uAna umprofethikazi, indodakazi kaFanuweli, owesizwe sikaAsheri; wayesekhulile kakhulu, ebehlale lendoda iminyaka eyisikhombisa kusukela ebuntombini bakhe,
37 Nombewo ŵasigele ŵakuwililwa ni ŵankwakwe mpaka katema paŵaliji jwanchekulu jwa yaka semanini na nne. Katema kose ko ŵalonjelaga pa Nyuumba ja Akunnungu achitaŵaga ni kupopela muusi ni chilo.
njalo wayengumfelokazi owayengaba leminyaka engamatshumi ayisificaminwembili lane, engasuki ethempelini, ekhonza ngokuzila ukudla langemikhuleko ebusuku lemini.
38 Papopo pepo jwankongwe jo ŵalikopwesye paujo ni kwatogolela Akunnungu ni kusala ngani sya mwanache jo kwa ŵandu wose ŵaŵaliji nkulolela kuwombolwa ni kulecheleswa kwa Yelusalemu.
Laye efika ngalelohola wadumisa uNkulunkulu, wakhuluma ngaye kubo bonke ababelindele inkululeko eJerusalema.
39 Achaŵelesi ŵa Che Yesu paŵamasile kupanganya yose iyaliji mu malajisyo ga Ambuje, ŵausile kumangwao ku Nasaleti chilambo cha ku Galilaya.
Kwathi sebeqedile konke okungokomlayo weNkosi, babuyela eGalili, emzini wakibo iNazaretha.
40 Jwele mwanache jwakusile ni jwalimbangene, jwagumbele lunda ni ntuuka wa Akunnungu ŵaliji pamo nawo.
Lomntwana omncane wakhula, waqina emoyeni, wagcwala inhlakanipho; lomusa kaNkulunkulu wawuphezu kwakhe.
41 Achaŵelesi ŵa Che Yesu ŵaliji ni chisyoŵelo cha kwaula ku Yelusalemu chaka ni chaka katema ka chindimba cha Pasaka ja Ŵayahudi.
Njalo abazali bakhe babesiya eJerusalema iminyaka yonke ngomkhosi wephasika.
42 Che Yesu paŵaliji ni yaka kumi na mbili, ŵapite pamo nawo ku chindimba cho mpela itite pakuŵa chisyoŵelo.
Kwathi eseleminyaka elitshumi lambili, sebenyukele eJerusalema njengomkhuba womkhosi,
43 Pagamasile moŵa ga chindimba cho, ŵatandite ulendo wa kuuja mmangwao, nambo mwanache Che Yesu ŵasigele ku Yelusalemu pangaimanyilila achaŵelesi ŵao.
njalo sebeziqedile insuku, ekubuyeleni kwabo, umntwana uJesu wasala eJerusalema; njalo uJosefa lonina bengazi;
44 Ŵaganisisye kuti ŵaliji pamo mumpingo wa ŵandu ŵa ulendo, ŵajesile lyuŵa tetete, nipele ŵatandite kwasosa mwa achalongo achinjao ni achambusanga ŵao.
kodwa becabanga ukuthi wayesexukwini endleleni, bahamba uhambo losuku, bamdinga phakathi kwezinini labazana labo;
45 Paŵalepele kwaona ŵausile ku Yelusalemu achasosaga.
kodwa bengamtholi, babuyela eJerusalema, bemdinga.
46 Pagapite moŵa gatatu, ŵansimene atemi pasikati ŵakwiganya Malajisyo pa Nyuumba ja Akunnungu, achapilikanilaga ni kwausya mausyo.
Kwasekusithi emva kwensuku ezintathu, bamthola ethempelini, ehlezi phakathi kwabafundisi, njalo ebalalela, futhi ebabuza.
47 Wose ŵaŵapikene maloŵe gao ŵausimosile umanyilisi wakwe ni iŵatiji pakwanga kwa lunda.
Njalo bonke ababemuzwa bamangala kakhulu ngolwazi lempendulo zakhe.
48 Achaŵelesi ŵao paŵammweni ŵasimosile. Che Maliamu achikulugwe, ŵammusisye Che Yesu, “Ana mmwe mwanangu, ligongo lyachi ntutesile yeleyi? Nnole, atati ŵenu noneji twaliji nkunsosa tuli ni lipamba.”
Kwathi bembona bamangala; lonina wathi kuye: Mntanami, wenzeleni okunje kithi? Khangela, uyihlo lami besikudinga sidubekile.
49 Nombejo ŵajanjile, “Nambo mwansosaga ligongo lyachi? Nganinnyimanyilila kuti ngusachilwa kuŵa pa nyuumba ja Atati ŵangu?”
Wasesithi kubo: Kungani lingidinga? Belingakwazi yini ukuthi kumele ukuthi ngibe sezintweni zikaBaba?
50 Nambo achaŵelesi ŵao nganagamanyilila malumbo ga maloŵe gaŵasalilaga.
Kodwa bona kabaliqedisisanga ilizwi alikhuluma kubo.
51 Nipele ŵausile nawo ku Nasaleti ni ŵaliji nkwapilikanichisya. Achikulugwe ŵapundile kuiganisya indu yose mu ntima mwao.
Wasesehla labo, weza eNazaretha; wazehlisela ngaphansi kwabo. Unina wasegcina zonke lezizinto enhliziyweni yakhe.
52 Nombe Che Yesu ŵapundile kula mu lunda ni lisusa ni ŵapundile kunonyelwa ni Akunnungu ni ŵandu.
UJesu waseqhubeka enhlakanipheni lekukhuleni, lekuthandekeni kuNkulunkulu lebantwini.
