Luke 1
1 Many have undertaken to compose an account of the things that have been fulfilled among us,
Do bhrígh gur ghabhadar mórán do láimh sdair do sgríobhadh air na neithibh agá bhfuil a sáirfhios aguinne,
2 just as they were handed down to us by the initial eyewitnesses and servants of the word.
Do réir mar thugadar na dáoine do chonnairc lé na súilibh rein ó thús, agus do bhí ag miniosdrálachd na bréithre, dhúinne íad;
3 Therefore, having carefully investigated everything from the beginning, it seemed good also to me to write an orderly account for you, most excellent Theophilus,
Do chonncas damhsa mar an gceudna, a Theophilus ro oirdheirc, ar bhfagháil feasa iomlan gach uile neithe ó na bhfíorthosach dhamh, a sgríobhadh chugadsa a nórdughadh,
4 so that you may know the certainty of the things you have been taught.
Do chum go mbía deimhin na mbriathar, do múineadh dhuit agad
5 In the time of Herod king of Judea there was a priest named Zechariah, who belonged to the priestly division of Abijah, and whose wife Elizabeth was a daughter of Aaron.
Re linn Iorúaith, rí thire Iúdaighe, do bhí sagart airighe dár bhainm Sacharías, do sheal Abía: agus a bhean dingheanuibh Aaróin, agus, Elísabet do baimn dhi.
6 Both of them were righteous in the sight of God, walking blamelessly in all the commandments and decrees of the Lord.
Agus do bhádar a ráon nit ndáoinibh fíreanta a bhfíadhnuisi Dé, ag siobhal go neimhchiontach ann uile aitheantuibh agus órduighthibh an Tighearna.
7 But they had no children, because Elizabeth was barren, and they were both well along in years.
Agus ní raíbh, shiochd orrtha, do bhrígh go raibh Elisábet aimrid agus go raibh áois mhór aca ar áon.
8 One day while Zechariah’s division was on duty and he was serving as priest before God,
Agus tárla, an tan do bhí sé ag déanamh oifige an tsagairt a bhfiadhnuisi Déann a sheal fein,
9 he was chosen by lot, according to the custom of the priesthood, to enter the temple of the Lord and burn incense.
Do réir ghnáthuighthe oifige an tsagairt, go ráinic dhó an túis do losgadh tar éis dul a sdeach go teampoll an Tighearna dhó.
10 And at the hour of the incense offering, the whole congregation was praying outside.
Agus do bhí coimhthionól an phubail uile ag déanamh úrnuighe a muigh a naimsir na túise.
11 Just then an angel of the Lord appeared to Zechariah, standing at the right side of the altar of incense.
Agus do taidhbhreadh dhó aingeal an Tighearna na sheasamh ar an dtáoibh ndeas daltóir na túise.
12 When Zechariah saw him, he was startled and gripped with fear.
Agus ar na fhaicsin do Shacharías, do bhí sé ar na bhúaidhreadh, agus do ghlac eagla é.
13 But the angel said to him, “Do not be afraid, Zechariah, because your prayer has been heard. Your wife Elizabeth will bear you a son, and you are to give him the name John.
Achd a dubhairt an taingeal ris, Ná bíodh eagla ort, a Shacharías: óir do héisdeadh húrnuighe; agus béaruidh do bhean Elisábet mac dhuit, agus do bhéara tú Eóin mar ainm air.
14 He will be a joy and delight to you, and many will rejoice at his birth,
Agus budh gáirdeachus agus lúathgháire dhuit é; agus biaidh lúathghaire ar mhóran fa na bhreith.
15 for he will be great in the sight of the Lord. He shall never take wine or strong drink, and he will be filled with the Holy Spirit even from his mother’s womb.
Oir bíaidh sé na dhuine mhór a bhfíadhnuisi an Tighearna, agus ni íobha sé fíon na deoch láidir; agus fós bíaidh sé lan don Spiorad Náomh, ó bhroinn a mháthar.
16 Many of the sons of Israel he will turn back to the Lord their God.
Agus fillfidh sé mórán do chlannuibh Israél chum an Tighearna a Ndia féin.
17 And he will go on before the Lord in the spirit and power of Elijah, to turn the hearts of the fathers to their children and the disobedient to the wisdom of the righteous—to make ready a people prepared for the Lord.”
Oir géubhaidh seisean roimhesan a spioraid agus a shubháilce Elias, dfilleadh chroidheadh na naithreach chum na cloinne, agus na neasmhal chum gliocuis na dáoine gcomhthrom; agus dullmhughadh phobuil dhiongmhálta don Tighearna.
18 “How can I be sure of this?” Zechariah asked the angel. “I am an old man, and my wife is well along in years.”
Agus a dubhairt Sacharías ris an aingeal, Cionnas bhías a fhios so agamsa? óir a táim um dhuine arsuidh, agus a tá áois mhór ag am mhnáoi.
19 “I am Gabriel,” replied the angel. “I stand in the presence of God, and I have been sent to speak to you and to bring you this good news.
Agus ar bhfreagra don aingeal a dubhairt sé ris, Is misi Gabríel, sheasas a bhfíadhnuisi Dé; agus do cuireadh mé do labhairt riotsa, agus dinnsin na núaidheachd maith so dhuit.
20 And now you will be silent and unable to speak until the day this comes to pass, because you did not believe my words, which will be fulfilled at their proper time.”
Agus, féuch, bíaidh tú gan úrlabhra, agus ní bá héidir leachd labhairt, go soithe an lá an a dtiocfaid na neithe so chum críche, do bhrígh nar chréid tu dom bhríathraibhsi, noch coimhlíonfuighear na nam féin.
21 Meanwhile, the people were waiting for Zechariah and wondering why he took so long in the temple.
Agus do bhí an pobal ag fuireach ré Sacharías, agus do biongnadh léo an fad do fhan sé sa teampoll.
22 When he came out and was unable to speak to them, they realized he had seen a vision in the temple. He kept making signs to them but remained speechless.
Agus ar ndul a mach dhó, nír bhéidir leis labhairt ríu: agus do aithnigheadar go bhfacaidh sé taidhbhsi sa teampoll: óir do sméid sé orrtha, agus do fhan sé balbh.
23 And when the days of his service were complete, he returned home.
Agus tárla dhó, an tan do coimhlionadh laéthe a mhiniosdrálachda, go ndeachaidh sé dhá thigh féin.
24 After these days, his wife Elizabeth became pregnant and for five months remained in seclusion. She declared,
Agus tar éis na laethesi, do toirrcheadh Elisabet a bheansân, agus do fholaigh si í féin ar feadh chuig mios, ag rádh,
25 “The Lord has done this for me. In these days He has shown me favor and taken away my disgrace among the people.”
Oír is mar so do rinne an Tighearna rium ann sna laethibh an ar fhéuch sé oram, do thógbháil mo neimhcheana dhiom a measg na ndáoine.
26 In the sixth month, God sent the angel Gabriel to a town in Galilee called Nazareth,
Agus an sa seisiodh mi, do cuireadh an taingeall Gabríel ó Dhía go cathruigh don Ghalilé, dár bainm Násaret,
27 to a virgin pledged in marriage to a man named Joseph, who was of the house of David. And the virgin’s name was Mary.
Dionnsuighe óighe ar a raibh ceart ag fear do thigh Dháibhí, dár aínm Ióseph; agus do bé do bainm do nóigh, Muire.
28 The angel appeared to her and said, “Greetings, you who are highly favored! The Lord is with you.”
Agus ar ndul a sdeach dit hionnsuighe do naingeal, a dubhairt se, Dia do bheatha a ógh roghrásamhuil: a tá an Tighearna maille riot: is beannuighe thú eidir na mnáibh.
29 Mary was greatly troubled at his words and wondered what kind of greeting this might be.
Agus an tan do chonnairc sí é, do bhí sí ar na búaidhreadh fá na bhriathraibh, agus do bhí sí ag smúaineadh créd an ghné bheannughtheaso.
30 So the angel told her, “Do not be afraid, Mary, for you have found favor with God.
Agus a dubhairt an taineal ria, Ná bíodh eagla ort, a Mhuire: óir fúair tú grása ó Dhía.
31 Behold, you will conceive and give birth to a son, and you are to give Him the name Jesus.
Agus, féuch, bíaidh tú torrach ad bhruinn, agus béaraidh tú mac, agus do bhéara tú IOSA dainm air.
32 He will be great and will be called the Son of the Most High. The Lord God will give Him the throne of His father David,
Bíaidh se mór, agus goirfidhear Mac an té is Airde dhe: agus do bhéura an Tighearna Día caithír Dháibhí, athar féin dhó.
Agus bíaidh sé na righ ar thigh Iácob go bráth; agus ní bhía deireadh ar a ríoghachd. (aiōn g165)
34 “How can this be,” Mary asked the angel, “since I am a virgin?”
Agus a dubhairt Muire ris a naingeal, Cionnas bhías so, óir ní bhfuil fios fir agamsa?
35 The angel replied, “The Holy Spirit will come upon you, and the power of the Most High will overshadow you. So the Holy One to be born will be called the Son of God.
Agus ar bhfreagra do naingeal a dubhairt se ría, Tuirléonguidh an Spiorad Náomh ort, agus foiléochaidh cumhachda an té as Airde thú: uime sin an ní náomhtha bhéaras tú goirfighear Mac Dé dhe.
36 Look, even Elizabeth your relative has conceived a son in her old age, and she who was called barren is in her sixth month.
Agus, féuch, Elisabet do shiur, a tá sisi leis torrach air mhac ann a hárrsuigheachd: agus is sé so an seisiodh mí don mhnáoi úd, dá ngoirthear bean aimrid.
37 For no word from God will ever fail.”
Oír ní bhía ní ar bith doidhéunta do Dhia.
38 “I am the Lord’s servant,” Mary answered. “May it happen to me according to your word.” Then the angel left her.
Agus a dubhairt Muire, Féuch, banóglach an Tighearna; teagmhadh dhamhsa do réir do bhréithrisi. Agus do imthigh an taingeal úaithe.
39 In those days Mary got ready and hurried to a town in the hill country of Judah,
Agus an tan do éirigh Muire ann sna laéthibh sin, do chúaidh sí go dheíthneasach chois sléibhe, go cathraigh Iúda;
40 where she entered the home of Zechariah and greeted Elizabeth.
Agus do chúaidh sí a steach go tigh Shacharías, agus do bheannaigh si Délisabet.
41 When Elizabeth heard Mary’s greeting, the baby leaped in her womb, and Elizabeth was filled with the Holy Spirit.
Agus tarla, mar do chúalaidh Elisabet beannughadh Mhuire, gur bhíog an náoidheanán ann a broinn; agus do bhí Elisábet air na líonadh don Spiorad Naomh.
42 In a loud voice she exclaimed, “Blessed are you among women, and blessed is the fruit of your womb!
Agus do éigh sí do ghuth mhór, agus a dubhairt si, Is beannaighthe thú eidir na mnáibh, agus is beannaighthe toradh do bhronn,
43 And why am I so honored, that the mother of my Lord should come to me?
Agus cionnus do éirigh so dhamsa, go dtiocfadh matháir mo Thighearna féin chugam?
44 For as soon as the sound of your greeting reached my ears, the baby in my womb leaped for joy.
Oir, féueh, comhlúath is tháinic fúaim do bheannaighthe am chlúasaibh, do bhíog an náoidheanán lé gáirdeachus ann mo bhroinn.
45 Blessed is she who has believed that the Lord’s word to her will be fulfilled.”
Agus is beannaighthe au bhean do chreid: óir coimhlionfuidhear na neithe do gheall an Tighearna dhi.
46 Then Mary said: “My soul magnifies the Lord,
Agus a dubhairt Muire, Adhmolaidh manam an Tighearna,
47 and my spirit rejoices in God my Savior!
Agus do ní mo spiorad gáirdeachus a Ndía mó Shlánuightheóir.
48 For He has looked with favor on the humble state of His servant. From now on all generations will call me blessed.
Do bhrígh gur fhéuch sé ar úmhla a bhanóglaighe f é in: oír, féuch, ó so súas goirfid na huile chine beannuighthe dhíom.
49 For the Mighty One has done great things for me. Holy is His name.
Oir do rinne an té a tá cumhachdach neithe móra dhamhsa, agos is náomhtha a ainm.
50 His mercy extends to those who fear Him, from generation to generation.
Agus a tá a thrócaire ó dhíne go díne don dréim ar a bhfuil a eagla.
51 He has performed mighty deeds with His arm; He has scattered those who are proud in the thoughts of their hearts.
Do rinne sé gníomh láidir lé na láimh; do spréigh sé na dáoine úraibhreacha a smúaintighe a gcroidheadh féin.
52 He has brought down rulers from their thrones, but has exalted the humble.
Do tharruing sé na dáoine cumhachdacha as a gcaithiribh, agus do árduigh sé na dáoine umhla.
53 He has filled the hungry with good things, but has sent the rich away empty.
Do líon sé na dáoine ocracha lé, neithibh maithe; agus do chuir sé úadh na dáoine saidhbhre folumh.
54 He has helped His servant Israel, remembering to be merciful,
Do thóg sé súas Israél a shearbhfhoghantuidhe féin, do chuimhniughadh ar a thrócaire;
(Mar do labhair sé ré ar naith-reachuibh, Abraham, agus ré na shíol go bráth.) (aiōn g165)
56 Mary stayed with Elizabeth for about three months and then returned home.
Agus do fhan Muire na fochair timcheall thrí míos, agus do fhill sí dhá tigh féin.
57 When the time came for Elizabeth to have her child, she gave birth to a son.
Agus táinic ionbhuidh Elisabet ion ar mhídhid dhigh breath; agus rug sí mac.
58 Her neighbors and relatives heard that the Lord had shown her great mercy, and they rejoiced with her.
Agus do chúaladar a comharsain agus a dáoine gáoil, gur fhoillsigh an Tighearna a thrócaire mhór féin di; agus do rinneadar gáirdeachus má ráon ria.
59 On the eighth day, when they came to circumcise the child, they were going to name him after his father Zechariah.
Agus tárrla, go dtangadar air a nochdmhadh lá do chum go ndéanaídís an náoidhe do thimcheallghearrádh; agus do ghoireadar Sacharias de, do reir anma a athair.
60 But his mother replied, “No! He shall be called John.”
Achd ar bhfreagra dhá mháthair a dubhairt sí, Ni hámhluidh bhías; achd Eóin goirfidhear dhe.
61 They said to her, “There is no one among your relatives who bears this name.”
Agus a dubhradar ría, Ní bhfuil éannduine dod chineadh dá ngoirthear an tainmsi.
62 So they made signs to his father to find out what he wanted to name the child.
Agus do rinneadar comhartha dhá athair, créd an tainm bá mían leis do thabhairt air.
63 Zechariah asked for a tablet and wrote, “His name is John.” And they were all amazed.
Agus ar níarruidh cláir sgriobhtha dhosan, do sgríobh sé, ag rádh, Is Eóin is ainm dhó. Agus do ghabh iongantus íad uile.
64 Immediately Zechariah’s mouth was opened and his tongue was released, and he began to speak, praising God.
Agus ar an mball do hosgladh a bhéulsan, agus a theanga, agus do labhair sé, ag moladb Dé.
65 All their neighbors were filled with awe, and people throughout the hill country of Judea were talking about these events.
Agus do ghabh eagla a gcomharsuin uile: agus do haithriseadh na neithe so uile chois tsléibhe thíre Iúdaighe uile.
66 And all who heard this wondered in their hearts and asked, “What then will this child become?” For the Lord’s hand was with him.
Agus gach uile dhuine dhá gcúalaidh sin, do chuireadar a dtaisgidh an a gcroidhthibh féin iad, ag rádh, Créd é an sórt leinibh bhias so! Agus do bhí lámh an Tighearna maille ris.
67 Then his father Zechariah was filled with the Holy Spirit and prophesied:
Agus do bhí Sacharías athair, lán don Spíorad Náomh, agus do rinne sé faidheadóireachd ag rádh,
68 “Blessed be the Lord, the God of Israel, because He has visited and redeemed His people.
Go madh beannaighe au Tighearna Día Israel; ar son gur fhiosruigh sé agus gur fhúasgail sé a phobal féin,
69 He has raised up a horn of salvation for us in the house of His servant David,
Augs do thóg sé súas adharc na sláinte dhúinne a dtigh Dháibhi a shearbhfhoghantuidhe féin;
Do réir mar do labhair sé tré bhéul a fháidheadh náomhtha féin, do bhí ann ó thús an domáin: (aiōn g165)
71 salvation from our enemies and from the hand of all who hate us,
Ga gcuimhdéochadh sé sinn ó ar naimhdibh, agus ó láimh gach uile dhuine agá bhfuil fúath dhuinn;
72 to show mercy to our fathers and to remember His holy covenant,
Go ndéanadh sé trócaire air ar naithreachuibh, agus go gcuimbnéochadh sé a thiomna náomhtha féin;
73 the oath He swore to our father Abraham, to grant us
Agus ar an mionna lé a dtug sé móid Dábrahám ar nathairne, go dtiubhradh sé dhúinn,
74 deliverance from hostile hands, that we may serve Him without fear,
Go mbémís gan eagla air ar sáoradh ó láimh ar námhad do chum seirbhisi do déanamh dhó féin,
75 in holiness and righteousness before Him all the days of our lives.
A náomhthachd agus a bhfíréantacld na fhíadhnuisiséan, a laéthibh ar mbeatha uile.
76 And you, child, will be called a prophet of the Most High; for you will go on before the Lord to prepare the way for Him,
Agus tusa, a leinibh, goirfithear diot faídh an té as Airde: óir rachuidh tú roimh aghaidh an Thighearna dullmhughadh a shligheadh;
77 to give to His people the knowledge of salvation through the forgiveness of their sins,
Do thabhairt éolus na sláinte dá phobal tré mhaitheamhnus na bpeacadh,
78 because of the tender mercy of our God, by which the Dawn will visit us from on high,
Tré thrócaire ro mhóir ar Ndia féin; lér fhiosruigh sé sinn ag éirghe ón ionad árd,
79 to shine on those who live in darkness and in the shadow of death, to guide our feet into the path of peace.”
Do thabhairt soillsi don droing do bhí na suidhe a ndorchadas agus a sgáile an bháis, agus do dhíorghadh ar gcos a slighe na síothchána.
80 And the child grew and became strong in spirit; and he lived in the wilderness until the time of his public appearance to Israel.
Agus do fhás an leanabh, agus do neartuigheadh é a spíoruid, agus do bhí sé ar na fásuighibh go soithe an lá an ar fhoillsigh sé é féin Dísraél.
