Luke 2
1 But it came to pass in those days that a decree went out from Caesar Augustus, that a census should be made of all the habitable world.
Ho gv dw lo Dvbvyachoknv Agastas Roman mooku mvnwng gv nyi vdwa kika dubv vla amin lvkdubv kanam go namlin to.
2 The census itself first took place when Cyrenius had the government of Syria.
Vdwlo ritu rike bv nyi amin kiraplvkrap tokudw, ho Kuirinas Sairia gv gobunor bv rito.
3 And all went to be inscribed in the census roll, each to his own city:
Vbvrikunamv nyi mvnwngngv, atuatu gv nampum lo amin lvkdukubv vngnya toku.
4 and Joseph also went up from Galilee out of the city Nazareth to Judaea, to David's city, the which is called Bethlehem, because he was of the house and family of David,
Josep Najaret banggu Galili lokv Betlehem banggu gv Judia lo Dvbv Dabidnyi bvngku lo vngto ogulvgavbolo nw Dabid gv haalung lokv.
5 to be inscribed in the census roll with Mary who was betrothed to him [as his] wife, she being great with child.
Nw ninyigv nywng bv vla milvla mingak kunam Merinyi lvkobv amin lvkgap dubv vnggv toku. Meri hoka leit lo kuu gvtoku,
6 And it came to pass, while they were there, the days of her giving birth [to her child] were fulfilled,
okv vdwlo bunu Betlehem lo aalwk tokudw ho kuu anga bvnglin dw v aatoku.
7 and she brought forth her first-born son, and wrapped him up in swaddling-clothes and laid him in the manger, because there was no room for them in the inn.
Nw bvngtubvngke bv kuunyilo gubv bvnglinto, vji lo kvlap gvrila svv dvgianvnv dooku lo joopvto—hoka hotel lo bunugv lvgabv doojiku aronv karchung go dookumato.
8 And there were shepherds in that country abiding without, and keeping watch by night over their flock.
Ho gv mooku hoka svlar kaayanv vdwv rongolo ayu a yupram dvla, nwbunugv svlar am kaaya nyato.
9 And lo, an angel of [the] Lord was there by them, and [the] glory of [the] Lord shone around them, and they feared [with] great fear.
Ahtu gv nyidogindung go bunu gvlo daklwkto, okv Ahtu gv yunglit a bunugv aolo kaatamto. Bunu achialvbv busu nyatoku,
10 And the angel said to them, Fear not, for behold, I announce to you glad tidings of great joy, which shall be to all the people;
vbvritola nyidogindung ngv bunuam minto, “Busu mabvka! ngo soka nonugv lvgabv alvnv yunying nga aagvdu si nyi mvnwngnga kairungbv mvngpu more.
11 for to-day a Saviour has been born to you in David's city, who is Christ [the] Lord.
Soogv alu so Dabid gv banggulo nonua Ringnv nga dwrwboklin pvku—Hv Ahtu Kristo!
12 And this is the sign to you: ye shall find a babe wrapped in swaddling-clothes, and lying in a manger.
Okv so sum nonu vbv kaachin riku: Anga go vji kvlap tvla svv dvgianvnv dokv lo doodubv kaapare.”
13 And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host, praising God and saying,
Lamdadubv nyidomooku gv kainv nyidogindung vdwv achialvbv nyidogindung anga lvkobv kaarwksula Pwknvyarnvnyi hartvla mirimimpak minto:
14 Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good pleasure in men.
“Yunglit namv aoyachoknv nyidomooku lo doonv Pwknvyarnv gvbvkula, okv mvngpuv Sichingmooku so ninyigv mvnglwkbv rinv vdwlo doolwk laka!”
15 And it came to pass, as the angels departed from them into heaven, that the shepherds said to one another, Let us make our way then now as far as Bethlehem, and let us see this thing that is come to pass, which the Lord has made known to us.
Vdwlo nyidogindung vdwv bunu gvlokv vngro tokudw nyidomooku lo chaakor toku, Svlar kaayanv vdwv raamisito, “Klai ogugo ripvkudw Ahtu gv ngonua minpa kunam vdwsum kaadubv, ngonu Betlehem bv vnglaju.”
16 And they came with haste, and found both Mary and Joseph, and the babe lying in the manger;
Vkvlvgabv bunu baapubv vngla okv Meri nyila Josepnyi paato okv svv dokv arwnglo anga nga doodubv kaapa toku.
17 and having seen [it] they made known about the country the thing which had been said to them concerning this child.
Svlar kaayanv vdwv ninyia vdwlo kaato kudw bunu hoka anga gv lvkwng nga nyidogindung vdwv ogugo minpvkudw um bunua mintam jitoku.
18 And all who heard [it] wondered at the things said to them by the shepherds.
Svlar kaayanv vdwgv minama tvvpanv mvnwngngv lamdokpanya toku.
19 But Mary kept all these things [in her mind], pondering [them] in her heart.
So ogumvnwng sum Meri mvngapla okv soogv lvkwng nga rungrwngbv mvngtoku.
20 And the shepherds returned, glorifying and praising God for all things which they had heard and seen, as it had been said to them.
Svlar kaayanv vdwv bunu ogugo tvvpv kudw okv kaapv kudw ho lvkwngbv Pwknvyarnvnyi hartvla mirimimpak miyingla vngkur toku: nyidogindung gv bunua minam jvbv si ritoku.
21 And when eight days were fulfilled for circumcising him, his name was called Jesus, which was the name given by the angel before he had been conceived in the womb.
Alu kanw kochinglo, vdwlo anga nga ayakmvu dw ngv aatokudw, nyidogindung gv ninyia leit lo gvvmadwbv amin minama minla, ninyia Jisu vla amin mintoku.
22 And when the days were fulfilled for their purifying according to the law of Moses, they brought him to Jerusalem to present [him] to the Lord
Moses gv Pvbv gamki kolokv, Josep okv Meri bunyi kumkakjokak sidukubv dw ngv aatoku. Vkvlvgabv bunu anga nga Ahtu gvlo kumlwk dukubv vla Jerusalem lo aagv toku,
23 (as it is written in the law of [the] Lord: Every male that opens the womb shall be called holy to the Lord),
Ahtu gv Pvbv lo svbv lvkpvdu: “Kuunyilo bvngchonam dvdv nga Ahtu gvlo kumlwk jidubv.”
24 and to offer a sacrifice according to what is said in the law of [the] Lord: A pair of turtle doves, or two young pigeons.
Bunu kobutor vmalo taakw kwpa nvvnyi go erinpeelwk dubv bvnglayila vngto, hv Ahtu gv Pvbv lokv ribwngnam ridung ngv.
25 And behold, there was a man in Jerusalem whose name was Simeon; and this man was just and pious, awaiting the consolation of Israel, and [the] Holy Spirit was upon him.
Ho gv dw lo hoka nyi ako aminv Simeon Jerusalem lo doodung nvgo. Nw alvnvgo, Pwknvyarnvnyi busu nvgo okv nw Israel nyi vdwa ringlinbaalin nama kaayala doonvgo. Darwknv Dowv nw gvlo dooming gvto
26 And it was divinely communicated to him by the Holy Spirit, that he should not see death before he should see [the] Lord's Christ.
okv ninyia milv jito nw vdwloka sicho mare Ahtu gv milv kunam Kristonyi nw kaama dvdvlo.
27 And he came in the Spirit into the temple; and as the parents brought in the child Jesus that they might do for him according to the custom of the law,
Darwknv Dow gv riku lokv, Simeon Pwknvyarnvnaam bv vngto. Vdwlo Anvabuv anga Jisunyi Pwknvyarnvnaam lo Pvbv gv rise nga ridubv vla aagv tokudw,
28 he received him into his arms, and blessed God, and said,
Simeon anga nga naala ninyigv laaklo joobwng gvrila Pwknvyarnvnyi umbonyikv vto:
29 Lord, now thou lettest thy bondman go, according to thy word, in peace;
“Vjak, Ahtu, no vvpvrungdo noogv milv nama, okv no noogv nyira nga sarsopoyo bv vngmu riku.
30 for mine eyes have seen thy salvation,
Ngoogv nyik lokv ngo noogv ringlinbaalin nama kaatokubv,
31 which thou hast prepared before the face of all peoples;

32 a light for revelation of [the] Gentiles and [the] glory of thy people Israel.
Noogv mvngnama Jentail vdwa loung bv kaatam svnga okv noogv Israel nyi vdwlo yungnam gobv naalwk jise nga.”
33 And his father and mother wondered at the things which were said concerning him.
Ninyigv lvkwngbv Simeon gv minama anga gv anv okv abuv tvvtokula mvngngak patoku.
34 And Simeon blessed them, and said to Mary his mother, Lo, this [child] is set for the fall and rising up of many in Israel, and for a sign spoken against;
Simeon bunuam boktalwkji toku okv ninyigv Anv, Merinyi minto, “So vmi anga si Pwknvyarnv gv gaknamgo mvyaknam lvgabv okv Israel lo awgo turnama paakunam lvgabv. Nw Pwknvyarnv gvlokv kachinnam gubv rire ho awgo nyi v ninyia minyingre.
35 (and even a sword shall go through thine own soul; ) so that [the] thoughts may be revealed from many hearts.
Okv vbvrila kaatamre bunugv mvngsila mvngnama. Okv mvngdwkkv, noogv atubogv haapok am rioktung ripunv ako nwkko sunam aingbv rire.”
36 And there was a prophetess, Anna, daughter of Phanuel, of [the] tribe of Asher, who was far advanced in years, having lived with [her] husband seven years from her virginity,
Ho hoka nyimv nyijwk ako dooto, hv hvngmi go aminv Anna, Paanuel gv kuunyijar Asher haalung lokv. Nw anying kanw go nyilo doogvla dootokula okv vjak nw anying chaampinw gula nyingpi loku ongubv ritoku. Nw Pwknvyarnvnaam a vdwloka vngyu mato; aluayu bv nw Pwknvyarnvnyi kumlajola okv yikla dooto.
37 and herself a widow up to eighty-four years; who did not depart from the temple, serving night and day with fastings and prayers;
38 and she coming up the same hour gave praise to the Lord, and spoke of him to all those who waited for redemption in Jerusalem.
Ho dw akin hoka nw aalwkto okv Pwknvyarnvnyi umbonyikv hvto okv yvvbunudw Jerusalem um vdwlo ringtv dunvdw um Pwknvyarnv gvlo kaayala doonv vdwgv apumlo vmi anga agv lvkwng nga mintoku.
39 And when they had completed all things according to the law of [the] Lord, they returned to Galilee to their own city Nazareth.
Vdwlo Josep la Meri Ahtu gv Pvbv gv minam rise nga rinya tokudw, bunyi Galili gv banggu Najaret bunugv naamlo akur toku.
40 And the child grew and waxed strong [in spirit], filled with wisdom, and God's grace was upon him.
Vmi hv okv gwlwk nvgobv singchato; nw chingkipakok nvgobv, okv Pwknvyarnv gv boktalwkji namv nw gvlo doomin gvto.
41 And his parents went yearly to Jerusalem at the feast of the passover.
Anying dwkibv Jisu gv Anvabu hv Jerusalem bv vngkito vngbo dvmin pumja lvgabv.
42 And when he was twelve years old, and they went up [to Jerusalem] according to the custom of the feast
Vdwlo Jisu anying nyingring gula nyingnyi tokudw, bunu pumja vngbwng nga vngto.
43 and had completed the days, as they returned, the boy Jesus remained behind in Jerusalem, and his parents knew not [of it];
Vdwlo dvbamnam pumja ngv rinya tokudw, bunu naam bv vngkur raptoku, vbvritola vmi Jisu Jerusalem lo doolwkto. Hum nw gv anvabuv chimato;
44 but, supposing him to be in the company that journeyed together, they went a day's journey, and sought him among their relations and acquaintances:

45 and not having found him they returned to Jerusalem seeking him.
Bunu nw am mapa kumato, vkvlvgabv bunu ninyia makarla Jerusalem lo vngkur toku.
46 And it came to pass, after three days they found him in the temple, sitting in the midst of the teachers and hearing them and asking them questions.
Alu loum nvnvlo bunu ninyia Pwknvyarnvnaam lo Jius tamsarnv vdwa lvkobv, bunuam tvvriala okv tvunamgo tvvkala doodubv kaapa toku.
47 And all who heard him were astonished at his understanding and answers.
Nw gv chingkipakok rungbv mirwk sinam a tvvnv vdwv mvngngakpanya toku.
48 And when they saw him they were amazed: and his mother said to him, Child, why hast thou dealt thus with us? behold, thy father and I have sought thee distressed.
Ninyigv anvabu v mvngngakpala mvngto vdwlo ninyia kaapa tokudw, okv ninyigv anv ninyia minto, “Ngoogv Kuunyilo no ogubv svbv ngonua ridunv? Noogv abu okv ngo achialvbv mvngdwkla nam mapadubv vla rikar dunv laka.”
49 And he said to them, Why [is it] that ye have sought me? did ye not know that I ought to be [occupied] in my Father's business?
Nw bunua mirwkto, “Nonu ogubv ngam makar dunv? Ngo Abu gv naam lo doojinv um nonu chima dunvre?”
50 And they understood not the thing that he said to them.
Vbvritola bunu ninyigv mirwknam a chimato.
51 And he went down with them and came to Nazareth, and he was in subjection to them. And his mother kept all these things in her heart.
Vkvlvgabv Jisu bunua lvkobv Najaret lo vngkur toku, hoka ho nw bunugv mvnglwkbv ritoku. Ninyigv anv ngv ninyigv vbvrinam mvnwng nga haapoklo mvnggapla vvpv toku.
52 And Jesus advanced in wisdom and stature, and in favour with God and men.
