Luke 1
1 Forasmuch as many have undertaken to draw up a relation concerning the matters fully believed among us,
prathamato ye saak. si. no vaakyapracaarakaa"scaasan te. asmaaka. m madhye yadyat sapramaa. na. m vaakyamarpayanti sma
2 as those who from the beginning were eye-witnesses of and attendants on the Word have delivered them to us,
tadanusaarato. anyepi bahavastadv. rttaanta. m racayitu. m prav. rttaa. h|
3 it has seemed good to me also, accurately acquainted from the origin with all things, to write to thee with method, most excellent Theophilus,
ataeva he mahaamahimathiyaphil tva. m yaa yaa. h kathaa a"sik. syathaastaasaa. m d. r.dhapramaa. naani yathaa praapno. si
4 that thou mightest know the certainty of those things in which thou hast been instructed.

5 There was in the days of Herod, the king of Judaea, a certain priest, by name Zacharias, of the course of Abia, and his wife of the daughters of Aaron, and her name Elizabeth.
yihuudaade"siiyaherodnaamake raajatva. m kurvvati abiiyayaajakasya paryyaayaadhikaarii sikhariyanaamaka eko yaajako haaro. nava. m"sodbhavaa ilii"sevaakhyaa
6 And they were both just before God, walking in all the commandments and ordinances of the Lord blameless.
tasya jaayaa dvaavimau nirdo. sau prabho. h sarvvaaj naa vyavasthaa"sca sa. mmanya ii"svarad. r.s. tau dhaarmmikaavaastaam|
7 And they had no child, because Elizabeth was barren, and they were both advanced in years.
tayo. h santaana ekopi naasiit, yata ilii"sevaa bandhyaa tau dvaaveva v. rddhaavabhavataam|
8 And it came to pass, as he fulfilled his priestly service before God in the order of his course,
yadaa svaparyyaanukrame. na sikhariya ii"svaasya samak. sa. m yaajakiiya. m karmma karoti
9 it fell to him by lot, according to the custom of the priesthood, to enter into the temple of the Lord to burn incense.
tadaa yaj nasya dinaparipaayyaa parame"svarasya mandire prave"sakaale dhuupajvaalana. m karmma tasya kara. niiyamaasiit|
10 And all the multitude of the people were praying without at the hour of incense.
taddhuupajvaalanakaale lokanivahe praarthanaa. m kartu. m bahisti. s.thati
11 And an angel of [the] Lord appeared to him, standing on the right of the altar of incense.
sati sikhariyo yasyaa. m vedyaa. m dhuupa. m jvaalayati taddak. si. napaar"sve parame"svarasya duuta eka upasthito dar"sana. m dadau|
12 And Zacharias was troubled, seeing [him], and fear fell upon him.
ta. m d. r.s. tvaa sikhariya udvivije "sa"sa"nke ca|
13 But the angel said to him, Fear not, Zacharias, because thy supplication has been heard, and thy wife Elizabeth shall bear thee a son, and thou shalt call his name John.
tadaa sa duutasta. m babhaa. se he sikhariya maa bhaistava praarthanaa graahyaa jaataa tava bhaaryyaa ilii"sevaa putra. m praso. syate tasya naama yohan iti kari. syasi|
14 And he shall be to thee joy and rejoicing, and many shall rejoice at his birth.
ki nca tva. m saananda. h sahar. sa"sca bhavi. syasi tasya janmani bahava aanandi. syanti ca|
15 For he shall be great before [the] Lord, and he shall drink no wine nor strong drink; and he shall be filled with [the] Holy Spirit, even from his mother's womb.

16 And many of the sons of Israel shall he turn to [the] Lord their God.
san israayelva. m"siiyaan anekaan prabho. h parame"svarasya maargamaane. syati|
17 And he shall go before him in [the] spirit and power of Elias, to turn hearts of fathers to children, and disobedient ones to [the] thoughts of just [men], to make ready for [the] Lord a prepared people.

18 And Zacharias said to the angel, How shall I know this, for I am an old man, and my wife advanced in years?
tadaa sikhariyo duutamavaadiit kathametad vetsyaami? yatoha. m v. rddho mama bhaaryyaa ca v. rddhaa|
19 And the angel answering, said to him, I am Gabriel, who stand before God, and I have been sent to speak to thee, and to bring these glad tidings to thee;
tato duuta. h pratyuvaaca pa"sye"svarasya saak. saadvarttii jibraayelnaamaa duutoha. m tvayaa saha kathaa. m gaditu. m tubhyamimaa. m "subhavaarttaa. m daatu nca pre. sita. h|
20 and behold, thou shalt be silent and not able to speak, till the day in which these things shall take place, because thou hast not believed my words, the which shall be fulfilled in their time.
kintu madiiya. m vaakya. m kaale phali. syati tat tvayaa na pratiitam ata. h kaara. naad yaavadeva taani na setsyanti taavat tva. m vaktu. mma"sakto muuko bhava|
21 And the people were awaiting Zacharias, and they wondered at his delaying in the temple.
tadaanii. m ye ye lokaa. h sikhariyamapaik. santa te madhyemandira. m tasya bahuvilambaad aa"scaryya. m menire|
22 But when he came out he could not speak to them, and they recognised that he had seen a vision in the temple. And he was making signs to them, and continued dumb.

23 And it came to pass, when the days of his service were completed, he departed to his house.
anantara. m tasya sevanaparyyaaye sampuur. ne sati sa nijageha. m jagaama|
24 Now after these days, Elizabeth his wife conceived, and hid herself five months, saying,
katipayadine. su gate. su tasya bhaaryyaa ilii"sevaa garbbhavatii babhuuva
25 Thus has [the] Lord done to me in [these] days in which he looked upon [me] to take away my reproach among men.

26 But in the sixth month, the angel Gabriel was sent of God to a city of Galilee, of which [the] name [was] Nazareth,
apara nca tasyaa garbbhasya. sa. s.the maase jaate gaaliilprade"siiyanaasaratpure
27 to a virgin betrothed to a man whose name [was] Joseph, of the house of David; and the virgin's name [was] Mary.
daayuudo va. m"siiyaaya yuu. saphnaamne puru. saaya yaa mariyamnaamakumaarii vaagdattaasiit tasyaa. h samiipa. m jibraayel duuta ii"svare. na prahita. h|
28 And the angel came in to her, and said, Hail, [thou] favoured one! the Lord [is] with thee: [blessed art thou amongst women].
sa gatvaa jagaada he ii"svaraanug. rhiitakanye tava "subha. m bhuuyaat prabhu. h parame"svarastava sahaayosti naarii. naa. m madhye tvameva dhanyaa|
29 But she, [seeing] [the angel], was troubled at his word, and reasoned in her mind what this salutation might be.
tadaanii. m saa ta. m d. r.s. tvaa tasya vaakyata udvijya kiid. r"sa. m bhaa. sa. namidam iti manasaa cintayaamaasa|
30 And the angel said to her, Fear not, Mary, for thou hast found favour with God;
tato duuto. avadat he mariyam bhaya. m maakaar. sii. h, tvayi parame"svarasyaanugrahosti|
31 and behold, thou shalt conceive in the womb and bear a son, and thou shalt call his name Jesus.
pa"sya tva. m garbbha. m dh. rtvaa putra. m praso. syase tasya naama yii"suriti kari. syasi|
32 He shall be great, and shall be called Son of [the] Highest; and [the] Lord God shall give him the throne of David his father;

33 and he shall reign over the house of Jacob for the ages, and of his kingdom there shall not be an end. (aiōn g165)
tathaa sa yaakuubo va. m"sopari sarvvadaa raajatva. m kari. syati, tasya raajatvasyaanto na bhavi. syati| (aiōn g165)
34 But Mary said to the angel, How shall this be, since I know not a man?
tadaa mariyam ta. m duuta. m babhaa. se naaha. m puru. sasa"nga. m karomi tarhi kathametat sambhavi. syati?
35 And the angel answering said to her, [The] Holy Spirit shall come upon thee, and power of [the] Highest overshadow thee, wherefore the holy thing also which shall be born shall be called Son of God.

36 And behold, Elizabeth, thy kinswoman, she also has conceived a son in her old age, and this is the sixth month to her that was called barren:
apara nca pa"sya tava j naatirilii"sevaa yaa. m sarvve bandhyaamavadan idaanii. m saa vaarddhakye santaanameka. m garbbhe. adhaarayat tasya. sa. s.thamaasobhuut|
37 for nothing shall be impossible with God.
kimapi karmma naasaadhyam ii"svarasya|
38 And Mary said, Behold the bondmaid of [the] Lord; be it to me according to thy word. And the angel departed from her.
tadaa mariyam jagaada, pa"sya prabheraha. m daasii mahya. m tava vaakyaanusaare. na sarvvametad gha. tataam; ananatara. m duutastasyaa. h samiipaat pratasthe|
39 And Mary, rising up in those days, went into the hill country with haste, to a city of Judah,
atha katipayadinaat para. m mariyam tasmaat parvvatamayaprade"siiyayihuudaayaa nagarameka. m "siighra. m gatvaa
40 and entered into the house of Zacharias, and saluted Elizabeth.
sikhariyayaajakasya g. rha. m pravi"sya tasya jaayaam ilii"sevaa. m sambodhyaavadat|
41 And it came to pass, as Elizabeth heard the salutation of Mary, the babe leaped in her womb; and Elizabeth was filled with [the] Holy Spirit,
tato mariyama. h sambodhanavaakye ilii"sevaayaa. h kar. nayo. h pravi. s.tamaatre sati tasyaa garbbhasthabaalako nanartta| tata ilii"sevaa pavitre. naatmanaa paripuur. naa satii
42 and cried out with a loud voice and said, Blessed [art] thou amongst women, and blessed the fruit of thy womb.
proccairgaditumaarebhe, yo. sitaa. m madhye tvameva dhanyaa, tava garbbhastha. h "si"su"sca dhanya. h|
43 And whence [is] this to me, that the mother of my Lord should come to me?
tva. m prabhormaataa, mama nive"sane tvayaa cara. naavarpitau, mamaadya saubhaagyametat|
44 For behold, as the voice of thy salutation sounded in my ears, the babe leaped with joy in my womb.
pa"sya tava vaakye mama kar. nayo. h pravi. s.tamaatre sati mamodarastha. h "si"suraanandaan nanartta|
45 And blessed [is] she that has believed, for there shall be a fulfilment of the things spoken to her from [the] Lord.
yaa strii vya"svasiit saa dhanyaa, yato hetostaa. m prati parame"svarokta. m vaakya. m sarvva. m siddha. m bhavi. syati|
46 And Mary said, My soul magnifies the Lord,
tadaanii. m mariyam jagaada| dhanyavaada. m pare"sasya karoti maamaka. m mana. h|
47 and my spirit has rejoiced in God my Saviour.
mamaatmaa taarake"se ca samullaasa. m pragacchati|
48 For he has looked upon the low estate of his bondmaid; for behold, from henceforth all generations shall call me blessed.
akarot sa prabhu rdu. s.ti. m svadaasyaa durgati. m prati| pa"syaadyaarabhya maa. m dhanyaa. m vak. syanti puru. saa. h sadaa|
49 For the Mighty One has done to me great things, and holy [is] his name;
ya. h sarvva"saktimaan yasya naamaapi ca pavitraka. m| sa eva sumahatkarmma k. rtavaan mannimittaka. m|
50 and his mercy [is] to generations and generations to them that fear him.
ye bibhyati janaastasmaat te. saa. m santaanapa. mkti. su| anukampaa tadiiyaa ca sarvvadaiva suti. s.thati|
51 He has wrought strength with his arm; he has scattered haughty [ones] in the thought of their heart.
svabaahubalatastena praakaa"syata paraakrama. h| mana. hkumantra. naasaarddha. m vikiiryyante. abhimaanina. h|
52 He has put down rulers from thrones, and exalted the lowly.

53 He has filled the hungry with good things, and sent away the rich empty.
k. sudhitaan maanavaan dravyairuttamai. h paritarpya sa. h| sakalaan dhanino lokaan vis. rjed riktahastakaan|
54 He has helped Israel his servant, in order to remember mercy,

56 And Mary abode with her about three months, and returned to her house.

57 But the time was fulfilled for Elizabeth that she should bring forth, and she gave birth to a son.
tadanantaram ilii"sevaayaa. h prasavakaala upasthite sati saa putra. m praaso. s.ta|
58 And her neighbours and kinsfolk heard that [the] Lord had magnified his mercy with her, and they rejoiced with her.

59 And it came to pass on the eighth day they came to circumcise the child, and they called it after the name of his father, Zacharias.
tathaa. s.tame dine te baalakasya tvaca. m chettum etya tasya pit. rnaamaanuruupa. m tannaama sikhariya iti karttumii. su. h|
60 And his mother answering said, No; but he shall be called John.
kintu tasya maataakathayat tanna, naamaasya yohan iti karttavyam|
61 And they said to her, There is no one among thy kinsfolk who is called by this name.
tadaa te vyaaharan tava va. m"samadhye naamed. r"sa. m kasyaapi naasti|
62 And they made signs to his father as to what he might wish it to be called.
tata. h para. m tasya pitara. m sikhariya. m prati sa"nketya papracchu. h "si"so. h ki. m naama kaari. syate?
63 And having asked for a writing-table, he wrote saying, John is his name. And they all wondered.

64 And his mouth was opened immediately, and his tongue, and he spake, blessing God.

65 And fear came upon all who dwelt round about them; and in the whole hill-country of Judaea all these things were the subject of conversation.

66 And all who heard them laid them up in their heart, saying, What then will this child be? And [the] Lord's hand was with him.
tasmaat "srotaaro mana. hsu sthaapayitvaa kathayaambabhuuvu. h kiid. r"soya. m baalo bhavi. syati? atha parame"svarastasya sahaayobhuut|
67 And Zacharias his father was filled with [the] Holy Spirit, and prophesied, saying,
tadaa yohana. h pitaa sikhariya. h pavitre. naatmanaa paripuur. na. h san etaad. r"sa. m bhavi. syadvaakya. m kathayaamaasa|
68 Blessed be [the] Lord the God of Israel, because he has visited and wrought redemption for his people,

69 and raised up a horn of deliverance for us in the house of David his servant;

70 as he spoke by [the] mouth of his holy prophets, who have been since the world began; (aiōn g165)

72 to fulfil mercy with our fathers and remember his holy covenant,

73 [the] oath which he swore to Abraham our father,
s. r.s. te. h prathamata. h sviiyai. h pavitrai rbhaavivaadibhi. h| (aiōn g165)
74 to give us, that, saved out of the hand of our enemies, we should serve him without fear

75 in piety and righteousness before him all our days.

76 And thou, child, shalt be called [the] prophet of [the] Highest; for thou shalt go before the face of [the] Lord to make ready his ways;
