Luke 2
1 And it came to passe in those dayes, that there came a decree from Augustus Cesar, that all the world should be taxed.
Majuwa galii, Kaisari Agustinu mfalumi gwa Rumi kabweriti kulagalira, wantu woseri wa Iushi loseri la Rumi wawalangwi.
2 (This first taxing was made when Cyrenius was gouernour of Syria.)
Kuwawalanga aku ndo kuweriti kwa kwanja shipindi Kureniu pakaweriti mkulu gwa mukowa gwa Siriya.
3 Therefore went all to be taxed, euery man to his owne Citie.
Su kila muntu kagenditi kulembwa litawu lyakuwi muisi mwakuwi.
4 And Ioseph also went vp from Galile out of a citie called Nazareth, into Iudea, vnto the citie of Dauid, which is called Beth-leem (because he was of the house and linage of Dauid, )
Viraa Yosefu kaweriti na mwanja gwa kulawa Nazareti mumkowa gwa Galilaya, kagenditi muisi ya Betirehemu mumkowa gwa Yudeya pakayiwukiti Dawudi. Yosefu kagenditi kulii toziya kalawiti mushiyuwuku sha Dawudi.
5 To bee taxed with Marie that was giuen him to wife, which was with childe.
Kagenditi kulii wakalembwi pamuhera na Mariya muheta gwakuwi, yakaweriti na yinda.
6 And so it was, that while they were there, the daies were accomplished that shee shoulde be deliuered,
Pawaweriti kulii Betirehemu, shipindi sha Mariya sha kwiwura mwana shisokiti.
7 And she brought foorth her first begotten sonne, and wrapped him in swadling clothes, and laide him in a cratch, because there was no roome for them in the ynne.
Kamwiwula mwana gwakuwi gwa kwanja mpalu, kamgubikila nguwu na wamgonjeka muliboma lya wang'ombi, toziya womberi wapatiti ndiri pakugonja kunumba ya wahenga.
8 And there were in the same countrey shepheards, abiding in the fielde, and keeping watch by night ouer their flocke.
Kuweriti na walolera wa mifugu, yawaweriti kuntundu pashiru wankulolera mifugu yawu.
9 And loe, the Angel of the Lord came vpon them, and the glorie of the Lord shone about them, and they were sore afraide.
Ntumintumi gwa kumpindi gwa Mtuwa kawalawariti walolera wa mifugu na ukwisa wa Mtuwa guwalangaziya. Womberi watiliti nentu,
10 Then the Angel saide vnto them, Be not afraid: for behold, I bring you glad tidings of great ioy, that shalbe to all the people,
kumbiti ntumintumi gwa kumpindi kawagambira, “Namtira! Neni nuwajegerani shisoweru shiwagira, shisoweru ashi hashiwajegeli wantu woseri wanemeleri nentu.
11 That is, that vnto you is borne this day in the citie of Dauid, a Sauiour, which is Christ the Lord.
Leru muisi ya Mfalumi Dawudi kiwuka Mlopoziya gwenu. Mweni ayu ndo Kristu Mtuwa!
12 And this shalbe a signe to you, Yee shall finde the babe swadled, and laid in a cratch.
Ayi haliweri lilangaliru kwa mwenga, pamusoka kala palii hamumwoni nonu wamgubikira vinguwu vya shiwana wamgonjeka muliboma la wang'ombi.”
13 And straightway there was with the Angel a multitude of heauenly souldiers, praising God, and saying,
Palaa palii wantumintumi wamonga wa kumpindi wavuwa nentu, waliwoniti pamuhera wamkwisiti Mlungu, pawalonga,
14 Glory be to God in the high heauens, and peace in earth, and towards men good will.
“Ukwisa uweri kwa Mlungu kumpindi nentu, na ponga iweri pasipanu kwa wantu yawamfira Mlungu!”
15 And it came to passe whe the Angels were gone away from them into heauen, that the shepheards sayde one to another, Let vs goe then vnto Beth-leem, and see this thing that is come to passe which the Lord hath shewed vnto vs.
Wantumintumi wa kumpindi pawawukiti kala kuwuya kumpindi kwa Mlungu, walolera wa mifugu wanja kuligambira weni, “Vinu su tugendeni Betirehemu na kulola shintu shashitendikiti, shakatugambiriti Mtuwa.”
16 So they came with haste, and founde both Marie and Ioseph, and the babe laid in the cratch.
Su wawuka wagenda kanongola, pawasokiti palii wawawona Mariya na Yosefu na nonu ulii wamgonjeka muliboma la wang'ombi.
17 And when they had seene it, they published abroade the thing, that was tolde them of that childe.
Walolera wa mifugu pawamwoniti kala nonu ulii, su wanja kutakula ntambu yawapikaniriti kulawa kwa ntumintumi gwa kumpindi kuusu nonu ayu.
18 And all that heard it, wondred at ye things which were tolde them of the shepheards.
Muntu yoseri yakapikaniriti hangu kashyeniti visoweru vyawatakuliti walolera wa mifugu.
19 But Mary kept all those sayings, and pondred them in her heart.
Mariya kavituliti vintu vyoseri avi mumoyu mwakuwi na kavihola mana yakuwi.
20 And the shepheardes returned glorifiyng and praising God, for all that they had heard and seene as it was spoken vnto them.
Walolera wa mifugu wawuyiti pawayimba kwa kumkwisa Mlungu ntambu yawapikaniriti na yawawoniti, iwera ntambu iraa ilii yawapikaniriti kulawa kwa ntumintumi gwa kumpindi.
21 And when the eight daies were accomplished, that they shoulde circumcise the childe, his name was then called Iesus, which was named of the Angell, before he was conceiued in the wombe.
Palisokiti lishaka lya nani, shipindi sha kumwingiziya mwana jandu, wampananiti litawu Yesu, litawu lyeni ali ntumintumi gwa kumpindi kamupananiti kala Mariya pakaweriti ndiri na yinda.
22 And when the daies of her purification after the Lawe of Moses were accomplished, they brought him to Hierusalem, to present him to the Lord,
Pashisokiti shipindi sha msambu gwa kupungwa kwawu Mariya na Yosefu hangu ndo ifiriwitwi mumalagaliru ga Musa, wamtola mwana wagenda nayu Yerusalemu wamtulili Mtuwa,
23 (As it is written in the Lawe of the Lord, Euery man childe that first openeth ye wombe, shalbe called holy to the Lord)
ntambu yayilembitwi mumalagaliru ga Mtuwa, “Kila mwana gwa kwanja mpalu kafiruwa kutulwa kaweri mnanagala kwa Mtuwa.”
24 And to giue an oblation, as it is commanded in the Lawe of the Lord, a paire of turtle doues, or two yong pigeons.
Viraa virii wagenditi su walaviyi tambiku ya wankunda wawili ama wana wawili wa teteli, ntambu yayifiruwitwi mulilagaliru ga Mtuwa.
25 And behold, there was a man in Hierusalem, whose name was Simeon: this man was iust, and feared God, and waited for the consolation of Israel, and the holy Ghost was vpon him.
Shipindi shiraa shilii kuweriti na muntu yumu yawamshema Simoni yakalikaliti Yerusalemu. Kaweriti muntu kaherepa, muntu yakamfiriziya Mlungu na kaweriti kankulolera kulopoziwa kwa wantu wa Israeli. Rohu Mnanagala kaweriti pamuhera na yomberi,
26 And it was declared to him from God by the holy Ghost, that he shoulde not see death, before he had seene that Anointed of the Lord.
na Rohu Mnanagala kamgambiriti kala Simiyoni kulonga hapeni kahowi mpaka kamwoni Kristu yakasyagulitwi na Mtuwa.
27 And he came by the motion of the spirit into the Temple, and when the parents brought in the babe Iesus, to do for him after the custome of the Lawe,
Su Rohu Mnangala kamlonguziyiti Simiyoni kwingira Mnumba nkulu ya Mlungu. Na palii mawu na tati gwa Yesu wamjegiti Yesu Mnumba nkulu ya Mlungu wamtenderi ntambu yayifiruwitwi mulilagaliru,
28 Then hee tooke him in his armes, and praised God, and sayd,
Simiyoni kamwanka mwana mumawoku mwakuwi na kamkwisa Mlungu pakalonga,
29 Lord, nowe lettest thou thy seruaunt depart in peace, according to thy woorde,
“Vinu Mtuwa guweza kumlekeziya ntumintumi gwaku kagendi kwa ponga, toziya gugatimiza galii gagulagaliriti.
30 For mine eyes haue seene thy saluation,
Masu gangu gawona ulopoziya waku,
31 Which thou hast prepared before the face of all people,
wawutandiritwi palongolu pa wantu woseri.
32 A light to be reueiled to the Gentiles, and the glory of thy people Israel.
Ulangala hawuwalangaziyi njira wantu wawawera ndiri Wayawudi na hawujegi ukwisa kwa wantu waku Israeli.”
33 And Ioseph and his mother marueiled at those things, which were spoken touching him.
Tati na mawu gwa mwana walikangashiti nentu ntambu yakatakuliti Simiyoni kuusu mwana gwawu.
34 And Simeon blessed them, and saide vnto Mary his mother, Beholde, this childe is appointed for the fall and rising againe of many in Israel, and for a signe which shalbe spoken against,
Simoni kawatekelera, kamgambira Mariya mawu gwa Yesu, “Mwana ayu kasyagulitwi na Mlungu toziya ya kwagamira na kulopoziwa kwa wantu wavuwa Muisraeli. Nayomberi hakaweri lilangaliru kulawa kwa Mlungu kumbiti wantu wavuwa hawamtakuli vidoda,
35 (Yea and a sworde shall pearce through thy soule) that the thoughts of many heartes may be opened.
na virii vyawalihola wantu mumyoyu mwawu ndo havimaniki. Na gwenga Mariya utama hawuweri gambira mgoha gwagusongoka, haguwusomi moyu gwaku.”
36 And there was a Prophetesse, one Anna the daughter of Phanuel, of the tribe of Aser, which was of a great age, after she had liued with an husband seuen yeeres from her virginitie:
Palii kuweriti na mdala mbuyi gwa Mlungu, litawu lyakuwi Ana, mwana gwa Fanueli gwa likabila la Asheri.
37 And she was widowe about foure score and foure yeeres, and went not out of the Temple, but serued God with fastings and prayers, night and day.
Shakapanu kasigaliti mkenja mpaka shipindi pakiwiti mgogolu gwa vinja malongu matatu na msheshi. Shipindi shoseri ashi kalikaliti Munumba nkulu ya Mlungu pakaleka kuliya na pakamluwa Mlungu pashiru na paliwala.
38 She then coming at the same instant vpon them, confessed likewise the Lord, and spake of him to all that looked for redemption in Hierusalem.
Shipindi shila shilii, Ana kiziti na kulonga mayagashii Mlungu na katakuliti visoweru vya mwana kwa wantu woseri wawaweriti wankumuhepera Mlungu kwa kukombolwa kwa Yerusalemu.
39 And when they had performed all thinges according to the lawe of the Lord, they returned into Galile to their owne citie Nazareth.
Maliya na Yosefu pawatenditi kala vyoseri ntambu yanfiruwitwi mulilagaliru ga Mtuwa, su wawuyiti ukaya kwawu Nazareti muisi ya Galilaya.
40 And the childe grewe, and waxed strong in Spirit, and was filled with wisedome, and the grace of God was with him.
Mwana kakula kawera na makakala, su kawera na luhala na Mlungu kamtekelera.
41 Nowe his parents went to Hierusalem euery yeere, at the feast of the Passeouer.
Kila mvinja mawu na tati gwa Yesu wagendaga Yerusalemu mumsambu gwa Pasaka.
42 And when hee was twelue yeere olde, and they were come vp to Hierusalem, after the custome of the feast,
Yesu pakaweriti na vinja lilongu na miwili, wagenditi nayu mumsambu ntambu yayiweriti shitiba.
43 And had finished the dayes thereof, as they returned, the childe Iesus remained in Hierusalem, and Ioseph knew not, nor his mother,
Paguperiti kala msambu gwa Pasaka, wanjiti mwanja gwa kuwuya ukaya, kumbiti Yesu kasigaliti kulaa Kuyerusalemu pota mawu na tati gwakuwi kuvimana.
44 But they supposing, that he had bene in the company, went a dayes iourney, and sought him among their kinsfolke, and acquaintance.
Womberi wavimana Yesu kapamuhera na wantu wa mwanja, wagendagenda lishaka lyoseri, shakapanu wanja kumsakula mwa walongu na waganja wawu.
45 And when they found him not, they turned backe to Hierusalem, and sought him.
Wamwona ndiri, su wawuyiti Yerusalemu pawamsakula.
46 And it came to passe three dayes after, that they found him in the Temple, sitting in the mids of the doctours, both hearing them, and asking them questions:
Lishaka lya tatu wamwoniti Mnumba nkulu ya Mlungu, kalikaliti pamuhera na wafunda wa Mayawudi, kaweriti pakawapikinira na kuwakosiya.
47 And all that heard him, were astonied at his vnderstanding and answeres.
Woseri pawampikaniriti vyakatakula, waweriti wankulikangasha ntambu yakeniti mahala na ntambu yakankuliti kwa luhala.
48 So when they sawe him, they were amased, and his mother said vnto him, Sonne, why hast thou thus dealt with vs? beholde, thy father and I haue sought thee with very heauie hearts.
Mawu na tati gwakuwi pawamwoniti washeniti. Maliya, mawu gwakuwi, kamkosiya, “Mwana gwenga, ashi gututenda ntambu ayi? Neni na tati gwaku tuweriti twankulishera patukusakula.”
49 Then said he vnto them, Howe is it that ye sought me? knewe ye not that I must goe about my Fathers busines?
Yesu kawankula, “Ntambu gaa mwankunsakula? Muvimana ndiri handa nfiruwa nulikali mnumba mwa Tati gwangu?”
50 But they vnderstoode not the word that he spake to them.
Kumbiti tati na mawu gwakuwi wavimana ndiri vyakawankuliti.
51 Then hee went downe with them, and came to Nazareth, and was subiect to them: and his mother kept all these sayings in her heart.
Yesu pakawuyiti pamuhera na mawu na tati gwakuwi Kunazareti, kendereyiti kuwajimira. Mawu gwakuwi kendeleyiti kulihola mmoyu mwakuwi.
52 And Iesus increased in wisedome, and stature, and in fauour with God and men.
Yesu kendereyiti kukula munshimba pamuhera na luhala na kumfiliziya Mlungu pamuhera na wantu.
