Luke 1
1 Forasmuch as many haue taken in hand to set foorth the storie of those things, whereof we are fully persuaded,
Satria maro no efa nanoratra nandahatra tantara ny amin’ ny zavatra izay efa tanteraka tamintsika tokoa,
2 As they haue deliuered them vnto vs, which from the beginning saw them their selues, and were ministers of ye word,
araka izay efa noraisintsika natolotry ny vavolombelona izay sady nahita maso no efa mpitory ny teny hatramin’ ny voalohany:
3 It seemed good also to me (most noble Theophilus) assoone as I had searched out perfectly all things from the beginning, to write vnto thee thereof from point to point,
dia sitrako koa, rehefa nofotorako tsara ny zavatra rehetra hatramin’ ny niandohany, ny hanoratra izany aminao araka ny filaharany, ry Teofilo tsara indrindra,
4 That thou mightest acknowledge the certaintie of those things, whereof thou hast bene instructed.
mba hahafantaranao tsara fa mafy orina ny teny izay nampianarina anao.
5 In the time of Herod King of Iudea, there was a certaine Priest named Zacharias, of the course of Abia: and his wife was of the daughters of Aaron, and her name was Elisabet.
Tamin’ ny andron’ i Heroda, mpanjakan’ i Jodia, nisy mpisorona anankiray atao hoe Zakaria, isan’ ny antokon’ i Abia; ary ny vadiny dia avy tamin’ ny taranak’ i Arona, Elizabeta no anarany.
6 Both were iust before God, and walked in all the commandements and ordinances of the Lord, without reproofe.
Ary samy marina teo anatrehan’ Andriamanitra izy mivady sady nitondra tena tsy nanan-tsiny araka ny didy sy ny fitsipika rehetra nomen’ ny Tompo.
7 And they had no childe, because that Elisabet was barren: and both were well stricken in age.
Ary tsy nanan-janaka izy, fa momba Elizabeta; ary samy efa antitra izy mivady.
8 And it came to passe, as he executed the Priestes office before God, as his course came in order,
Ary nony nanao raharaham-pisoronana teo anatrehan’ Andriamanitra Zakaria araka ny fifandimbiasan’ ny antokony,
9 According to the custome of the Priests office, his lot was to burne incense, when he went into the Temple of the Lord.
araka ny fanao amin’ ny fisoronana, dia anjarany araka ny filokana ny hiditra ao amin’ ny tempolin’ ny Tompo ka handoro ditin-kazo manitra.
10 And the whole multitude of the people were without in prayer, while the incense was burning.
Ary ny vahoaka rehetra nitoetra teo ivelany nivavaka tamin’ ny ora fandoroana ny ditin-kazo manitra.
11 Then appeared vnto him an Angel of the Lord standing at the right side of the altar of incense.
Ary nisy anjelin’ ny Tompo niseho taminy teo ankavanan’ ny alitara fandoroana ny ditin-kazo manitra.
12 And when Zacharias sawe him, he was troubled, and feare fell vpon him.
Ary nony nahita azy Zakaria, dia taitra loatra izy ka raiki-tahotra.
13 But the Angel saide vnto him, Feare not, Zacharias: for thy prayer is heard, and thy wise Elisabet shall beare thee a sonne, and thou shalt call his name Iohn.
Fa hoy ilay anjely taminy: Aza matahotra, ry Zakaria; fa efa nohenoina ny fangatahanao, ka Elizabeta vadinao dia hiteraka zazalahy aminao, ary Jaona no hataonao anarany.
14 And thou shalt haue ioy and gladnes, and many shall reioyce at his birth.
Ary ho faly sy ho ravoravo ianao; ary maro no hifaly amin’ ny hahaterahany.
15 For he shalbe great in the sight of the Lord, and shall neither drinke wine, nor strong drinke: and he shalbe filled with the holy Ghost, euen from his mothers wombe.
Fa ho lehibe eo anatrehan’ ny Tompo izy ary tsy hisotro divay na toaka sady hofenoina ny Fanahy Masìna hatrany an-kibon-dreniny aza.
16 And many of the children of Israel shall he turne to their Lord God.
Ary maro amin’ ny Zanak’ isiraely no hampodiny amin’ i Jehovah Andriamaniny.
17 For he shall goe before him in the spirite and power of Elias, to turne the hearts of the fathers to the children, and the disobedient to the wisedome of the iust men, to make ready a people prepared for the Lord.
Ary izy handeha eo alohany amin’ ny fanahy sy ny herin’ i Elia mba hampody ny fon’ ny ray ho amin’ ny zanaka, ary ny tsy manoa ho amin’ ny fahendren’ ny marina, hamboatra firenena voaomana ho an’ ny Tempo.
18 Then Zacharias said vnto ye Angel, Whereby shall I knowe this? for I am an olde man, and my wife is of a great age.
Ary hoy Zakaria tamin’ ilay anjely: Inona no hahafantarako izany? fa izaho efa antitra, ary efa antitra koa ny vadiko.
19 And the Angell answered, and sayde vnto him, I am Gabriel that stand in the presence of God, and am sent to speake vnto thee, and to shew thee these good tidings.
Ary ilay anjely namaly ka nanao taminy hoe: Izaho no Gabriela, izay mitsangana eo anatrehan’ Andriamanitra; ary nirahina hiteny aminao aho ka hilaza aminao izany teny mahafaly izany.
20 And beholde, thou shalt be domme, and not be able to speake, vntill the day that these things be done, because thou beleeuedst not my words, which shalbe fulfilled in their season.
Koa, indro, ho moana ianao ka tsy hahay miteny ambara-pahatongan’ ny andro hisehoan’ izany zavatra izany, ho valin’ ny tsy ninoanao ny teniko, izay ho tanteraka amin’ ny fotoany.
21 Now the people waited for Zacharias, and marueiled that he taried so long in the Temple.
Ary ny olona dia niandry an’ i Zakaria ka gaga noho izy naharitra ela tao amin’ ny tempoly.
22 And when hee came out, hee coulde not speake vnto them: then they perceiued that hee had seene a vision in the Temple: For he made signes vnto them, and remained domme.
Kanjo rehefa nivoaka izy, dia tsy nahay niteny taminy; ary dia fantatry ny olona fa efa nahita fahitana tao amin’ ny tempoly izy; ary izy nanao baikon’ ny moana taminy, ary dia mbola moana ihany.
23 And it came to passe, when the daies of his office were fulfilled, that he departed to his owne house.
Ary rehefa tapitra ny andro nanaovany fanompoam-pivavahana, dia lasa nody tany an-tranony izy.
24 And after those daies, his wife Elisabet conceiued, and hid her selfe fiue moneths, saying,
Ary taorian’ izany andro izany dia nitoe-jaza Elizabeta vadiny, dia niery dimy volana izy ka nanao hoe:
25 Thus hath the Lord dealt with me, in the daies wherein he looked on me, to take from me my rebuke among men.
Izao no nataon’ ny Tompo tamiko tamin’ ny andro izay nitsinjovany hahafa-tondromaso ahy amin’ ny olona.
26 And in the sixth moneth, the Angell Gabriel was sent from God vnto a citie of Galile, named Nazareth,
Ary tamin’ ny fahenim-bolana dia nirahin’ Andriamanitra ny anjely Gabriela ho any an-tanàna anankiray any Galilia atao hoe Nazareta,
27 To a virgin affianced to a man whose name was Ioseph, of the house of Dauid, and the virgins name was Marie.
ho any amin’ ny virijina anankiray, izay voafofo ho vadin’ ny lehilahy atao hoe Josefa, avy tamin’ ny taranak’ i Davida; ary ny anaran’ ny virijina dia Maria.
28 And the Angel went in vnto her, and said, Haile thou that art freely beloued: the Lord is with thee: blessed art thou among women.
Ary nony niditra tao aminy ilay anjely, dia nanao hoe: Arahaba, ry ilay nohasoavina, ny Tompo momba anao.
29 And when she saw him, she was troubled at his saying, and thought what maner of salutation that should be.
Ary taitra loatra izy noho ny teniny ka nieritreritra izay tokony ho hevitr’ izany fiarahabana izany.
30 Then the Angel saide vnto her, Feare not, Marie: for thou hast found fauour with God.
Ary hoy ilay anjely taminy: Aza matahotra, ry Maria, fa efa nahita fitia tamin’ Andriamanitra ianao.
31 For loe, thou shalt conceiue in thy wobe, and beare a sonne, and shalt call his name Iesus.
Ary, indro, hitoe-jaza ianao ka hiteraka zazalahy, ary ny anarany dia hataonao hoe Jesosy.
32 He shall be great, and shall be called the Sonne of the most High, and the Lord God shall giue vnto him the throne of his father Dauid.
Izy ho lehibe ka hatao hoe Zanaky ny Avo Indrindra; ary Jehovah Andriamanitra hanome Azy ny seza fiandrianan’ i Davida rainy;
33 And hee shall reigne ouer the house of Iacob for euer, and of his kingdome shall bee none ende. (aiōn g165)
ary hanjaka amin’ ny taranak’ i Jakoba mandrakizay Izy; ary ny fanjakany tsy hanam-pahataperana. (aiōn g165)
34 Then sayde Marie vnto the Angel, How shall this be, seeing I knowe not man?
Ary hoy Maria tamin’ ilay anjely: Hanao ahoana re no hahatanteraka izany, fa tsy mahalala lahy aho?
35 And the Angel answered, and said vnto her, The holy Ghost shall come vpon thee, and the power of the most High shall ouershadowe thee: therefore also that holy thing which shall bee borne of thee, shall be called the Sonne of God.
Ary ilay anjely namaly ka nanao taminy hoe: Ny Fanahy Masìna ho tonga ao aminao, ary hisy herin’ ny Avo Indrindra hanaloka anao; koa ny Masìna Izay hateraka dia hatao hoe Zanak’ Andriamanitra.
36 And behold, thy cousin Elisabet, she hath also conceiued a sonne in her olde age: and this is her sixt moneth, which was called barren.
Ary, indro, Elizabeta havanao dia efa mitoe-jaza koa, na dia efa antitra aza; ary efa mandray enina izy izao, izay natao hoe momba.
37 For with God shall nothing be vnpossible.
Fa tsy hisy tsy ho tanteraka ny teny rehetra ataon’ Andriamanitra.
38 Then Marie said, Behold the seruant of the Lord: be it vnto me according to thy woorde. So the Angel departed from her.
Dia hoy Maria: Inty ny ankizivavin’ ny Tompo; aoka anie ho tonga amiko araka ny teninao. Dia nandao azy ilay anjely.
39 And Marie arose in those daies, and went into ye hil countrey with hast to a citie of Iuda,
Ary Maria niainga tamin’ izany andro izany ka nandeha faingana ho any amin’ ny tany havoana, ho ao an-tanàna anankiray any Joda;
40 And entred into the house of Zacharias, and saluted Elisabet.
ary niditra tao an-tranon’ i Zakaria izy ka niarahaba an’ i Elizabeta.
41 And it came to passe, as Elisabet heard the salutation of Marie, the babe sprang in her bellie, and Elisabet was filled with the holy Ghost.
Ary rehefa ren’ i Elizabeta ny fiarahaban’ i Maria, dia nibitaka ny zaza tao an-kibony; ary nofenoina ny Fanahy Masìna Elizabeta,
42 And she cried with a loud voice, and saide, Blessed art thou among women, because the fruit of thy wombe is blessed.
dia niantso tamin’ ny feo mahery hoe izy: Voatahy samy vehivavy ianao, ary voatahy ny hateraky ny kibonao.
43 And whence commeth this to mee, that the mother of my Lord should come to me?
Avy aiza no ahatongavan’ izao amiko, no mba vangian’ ny renin’ ny Tompoko aho?
44 For loe, assoone as the voice of thy salutation sounded in mine eares, the babe sprang in my bellie for ioye,
Fa, indro, raha vao ren’ ny sofiko ny feon’ ny fiarahabanao, dia nibitaka noho ny hafaliana ny zaza ao an-kiboko.
45 And blessed is shee that beleeued: for those things shall be perfourmed, which were tolde her from the Lord.
Ary sambatra ianao izay nino; fa hefaina izay zavatra nampilazain’ ny Tompo taminao.
46 Then Marie sayde, My soule magnifieth the Lord,
Ary hoy Maria: Ny foko mankalaza ny Tompo,
47 And my spirite reioyceth in God my Sauiour.
Ary ny fanahiko efa ravoravo tamin’ Andriamanitra, Mpamonjy ahy;
48 For hee hath looked on the poore degree of his seruaunt: for beholde, from henceforth shall all ages call me blessed,
Fa efa nijery ny fahambani-toetry ny ankizivaviny Izy. Fa, indro, hatramin’ ny ankehitriny dia hataon’ ny taranaka rehetra ho sambatra aho.
49 Because hee that is mightie, hath done for me great things, and holy is his Name.
Fa ny Mahery efa nanao zavatra lehibe tamiko; Ary masìna ny anarany.
50 And his mercie is from generation to generation on them that feare him.
Ary ny famindram-pony dia amin’ izay matahotra Azy hatramin’ ny taranaka fara mandimby.
51 Hee hath shewed strength with his arme: hee hath scattered the proude in the imagination of their hearts.
Nanao asa lehibe tamin’ ny sandriny Izy; Nampihahaka ny mpiavonavona tamin’ ny fiheveran’ ny fony Izy.
52 Hee hath put downe the mighty from their seates, and exalted them of lowe degree.
Nampiala ny lehibe tamin’ ny seza fiandrianany Izy, Ary nanandratra ny ambany kosa.
53 Hee hath filled the hungrie with good things, and sent away the rich emptie.
Ny noana novokisany soa; Fa ny manan-karena kosa nampialainy maina.
54 Hee hath vpholden Israel his seruaunt to be mindefull of his mercie
Niahy an’ isiraely mpanompony Izy, fa nahatsiaro ny famindram-pony
(Araka ny voalazany tamin’ ny razantsika), tamin’ i Abrahama sy ny taranany mandrakizay. (aiōn g165)
56 And Marie abode with her about three moneths: after, shee returned to her owne house.
Ary Maria nitoetra teo amin’ i Elizabeta tokony ho telo volana vao nody tany an-tranony.
57 Nowe Elisabets time was fulfilled, that shee should be deliuered, and shee brought foorth a sonne.
Ary tonga ny andro hahaveloman’ i Elizabeta, dia niteraka zazalahy izy.
58 And her neighbours, and cousins heard tell howe the Lord had shewed his great mercie vpon her, and they reioyced with her.
Ary ny niara-monina taminy sy ny havany nandre fa efa nohalehibiazin’ ny Tompo ny famindram-pony taminy; dia niara-nifaly taminy ireo.
59 And it was so that on the eight day they came to circumcise the babe, and called him Zacharias after the name of his father.
Ary tamin’ ny andro fahavalo dia tonga hamora ny zaza izy, ka efa saiky hataony hoe Zakaria araka ny anaran-drainy ny anarany.
60 But his mother answered, and saide, Not so, but he shalbe called Iohn.
Fa ny reniny namaly ka nanao hoe: Tsy izany, fa hatao hoe Jaona izy.
61 And they saide vnto her, There is none of thy kindred, that is named with this name.
Fa hoy izy ireo taminy: Tsy misy na dia iray akory aza amin’ ny havanao izay manana izany anarana izany.
62 Then they made signes to his father, howe he would haue him called.
Ary nanao baikon’ ny moana tamin’ ny rainy iry ireo, izay tokony ho tiany hatao anarany.
63 So hee asked for writing tables, and wrote, saying, His name is Iohn, and they marueiled all.
Ary nangataka fàfana izy ka nanoratra hoe: Jaona no anarany. Dia gaga avokoa izy rehetra.
64 And his mouth was opened immediately, and his tongue, and he spake and praised God.
Ary dia nisokatra niaraka tamin’ izay ny vavany, ka afaka niteny ny lelany; dia niteny izy ka nidera an’ Andriamanitra.
65 Then feare came on all them that dwelt neere vnto them, and all these woordes were noised abroade throughout all the hill countrey of Iudea.
Dia raiki-tahotra izay rehetra niara-monina taminy; ary niely teny amin’ ny tany havoan’ i Jodia rehetra ny lazan’ izany rehetra izany.
66 And al they that heard them, laid them vp in their hearts, saying, What maner childe shall this be! and the hand of the Lord was with him.
Ary izay rehetra nandre dia nandatsaka izany tam-pony ka nanao hoe: Ho zaza hanao ahoana re io? Fa ny tanan’ ny Tompo nomba azy.
67 Then his father Zacharias was filled with the holy Ghost, and prophesied, saying,
Ary dia feno ny Fanahy Masìna Zakaria rainy ka naminany hoe:
68 Blessed be the Lord God of Israel, because he hath visited and redeemed his people,
Isaorana anie ny Tompo Andriamanitry ny Isiraely; Fa nitsinjo ny olony Izy ka nanao fanavotana ho azy,
69 And hath raised vp the horne of saluation vnto vs, in the house of his seruant Dauid,
Ary nanangana tandro-pamonjena ho antsika Amin’ ny taranak’ i Davida mpanompony Izy
70 As he spake by ye mouth of his holy Prophets, which were since the world began, saying, (aiōn g165)
(Araka izay nampilazainy ny mpaminaniny masìna hatramin’ ny fahagola), (aiōn g165)
71 That he would sende vs deliuerance from our enemies, and from the hands of all that hate vs,
Dia famonjena antsika amin’ ny fahavalontsika, sy amin’ ny tànan’ izay rehetra mankahala antsika;
72 That he might shewe mercie towards our fathers, and remember his holy couenant,
Manefa famindram-po amin’ ny razantsika Izy Sady mahatsiaro ny fanekeny masìna,
73 And the othe which he sware to our father Abraham.
Dia ny fianianana izay nianianany tamin’ i Abrahama razantsika,
74 Which was, that he would graunt vnto vs, that we being deliuered out of the handes of our enemies, should serue him without feare,
Hanao izay hahazoantsika hanompo Azy tsy amin-tahotra, Satria afaka amin’ ny fahavalontsika isika,
75 All the daies of our life, in holinesse and righteousnesse before him.
Amin’ ny fahamasinana sy ny fahamarinana eo anatrehany amin’ ny andro rehetra hiainantsika.
76 And thou, babe, shalt be called the Prophet of the most High: for thou shalt goe before the face of the Lord, to prepare his waies,
Ary ianao, ry zaza, dia hatao hoe mpaminanin’ ny Avo Indrindra; Fa hialoha eo anatrehan’ ny Tompo ianao hamboatra ny lalany.
77 And to giue knowledge of saluation vnto his people, by the remission of their sinnes,
Hanome ny olony ny fahalalam-pamonjena amin’ ny famelana ny helony,
78 Through ye tender mercy of our God, wherby the day spring from an hie hath visited vs,
Noho ny halehiben’ ny famindram-pon’ Andriamanitsika, izay hiposahan’ ny mazava avy any amin’ ny avo ho antsika.
79 To giue light to them that sit in darknes, and in the shadow of death, and to guide our feete into the way of peace.
Hamirapiratra amin’ izay mipetraka ao amin’ ny maizina sy ao amin’ ny aloky ny fahafatesana, Hanitsy ny diantsika ho amin’ ny lalam-piadanana.
80 And the childe grewe, and waxed strong in spirit, and was in the wildernesse, til the day came that he should shewe him selfe vnto Israel.
Ary ny zazakely nitombo ka nihahery tam-panahy; ary nitoetra tany an-efitra izy ambara-pahatongan’ ny andro nisehoany tamin’ ny Isiraely.
