Luke 1
1 Forasmuch as many haue taken in hand to set foorth the storie of those things, whereof we are fully persuaded,
prathamatō yē sākṣiṇō vākyapracārakāścāsan tē'smākaṁ madhyē yadyat sapramāṇaṁ vākyamarpayanti sma
2 As they haue deliuered them vnto vs, which from the beginning saw them their selues, and were ministers of ye word,
tadanusāratō'nyēpi bahavastadvr̥ttāntaṁ racayituṁ pravr̥ttāḥ|
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,
ataēva hē mahāmahimathiyaphil tvaṁ yā yāḥ kathā aśikṣyathāstāsāṁ dr̥ḍhapramāṇāni yathā prāpnōṣi
4 That thou mightest acknowledge the certaintie of those things, whereof thou hast bene instructed.
tadarthaṁ prathamamārabhya tāni sarvvāṇi jñātvāhamapi anukramāt sarvvavr̥ttāntān tubhyaṁ lēkhituṁ matimakārṣam|
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.
yihūdādēśīyahērōdnāmakē rājatvaṁ kurvvati abīyayājakasya paryyāyādhikārī sikhariyanāmaka ēkō yājakō hārōṇavaṁśōdbhavā ilīśēvākhyā
6 Both were iust before God, and walked in all the commandements and ordinances of the Lord, without reproofe.
tasya jāyā dvāvimau nirdōṣau prabhōḥ sarvvājñā vyavasthāśca saṁmanya īśvaradr̥ṣṭau dhārmmikāvāstām|
7 And they had no childe, because that Elisabet was barren: and both were well stricken in age.
tayōḥ santāna ēkōpi nāsīt, yata ilīśēvā bandhyā tau dvāvēva vr̥ddhāvabhavatām|
8 And it came to passe, as he executed the Priestes office before God, as his course came in order,
yadā svaparyyānukramēṇa sikhariya īśvāsya samakṣaṁ yājakīyaṁ karmma karōti
9 According to the custome of the Priests office, his lot was to burne incense, when he went into the Temple of the Lord.
tadā yajñasya dinaparipāyyā paramēśvarasya mandirē pravēśakālē dhūpajvālanaṁ karmma tasya karaṇīyamāsīt|
10 And the whole multitude of the people were without in prayer, while the incense was burning.
taddhūpajvālanakālē lōkanivahē prārthanāṁ kartuṁ bahistiṣṭhati
11 Then appeared vnto him an Angel of the Lord standing at the right side of the altar of incense.
sati sikhariyō yasyāṁ vēdyāṁ dhūpaṁ jvālayati taddakṣiṇapārśvē paramēśvarasya dūta ēka upasthitō darśanaṁ dadau|
12 And when Zacharias sawe him, he was troubled, and feare fell vpon him.
taṁ dr̥ṣṭvā sikhariya udvivijē śaśaṅkē ca|
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.
tadā sa dūtastaṁ babhāṣē hē sikhariya mā bhaistava prārthanā grāhyā jātā tava bhāryyā ilīśēvā putraṁ prasōṣyatē tasya nāma yōhan iti kariṣyasi|
14 And thou shalt haue ioy and gladnes, and many shall reioyce at his birth.
kiñca tvaṁ sānandaḥ saharṣaśca bhaviṣyasi tasya janmani bahava ānandiṣyanti ca|
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.
yatō hētōḥ sa paramēśvarasya gōcarē mahān bhaviṣyati tathā drākṣārasaṁ surāṁ vā kimapi na pāsyati, aparaṁ janmārabhya pavitrēṇātmanā paripūrṇaḥ
16 And many of the children of Israel shall he turne to their Lord God.
san isrāyēlvaṁśīyān anēkān prabhōḥ paramēśvarasya mārgamānēṣyati|
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.
santānān prati pitr̥ṇāṁ manāṁsi dharmmajñānaṁ pratyanājñāgrāhiṇaśca parāvarttayituṁ, prabhōḥ paramēśvarasya sēvārtham ēkāṁ sajjitajātiṁ vidhātuñca sa ēliyarūpātmaśaktiprāptastasyāgrē gamiṣyati|
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.
tadā sikhariyō dūtamavādīt kathamētad vētsyāmi? yatōhaṁ vr̥ddhō mama bhāryyā ca vr̥ddhā|
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.
tatō dūtaḥ pratyuvāca paśyēśvarasya sākṣādvarttī jibrāyēlnāmā dūtōhaṁ tvayā saha kathāṁ gadituṁ tubhyamimāṁ śubhavārttāṁ dātuñca prēṣitaḥ|
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.
kintu madīyaṁ vākyaṁ kālē phaliṣyati tat tvayā na pratītam ataḥ kāraṇād yāvadēva tāni na sētsyanti tāvat tvaṁ vaktuṁmaśaktō mūkō bhava|
21 Now the people waited for Zacharias, and marueiled that he taried so long in the Temple.
tadānīṁ yē yē lōkāḥ sikhariyamapaikṣanta tē madhyēmandiraṁ tasya bahuvilambād āścaryyaṁ mēnirē|
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.
sa bahirāgatō yadā kimapi vākyaṁ vaktumaśaktaḥ saṅkētaṁ kr̥tvā niḥśabdastasyau tadā madhyēmandiraṁ kasyacid darśanaṁ tēna prāptam iti sarvvē bubudhirē|
23 And it came to passe, when the daies of his office were fulfilled, that he departed to his owne house.
anantaraṁ tasya sēvanaparyyāyē sampūrṇē sati sa nijagēhaṁ jagāma|
24 And after those daies, his wife Elisabet conceiued, and hid her selfe fiue moneths, saying,
katipayadinēṣu gatēṣu tasya bhāryyā ilīśēvā garbbhavatī babhūva
25 Thus hath the Lord dealt with me, in the daies wherein he looked on me, to take from me my rebuke among men.
paścāt sā pañcamāsān saṁgōpyākathayat lōkānāṁ samakṣaṁ mamāpamānaṁ khaṇḍayituṁ paramēśvarō mayi dr̥ṣṭiṁ pātayitvā karmmēdr̥śaṁ kr̥tavān|
26 And in the sixth moneth, the Angell Gabriel was sent from God vnto a citie of Galile, named Nazareth,
aparañca tasyā garbbhasya ṣaṣṭhē māsē jātē gālīlpradēśīyanāsaratpurē
27 To a virgin affianced to a man whose name was Ioseph, of the house of Dauid, and the virgins name was Marie.
dāyūdō vaṁśīyāya yūṣaphnāmnē puruṣāya yā mariyamnāmakumārī vāgdattāsīt tasyāḥ samīpaṁ jibrāyēl dūta īśvarēṇa prahitaḥ|
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.
sa gatvā jagāda hē īśvarānugr̥hītakanyē tava śubhaṁ bhūyāt prabhuḥ paramēśvarastava sahāyōsti nārīṇāṁ madhyē tvamēva dhanyā|
29 And when she saw him, she was troubled at his saying, and thought what maner of salutation that should be.
tadānīṁ sā taṁ dr̥ṣṭvā tasya vākyata udvijya kīdr̥śaṁ bhāṣaṇamidam iti manasā cintayāmāsa|
30 Then the Angel saide vnto her, Feare not, Marie: for thou hast found fauour with God.
tatō dūtō'vadat hē mariyam bhayaṁ mākārṣīḥ, tvayi paramēśvarasyānugrahōsti|
31 For loe, thou shalt conceiue in thy wobe, and beare a sonne, and shalt call his name Iesus.
paśya tvaṁ garbbhaṁ dhr̥tvā putraṁ prasōṣyasē tasya nāma yīśuriti kariṣyasi|
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.
sa mahān bhaviṣyati tathā sarvvēbhyaḥ śrēṣṭhasya putra iti khyāsyati; aparaṁ prabhuḥ paramēśvarastasya piturdāyūdaḥ siṁhāsanaṁ tasmai dāsyati;
33 And hee shall reigne ouer the house of Iacob for euer, and of his kingdome shall bee none ende. (aiōn g165)
tathā sa yākūbō vaṁśōpari sarvvadā rājatvaṁ kariṣyati, tasya rājatvasyāntō na bhaviṣyati| (aiōn g165)
34 Then sayde Marie vnto the Angel, How shall this be, seeing I knowe not man?
tadā mariyam taṁ dūtaṁ babhāṣē nāhaṁ puruṣasaṅgaṁ karōmi tarhi kathamētat sambhaviṣyati?
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.
tatō dūtō'kathayat pavitra ātmā tvāmāśrāyiṣyati tathā sarvvaśrēṣṭhasya śaktistavōpari chāyāṁ kariṣyati tatō hētōstava garbbhād yaḥ pavitrabālakō janiṣyatē sa īśvaraputra iti khyātiṁ prāpsyati|
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.
aparañca paśya tava jñātirilīśēvā yāṁ sarvvē bandhyāmavadan idānīṁ sā vārddhakyē santānamēkaṁ garbbhē'dhārayat tasya ṣaṣṭhamāsōbhūt|
37 For with God shall nothing be vnpossible.
kimapi karmma nāsādhyam īśvarasya|
38 Then Marie said, Behold the seruant of the Lord: be it vnto me according to thy woorde. So the Angel departed from her.
tadā mariyam jagāda, paśya prabhērahaṁ dāsī mahyaṁ tava vākyānusārēṇa sarvvamētad ghaṭatām; ananataraṁ dūtastasyāḥ samīpāt pratasthē|
39 And Marie arose in those daies, and went into ye hil countrey with hast to a citie of Iuda,
atha katipayadināt paraṁ mariyam tasmāt parvvatamayapradēśīyayihūdāyā nagaramēkaṁ śīghraṁ gatvā
40 And entred into the house of Zacharias, and saluted Elisabet.
sikhariyayājakasya gr̥haṁ praviśya tasya jāyām ilīśēvāṁ sambōdhyāvadat|
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.
tatō mariyamaḥ sambōdhanavākyē ilīśēvāyāḥ karṇayōḥ praviṣṭamātrē sati tasyā garbbhasthabālakō nanartta| tata ilīśēvā pavitrēṇātmanā paripūrṇā satī
42 And she cried with a loud voice, and saide, Blessed art thou among women, because the fruit of thy wombe is blessed.
prōccairgaditumārēbhē, yōṣitāṁ madhyē tvamēva dhanyā, tava garbbhasthaḥ śiśuśca dhanyaḥ|
43 And whence commeth this to mee, that the mother of my Lord should come to me?
tvaṁ prabhōrmātā, mama nivēśanē tvayā caraṇāvarpitau, mamādya saubhāgyamētat|
44 For loe, assoone as the voice of thy salutation sounded in mine eares, the babe sprang in my bellie for ioye,
paśya tava vākyē mama karṇayōḥ praviṣṭamātrē sati mamōdarasthaḥ śiśurānandān nanartta|
45 And blessed is shee that beleeued: for those things shall be perfourmed, which were tolde her from the Lord.
yā strī vyaśvasīt sā dhanyā, yatō hētōstāṁ prati paramēśvarōktaṁ vākyaṁ sarvvaṁ siddhaṁ bhaviṣyati|
46 Then Marie sayde, My soule magnifieth the Lord,
tadānīṁ mariyam jagāda| dhanyavādaṁ parēśasya karōti māmakaṁ manaḥ|
47 And my spirite reioyceth in God my Sauiour.
mamātmā tārakēśē ca samullāsaṁ pragacchati|
48 For hee hath looked on the poore degree of his seruaunt: for beholde, from henceforth shall all ages call me blessed,
akarōt sa prabhu rduṣṭiṁ svadāsyā durgatiṁ prati| paśyādyārabhya māṁ dhanyāṁ vakṣyanti puruṣāḥ sadā|
49 Because hee that is mightie, hath done for me great things, and holy is his Name.
yaḥ sarvvaśaktimān yasya nāmāpi ca pavitrakaṁ| sa ēva sumahatkarmma kr̥tavān mannimittakaṁ|
50 And his mercie is from generation to generation on them that feare him.
yē bibhyati janāstasmāt tēṣāṁ santānapaṁktiṣu| anukampā tadīyā ca sarvvadaiva sutiṣṭhati|
51 Hee hath shewed strength with his arme: hee hath scattered the proude in the imagination of their hearts.
svabāhubalatastēna prākāśyata parākramaḥ| manaḥkumantraṇāsārddhaṁ vikīryyantē'bhimāninaḥ|
52 Hee hath put downe the mighty from their seates, and exalted them of lowe degree.
siṁhāsanagatāllōkān balinaścāvarōhya saḥ| padēṣūccēṣu lōkāṁstu kṣudrān saṁsthāpayatyapi|
53 Hee hath filled the hungrie with good things, and sent away the rich emptie.
kṣudhitān mānavān dravyairuttamaiḥ paritarpya saḥ| sakalān dhaninō lōkān visr̥jēd riktahastakān|
54 Hee hath vpholden Israel his seruaunt to be mindefull of his mercie
ibrāhīmi ca tadvaṁśē yā dayāsti sadaiva tāṁ| smr̥tvā purā pitr̥ṇāṁ nō yathā sākṣāt pratiśrutaṁ| (aiōn g165)
isrāyēlsēvakastēna tathōpakriyatē svayaṁ||
56 And Marie abode with her about three moneths: after, shee returned to her owne house.
anantaraṁ mariyam prāyēṇa māsatrayam ilīśēvayā sahōṣitvā vyāghuyya nijanivēśanaṁ yayau|
57 Nowe Elisabets time was fulfilled, that shee should be deliuered, and shee brought foorth a sonne.
tadanantaram ilīśēvāyāḥ prasavakāla upasthitē sati sā putraṁ prāsōṣṭa|
58 And her neighbours, and cousins heard tell howe the Lord had shewed his great mercie vpon her, and they reioyced with her.
tataḥ paramēśvarastasyāṁ mahānugrahaṁ kr̥tavān ētat śrutvā samīpavāsinaḥ kuṭumbāścāgatya tayā saha mumudirē|
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.
tathāṣṭamē dinē tē bālakasya tvacaṁ chēttum ētya tasya pitr̥nāmānurūpaṁ tannāma sikhariya iti karttumīṣuḥ|
60 But his mother answered, and saide, Not so, but he shalbe called Iohn.
kintu tasya mātākathayat tanna, nāmāsya yōhan iti karttavyam|
61 And they saide vnto her, There is none of thy kindred, that is named with this name.
tadā tē vyāharan tava vaṁśamadhyē nāmēdr̥śaṁ kasyāpi nāsti|
62 Then they made signes to his father, howe he would haue him called.
tataḥ paraṁ tasya pitaraṁ sikhariyaṁ prati saṅkētya papracchuḥ śiśōḥ kiṁ nāma kāriṣyatē?
63 So hee asked for writing tables, and wrote, saying, His name is Iohn, and they marueiled all.
tataḥ sa phalakamēkaṁ yācitvā lilēkha tasya nāma yōhan bhaviṣyati| tasmāt sarvvē āścaryyaṁ mēnirē|
64 And his mouth was opened immediately, and his tongue, and he spake and praised God.
tatkṣaṇaṁ sikhariyasya jihvājāḍyē'pagatē sa mukhaṁ vyādāya spaṣṭavarṇamuccāryya īśvarasya guṇānuvādaṁ cakāra|
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.
tasmāccaturdiksthāḥ samīpavāsilōkā bhītā ēvamētāḥ sarvvāḥ kathā yihūdāyāḥ parvvatamayapradēśasya sarvvatra pracāritāḥ|
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.
tasmāt śrōtārō manaḥsu sthāpayitvā kathayāmbabhūvuḥ kīdr̥śōyaṁ bālō bhaviṣyati? atha paramēśvarastasya sahāyōbhūt|
67 Then his father Zacharias was filled with the holy Ghost, and prophesied, saying,
tadā yōhanaḥ pitā sikhariyaḥ pavitrēṇātmanā paripūrṇaḥ san ētādr̥śaṁ bhaviṣyadvākyaṁ kathayāmāsa|
68 Blessed be the Lord God of Israel, because he hath visited and redeemed his people,
isrāyēlaḥ prabhu ryastu sa dhanyaḥ paramēśvaraḥ| anugr̥hya nijāllōkān sa ēva parimōcayēt|
69 And hath raised vp the horne of saluation vnto vs, in the house of his seruant Dauid,
vipakṣajanahastēbhyō yathā mōcyāmahē vayaṁ| yāvajjīvañca dharmmēṇa sāralyēna ca nirbhayāḥ|
70 As he spake by ye mouth of his holy Prophets, which were since the world began, saying, (aiōn g165)
sēvāmahai tamēvaikam ētatkāraṇamēva ca| svakīyaṁ supavitrañca saṁsmr̥tya niyamaṁ sadā|
71 That he would sende vs deliuerance from our enemies, and from the hands of all that hate vs,
kr̥payā puruṣān pūrvvān nikaṣārthāttu naḥ pituḥ| ibrāhīmaḥ samīpē yaṁ śapathaṁ kr̥tavān purā|
72 That he might shewe mercie towards our fathers, and remember his holy couenant,
tamēva saphalaṁ karttaṁ tathā śatrugaṇasya ca| r̥tīyākāriṇaścaiva karēbhyō rakṣaṇāya naḥ|
73 And the othe which he sware to our father Abraham.
sr̥ṣṭēḥ prathamataḥ svīyaiḥ pavitrai rbhāvivādibhiḥ| (aiōn g165)
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,
yathōktavān tathā svasya dāyūdaḥ sēvakasya tu|
75 All the daies of our life, in holinesse and righteousnesse before him.
vaṁśē trātāramēkaṁ sa samutpāditavān svayam|
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,
atō hē bālaka tvantu sarvvēbhyaḥ śrēṣṭha ēva yaḥ| tasyaiva bhāvivādīti pravikhyātō bhaviṣyasi| asmākaṁ caraṇān kṣēmē mārgē cālayituṁ sadā| ēvaṁ dhvāntē'rthatō mr̥tyōśchāyāyāṁ yē tu mānavāḥ|
77 And to giue knowledge of saluation vnto his people, by the remission of their sinnes,
upaviṣṭāstu tānēva prakāśayitumēva hi| kr̥tvā mahānukampāṁ hi yāmēva paramēśvaraḥ|
78 Through ye tender mercy of our God, wherby the day spring from an hie hath visited vs,
ūrdvvāt sūryyamudāyyaivāsmabhyaṁ prādāttu darśanaṁ| tayānukampayā svasya lōkānāṁ pāpamōcanē|
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.
paritrāṇasya tēbhyō hi jñānaviśrāṇanāya ca| prabhō rmārgaṁ pariṣkarttuṁ tasyāgrāyī bhaviṣyasi||
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.
atha bālakaḥ śarīrēṇa buddhyā ca varddhitumārēbhē; aparañca sa isrāyēlō vaṁśīyalōkānāṁ samīpē yāvanna prakaṭībhūtastāstāvat prāntarē nyavasat|
