Luke 1
1 Forasmuch as many have taken in hand to set forth in order a declaration of those things which are most surely believed among us,
Abhanu bafu bhekomesishe okujitonda kisi emisango jinu jakumiye agati yeswe.
2 Even as they delivered them unto us, which from the beginning were eyewitnesses, and ministers of the word;
Lwakutyo eswe chayabhwilwe na bhanu bhajilolele na ameso kwambila kubhwambilo bhali bhakosi bho Omusango gwa Nyamuanga.
3 It seemed good to me also, having had perfect understanding of all things from the very first, to write unto thee in order, most excellent Theophilus,
Kulwejo anye ona, nejile namala okukengela kisi obhwambilo bhwe emisango jona- nalola ati nikisi nikwandikile kubhwitondi bhwajo-Teofilo owechibhalo.
4 That thou mightest know the certainty of those things, wherein thou hast been instructed.
Koleleki utule okumenya echimali che emisango jinu weigisibhwe.
5 There was in the days of Herod, the king of Judæa, a certain priest named Zacharias, of the course of Abia: and his wife [was] of the daughters of Aaron, and her name [was] Elisabeth.
Munsiku ja Herode omukama wa Yudea, aliga alio omugabisi atogwaga Zakaria, owamulubho lwo obhugabhisi bhwa Abiya; omugasi waye Elizabeti aliga asokole muluganda lwa Haruni.
6 And they were both righteous before God, walking in all the commandments and ordinances of the Lord blameless.
Abho bhone bhaliga bhali bhalengelesi imbele ya Nyamuanga bhagwatiliye ebhilagilo byona ebhyo Omukama na jindamu jaye.
7 And they had no child, because that Elisabeth was barren, and they both were [now] well stricken in years.
Nawe bhaliga bhatana mwana, kulwokubha Elizabethi aliga alimugumba, na bhaliga bhakokoye muno.
8 And it came to pass, that while he executed the priest’s office before God in the order of his course,
Kakingile akatungu ko olubho lwa Zakaria okubha imbele ya Nyamuanga nakolaga emilimu jobhugabhisi,
9 According to the custom of the priest’s office, his lot was to burn incense when he went into the temple of the Lord.
Mbe nibhamusola okwingana lwa kutyo bhasolwaga mumilimu jo obugabhisi, agende mwiyekalu okututa omuchumulilo.
10 And the whole multitude of the people were praying without at the time of incense.
Katungu nibhatuta omuchumulilo elikofyanya lyaliga lilianja nilisabhwa.
11 And there appeared unto him an angel of the Lord standing on the right side of the altar of incense.
Mbe Malaika wo Omukama amufulumukiyeko nemelegulu mukubhoko kwe ebhulyo okwe ebhigabhilo bhokututila.
12 And when Zacharias saw [him], he was troubled, and fear fell upon him.
Ejile Zakaria amulola natinyuka nabhamo nobhubha.
13 But the angel said unto him, Fear not, Zacharias: for thy prayer is heard; and thy wife Elisabeth shall bear thee a son, and thou shalt call his name John.
Nawe malaika namubhwila ati, “Wasiga kubhaya Zakaria, kulwokubha lisabhwa lyao lyongwibhwa. Omugasi wao Elijabeti kaja okwibhulila omwana we echilume. Risina lyaye umutoge Yoana.
14 And thou shalt have joy and gladness; and many shall rejoice at his birth.
Ulikondelwa nokusandabha, na bhanfu bhalikondelelwa ukwibhulwa kwaye.
15 For he shall be great in the sight of the Lord, and shall drink neither wine nor strong drink; and he shall be filled with the Holy Ghost, even from his mother’s womb.
Kulwokubha alibha mukulu imbele ya meso go Omukama. Atalinywa omulamba gwa majabhibhu amwi echinu chinu echitamisha, na alijusibhwa Mwoyo Mweru kusokelela munda ya nyilamwene.
16 And many of the children of Israel shall he turn to the Lord their God.
Alubhasubhya bhanu bhafu bha Isiraeli kumukama Nyamuanga webhwe
17 And he shall go before him in the spirit and power of Elias, to turn the hearts of the fathers to the children, and the disobedient to the wisdom of the just; to make ready a people prepared for the Lord.
Alitangata imbele yo obhusu bhwa Lata Bhugenyi kulwo mwoyo na mumanaga ga Eliya. Alikola kutyo koleleki asubye emitima ja abhebhusi kubhana, koleleki bhanyantongwa bhalame mubhwengeso bhwa abhalengelesi. Alikola kutyo okubhemalilisha bhanu bhelabhilwe okusolwa ingulu yaye.”
18 And Zacharias said unto the angel, Whereby shall I know this? for I am an old man, and my wife well stricken in years.
Zakaria nabhwila malaika ati, “Omusango gunu enigumenya kutiki? Kulwokubha anye nakokoye ke emyaka jo omugasi wani ona jabheye myafu muno.”
19 And the angel answering said unto him, I am Gabriel, that stand in the presence of God; and am sent to speak unto thee, and to shew thee these glad tidings.
Malaika nasubhya namubhwila ati, “Anye nanye Gabhulyeli, unu nimeleguyu imbele ya Nyamuanga. Nitumilwe okuja nikubhwile omusango gunu ogwekisi.
20 And, behold, thou shalt be dumb, and not able to speak, until the day that these things shall be performed, because thou believest not my words, which shall be fulfilled in their season.
Mbe lola oubha mujibhi, utakwaika kukingila kulusiku olwo jinu jilikumila. Kulwokubha walemele okwikilisha emisango jani ejojilikumila mukatungu akene.
21 And the people waited for Zacharias, and marvelled that he tarried so long in the temple.
Mbe abhanu bhaliga bhamulindiliye zakaria. Nibhalugula okulola namala omwanya mulela ali mwiyekalu.
22 And when he came out, he could not speak unto them: and they perceived that he had seen a vision in the temple: for he beckoned unto them, and remained speechless.
Nawe ejile auluka atatule kwaika nabho. Nibhamenya ati aliga alolele chiroro mwiyekaru.
23 And it came to pass, that, as soon as the days of his ministration were accomplished, he departed to his own house.
Nijibha ati ejile amala emilimu jo obhugabhisi nemuka okusubha ika owaye.
24 And after those days his wife Elisabeth conceived, and hid herself five months, saying,
Ejile Zakaria amala okusubha ika okusoka kumilimu jaye eja muyekalu, omugasi waye nagega inda. Mbe namala mesi gatanu obhutasoka ika owaye. Naika ati,
25 Thus hath the Lord dealt with me in the days wherein he looked on [me], to take away my reproach among men.
“Linu nilyo Lata Bhugenyi amankolelea ejile ansima koleleki ansosheko jinswalo imbele ya abhanu.”
26 And in the sixth month the angel Gabriel was sent from God unto a city of Galilee, named Nazareth,
Inda ya Elijabheti yejile yakingya mesi mukaga, Nyamuanga atumile malaika Gabhulieli okugenda mumusi gwa Galilaya gunu ogutogwa Najareti,
27 To a virgin espoused to a man whose name was Joseph, of the house of David; and the virgin’s name [was] Mary.
ku muyalajuma unu asandwaga obhuko no mulume natogwa Yusufu. Omumula oyo aliga wamuluganda lwa Daudi, na lisina lyo omuyalajuma aliga natogwa Mariamu.
28 And the angel came in unto her, and said, Hail, [thou that art] highly favoured, the Lord [is] with thee: blessed [art] thou among women.
Ejile amukingako naika ati, “Uno omu! embe, unu Uyabhilwe libhando enene! Omukama ali amwi nawe.”
29 And when she saw [him], she was troubled at his saying, and cast in her mind what manner of salutation this should be.
Nawe emisango ja malaika nijimusobhela nalema okumenya obhukesha obhwokulugusha bhunu bhuna nsongaki ku mwene.
30 And the angel said unto her, Fear not, Mary: for thou hast found favour with God.
Malaika namubhwila ati “Utobhaya, Mariamu, obha wabhwene ribhando ku Nyamuanga.
31 And, behold, thou shalt conceive in thy womb, and bring forth a son, and shalt call his name JESUS.
Rora ougega inda Munda yao no owibhula omwana na lisina ryae oumutoga Yesu. omwene
32 He shall be great, and shall be called the Son of the Highest: and the Lord God shall give unto him the throne of his father David:
alibha mukuru alitogwa omwana wa unu ali inguru muno Lata Bhugenyi Nya Daudi esemwene
33 And he shall reign over the house of Jacob for ever; and of his kingdom there shall be no end. (aiōn g165)
Alikama oruganda lwa Yakobo kajanende no bhukama bhwaye bhutaliwao. (aiōn g165)
34 Then said Mary unto the angel, How shall this be, seeing I know not a man?
Mariamu nabhusya malaika jiribha kutiki okubha nitana murume.
35 And the angel answered and said unto her, The Holy Ghost shall come upon thee, and the power of the Highest shall overshadow thee: therefore also that holy thing which shall be born of thee shall be called the Son of God.
Malaika namubhira “moyo mweru alikwijila inguru yao, namanaga unu aliinguru muno Anja inguru yao. ku nokubha omwana unu kebhulwa alitongwa omwana wa Nyamuanga
36 And, behold, thy cousin Elisabeth, she hath also conceived a son in her old age: and this is the sixth month with her, who was called barren.
Lola, omuili wao Elijabheti ali na inda yo mwana mu bhulame bhae obhwo bhukaluk. Kunu ni kwesi kwa sita kwa inda yae, unu aliga natogwa mugumba.
37 For with God nothing shall be impossible.
Kulwokubha litalio linu elimusinga Nyamuanga.”
38 And Mary said, Behold the handmaid of the Lord; be it unto me according to thy word. And the angel departed from her.
Maliamu naikati, Lola, anye ndi mukosi we chigasi wa Nyamuanga. Siga jibhe kutyo aikile kwanye emisango jao.”Neya malaika namusiga.
39 And Mary arose in those days, and went into the hill country with haste, into a city of Juda;
Nio kunsiku ejo Mariamu nagenda bhwangu mu chalo chebhima, mu musi mu nsi ya Yudea.
40 And entered into the house of Zacharias, and saluted Elisabeth.
Agendele nengila munyumba ya Jakalia namukesha Elijabheti.
41 And it came to pass, that, when Elisabeth heard the salutation of Mary, the babe leaped in her womb; and Elisabeth was filled with the Holy Ghost:
Oli yabhonekene ati Elijabheti ejile inkesha ya Maliamu, omwana munda yae nejunga, na Elijabheti nejushwa no mwoyo mwelu.
42 And she spake out with a loud voice, and said, Blessed [art] thou among women, and blessed [is] the fruit of thy womb.
Naikila ingulu kwo bhulaka bhunene,”una libhando agati ya bhagasi bhona, no mwana unu ali munda yao ona abhonekewe.
43 And whence [is] this to me, that the mother of my Lord should come to me?
Jabhakutiki kwanye ati, nyila wa Latabhugenyi jimwiile aje kwanye?
44 For, lo, as soon as the voice of thy salutation sounded in mine ears, the babe leaped in my womb for joy.
Kulwokubha lola, anu nongwo obhulaka bhwo kukeshyanya kwao, omwana munda yani nejunga ku lwokusandabha.
45 And blessed [is] she that believed: for there shall be a performance of those things which were told her from the Lord.
Na abhonekeweomugasi oyo unu ekilisishe ati jakabhonekene jinu jaikilwe jili ja chimali jinu abhwiliwe okusoka ku Latabhugenyi.”
46 And Mary said, My soul doth magnify the Lord,
Maliamu naikati, omwoyo gwani ogumukuya Latabhugenyi,
47 And my spirit hath rejoiced in God my Saviour.
No mwoyo gwani gukondelewemu Nyamuanga omukisha wani.
48 For he hath regarded the low estate of his handmaiden: for, behold, from henceforth all generations shall call me blessed.
Kulwokubha amalola kutyo ali mwololoomukosi wae owechigasi. Lola, okwambila woli jinyibhulo jona ejija okumbilikila owamabhando.
49 For he that is mighty hath done to me great things; and holy [is] his name.
Kulwokubha omwene owobhutulo amakola amgambo manene kwanye, na lisina lyae ni lyelu.
50 And his mercy [is] on them that fear him from generation to generation.
Nechigongo chae chilio okusoka maimbo na maimbo ku bhanu bhanu abhamwikilisha.
51 He hath shewed strength with his arm; he hath scattered the proud in the imagination of their hearts.
Olesishe amanaga kwo kubhoko kwae, anyalambuye bhanu bhekushaga ingulu yo bhwiganilisha bhwe mioyo jebhwe.
52 He hath put down the mighty from [their] seats, and exalted them of low degree.
Abhatelemusishe ansi abhana bha bhakama okusoka kubhitebhe bhyebhwe ebhyobhukama no kubhakusha bhanu bhaliga bhagailwe.
53 He hath filled the hungry with good things; and the rich he hath sent empty away.
Abhegusishe bhanu bhaliga bhana omweko gwe bhinu bhyekisi, tali abhanibhi abhabhilimishe bhatali na chinu.
54 He hath holpen his servant Israel, in remembrance of [his] mercy;
Asosishe obhusakisi ku Israel omukosi wae, koleleki okwichuka okwolesha echigongo
(lwakutyo aikile ku bhalata bheswe) ku Abrahamu no lwibhulo lwae kajanende.” (aiōn g165)
56 And Mary abode with her about three months, and returned to her own house.
Maliamu ekae na Elijabheti kwa mwanya gwa mesi gasatu kutya nio nasubha ika ewae.
57 Now Elisabeth’s full time came that she should be delivered; and she brought forth a son.
Woli omwanya gwaliga gweile ogwa Elijabheti okwibhula omwana wae na nebhula omwana we chilume.
58 And her neighbours and her cousins heard how the Lord had shewed great mercy upon her; and they rejoiced with her.
Abhekashanya bhae na bhaili bhae bhonguhywe kutyo Latabhugenyi amwikisishe echigongo kumwene, nibhakondelelwa amwi nage.
59 And it came to pass, that on the eighth day they came to circumcise the child; and they called him Zacharias, after the name of his father.
Woli jasokene ku lusiku lwa nane ati bhejile okumtenda omwana. Jaliga jibheile okumtoga lisina lyae, “Jakaliya,”kwo kulubha lisina lye esemwene,
60 And his mother answered and said, Not [so]; but he shall be called John.
Tali nyila wae nasubhya naikati,”Payi; kabhilikilwa Yowana.”
61 And they said unto her, There is none of thy kindred that is called by this name.
Nibhamubwilati, atalio na umwi amwi mubhaili bhao unu kabhilikilwa lisinaelyo.”
62 And they made signs to his father, how he would have him called.
Nibhamukolela echijejekanyo esemwene wae okususanyisha omwene aliga nenda atogwe niga.
63 And he asked for a writing table, and wrote, saying, His name is John. And they marvelled all.
Esemwene nenda olubao lwo kwandikila, na nandikati,”Lisina lyae ni Yowana.”Bhona nibhalugusibhwa nelyo.
64 And his mouth was opened immediately, and his tongue [loosed], and he spake, and praised God.
Aonao omunwa gwae nigwiguka no lulimi lwae nilusulumuka. Naloma nakumukusha Nyamuanga.
65 And fear came on all that dwelt round about them: and all these sayings were noised abroad throughout all the hill country of Judæa.
Nibhobhaya bhona bhanu bhaliga bhekae ayeyi nabho. Emisango ejo nijiswila muchalo chona echa mabhanga ga Yudeya.
66 And all they that heard [them] laid [them] up in their hearts, saying, What manner of child shall this be! And the hand of the Lord was with him.
Bhona bhanu bhagonguhye nibhagabhika mumitima jebhwe, nibhaika ati, “Omwana unu ni wakutiki?” Kulwokubha okubhoko kwa Nyamuanga kuliamwi nage.
67 And his father Zacharias was filled with the Holy Ghost, and prophesied, saying,
Esemwene wae Jakaliya ejusibhwe no Mwoyo Mwelu nasosha obhulagi, naikati, Asimwe
68 Blessed [be] the Lord God of Israel; for he hath visited and redeemed his people,
Latabhugenyi, Nyamuanga wa Isilaeli, kulwokubha amasakila na amafulubhendela omwelulo gwa bhanu bhae.
69 And hath raised up an horn of salvation for us in the house of his servant David;
Amachinamusisha liyembe elyomwelulo mu nyumba yo mukosi wae Daudi, okusoka mubhamwi bho luganda lwo mukosi wae Daudi,
70 As he spake by the mouth of his holy prophets, which have been since the world began: (aiōn g165)
Lwakutyo aikile kwo munwa gwa bhalagi bhae bhanu bhaliga bhalio ku mwanya gwa kala. (aiōn g165)
71 That we should be saved from our enemies, and from the hand of all that hate us;
Kaja ochikisha okusoka kubhasoko bheswe no kusoka mumabhoko gabhanu bhachiyatile.
72 To perform the mercy [promised] to our fathers, and to remember his holy covenant;
Alikola kutya okwolesha echigongo kubhalata, nokwichuka lilagano lyae lyo bhwelu,
73 The oath which he sware to our father Abraham,
no mulayi gunu aikile ku lata weswe Aburamu.
74 That he would grant unto us, that we being delivered out of the hand of our enemies might serve him without fear,
Alaiye okwolesha ati jakatulikene okumukolela Omwene atali na bhubuha, chisanga chamalile okuchungulwa okusoka mumabhoko ga bhasoko bheswe.
75 In holiness and righteousness before him, all the days of our life.
Mubhwelu no bhulengelesi lmbele yaye munsiku jeswe jona.
76 And thou, child, shalt be called the prophet of the Highest: for thou shalt go before the face of the Lord to prepare his ways;
Yee, aona mwana, oubhilikilwa mulagi wa Unu ali ingulu muno, kulwokubha ouja okugenda mubhusu bhwa Latabhugenyi koleleki okumuchumila injila, okubhamenyesha abhanu kulwokuja kwae,
77 To give knowledge of salvation unto his people by the remission of their sins,
Okubhamenyesha abhanu bhae ati, bhalichungulwa kwo kwiswalililwa ebhibhibhi bhyebhwe.
78 Through the tender mercy of our God; whereby the dayspring from on high hath visited us,
Linu libhonekene kulwainsonga ye chigongo cha Nyamuanga weswe, kulwainsonga ati lisubha okusoka ingulu lilichijila,
79 To give light to them that sit in darkness and [in] the shadow of death, to guide our feet into the way of peace.
Okumulikila bhanu bhanu bhekae muchisute na mwilengesi lyo lufu. Kakola kutyo okutangasha amagulu geswe mu njila yo mulembe.”
80 And the child grew, and waxed strong in spirit, and was in the deserts till the day of his shewing unto Israel.
Woli, omwana oyo nakula nabha namanaga ge chinyamwoyo na ekae mwibhala kukinga olusiku lwo kubhonekana kwae ku Isilaeli.
