Luke 1
1 Since many have undertaken to set in order a narrative concerning those matters which have been fulfilled among us,
Vangi vachi vava liki ku vika i nswanelo lye kande lyezo indava zichi zive zuzilizwa mukati ketu,
2 even as those who from the beginning were eyewitnesses and servants of the word delivered them to us,
uvu vo vulyo mu vava zituheli mi avo kuzwila ku matangizo ivali impanki ni vahikana ve ñusa.
3 it seemed good to me also, having traced the course of all things accurately from the first, to write to you in order, most excellent Theophilus;
Cwale kwangu name ivali kuvoneka kuva hande - kuganisisa hande inzila ye indava yezo zintu kuzwila kuma tangizo - kuñola indava ye nswanelo yako iwe, Theophilus yo sepahala.
4 that you might know the certainty concerning the things in which you were instructed.
Ili ku pangila kuti mwi zive vuniti vwezo zintu zimu va lutwa.
5 There was in the days of Herod, the king of Yehuda, a certain priest named Zekharya, of the division of Awiya. He had a wife of the daughters of Ahrun, and her name was Elishava.
Muma zuva a Heroda, simwine wa Judeya ku vali kwina mu purisita we zina lya Zakariya, ya vali kuzwa kwi inkauhanyo ya Abija. Mwi hyavwe avali kuzwa kuvana vechi kazana va Arunì, Izina lyakwe ivali nji Elizabeta.
6 They were both righteous before God, walking blamelessly in all the commandments and ordinances of the Lord.
Vonse vo vele vava shieme ha vusu vwa Ireza, ku kuteka zonse intaezo za Simwine.
7 But they had no child, because Elishava was barren, and they both were well advanced in years.
Kono kana vavena mwana kakuli Elizabeta kana vena luzalo, mi hape vonse chi vava supele ahulu he iyi inako.
8 Now it happened, while he was performing the priest's office before God in the order of his division,
Mi kuvezi kuchita kuti Zakaria avena mukwina kwa Ireza, kwi chilila ni kupanga iyo mintendo yovu purisita yava hewa mwi nswanelo ye inkauhanyo ya kwe.
9 according to the custom of the priest's office, his lot was to enter into the temple of the Lord and burn incense.
Kuya ke chizo choku keta kuti njo zuhi mu purisita yese a tende, ava ketwa kwa loto kuti e njile mwi tempele ya Simwine kuti a hise minunkiso.
10 And the whole crowd of people were praying outside at the hour of incense.
Chonse chichava cha vantu chiva kwete ku lapela hanze heyo inako minunkiso iva hiswa.
11 An angel of the Lord appeared to him, standing on the right side of the altar of incense.
Mi iñiloi lya Simwine livezi kuvoneka ha vusu vwake ni ku zimana ku vulyo vwe alutare ye minunkiso.
12 Zekharya was troubled when he saw him, and fear fell upon him.
Zakaria ha muvona, ava tilimuki mi lyowa livezi hali.
13 But the angel said to him, "Do not be afraid, Zekharya, because your request has been heard, and your wife, Elishava, will bear you a son, and you are to name him Yukhanan.
Kono i ñiloi chi lya ti kwali, “sanzi uvi ni lyowa, Zakaria, kakuti intapelo yako iva tekwa. Mwi hyenu Elizabeta mwa pepe mwana o mwisisu. Kamu sumpe izina lyakwe Johani.
14 You will have joy and gladness; and many will rejoice at his birth.
Ka muve ni ntabo ni kusanga, mi vangi vese va sangilile he mpepo yakwe.
15 For he will be great in the sight of the Lord, and he must never drink wine or strong drink, and he will be filled with the Rukha d'Qudsha, even from his mother's womb.
Kakuli mwave muntu mukando mu menso a Simwine. Sanzi na nywi i waine kapa zinywiwa zi kolete, mi mwe zule ni Luhuho lu Jolola ku zwilila mwi vumo li ba nyina.
16 He will turn many of the people of Israyel to the Lord, their God.
Mi vantu vangi va Isiraele kava sandulwe kwali Simwine wavo Ireza.
17 He will go before him in the spirit and power of Eliya, '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."
Mwa yende havusu bwe chifateho cha Simwine muluhuho ni ziho za Eliya. Mwa pange vovuti kupangila kuti a sandule inkulo za bashemi ve chikwame ku vana, ku pangila kuti vasa kuteki kava yende mu vutali vwa vantu va lukite - ku litukiseza kwa Simwine vantu valukisezwe iye.
18 Zekharya said to the angel, "How can I be sure of this? For I am an old man, and my wife is well advanced in years."
Zakariya cha wamba kwi ñiloi, “Ni wola kuzi ziva vule izi? kakuli chili ni Mukwame yo supele mi ni mwihyetu naye cho supele ahulu.
19 The angel answered him, "I am Gavriel, who stands in the presence of God. I was sent to speak to you, and to bring you this good news.
Mi iñiloi chila mwi taba ni ku wamba kwali, “njime Gaburiyele yo zimene mwikwina Ireza.”Nivaka tumwa ku kwiza kuwamba nawe, kukuletela aa makande ma lotu.
20 And look, you will be silent and not able to speak, until the day that these things will happen, because you did not believe my words, which will be fulfilled in their proper time."
“Cwale uvone, mo tontole, kese uwole kuwamba heisi izuva izi zintu hese nizi pangahale. Ichi nji kuti kana uva zumini manzwi angu, ese e zuzilizwe he nako i swanezi.
21 The people were waiting for Zekharya, and they were wondering why he was delayed in the temple.
Cwale vantu vava lindile Zakariya. Vava komeketwe kakuli avali kwi kele inako ingi mwi tempele.
22 When he came out, he could not speak to them, and they perceived that he had seen a vision in the temple. He continued making signs to them, and remained mute.
Kono haka zwa mo, kana vali ku wola ku wamba navo. Chiva bonisisa kuti ava voni i pono havali kwina mwi tempele. Ava zwili ku panga zi supo kuvali na shele u tontwele.
23 It happened, when the days of his service were fulfilled, he departed to his house.
Ku vezi kuva kuti mazuva akwe oku tenda ha amana, cha yenda kwi nzuvo yakwe.
24 After these days Elishava, his wife, conceived, and she hid herself five months, saying,
Kuzwa aa mazuva, mwi hyavwe Elizabeta ava hi menzi ma hya. Avali zwisi ku vantu ka mwezi i hinda iyanza. Cha wamba,
25 "Thus has the Lord done to me in the days in which he looked at me, to take away my disgrace among people."
“Izi za vani pangili Simwine ha vani loli ni chishemo ku pangila kuti a zwise maswavisisa angu ha vusu bwa bantu.”
26 Now in the sixth month, the angel Gavriel was sent from God to a city of Galila, named Natsrath,
Mu Mwezi we yanza ni kamwina, I ñiloi Gaburiyele liba tumwa ku zwa kwa Ireza kwi tolopo mwa Galileya i sumpwa Nazareta,
27 to a virgin pledged to be married to a man whose name was Yauseph, of the house of Dawid. The virgin's name was Maryam.
kwa kamwale yaba vikilizwe ku mukwame we zina lya Josefa. A vali ku wila ku luzuvo lwa Davida, kamwale izina lyakwe i vali nji Maria.
28 Having come in, the angel said to her, "Greetings, favored one. The Lord is with you."
Cheza kwali ni kuwamba, “Lumele, iwe yo shemuvitwe ahulu, Simwine wina nawe.”
29 But when she saw him, she was greatly troubled at the saying, and considered what kind of greeting this might be.
Kono ava lyangene ahulu cha manzwi akwe, ava hupuli kuti iwola kuva mulumelisezo nzi uwu.
30 The angel said to her, "Do not be afraid, Maryam, for you have found favor with God.
Iñiloi chila wamba kwali, “Sanzi utiyi, Maria kakuli cho va wani chishemo ni Ireza.”
31 And look, you will conceive in your womb, and bring forth a son, and will call his name 'Yeshua.'
Mi u vwene, mo pange mwana mwi vumo mi mo pepe muswisu. Mo sumpe izina lyakwe “Jesu.”
32 He will be great, and will be called the Son of the Most High. The Lord God will give him the throne of his father, Dawid,
Mwa ve mukando mi mwa sumpwe kuti Mwana wa Sikwiwulu. Simwine Ireza mwa muhe chipula chavu simwine chika zwilila ku vasikulwe vave sikulwe Davida.
33 and he will reign over the house of Yaquv forever. There will be no end to his Kingdom." (aiōn g165)
Mwa vuse inzubo ya Jakovo kuya kwile, mi kese kuve nima mani ku muvuso wakwe. (aiōn g165)
34 Maryam said to the angel, "How can this be, seeing I am a virgin?"
Maria cha wamba kwi ñiloi, “Kai pangahale vule, kuvona kanini ku kopana ni mukwame?”,
35 The angel answered her, "The Rukha d'Qudsha will come on you, and the power of the Most High will overshadow you. Therefore also the holy one who is born will be called the Son of God.
Iñiloi chilye tava niku wamba kwali, Luhuho Lujolola ka lwize hako, miziho za Sikwiwulu ka zize hako. Cwale iye uzo yo jolola yenke yese apepwe mwa sumpwe Mwana wa Ireza.
36 And look, Elishava, your relative, also has conceived a son in her old age; and this is the sixth month with her who was called barren.
Mi ubwene, mukwako Elizabeta naye aba pepi mwana o muswisu mu busupali. Uwu mwezi we yanza ni konke wali, uzo yabali kusumpwa kusa pepa.
37 For with God nothing will be impossible."
Kakuli kakwina chese nichi sa woleki ni Ireza.
38 And Maryam said, "See, the handmaid of the Lord; be it to me according to your word." The angel departed from her.
Maria chati “ubwene, ni muhikana wo mwanakazana wa Simwine.” Kuve vulyo kwangu kakuya che ñusa lyako. Mi iñiloi chilya musiya.
39 Maryam arose in those days and went into the hill country with haste, into a city of Yehuda,
Linu Maria ava vuki mwa awo mazuba, mi cha hwelela kuya kwi nkanda ye ziwulu, kwi tolopo mwa Judeya.
40 and entered into the house of Zekharya and greeted Elishava.
Ava yendi mwi nzuvo ya Zakariya mi chaka lumelisa Elizabeta.
41 It happened, when Elishava heard Maryam's greeting, that the baby leaped in her womb, and Elishava was filled with the Rukha d'Qudsha.
Cwale kuva pangahali kuti Elizabeta ha zuwa mulumelisezo wa Maria, mbumbu mwi vumo lyakwe ava shili, mi Elizabeta ave zulwa Luhuho lu Jolola.
42 She called out with a loud voice, and said, "Blessed are you among women, and blessed is the fruit of your womb.
Cha koza inzwi lyakwe ni kuwamba kaku huwa “Iwe njo fwiyoletwe mukati kavanakazi, mi ni muselo we vumo lyako ufuyoletwe.”
43 Why am I so favored, that the mother of my Lord should come to me?
Mi chinzi hayi va pangahali kwangu kuti vanyina va Simwine wangu va swanela kwiza kwangu?
44 For look, when the voice of your greeting came into my ears, the baby leaped in my womb for joy.
Mu vwene, mulumo we ntumeliso zako ha ziza ku matwi angu, mbumbu yo wina mwi vumo lyangu ava shili nche intabo.
45 Blessed is she who believed, for there will be a fulfillment of the things which have been spoken to her from the Lord."
Mi uzo u fwiyoletwe yaba zumini kuti ka kuve ni kwizuzilizwa kwezo zintu ziva wambwa kwali ku zwilila kwa Simwine.
46 Maryam said, "My soul magnifies the Lord.
Maria cha wamba, “Luhuho lwangu lu temba Simwine”,
47 And my spirit rejoices in God my Savior,
mi luhuho lwangu lusanga mwe Ireza mutusi wangu.
48 for he has looked at the humble state of his servant girl. For look, from now on all generations will call me blessed.
Chaba loli ha mazimo avolele hansi a muhikana wakwe wo mwanakazana. Cwale mu vone, ku zwila hahanu onse masika ka a nisumpe kuti ni fwiyoletwe.
49 For he who is mighty has done great things for me, and holy is his name.
Kakuli iye yo wina ziho chavani pangili zintu zikando mi izina lyakwe li jolola.
50 His mercy is for generations of generations on those who fear him.
Chishemo chakwe chikalilile ku mahasi ni mahasi kwabo vamu tiya.
51 He has shown strength with his arm. He has scattered the proud in the imagination of their hearts.
Chava tondezi ziho zakwe kache yanza: chaba hasani avo vavali kulikumuseza mihupulo ye nkulo zavo.
52 He has put down the mighty from their thrones and has exalted the lowly.
Chava soheli hansi vaana vavene simwine vechi kwame ha vuyendisi vwavo. mi chava nyamuni avo ba mazimo mavi.
53 He has filled the hungry with good things. He has sent the rich away empty.
Chave zuzi avo va fwile inzala ni zintu zilotu, kono va humite avava tumini kule niva sena chintu.
54 He has given help to Israyel, his servant, that he might remember mercy,
Chava hi intuso kwa Isiraele muhikana wakwe, kupangila ku hupula ku tondeza chishemo
(mwava teli ku veshetu) kwa Aburahama niba mwi chilila kuya uko kusena mamanimani. (aiōn g165)
56 Maryam stayed with her about three months, and then returned to her house.
Maria ave kali ni Elizabeta ka miezi yo tatwe mi cha volela kwi nzuvo yakwe.
57 Now the time that Elishava should give birth was fulfilled, and she brought forth a son.
Hanu inako chi iva sikite ya Elizabeta kuti ahwizumuke muchiche mi ava pepi mwanaswisu.
58 Her neighbors and her relatives heard that the Lord had magnified his mercy towards her, and they rejoiced with her.
Va vambene naye niva kwakwe vava zuwi kuti Simwine ava mutondenzi chishemo chakwe chikando kwali mi vava sangi naye.
59 It happened on the eighth day, that they came to circumcise the child; and they would have called him Zekharya, after the name of the father.
Hanu kuvezi kupangahala he zuva li hinda iyanza ni to tatwe vava kezi njeva muchite mupato muchiche. Ni vava musumpi “Zakariya,” ku zwila izina li vesi.
60 His mother answered, "Not so; but he will be called Yukhanan."
Kono va nyina chive tava ni kuwamba “Ne, mwa sumpwe Johani.”
61 They said to her, "There is no one among your relatives who is called by this name."
Chiva wamba kwali, “kakwina yenke mukati kava mwenu yo sumpwa keli zina.”
62 They made signs to his father, what he would have him called.
Vava pangi zi supo kuvesi kupangila kuti vesi ve zive muvavali kusakila kuti a hewe izina.
63 And he asked for a writing tablet, and wrote, "His name is Yukhanan." And they were all amazed.
Vesi chiba kumbila chiñolelo mi chiva ñola, “izina lyakwe nji Johani”. Vonse vava komokwa.
64 His mouth was opened immediately, and his tongue freed, and he spoke, blessing God.
Haho vulyo kaholo kakwe kave yalulwa mi lulimi lwake luva lukululwa. Ava wambi niku lumba Ireza.
65 Fear came on all who lived around them, and all these sayings were talked about throughout all the hill country of Yehuda.
Lyowa livezi havo vavali kwi kala muma bali avo. Zonse izi zintu ziva twala monse mwi inkanda za ziwulu za Judeya.
66 All who heard them laid them up in their heart, saying, "What then will this child be?" The hand of the Lord was with him.
Mi vonse vava vazuwi vava ziviki mwi nkulo zavo, kuwamba, “cwale uzu muhwile mwave chi?” Kakuli iyanza lya Simwine livena naye.
67 His father, Zekharya, was filled with the Rukha d'Qudsha, and prophesied, saying,
Vesi Zakariya ave zwile ni Luhuho lu Jolola mi cha polofita, kuwamba,
68 "Blessed be the Lord, the God of Israyel, for he has visited and worked redemption for his people;
“Simwine a lumbwe, Ireza wa Isiraele, kakuli avezi kwiza ku tusa mi ava kwanisi kuvozekezwa kwa bantu bakwe”
69 and has raised up a horn of salvation for us in the house of his servant Dawid
Chava tuzimikili luziya lwo kuhaza mwi nzuvo yo muhikana wakwe Davida,
hava wambi cha kaholo zama polofita va jolola bakwe va vena mwi nako ya kale kale. (aiōn g165)
71 salvation from our enemies, and from the hand of all who hate us;
Mwa lete vu hazo vuzwilila ku zila zetu mi ni ku mayanza avo batu toyete.
72 to show mercy towards our fathers, to remember his holy covenant,
Mwa pange vovuti ku totendeza chishemo chakwe ku veshetu mi ni ku hupula ku jolola kwe ntumelelano yakwe,
73 the oath which he spoke to Avraham, our father,
ku lisumina kwava wambi kwa Aburahama ishe etu.
74 to grant to us that we, being delivered out of the hand of our enemies, should serve him without fear,
Ava sepisi kutuha kakuli tuba zwiswa muma yanza e zila zetu, katu mutendele niku sena lyowa,
75 In holiness and righteousness before him all our days.
muku jolola ni muku shiama ha vusu bwake onse mazuva etu.
76 And you, child, will be called a prophet of the Most High, for you will go before the Lord to make ready his ways,
Eni, nawe, mwana, mo sumpwe mupolofita wa Isiwulu, kakuti moye ha vusu bwe chifateho cha Simwine kuli tukisa inzila zakwe, ku lukisa bantu cha kukeza kwakwe,
77 to give knowledge of salvation to his people by the forgiveness of their sins,
kwiza kuha inzivo yo kuhazwa ku vantu vakwe kaku swalelwa kwa zivi zavo.
78 because of the tender mercy of our God, whereby the dawn from on high will visit us,
Ichi kachi pangahale bakeñisa chishemo cha Ireza wetu, bakeñisa ke zuva lizwa kule lyese lize kuku tutusa.
79 to shine on those who sit in darkness and the shadow of death; to guide our feet into the way of peace."
Ku venya havo ve kele mwi fifi navo vena mu munzunde we fu. Mwa pange vovuti kutondeza matende etu mwi nzila ye nkozo.
80 The child was growing, and becoming strong in spirit, and was in the desert until the day of his public appearance to Israyel.
Hanu mwana ava kuli niku kola mu luhuho, mi avena mumu zuka heisi izuva hali vonekisa kwa Isiraele.
