Luke 2
1 And it came to pass in those days that there went out a decree from Caesar Augustus, that all the world should be registered.
Henu mu magono aghu, jhatokili kwamba Kaisari Agusto ahomisi lilaghisu kujhelesya kujha jhitolibhwayi sensa jha bhanu bhoha bhabhiishi pa dunia.
2 (This registering was the first made while Quirinius was governor of Syria.)
Ejhe jhajhele sensa jha kwanza jhajhabhombiki wakati Krenio ndo gavana bhwa Siria.
3 And all went to be registered, each to his own city.
Efyo, kila mmonga akalota kumjini kwa muene kujhandikisya sensa.
4 And Joseph also went up from Galilee out of the city of Nazareth into Judaea, to the city of David, which is called Bethlehem, because he was of the house and lineage of David,
Ni muene Yusufu akabhoka kabhele mu mji bhwa Nazareti okhu Galilaya ni kusafiri Yudea mu mji bhwa Bethlehemu, bhwa umanyikene kama mji bhwa Daudi, kwandabha jhatokili mu lukholo lwa Daudi.
5 to be registered with Mary who had been betrothed to him, who was with child.
Alotili okhu kwijhandikisya pamonga ni Mariamu, ambajhe amposili na akajha ilolelela muana.
6 And it came to pass, while they were there, that the days for her delivery were completed.
Henu jhatokili kujha, bhobhajhele khola wakati bhwa muene bhwa kwifungula muana bhwa wadili.
7 And she brought forth her firstborn son, and wrapped him in swathing-clothes, and laid him in a manger, because there was no room for them in the inn.
Akahogola muana ghwa kigos, mzalibhwa bhwa muene bhwa kuanza, akan'syongosela ngobho mb'ele bhuoha kun'kenga muana ni mepu. Ndipo akambeka mu kihori kya kulesela bhanyama kwandabha jhajhelepi nafasi mu nyumba jha bhahesya.
8 And there were in the same country shepherds abiding in the field, and keeping watch over their flock by night.
Katika eneo e'lu, bhajhele bhachungaji bhabhatameghe kumigonda bhakajha bhilenda makundi gha kondoo bha bhene pakiru.
9 And an angel of the Lord came to them, and the glory of the Lord shone around them; and they were in great fear.
Ghafla, malaika bha Bwana akabhatokela, ni bhutukufu bhwa Bwana bhwa langele kubhasyongoka, na bhajhe ni bhuogha sana.
10 And the angel said to them, Fear not; for lo! I bring you good tidings of great joy, which shall be to the whole people;
Ndipo malaika akabhajobhela, “Musitili, kwa ndabha ni kabhaletela habari jhinofu ambajho jhileta furaha mbaha kwa bhanu bhoha.
11 for to you hath been born this day, in the city of David, a Saviour, who is the Christ, the Lord.
Lelu mwokozi ahogoliki kwandabha jhinu kumjini kwa Daudi! muene ndo Kristu Bwana!
12 And this shall be the sign to you: Ye shall find a babe wrapped in swathing-clothes, [[lying]] in a manger.
Ejhe, ndo ishara jha mwibetakupelibhwa, bhwa mwibetakunkolela muana akongibhu nghobho na agonili mu liholi lya kulesela bhanyama.”
13 And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising God, and saying,
Ghafla kwajhele ni kijeshi kibhaha lya kumbinguni lyaungena Ni malaika ojhu bhakansifu k'yara bhakajobha,
14 “Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace among men of good will!”
“Utukufu kwa K'yara j'ha ajhele kunani, ni amani ij'helayi pa duniani kwa bhoha bhaipendesibhwa nabhu.”
15 And it came to pass, when the angels had gone away from them into heaven, that the shepherds said one to another, Let us go at once to Bethlehem, and see that which hath come to pass, which the Lord hath made known to us.
Ikajha kwamba malaika bhobhamalikubhoka kulota kumbinguni, bhachungaji bhakajobhe sana bhene kwa bhene, “Tulotayi henu khola Bethlehemu, na tukalolayi khenu ekhe ambakyo kih'omili, ambakyo Bwana atujobhili.”
16 And they came with haste, and found Mary and Joseph, and the babe lying in the manger.
Bhakaharakisya khola, na bhan'kolili Mariamu ni Yusufu, na bhambwene muana agonili mu liholi lya kulesele bhanyama.
17 And when they had seen it, they made known abroad what had been told them concerning this child.
Na bhobhabhuene naha, bhakabhajulisha bhanu khela kyabhajobhibhu kuhusu muana.
18 And all who heard wondered at the things which were told them by the shepherds.
Bhoha bhabhepeliki habari ejhe bhasyangesibhu ni khela kyakyajobhibhu ni bhachungaji.
19 But Mary kept all these things, and pondered them in her heart.
Lakini Mariamu ajhendelili kufikiri kuhusu ghoha ghaamali kughap'eleka, aghatunzili mu muoyo ghwa muene.
20 And the shepherds returned, glorifying and praising God for all which they had heard and seen, as had been told them.
Bhachungaji bhakakerebhuka bhakantukusya ni kun'sifu k'yara kwandabha jha khila khenu kyabhamali kup'eleka ni kulola, kama tukyajhikajhele jhinenibhu kwa bhene.
21 And when eight days were completed for him to be circumcised, his name was called Jesus, the name given by the angel before he was conceived in the womb.
Bhojhifikili ligono lya nane na jhajhele ndo wakati bhwa kun'tahiri muana, bhakan'kuta lihina Yesu, lya amalikupelibhwa ni jhola malaika kabla jha luleme kut'ongibhwa mulileme.
22 And when the days of their purification according to the law of Moses were completed, they brought him to Jerusalem to present him to the Lord,
Zao lyalilondekeghe lya utakaso bho sipetili, kul'engana ni sheria jha Musa, Yusufu ni Mariamu bhakampeleka ku hekalu khola Yerusalemu kumb'eka palongolo pa Bwana.
23 as it is written in the law of the Lord: “Every first-born male shall be called holy to the Lord,”
Kama kyajhalembibhu mu sheria sya Bwana, “khila n'gosi jhaafungulibhu lileme ni ibetakukutibhwa jhaapisibhu bhakfu kwa Bwana.”
24 and to offer a sacrifice, according to what is directed in the law of the Lord: “A pair of turtle doves, or two young pigeons.”
Bhabhu ni bhene bhahidili kupisya sadaka kulengana ni khela kyakijobhibhwa mu sheria jha Bwana, Jozi jha jhebha au makinda mabhele gha njebha.”
25 And lo! there was a man in Jerusalem, whose name was Simeon; and he was a righteous and devout man, waiting for the consolation of Israel. And the Holy Spirit was upon him;
Langayi, pajhele ni munu mu Yerusalemu ambajhe lihina lya muene akutibhweghe Simeoni. Munu ojho ajhele mwenye haki ni mcha Mungu. Muene akajha ilendela kwandabha jha mfariji ghwa Israeli, ni Roho mtakatifu ajhele panani pa muene.
26 and it had been revealed to him by the Holy Spirit, that he should not see death before he had seen the Christ of the Lord.
Jhamali kufunulibhwa kwa muene kupetela Roho mtakatifu kujha muene ngaafwilepi kabla jha kumbona kristu Bwana.
27 And he came in the Spirit into the temple; and when the parents brought in the child Jesus, to do for him according to the custom of the law,
Ligono limonga ahidili mugati mu hekalu, alongosibhu ni Roho mtakatifu. Ambapo bhazazi bhandetili muana, Yesu, kumbombela ghala ghaghalondekejhe jha sheria,
28 he took him in his arms, and blessed God, and said,
Ndipo Simeoni ampokili mu mabhoko gha muene, ni kun'sifu k'yara ni kujobha,
29 Lord! now lettest thou thy servant depart in peace, according to thy word;
“Henu ruhusuayi n'tumishi ghwa jhobhi alotayi kwa amani Bwana, kulengana ni lilobhi lya jhobhi.
30 for mine eyes have seen thy salvation,
Kwa kujha mihu ghangu ghaubhwene wokovu bhwa jhobhi,
31 which thou hast prepared before the face of all the peoples;
ambabho bhubhonekene kwa mihu gha bhanu bhoha.
32 a light to enlighten the gentiles, and to be the glory of thy people Israel.
Muene ndo nuru kwandabha jha ufunuo kwa bhamataifa ni utukufu bhwa bhanu Israeli.”
33 And his father and his mother marveled at what was spoken concerning him.
Dadi ni Mabhu ghwa bhana bhasyangesibhu kwa mambo ghaghalongeliki juu jha bhene.
34 And Simeon blessed them, and said to Mary his mother, Behold, this child is appointed for the fall and rising of many in Israel, and for a sign that will be spoken against; —
Ndipo Simeoni akabhabariki ni kujobha Mariamu nyinamunu, “Pelekesiajhi kwa ndabha jha kujhagha ni kuokoka kwa bhanu bhingi mu Israeli na ndo ishara ambajho bhanu bhingi bhibeta kujhipinga.
35 yea, a sword will pierce through thine own soul, —that the thoughts of many hearts may be revealed.
Kabhele ndo upanga bhwawibeta kuhoma nafsi jha jhobhi ghwe muene, ili kwamba mabhwasu gha mioyo jha bhingi jhidhihirikayi”.
36 And there was Anna, a prophetess, daughter of Phanuel: of the tribe of Asher; she was of great age, and had lived with a husband seven years from her virginity;
Nabii n'dala jhaakutibhweghe Ana ajhele mu hekalu. Muene ajhele binti ghwa Fanueli kuhoma kabila lya Asheri. Ajhele ni miaka ghimehele sana. Ni muene atamili ni n'gosi kwa miaka sana baada jha kubhonana,
37 and she was a widow eighty-four years old, who never left the temple, worshipping with fastings and prayers night and day.
Na ndipo akajha mjane kwa miaka themanini na nne. Ni muene abhwayilepi kubhoka mu hekalu na akajha ijhendelela kumwabudu K'yara pamonga ni kufunga ni kus'oka, kiru ni musi.
38 And she came up at this very time, and gave thanks to God, and spoke of him to all that were looking for the redemption of Jerusalem.
Na kwa wakati obhu ahidili pala pa bhajhele akajhanda kun'shuru k'yara. Alongili kumhusu muana kwa khila munu ambajhe alendeleleghe ukombozi bhwa Yerusalemu.
39 And when they had performed all things according to the law of the Lord, they returned to Galilee, to their own city Nazareth.
Bho bhamalili khila khenu kya bhalondeghe kubhomba kulengana ni sheria jha Bwana, bhakakerebhuka Galilaya, kumjini kwa bhene, Nazareti.
40 And the child grew, and waxed strong, being filled with wisdom; and the grace of God was upon him.
Muana akholili, na ajhe ni nghofu, akajhongeseka katika hekima, ni neema jha K'yara jhajhele panani pa muene.
41 Now his parents used to go yearly to Jerusalem at the feast of the passover.
Bhazazi bha mwene khila mwaka bhalotili Yerusalemu kwandabha jha sikukuu jha Pasaka.
42 And when he was twelve years old, and they went up, after the custom of the feast,
Bhoajhe ni umri wa miaka kumi hi mibhele, bhakalota kabhele wakati muafaka kidesturi kwandabha jha sikukuu.
43 and had completed the days, on their returning, the child Jesus tarried behind in Jerusalem; and his parents did not know it,
Baada jha kubhakila magono ghoha kwandabha jha sikukuu bhajhandili kukerebhuka kunyumba. Lakini n'gosi Yesu abakili kunyuma m'ola mu Yerusalemu ni bhazazi bha muene bhamanyilepi e'le.
44 but, supposing him to be in the company, went a day's journey; and they sought him among their kinsfolk and acquaintance;
Bhadhanieghe ajhele mu likundi lya bhasafirieghe nalu, hivyo bhasafiri safari jha ligono. Ndipo bhakajhanda kundonda miongoni mwa bhalongo munu ni marafiki bha bhene.
45 and not finding him, they returned to Jerusalem in search of him.
Bhobhashindilu kun'kabha, bhakakerebhuka Yerusalemu ni kujhanda kundonda omu.
46 And it came to pass, that after three days they found him in the temple sitting in the midst of the teachers, both listening to them and asking them questions.
Jhatokili kwamba baada jha magono madatu, bhakan'kabha mu hekalu, akajha atamili pagati pa bhalimu, akabhap'elekesya ni kubhakhota maswali.
47 And all who heard him were astonished at his understanding and his answers.
Bhoha bhabhampelekisi bhasyangesibhu ni ufahamu bhwa muene ni majibu gha muene.
48 And when they saw him, they were amazed; and his mother said to him, Son, why hast thou thus dealt with us? behold, thy father and I have been seeking thee in much distress.
Bho bhambwene, bhastajabili. Nyinamunu akan'jobhela, “Mwanabhangu, kwandabha jhakiki ukatubhombela naha? Pelekesiajhi, Dadi waku ni nene tukulondili kwa wasiwasi mbaha.”
49 And he said to them, Why is it that ye have been seeking me? Did ye not know that I must be about my Father's business?
Akabhajobhela, “kwandabha jhakiki mnilondeghe? Mwamanyilepi kujha lazima nijhelayi mu nyumba jha dadi jhangu?
50 And they understood not what he spoke to them.
Lakini bhanjelibhu lepi kiki akimaanishieghe kwa malobhi aghu.
51 And he went down with them, and came to Nazareth, and was subject to them. And his mother kept all these things in her heart.
Ndipo akalota pamonga nabhu mpaka kunyumba Nazareti na ajhele mtii lwa bhene. Nyinamunu ahifadhili mambo ghoha mu muoyo ghwa muene.
52 And Jesus increased in wisdom and stature, and in favor with God and men.
Lakini Yesu ajhendelili kukhola katika hekima ni kimo, na ajhongesiki kuganikibhwa ni k'yara ni bhanu.
