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.
Ary tamin’ izany andro izany dia nisy didy navoak’ i Aogosto Kaisara hampanoratra ny anaran’ ny vahoaka rehetra amin’ ny fanjakany.
2 (This registering was the first made while Quirinius was governor of Syria.)
(Izany no fanoratana voalohany natao fony Kyrenio nanapaka tany Syria.)
3 And all went to be registered, each to his own city.
Dia samy nankany amin’ ny tanànany avy izy rehetra mba hosoratana.
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,
Ary Josefa koa niakatra avy tany Galilia, dia avy tao an-tanàna Nazareta, hankany Jodia, ho ao an-tanànan’ i Davida, iza atao hoe Betlehema (satria avy tamin’ ny taranak’ i Davida sy ny mpianakaviny),
5 to be registered with Mary who had been betrothed to him, who was with child.
mba hosoratana izy sy Maria fofom-badiny, izay efa bevohoka.
6 And it came to pass, while they were there, that the days for her delivery were completed.
Ary raha nitoetra teo Izy, dia tonga ny andro hahavelomany.
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.
Ary niteraka ny Lahimatoany izy, dia nohodidininy lamban-jaza ka nampandriny teo amin’ ny fihinanam-bilona; fa tsy nisy nitoerany tao an-tranom-bahiny.
8 And there were in the same country shepherds abiding in the field, and keeping watch over their flock by night.
Ary nisy mpiandry ondry tamin’ izany tany izany nitoetra tany an-tsaha nitandrina ny ondriny tamin’ ny alina.
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.
Ary nisy anjelin’ ny Tompo nitsangana teo anilany, ary ny voninahitry ny Tompo nanelatrelatra manodidina azy, ka raiki-tahotra indrindra izy.
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;
Ary hoy ny anjely taminy: Aza matahotra; fa, indro, milaza teny soa mahafaly aminareo aho, dia fifaliana lehibe izay ho an’ ny olona rehetra;
11 for to you hath been born this day, in the city of David, a Saviour, who is the Christ, the Lord.
fa Mpamonjy no teraka ho anareo anie ao an-tanànan’ i Davida, dia Kristy Tompo.
12 And this shall be the sign to you: Ye shall find a babe wrapped in swathing-clothes, [[lying]] in a manger.
Ary izao no ho famantarana ho anareo: ianareo hahita Zazakely voahodidina lamban-jaza sady mandry ao am-pihinanam-bilona;
13 And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising God, and saying,
Ary nisy anjely maro be avy any an-danitra niseho tampoka niaraka tamin’ ilay anjely teo ka nidera an’ Andriamanitra nanao hoe:
14 “Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace among men of good will!”
Voninahitra any amin’ ny avo Indrindra ho an’ Andriamanitra! Ary fiadanana ho etỳ ambonin’ ny tany amin’ ny olona ankasitrahany.
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.
Ary tamin’ izany rehefa niala teo aminy ireo anjely ireo ka nankany an-danitra, dia niresaka ireo lehilahy mpiandry ondry ka nanao hoe: Andeha isika hankany Betlehema ka hizaha izany zavatra vao tonga izany, izay nampahafantarin’ ny Tompo antsika.
16 And they came with haste, and found Mary and Joseph, and the babe lying in the manger.
Dia nandeha faingana izy ka nahita an’ i Maria sy Josefa, ary ny Zazakely nandry teo am-pihinanam-bilona.
17 And when they had seen it, they made known abroad what had been told them concerning this child.
Ary nony efa nahita izy, dia nampiely izay teny nolazaina taminy ny amin’ izany Zaza izany.
18 And all who heard wondered at the things which were told them by the shepherds.
Ary izay rehetra nandre dia gaga tamin’ izay zavatra nolazain’ ny mpiandry ondry taminy.
19 But Mary kept all these things, and pondered them in her heart.
Fa Maria kosa nitadidy izany teny rehetra izany ka nieritreritra azy tao am-pony.
20 And the shepherds returned, glorifying and praising God for all which they had heard and seen, as had been told them.
Ary ny mpiandry ondry niverina nankalaza ny nidera an’ Andriamanitra noho ny zavatra rehetra izay reny ny hitany, araka izay nolazaina taminy.
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.
Ary rehefa tapitra ny havaloana, ka hoforana ny Zaza, dia nataony hoe Jesosy ny anarany, araka ilay nataon’ ny anjely, fony tsy mbola torontoronina tao an-kibo Izy.
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,
Ary rehefa tapitra ny andro fidiovany, araka ny lalàn’ i Mosesy, dia nitondra Azy niakatra tany Jerosalema izy mba hatolotra ho an’ ny Tompo
23 as it is written in the law of the Lord: “Every first-born male shall be called holy to the Lord,”
araka ny voasoratra ao amin’ ny lalàn’ ny Tompo hoe: Ny lahy voalohan-teraka rehetra hatao hoe masìna ho an’ i Jehovah.
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.”
ary mba hanatitra fanatitra araka izay voalaza ao amin’ ny lalàn’ ny Tompo hoe: domohina roa, na zana-boromailala roa.
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;
Ary, indro, nisy lehilahy atao hoe Simeona tao Jerosalema; ary marina sady mpivavaka tsara izany lehilahy izany ka niandry ny fampiononana ny Isiraely; ary ny Fanahy Masìna dia tao aminy.
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.
Ary efa nambaran’ ny Fanahy Masìna taminy fa tsy hahita fahafatesana izy mandra-pahitany ny Kristin’ ny Tompo.
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,
Ary nentin’ ny Fanahy Masìna niditra teo an-kianjan’ ny tempoly izy; ary rehefa nampidirin’ ny ray aman-dreniny Jesosy zaza mba hanaovany araka ny fomban’ ny lalàna ny amin’ ny zaza,
28 he took him in his arms, and blessed God, and said,
dia nitrotro Azy izy ka nidera an’ Andriamanitra nanao hoe:
29 Lord! now lettest thou thy servant depart in peace, according to thy word;
Tompo ô, ankehitriny ny mpanomponao dia alefanao amin’ ny fiadanana Araka ny teninao;
30 for mine eyes have seen thy salvation,
Fa ny masoko efa nahita ny famonjenao,
31 which thou hast prepared before the face of all the peoples;
Izay namboarinao teo anatrehan’ ny firenena rehetra,
32 a light to enlighten the gentiles, and to be the glory of thy people Israel.
Dia fahazavana hahazava ny firenena sady voninahitry ny Isiraely olonao.
33 And his father and his mother marveled at what was spoken concerning him.
Dia gaga ny ray aman-dreniny noho ny teny nilazana Azy.
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; —
Ary Simeona nitso-drano azy ireo ka nanao tamin’ i Maria, renin’ ny Zaza, hoe: Indro, Ity Zaza ity no voatendry ho fandavoana sy ho fananganana ny maro ao amin’ ny Isiraely ary ho famantarana holavina
35 yea, a sword will pierce through thine own soul, —that the thoughts of many hearts may be revealed.
ary ny fanahinao aza dia hotsatohana sabatra ― mba haseho ny hevitry ny fo maro.
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;
Ary nisy mpaminanivavy anankiray, dia Ana, zanakavavin’ i Fanoela, avy tamin’ ny firenen’ i Asera; efa anti-panahy tokoa izy ary efa nitoetra tamin’ ny vadiny fito taona taorian’ ny naha-virijina azy,
37 and she was a widow eighty-four years old, who never left the temple, worshipping with fastings and prayers night and day.
ary efa mpitondratena tokony ho efatra amby valo-polo taona; ary tsy niala teo an-kianjan’ ny tempoly izy, fa nanompo tamin’ ny fifadian-kanina sy ny fivavahana andro aman’ alina.
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.
Ary nony niditra tamin’ izany ora izany izy, dia nisaotra an’ Andriamanitra ka nilaza Azy tamin’ izay rehetra niandry ny fanavotana tao Jerosalema.
39 And when they had performed all things according to the law of the Lord, they returned to Galilee, to their own city Nazareth.
Ary rehefa vitany ny zavatra rehetra araka ny lalàn’ ny Tompo, dia niverina tany Galilia izy, dia tao Nazareta tanànany.
40 And the child grew, and waxed strong, being filled with wisdom; and the grace of God was upon him.
Ary ny Zaza dia nitombo ka nihahery sady feno fahendrena; ary ny fahasoavan’ Andriamanitra no tao aminy.
41 Now his parents used to go yearly to Jerusalem at the feast of the passover.
Ary ny ray aman-dreniny nankany Jerosalema isan-taona, raha avy ny andro firavoravoana amin’ ny Paska.
42 And when he was twelve years old, and they went up, after the custom of the feast,
Ary rehefa roa ambin’ ny folo taona Jesosy, dia niakatra izy ireo, araka ny fanao amin’ ny andro firavoravoana.
43 and had completed the days, on their returning, the child Jesus tarried behind in Jerusalem; and his parents did not know it,
Ary rehefa tapitra izany andro izany, ka nody izy, Jesosy zaza dia mbola nitoetra tany Jerosalema ihany, nefa tsy fantatry ny ray aman-dreniny izany;
44 but, supposing him to be in the company, went a day's journey; and they sought him among their kinsfolk and acquaintance;
ary satria nataony fa niaraka tamin’ ny niara-dia taminy Izy, dia nandeha lalana indray andro izy vao nitady Azy tamin’ ny havany sy ny olom-pantany.
45 and not finding him, they returned to Jerusalem in search of him.
Ary nony tsy nahita Azy izy, dia niverina ho any Jerosalema nitady Azy.
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.
Ary rehefa afaka hateloana, dia hitany teo an-kianjan’ ny tempoly Izy nipetraka teo afovoan’ ny mpampianatra ka nihaino sady nanontany azy.
47 And all who heard him were astonished at his understanding and his answers.
Ary talanjona izay rehetra nandre Azy noho ny fahalalany sy ny famaliany.
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.
Ary raha nahita Azy izy, dia talanjona, ka hoy ny reniny taminy: Anaka, nahoana no nanao toy izay taminay Hianao? He! izato alahelon-drainao sy izaho nitady Anao!
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?
Fa hoy Izy taminy: Nahoana no nitady Ahy ianareo? tsy fantatrareo va fa tsy maintsy ho eto an-tranon’ ny Raiko Aho?
50 And they understood not what he spoke to them.
Nefa tsy azon’ ireo ny teny izay nolazainy taminy.
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.
Ary niara-nidina taminy nankany Nazareta Izy ka nanoa azy. Ary ny reniny nitahiry izany teny rehetra izany tao am-pony.
52 And Jesus increased in wisdom and stature, and in favor with God and men.
Ary Jesosy nitombo saina sy tena sady nandroso fitia tamin’ Andriamanitra sy ny olona.
