< 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.
اَپَرَنْچَ تَسْمِنْ کالے راجْیَسْیَ سَرْوّیشاں لوکاناں نامانِ لیکھَیِتُمْ اَگَسْتَکَیسَرَ آجْناپَیاماسَ۔
2 (This registering was the first made while Quirinius was governor of Syria.)
تَدَنُسارینَ کُرِینِیَنامَنِ سُرِیادیشَسْیَ شاسَکے سَتِ نامَلیکھَنَں پْراریبھے۔
3 And all went to be registered, each to his own city.
اَتو ہیتو رْنامَ لیکھِتُں سَرْوّے جَناح سْوِییَں سْوِییَں نَگَرَں جَگْمُح۔
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,
تَدانِیں یُوشَپھْ نامَ لیکھِتُں واگْدَتَّیا سْوَبھارْیَّیا گَرْبّھَوَتْیا مَرِیَما سَہَ سْوَیَں دایُودَح سَجاتِوَںشَ اِتِ کارَنادْ گالِیلْپْرَدیشَسْیَ ناسَرَتْنَگَرادْ
5 to be registered with Mary who had been betrothed to him, who was with child.
یِہُوداپْرَدیشَسْیَ بَیتْلیہَماکھْیَں دایُودْنَگَرَں جَگامَ۔
6 And it came to pass, while they were there, that the days for her delivery were completed.
اَنْیَچَّ تَتْرَ سْتھانے تَیوسْتِشْٹھَتوح سَتو رْمَرِیَمَح پْرَسُوتِکالَ اُپَسْتھِتی
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.
سا تَں پْرَتھَمَسُتَں پْراسوشْٹَ کِنْتُ تَسْمِنْ واسَگرِہے سْتھانابھاوادْ بالَکَں وَسْتْرینَ ویشْٹَیِتْوا گوشالایاں سْتھاپَیاماسَ۔
8 And there were in the same country shepherds abiding in the field, and keeping watch over their flock by night.
اَنَنْتَرَں یے کِیَنْتو میشَپالَکاح سْوَمیشَوْرَجَرَکْشایَے تَتْپْرَدیشے سْتھِتْوا رَجَنْیاں پْرانْتَرے پْرَہَرِنَح کَرْمَّ کُرْوَّنْتِ،
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.
تیشاں سَمِیپَں پَرَمیشْوَرَسْیَ دُوتَ آگَتْیوپَتَسْتھَو؛ تَدا چَتُشْپارْشْوے پَرَمیشْوَرَسْیَ تیجَسَح پْرَکاشِتَتْواتْ تےتِشَشَنْکِرے۔
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;
تَدا سَ دُوتَ اُواچَ ما بھَیشْٹَ پَشْیَتادْیَ دایُودَح پُرے یُشْمَنِّمِتَّں تْراتا پْرَبھُح کھْرِیشْٹوجَنِشْٹَ،
11 for to you hath been born this day, in the city of David, a Saviour, who is the Christ, the Lord.
سَرْوّیشاں لوکاناں مَہانَنْدَجَنَکَمْ اِمَں مَنْگَلَورِتّانْتَں یُشْمانْ جْناپَیامِ۔
12 And this shall be the sign to you: Ye shall find a babe wrapped in swathing-clothes, [[lying]] in a manger.
یُویَں (تَتْسْتھانَں گَتْوا) وَسْتْرَویشْٹِتَں تَں بالَکَں گوشالایاں شَیَنَں دْرَکْشْیَتھَ یُشْمانْ پْرَتِیدَں چِہْنَں بھَوِشْیَتِ۔
13 And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising God, and saying,
دُوتَ اِماں کَتھاں کَتھِتَوَتِ تَتْراکَسْماتْ سْوَرْگِییاح پرِتَنا آگَتْیَ کَتھامْ اِماں کَتھَیِتْویشْوَرَسْیَ گُنانَنْوَوادِشُح، یَتھا،
14 “Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace among men of good will!”
سَرْوّورْدْوَّسْتھَیرِیشْوَرَسْیَ مَہِما سَمْپْرَکاشْیَتاں۔ شانْتِرْبھُویاتْ پرِتھِوْیاسْتُ سَنْتوشَشْچَ نَرانْ پْرَتِ۔۔
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.
تَتَح پَرَں تیشاں سَنِّدھے رْدُوتَگَنے سْوَرْگَں گَتے میشَپالَکاح پَرَسْپَرَمْ اَویچَنْ آگَچّھَتَ پْرَبھُح پَرَمیشْوَرو یاں گھَٹَناں جْناپِتَوانْ تَسْیا یاتھَرْیَں جْناتُں وَیَمَدھُنا بَیتْلیہَمْپُرَں یامَح۔
16 And they came with haste, and found Mary and Joseph, and the babe lying in the manger.
پَشْچاتْ تے تُورْنَں وْرَجِتْوا مَرِیَمَں یُوشَپھَں گوشالایاں شَیَنَں بالَکَنْچَ دَدرِشُح۔
17 And when they had seen it, they made known abroad what had been told them concerning this child.
اِتّھَں درِشْٹْوا بالَکَسْیارْتھے پْروکْتاں سَرْوَّکَتھاں تے پْراچارَیانْچَکْرُح۔
18 And all who heard wondered at the things which were told them by the shepherds.
تَتو یے لوکا میشَرَکْشَکاناں وَدَنیبھْیَسْتاں وارْتّاں شُشْرُوُسْتے مَہاشْچَرْیَّں مینِرے۔
19 But Mary kept all these things, and pondered them in her heart.
کِنْتُ مَرِیَمْ ایتَتْسَرْوَّگھَٹَناناں تاتْپَرْیَّں وِوِچْیَ مَنَسِ سْتھاپَیاماسَ۔
20 And the shepherds returned, glorifying and praising God for all which they had heard and seen, as had been told them.
تَتْپَشْچادْ دُوتَوِجْنَپْتانُرُوپَں شْرُتْوا درِشْٹْوا چَ میشَپالَکا اِیشْوَرَسْیَ گُنانُوادَں دھَنْیَوادَنْچَ کُرْوّاناح پَراورِتْیَ یَیُح۔
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.
اَتھَ بالَکَسْیَ تْوَکْچھیدَنَکالےشْٹَمَدِوَسے سَمُپَسْتھِتے تَسْیَ گَرْبّھَسْتھِتیح پُرْوَّں سْوَرْگِییَدُوتو یَتھاجْناپَیَتْ تَدَنُرُوپَں تے تَنّامَدھییَں یِیشُرِتِ چَکْرِرے۔
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,
تَتَح پَرَں مُوسالِکھِتَوْیَوَسْتھایا اَنُسارینَ مَرِیَمَح شُچِتْوَکالَ اُپَسْتھِتے،
23 as it is written in the law of the Lord: “Every first-born male shall be called holy to the Lord,”
"پْرَتھَمَجَح سَرْوَّح پُرُشَسَنْتانَح پَرَمیشْوَرے سَمَرْپْیَتاں،" اِتِ پَرَمیشْوَرَسْیَ وْیَوَسْتھَیا
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.”
یِیشُں پَرَمیشْوَرے سَمَرْپَیِتُمْ شاسْتْرِییَوِدھْیُکْتَں کَپوتَدْوَیَں پاراوَتَشاوَکَدْوَیَں وا بَلِں داتُں تے تَں گرِہِیتْوا یِرُوشالَمَمْ آیَیُح۔
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;
یِرُوشالَمْپُرَنِواسِی شِمِیونّاما دھارْمِّکَ ایکَ آسِیتْ سَ اِسْراییلَح سانْتْوَنامَپیکْشْیَ تَسْتھَو کِنْچَ پَوِتْرَ آتْما تَسْمِنّاوِرْبھُوتَح۔
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.
اَپَرَں پْرَبھُنا پَرَمیشْوَرینابھِشِکْتے تْراتَرِ تْوَیا نَ درِشْٹے تْوَں نَ مَرِشْیَسِیتِ واکْیَں پَوِتْرینَ آتْمَنا تَسْمَ پْراکَتھْیَتَ۔
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,
اَپَرَنْچَ یَدا یِیشوح پِتا ماتا چَ تَدَرْتھَں وْیَوَسْتھانُرُوپَں کَرْمَّ کَرْتُّں تَں مَنْدِرَمْ آنِنْیَتُسْتَدا
28 he took him in his arms, and blessed God, and said,
شِمِیونْ آتْمَنَ آکَرْشَنینَ مَنْدِرَماگَتْیَ تَں کْروڈے نِدھایَ اِیشْوَرَسْیَ دھَنْیَوادَں کرِتْوا کَتھَیاماسَ، یَتھا،
29 Lord! now lettest thou thy servant depart in peace, according to thy word;
ہے پْرَبھو تَوَ داسویَں نِجَواکْیانُسارَتَح۔ اِدانِینْتُ سَکَلْیانو بھَوَتا سَںوِسرِجْیَتامْ۔
30 for mine eyes have seen thy salvation,
یَتَح سَکَلَدیشَسْیَ دِیپْتَیے دِیپْتِرُوپَکَں۔
31 which thou hast prepared before the face of all the peoples;
اِسْراییلِییَلوکَسْیَ مَہاگَورَوَرُوپَکَں۔
32 a light to enlighten the gentiles, and to be the glory of thy people Israel.
یَں تْرایَکَں جَنانانْتُ سَمُّکھے تْوَمَجِیجَنَح۔ سَایوَ وِدْیَتےسْماکَں دھْرَوَں نَیَنَنَگوچَرے۔۔
33 And his father and his mother marveled at what was spoken concerning him.
تَدانِیں تینوکْتا ایتاح سَکَلاح کَتھاح شْرُتْوا تَسْیَ ماتا یُوشَپھْ چَ وِسْمَیَں میناتے۔
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; —
تَتَح پَرَں شِمِیونْ تیبھْیَ آشِشَں دَتّوا تَنْماتَرَں مَرِیَمَمْ اُواچَ، پَشْیَ اِسْراییلو وَںشَمَدھْیے بَہُوناں پاتَنایوتّھاپَنایَ چَ تَتھا وِرودھَپاتْرَں بھَوِتُں، بَہُوناں گُپْتَمَنوگَتاناں پْرَکَٹِیکَرَنایَ بالَکویَں نِیُکْتوسْتِ۔
35 yea, a sword will pierce through thine own soul, —that the thoughts of many hearts may be revealed.
تَسْماتْ تَواپِ پْراناح شُولینَ وْیَتْسْیَنْتے۔
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;
اَپَرَنْچَ آشیرَسْیَ وَںشِییَپھِنُوییلو دُہِتا ہَنّاکھْیا اَتِجَرَتِی بھَوِشْیَدْوادِنْییکا یا وِواہاتْ پَرَں سَپْتَ وَتْسَرانْ پَتْیا سَہَ نْیَوَسَتْ تَتو وِدھَوا بھُوتْوا چَتُرَشِیتِوَرْشَوَیَحپَرْیَّنَتَں
37 and she was a widow eighty-four years old, who never left the temple, worshipping with fastings and prayers night and day.
مَنْدِرے سْتھِتْوا پْرارْتھَنوپَواسَیرْدِوانِشَمْ اِیشْوَرَمْ اَسیوَتَ ساپِ سْتْرِی تَسْمِنْ سَمَیے مَنْدِرَماگَتْیَ
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.
پَرَمیشْوَرَسْیَ دھَنْیَوادَں چَکارَ، یِرُوشالَمْپُرَواسِنو یاوَنْتو لوکا مُکْتِمَپیکْشْیَ سْتھِتاسْتانْ یِیشورْورِتّانْتَں جْناپَیاماسَ۔
39 And when they had performed all things according to the law of the Lord, they returned to Galilee, to their own city Nazareth.
اِتّھَں پَرَمیشْوَرَسْیَ وْیَوَسْتھانُسارینَ سَرْوّیشُ کَرْمَّسُ کرِتیشُ تَو پُنَشْچَ گالِیلو ناسَرَتْنامَکَں نِجَنَگَرَں پْرَتَسْتھاتے۔
40 And the child grew, and waxed strong, being filled with wisdom; and the grace of God was upon him.
تَتْپَشْچادْ بالَکَح شَرِیرینَ ورِدّھِمیتْیَ جْنانینَ پَرِپُورْنَ آتْمَنا شَکْتِماںشْچَ بھَوِتُماریبھے تَتھا تَسْمِنْ اِیشْوَرانُگْرَہو بَبھُووَ۔
41 Now his parents used to go yearly to Jerusalem at the feast of the passover.
تَسْیَ پِتا ماتا چَ پْرَتِوَرْشَں نِسْتاروتْسَوَسَمَیے یِرُوشالَمَمْ اَگَچّھَتامْ۔
42 And when he was twelve years old, and they went up, after the custom of the feast,
اَپَرَنْچَ یِیشَو دْوادَشَوَرْشَوَیَسْکے سَتِ تَو پَرْوَّسَمَیَسْیَ رِیتْیَنُسارینَ یِرُوشالَمَں گَتْوا
43 and had completed the days, on their returning, the child Jesus tarried behind in Jerusalem; and his parents did not know it,
پارْوَّنَں سَمْپادْیَ پُنَرَپِ وْیاگھُیَّ یاتَح کِنْتُ یِیشُرْبالَکو یِرُوشالَمِ تِشْٹھَتِ۔ یُوشَپھْ تَنْماتا چَ تَدْ اَوِدِتْوا
44 but, supposing him to be in the company, went a day's journey; and they sought him among their kinsfolk and acquaintance;
سَ سَنْگِبھِح سَہَ وِدْیَتَ ایتَچَّ بُدْوّا دِنَیکَگَمْیَمارْگَں جَگْمَتُح۔ کِنْتُ شیشے جْناتِبَنْدھُوناں سَمِیپے مرِگَیِتْوا تَدُدّےشَمَپْراپْیَ
45 and not finding him, they returned to Jerusalem in search of him.
تَو پُنَرَپِ یِرُوشالَمَمْ پَراورِتْیاگَتْیَ تَں مرِگَیانْچَکْرَتُح۔
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.
اَتھَ دِنَتْرَیاتْ پَرَں پَنْڈِتاناں مَدھْیے تیشاں کَتھاح شرِنْوَنْ تَتّوَں پرِچّھَںشْچَ مَنْدِرے سَمُپَوِشْٹَح سَ تابھْیاں درِشْٹَح۔
47 And all who heard him were astonished at his understanding and his answers.
تَدا تَسْیَ بُدّھیا پْرَتْیُتَّرَیشْچَ سَرْوّے شْروتارو وِسْمَیَماپَدْیَنْتے۔
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.
تادرِشَں درِشْٹْوا تَسْیَ جَنَکو جَنَنِی چَ چَمَچَّکْرَتُح کِنْچَ تَسْیَ ماتا تَمَوَدَتْ، ہے پُتْرَ، کَتھَماواں پْرَتِیتّھَں سَماچَرَسْتْوَمْ؟ پَشْیَ تَوَ پِتاہَنْچَ شوکاکُلَو سَنْتَو تْوامَنْوِچّھاوَح سْمَ۔
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?
تَتَح سووَدَتْ کُتو مامْ اَنْوَیچّھَتَں؟ پِتُرْگرِہے مَیا سْتھاتَوْیَمْ ایتَتْ کِں یُوابھْیاں نَ جْنایَتے؟
50 And they understood not what he spoke to them.
کِنْتُ تَو تَسْیَیتَدْواکْیَسْیَ تاتْپَرْیَّں بودّھُں ناشَکْنُتاں۔
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.
تَتَح پَرَں سَ تابھْیاں سَہَ ناسَرَتَں گَتْوا تَیورْوَشِیبھُوتَسْتَسْتھَو کِنْتُ سَرْوّا ایتاح کَتھاسْتَسْیَ ماتا مَنَسِ سْتھاپَیاماسَ۔
52 And Jesus increased in wisdom and stature, and in favor with God and men.
اَتھَ یِیشو رْبُدّھِح شَرِیرَنْچَ تَتھا تَسْمِنْ اِیشْوَرَسْیَ مانَوانانْچانُگْرَہو وَرْدّھِتُمْ آریبھے۔
