< Luke 1 >

1 SINCE many have been disposed to write narratives of those events, of which we have full assurance,
پْرَتھَمَتو یے ساکْشِنو واکْیَپْرَچارَکاشْچاسَنْ تےسْماکَں مَدھْیے یَدْیَتْ سَپْرَمانَں واکْیَمَرْپَیَنْتِ سْمَ
2 as they delivered them to us, who from the first were eye-witnesses and ministers of the word;
تَدَنُسارَتونْییپِ بَہَوَسْتَدْورِتّانْتَں رَچَیِتُں پْرَورِتّاح۔
3 it seemed proper for me also, as I had examined them all accurately, to write out the whole, methodically, for thee, excellent Theophilus:
اَتَایوَ ہے مَہامَہِمَتھِیَپھِلْ تْوَں یا یاح کَتھا اَشِکْشْیَتھاسْتاساں درِڈھَپْرَمانانِ یَتھا پْراپْنوشِ
4 that thou mayest know the truth of the statements, which thou hast been taught.
تَدَرْتھَں پْرَتھَمَمارَبھْیَ تانِ سَرْوّانِ جْناتْواہَمَپِ اَنُکْرَماتْ سَرْوَّورِتّانْتانْ تُبھْیَں لیکھِتُں مَتِمَکارْشَمْ۔
5 In the days of Herod the king of Judaea, there was a certain priest, whose name was Zachariah, of the ministration of the house of Abijah; and his wife was of the daughters of Aaron, and her name was Elisabeth.
یِہُودادیشِییَہیرودْنامَکے راجَتْوَں کُرْوَّتِ اَبِییَیاجَکَسْیَ پَرْیّایادھِکارِی سِکھَرِیَنامَکَ ایکو یاجَکو ہارونَوَںشودْبھَوا اِلِیشیواکھْیا
6 And they were both upright before God, and walked in all his commandments, and in the righteousness of the Lord, without reproach.
تَسْیَ جایا دْواوِمَو نِرْدوشَو پْرَبھوح سَرْوّاجْنا وْیَوَسْتھاشْچَ سَںمَنْیَ اِیشْوَرَدرِشْٹَو دھارْمِّکاواسْتامْ۔
7 But they had no child, because Elisabeth was barren: and they were both advanced in life.
تَیوح سَنْتانَ ایکوپِ ناسِیتْ، یَتَ اِلِیشیوا بَنْدھْیا تَو دْواویوَ ورِدّھاوَبھَوَتامْ۔
8 And it occurred, that as he performed the priestly functions in the order of his ministration before the Lord,
یَدا سْوَپَرْیّانُکْرَمینَ سِکھَرِیَ اِیشْواسْیَ سَمَکْشَں یاجَکِییَں کَرْمَّ کَروتِ
9 according to the usage of the priesthood, it fell to him to offer the incense. And he went into the temple of the Lord,
تَدا یَجْنَسْیَ دِنَپَرِپایّا پَرَمیشْوَرَسْیَ مَنْدِرے پْرَویشَکالے دھُوپَجْوالَنَں کَرْمَّ تَسْیَ کَرَنِییَماسِیتْ۔
10 and the whole multitude of the people were praying without, at the time of incense.
تَدّھُوپَجْوالَنَکالے لوکَنِوَہے پْرارْتھَناں کَرْتُں بَہِسْتِشْٹھَتِ
11 And the angel of the Lord appeared to Zachariah, standing on the right side of the altar of incense.
سَتِ سِکھَرِیو یَسْیاں ویدْیاں دھُوپَں جْوالَیَتِ تَدَّکْشِنَپارْشْوے پَرَمیشْوَرَسْیَ دُوتَ ایکَ اُپَسْتھِتو دَرْشَنَں دَدَو۔
12 And when Zachariah saw him, he was agitated, and fear fell upon him.
تَں درِشْٹْوا سِکھَرِیَ اُدْوِوِجے شَشَنْکے چَ۔
13 And the angel said to him: Fear not, Zachariah; for thy prayer is heard, and thy wife Elisabeth will bear thee a son, and thou shalt call his name John.
تَدا سَ دُوتَسْتَں بَبھاشے ہے سِکھَرِیَ ما بھَیسْتَوَ پْرارْتھَنا گْراہْیا جاتا تَوَ بھارْیّا اِلِیشیوا پُتْرَں پْرَسوشْیَتے تَسْیَ نامَ یوہَنْ اِتِ کَرِشْیَسِ۔
14 And thou wilt have joy and gladness: and many will rejoice at his birth.
کِنْچَ تْوَں سانَنْدَح سَہَرْشَشْچَ بھَوِشْیَسِ تَسْیَ جَنْمَنِ بَہَوَ آنَنْدِشْیَنْتِ چَ۔
15 For he will be great before the Lord; and he will not drink wine nor strong drink, and will be filled with the Holy Spirit even from his mother's womb.
یَتو ہیتوح سَ پَرَمیشْوَرَسْیَ گوچَرے مَہانْ بھَوِشْیَتِ تَتھا دْراکْشارَسَں سُراں وا کِمَپِ نَ پاسْیَتِ، اَپَرَں جَنْمارَبھْیَ پَوِتْریناتْمَنا پَرِپُورْنَح
16 And many of the children of Israel will he convert to the Lord their God.
سَنْ اِسْراییلْوَںشِییانْ اَنیکانْ پْرَبھوح پَرَمیشْوَرَسْیَ مارْگَمانیشْیَتِ۔
17 And he will go before him, in the spirit and power of Elijah the prophet, and will turn the heart of the fathers unto the children, and them that are disobedient to the knowledge of the righteous, and will prepare a perfect people for the Lord.
سَنْتانانْ پْرَتِ پِترِناں مَناںسِ دھَرْمَّجْنانَں پْرَتْیَناجْناگْراہِنَشْچَ پَراوَرْتَّیِتُں، پْرَبھوح پَرَمیشْوَرَسْیَ سیوارْتھَمْ ایکاں سَجِّتَجاتِں وِدھاتُنْچَ سَ ایلِیَرُوپاتْمَشَکْتِپْراپْتَسْتَسْیاگْرے گَمِشْیَتِ۔
18 And Zachariah said to the angel: How shall I know this? For I am old, and my wife is advanced in life.
تَدا سِکھَرِیو دُوتَمَوادِیتْ کَتھَمیتَدْ ویتْسْیامِ؟ یَتوہَں ورِدّھو مَمَ بھارْیّا چَ ورِدّھا۔
19 The angel answered, and said to him: I am Gabriel, who stand before God; and I am sent to converse with thee, and to tell thee these things.
تَتو دُوتَح پْرَتْیُواچَ پَشْییشْوَرَسْیَ ساکْشادْوَرْتِّی جِبْراییلْناما دُوتوہَں تْوَیا سَہَ کَتھاں گَدِتُں تُبھْیَمِماں شُبھَوارْتّاں داتُنْچَ پْریشِتَح۔
20 Henceforth thou wilt be dumb, and unable to speak, until the day when these things take place: because thou believedst not my words, which will be fulfilled in their time.
کِنْتُ مَدِییَں واکْیَں کالے پھَلِشْیَتِ تَتْ تْوَیا نَ پْرَتِیتَمْ اَتَح کارَنادْ یاوَدیوَ تانِ نَ سیتْسْیَنْتِ تاوَتْ تْوَں وَکْتُںمَشَکْتو مُوکو بھَوَ۔
21 And the people were standing and waiting for Zachariah; and they wondered at his tarrying so long in the temple.
تَدانِیں یے یے لوکاح سِکھَرِیَمَپَیکْشَنْتَ تے مَدھْییمَنْدِرَں تَسْیَ بَہُوِلَمْبادْ آشْچَرْیَّں مینِرے۔
22 And when Zachariah came forth, he could not speak with them: and they understood that he had seen a vision in the temple: and he made many signs to them, and remained speechless.
سَ بَہِراگَتو یَدا کِمَپِ واکْیَں وَکْتُمَشَکْتَح سَنْکیتَں کرِتْوا نِحشَبْدَسْتَسْیَو تَدا مَدھْییمَنْدِرَں کَسْیَچِدْ دَرْشَنَں تینَ پْراپْتَمْ اِتِ سَرْوّے بُبُدھِرے۔
23 And when the days of his ministration were accomplished, he came to his house.
اَنَنْتَرَں تَسْیَ سیوَنَپَرْیّایے سَمْپُورْنے سَتِ سَ نِجَگیہَں جَگامَ۔
24 And it was after those days, that Elisabeth his wife conceived. And she secluded herself five months; and she said:
کَتِپَیَدِنیشُ گَتیشُ تَسْیَ بھارْیّا اِلِیشیوا گَرْبّھَوَتِی بَبھُووَ
25 These things hath the Lord done for me, in the days when he looked upon me to take away my reproach among men.
پَشْچاتْ سا پَنْچَماسانْ سَںگوپْیاکَتھَیَتْ لوکاناں سَمَکْشَں مَماپَمانَں کھَنْڈَیِتُں پَرَمیشْوَرو مَیِ درِشْٹِں پاتَیِتْوا کَرْمّیدرِشَں کرِتَوانْ۔
26 And in the sixth month, the angel Gabriel was sent by God into Galilee, to a city named Nazareth,
اَپَرَنْچَ تَسْیا گَرْبّھَسْیَ شَشْٹھے ماسے جاتے گالِیلْپْرَدیشِییَناسَرَتْپُری
27 to a virgin espoused to a man whose name was Joseph, of the house of David; and the virgin's name was Mary.
دایُودو وَںشِییایَ یُوشَپھْنامْنے پُرُشایَ یا مَرِیَمْنامَکُمارِی واگْدَتّاسِیتْ تَسْیاح سَمِیپَں جِبْراییلْ دُوتَ اِیشْوَرینَ پْرَہِتَح۔
28 And the angel entered the house, and said to her: Peace to thee, thou full of grace! The Lord is with thee: and blessed art thou among women.
سَ گَتْوا جَگادَ ہے اِیشْوَرانُگرِہِیتَکَنْیے تَوَ شُبھَں بھُویاتْ پْرَبھُح پَرَمیشْوَرَسْتَوَ سَہایوسْتِ نارِیناں مَدھْیے تْوَمیوَ دھَنْیا۔
29 And when she saw him, she was agitated by his speech; and she pondered, what this salutation could mean.
تَدانِیں سا تَں درِشْٹْوا تَسْیَ واکْیَتَ اُدْوِجْیَ کِیدرِشَں بھاشَنَمِدَمْ اِتِ مَنَسا چِنْتَیاماسَ۔
30 And the angel said to her: Fear not, Mary; for thou hast found favor with God.
تَتو دُوتووَدَتْ ہے مَرِیَمْ بھَیَں ماکارْشِیح، تْوَیِ پَرَمیشْوَرَسْیانُگْرَہوسْتِ۔
31 For lo, thou wilt conceive in thy womb, and wilt bear a son, and wilt call his name Jesus.
پَشْیَ تْوَں گَرْبّھَں دھرِتْوا پُتْرَں پْرَسوشْیَسے تَسْیَ نامَ یِیشُرِتِ کَرِشْیَسِ۔
32 He will be great, and will be called the Son of the Most High, and the Lord God will give him the throne of his father David.
سَ مَہانْ بھَوِشْیَتِ تَتھا سَرْوّیبھْیَح شْریشْٹھَسْیَ پُتْرَ اِتِ کھْیاسْیَتِ؛ اَپَرَں پْرَبھُح پَرَمیشْوَرَسْتَسْیَ پِتُرْدایُودَح سِںہاسَنَں تَسْمَے داسْیَتِ؛
33 And he will reign over the house of Jacob for ever; and of his reign there will be no end. (aiōn g165)
تَتھا سَ یاکُوبو وَںشوپَرِ سَرْوَّدا راجَتْوَں کَرِشْیَتِ، تَسْیَ راجَتْوَسْیانْتو نَ بھَوِشْیَتِ۔ (aiōn g165)
34 And Mary said to the angel: How can this be, as I have not known a man?
تَدا مَرِیَمْ تَں دُوتَں بَبھاشے ناہَں پُرُشَسَنْگَں کَرومِ تَرْہِ کَتھَمیتَتْ سَمْبھَوِشْیَتِ؟
35 The angel replied, and said to her: The Holy Spirit will come, and the power of the Most High will overshadow thee; therefore he that is born of thee is holy, and will be called the Son of God.
تَتو دُوتوکَتھَیَتْ پَوِتْرَ آتْما تْواماشْرایِشْیَتِ تَتھا سَرْوَّشْریشْٹھَسْیَ شَکْتِسْتَووپَرِ چھایاں کَرِشْیَتِ تَتو ہیتوسْتَوَ گَرْبّھادْ یَح پَوِتْرَبالَکو جَنِشْیَتے سَ اِیشْوَرَپُتْرَ اِتِ کھْیاتِں پْراپْسْیَتِ۔
36 And lo, Elisabeth thy kinswoman, even she too hath conceived a son in her old age; and this is the sixth month with her who is called barren.
اَپَرَنْچَ پَشْیَ تَوَ جْناتِرِلِیشیوا یاں سَرْوّے بَنْدھْیامَوَدَنْ اِدانِیں سا وارْدّھَکْیے سَنْتانَمیکَں گَرْبّھےدھارَیَتْ تَسْیَ شَشْٹھَماسوبھُوتْ۔
37 Because nothing is difficult for God.
کِمَپِ کَرْمَّ ناسادھْیَمْ اِیشْوَرَسْیَ۔
38 Mary said: Behold, I am the handmaid of the Lord; be it to me, according to thy word. And the angel departed from her.
تَدا مَرِیَمْ جَگادَ، پَشْیَ پْرَبھیرَہَں داسِی مَہْیَں تَوَ واکْیانُسارینَ سَرْوَّمیتَدْ گھَٹَتامْ؛ اَنَنَتَرَں دُوتَسْتَسْیاح سَمِیپاتْ پْرَتَسْتھے۔
39 And Mary arose in those days, and went hastily to the mountain district, to a city of Judaea;
اَتھَ کَتِپَیَدِناتْ پَرَں مَرِیَمْ تَسْماتْ پَرْوَّتَمَیَپْرَدیشِییَیِہُودایا نَگَرَمیکَں شِیگھْرَں گَتْوا
40 and entered the house of Zachariah, and saluted Elisabeth.
سِکھَرِیَیاجَکَسْیَ گرِہَں پْرَوِشْیَ تَسْیَ جایامْ اِلِیشیواں سَمْبودھْیاوَدَتْ۔
41 And it was so, that when Elisabeth heard the salutation of Mary, the child leaped in her womb, and she was filled with the Holy Spirit.
تَتو مَرِیَمَح سَمْبودھَنَواکْیے اِلِیشیوایاح کَرْنَیوح پْرَوِشْٹَماتْرے سَتِ تَسْیا گَرْبّھَسْتھَبالَکو نَنَرْتَّ۔ تَتَ اِلِیشیوا پَوِتْریناتْمَنا پَرِپُورْنا سَتِی
42 And she cried out with a loud voice, and said to Mary: Blessed art thou among women; and blessed is the fruit of thy womb.
پْروچَّیرْگَدِتُماریبھے، یوشِتاں مَدھْیے تْوَمیوَ دھَنْیا، تَوَ گَرْبّھَسْتھَح شِشُشْچَ دھَنْیَح۔
43 And whence is this to me, that the mother of my Lord should come to me?
تْوَں پْرَبھورْماتا، مَمَ نِویشَنے تْوَیا چَرَناوَرْپِتَو، مَمادْیَ سَوبھاگْیَمیتَتْ۔
44 For lo, as the voice of thy salutation fell upon my ears, with great joy the child leaped in my womb.
پَشْیَ تَوَ واکْیے مَمَ کَرْنَیوح پْرَوِشْٹَماتْرے سَتِ مَمودَرَسْتھَح شِشُرانَنْدانْ نَنَرْتَّ۔
45 And happy is she that believed; for there will be a fulfillment of those things that were told her by the Lord.
یا سْتْرِی وْیَشْوَسِیتْ سا دھَنْیا، یَتو ہیتوسْتاں پْرَتِ پَرَمیشْوَروکْتَں واکْیَں سَرْوَّں سِدّھَں بھَوِشْیَتِ۔
46 And Mary said: My soul doth magnify the Lord:
تَدانِیں مَرِیَمْ جَگادَ۔ دھَنْیَوادَں پَریشَسْیَ کَروتِ مامَکَں مَنَح۔
47 and my spirit rejoiceth in God the author of my life.
مَماتْما تارَکیشے چَ سَمُلّاسَں پْرَگَچّھَتِ۔
48 For he hath looked upon the humble condition of his hand maid; and lo, henceforth all generations will ascribe blessedness to me.
اَکَروتْ سَ پْرَبھُ رْدُشْٹِں سْوَداسْیا دُرْگَتِں پْرَتِ۔ پَشْیادْیارَبھْیَ ماں دھَنْیاں وَکْشْیَنْتِ پُرُشاح سَدا۔
49 And He that is mighty hath done for me great things; and holy is his name.
یَح سَرْوَّشَکْتِمانْ یَسْیَ ناماپِ چَ پَوِتْرَکَں۔ سَ ایوَ سُمَہَتْکَرْمَّ کرِتَوانْ مَنِّمِتَّکَں۔
50 And his mercy is on them that fear him, for generations and posterities.
یے بِبھْیَتِ جَناسْتَسْماتْ تیشاں سَنْتانَپَںکْتِشُ۔ اَنُکَمْپا تَدِییا چَ سَرْوَّدَیوَ سُتِشْٹھَتِ۔
51 He hath wrought victory with his arm; and hath scattered the proud in the imagination of their heart.
سْوَباہُبَلَتَسْتینَ پْراکاشْیَتَ پَراکْرَمَح۔ مَنَحکُمَنْتْرَناسارْدّھَں وِکِیرْیَّنْتےبھِمانِنَح۔
52 He hath cast down the mighty from their thrones, and hath exalted the lowly.
سِںہاسَنَگَتالّوکانْ بَلِنَشْچاوَروہْیَ سَح۔ پَدیشُوچّیشُ لوکاںسْتُ کْشُدْرانْ سَںسْتھاپَیَتْیَپِ۔
53 The hungry hath he satisfied with good things, and the rich hath he sent away empty.
کْشُدھِتانْ مانَوانْ دْرَوْیَیرُتَّمَیح پَرِتَرْپْیَ سَح۔ سَکَلانْ دھَنِنو لوکانْ وِسرِجیدْ رِکْتَہَسْتَکانْ۔
54 He hath aided Israel his servant, and remembered his mercy,
اِبْراہِیمِ چَ تَدْوَںشے یا دَیاسْتِ سَدَیوَ تاں۔ سْمرِتْوا پُرا پِترِناں نو یَتھا ساکْشاتْ پْرَتِشْرُتَں۔ (aiōn g165)
55 (as he spoke with the fathers, ) with Abraham and his seed, for ever. (aiōn g165)
اِسْراییلْسیوَکَسْتینَ تَتھوپَکْرِیَتے سْوَیَں۔۔
56 And Mary remained with Elisabeth about three months, and returned to her home.
اَنَنْتَرَں مَرِیَمْ پْرایینَ ماسَتْرَیَمْ اِلِیشیوَیا سَہوشِتْوا وْیاگھُیَّ نِجَنِویشَنَں یَیَو۔
57 And Elisabeth's time of bringing forth arrived; and she bore a son.
تَدَنَنْتَرَمْ اِلِیشیوایاح پْرَسَوَکالَ اُپَسْتھِتے سَتِ سا پُتْرَں پْراسوشْٹَ۔
58 And her neighbors and relatives heard that the Lord had magnified his mercy to her, and they rejoiced with her.
تَتَح پَرَمیشْوَرَسْتَسْیاں مَہانُگْرَہَں کرِتَوانْ ایتَتْ شْرُتْوا سَمِیپَواسِنَح کُٹُمْباشْچاگَتْیَ تَیا سَہَ مُمُدِرے۔
59 And it occurred, that on the eighth day they came to circumcise the child. And they called him by the name of his father, Zachariah.
تَتھاشْٹَمے دِنے تے بالَکَسْیَ تْوَچَں چھیتُّمْ ایتْیَ تَسْیَ پِترِنامانُرُوپَں تَنّامَ سِکھَرِیَ اِتِ کَرْتُّمِیشُح۔
60 And his mother answered and said: Not so; but John, shall he be called.
کِنْتُ تَسْیَ ماتاکَتھَیَتْ تَنَّ، ناماسْیَ یوہَنْ اِتِ کَرْتَّوْیَمْ۔
61 And they said to her: There is no one among thy kindred called by that name.
تَدا تے وْیاہَرَنْ تَوَ وَںشَمَدھْیے نامیدرِشَں کَسْیاپِ ناسْتِ۔
62 And they made signs to his father, how he would have him named.
تَتَح پَرَں تَسْیَ پِتَرَں سِکھَرِیَں پْرَتِ سَنْکیتْیَ پَپْرَچّھُح شِشوح کِں نامَ کارِشْیَتے؟
63 And he asked for a tablet, and wrote, and said: John is his name. And every one was surprised.
تَتَح سَ پھَلَکَمیکَں یاچِتْوا لِلیکھَ تَسْیَ نامَ یوہَنْ بھَوِشْیَتِ۔ تَسْماتْ سَرْوّے آشْچَرْیَّں مینِرے۔
64 And immediately his mouth was opened, and his tongue; and he spoke, and praised God.
تَتْکْشَنَں سِکھَرِیَسْیَ جِہْواجاڈْیےپَگَتے سَ مُکھَں وْیادایَ سْپَشْٹَوَرْنَمُچّارْیَّ اِیشْوَرَسْیَ گُنانُوادَں چَکارَ۔
65 And fear came upon all their neighbors; and these things were talked of in all the mountain district of Judaea.
تَسْماچَّتُرْدِکْسْتھاح سَمِیپَواسِلوکا بھِیتا ایوَمیتاح سَرْوّاح کَتھا یِہُودایاح پَرْوَّتَمَیَپْرَدیشَسْیَ سَرْوَّتْرَ پْرَچارِتاح۔
66 And all who heard, pondered them in their heart, and said: What will this child be? And the hand of the Lord was with him.
تَسْماتْ شْروتارو مَنَحسُ سْتھاپَیِتْوا کَتھَیامْبَبھُووُح کِیدرِشویَں بالو بھَوِشْیَتِ؟ اَتھَ پَرَمیشْوَرَسْتَسْیَ سَہایوبھُوتْ۔
67 And Zachariah his father was filled with the Holy Spirit, and prophesied, and said:
تَدا یوہَنَح پِتا سِکھَرِیَح پَوِتْریناتْمَنا پَرِپُورْنَح سَنْ ایتادرِشَں بھَوِشْیَدْواکْیَں کَتھَیاماسَ۔
68 Blessed be the Lord God of Israel, who hath visited his people, and wrought redemption for them:
اِسْراییلَح پْرَبھُ رْیَسْتُ سَ دھَنْیَح پَرَمیشْوَرَح۔ اَنُگرِہْیَ نِجالّوکانْ سَ ایوَ پَرِموچَییتْ۔
69 And hath raised up a horn of redemption for us, in the house of David his servant:
وِپَکْشَجَنَہَسْتیبھْیو یَتھا موچْیامَہے وَیَں۔ یاوَجِّیوَنْچَ دھَرْمّینَ سارَلْیینَ چَ نِرْبھَیاح۔
70 as he spake by the mouth of his holy prophets, who were of old, (aiōn g165)
سیوامَہَے تَمیوَیکَمْ ایتَتْکارَنَمیوَ چَ۔ سْوَکِییَں سُپَوِتْرَنْچَ سَںسْمرِتْیَ نِیَمَں سَدا۔
71 that he would redeem us from our enemies, and from the hand of all that hate us.
کرِپَیا پُرُشانْ پُورْوّانْ نِکَشارْتھاتُّ نَح پِتُح۔ اِبْراہِیمَح سَمِیپے یَں شَپَتھَں کرِتَوانْ پُرا۔
72 And he hath exercised his mercy to our fathers, and hath remembered his holy covenants,
تَمیوَ سَپھَلَں کَرْتَّں تَتھا شَتْرُگَنَسْیَ چَ۔ رِتِییاکارِنَشْچَیوَ کَریبھْیو رَکْشَنایَ نَح۔
73 and the oath that he sware to Abraham our father, that he would grant to us,
سرِشْٹیح پْرَتھَمَتَح سْوِییَیح پَوِتْرَے رْبھاوِوادِبھِح۔ (aiōn g165)
74 to be redeemed from the hand of our enemies; and that we should worship before him, without fear,
یَتھوکْتَوانْ تَتھا سْوَسْیَ دایُودَح سیوَکَسْیَ تُ۔
75 all our days, in rectitude and uprightness.
وَںشے تْراتارَمیکَں سَ سَمُتْپادِتَوانْ سْوَیَمْ۔
76 And thou, child, wilt be called a prophet of the Most High; for thou wilt go before the face of the Lord, to prepare his way,
اَتو ہے بالَکَ تْوَنْتُ سَرْوّیبھْیَح شْریشْٹھَ ایوَ یَح۔ تَسْیَیوَ بھاوِوادِیتِ پْرَوِکھْیاتو بھَوِشْیَسِ۔ اَسْماکَں چَرَنانْ کْشیمے مارْگے چالَیِتُں سَدا۔ ایوَں دھْوانْتےرْتھَتو مرِتْیوشْچھایایاں یے تُ مانَواح۔
77 that he may give the knowledge of life to his people, and forgiveness of their sins,
اُپَوِشْٹاسْتُ تانیوَ پْرَکاشَیِتُمیوَ ہِ۔ کرِتْوا مَہانُکَمْپاں ہِ یامیوَ پَرَمیشْوَرَح۔
78 through the compassion of the mercy of our God; whereby the day-spring from on high will visit us,
اُورْدْوّاتْ سُورْیَّمُدایَّیواسْمَبھْیَں پْراداتُّ دَرْشَنَں۔ تَیانُکَمْپَیا سْوَسْیَ لوکاناں پاپَموچَنے۔
79 to give light to them that sit in darkness, and in the shadow of death; and to guide our feet into the way of peace.
پَرِتْرانَسْیَ تیبھْیو ہِ جْنانَوِشْرانَنایَ چَ۔ پْرَبھو رْمارْگَں پَرِشْکَرْتُّں تَسْیاگْرایِی بھَوِشْیَسِ۔۔
80 And the child grew, and was strengthened in spirit. And he was in the wilderness, until the day of his manifestation to Israel.
اَتھَ بالَکَح شَرِیرینَ بُدّھیا چَ وَرْدّھِتُماریبھے؛ اَپَرَنْچَ سَ اِسْراییلو وَںشِییَلوکاناں سَمِیپے یاوَنَّ پْرَکَٹِیبھُوتَسْتاسْتاوَتْ پْرانْتَرے نْیَوَسَتْ۔
