Luke 2
1 About that time the Emperor Augustus commanded that ([his officials must] write down the names/[a census be taken]) of all the people who lived in countries [controlled] by the Roman [government] {that the Roman [government controlled]}, [so that the government could collect taxes from them].
| لەو ڕۆژانەدا لە ئۆگستۆس قەیسەرەوە فەرمانێک دەرچوو، کە هەموو دانیشتووانی ئیمپڕاتۆریەتیەکەی ناونووس بکرێت. |
2 That was the first time that they (wrote down the names/took a census) in Syria [province, which included Judea district]. They did this while Quirinius was the governor of the province.
| ئەمە یەکەم ناونووسین بوو، کاتێک کیرینیۆس فەرمانڕەوای سوریا بوو. |
3 Every person had to go to the town where his [most famous ancestor] had lived, so that [the officials] could write down their names.
| ئیتر هەرکەس بۆ ناونووسین دەچووە شاری خۆی. |
4 So, because Joseph was a descendant of [King] David, he went up from Nazareth, the town in Galilee [district where he lived], to the town of Bethlehem in Judea [district]. That was the town where [King] David [grew up].
| یوسفیش لە جەلیل لە شاری ناسیرەوە بەرەو یەهودیا سەرکەوت بۆ شارەکەی داود کە پێی دەگوترێ بێت‌لەحم، چونکە لە بنەماڵە و تیرەی داود بوو، |
5 Joseph went with Mary, who [was considered] {whom [people considered]} [to be] his wife, who was now pregnant. They went so that they could put his name and Mary’s name [in the record book].
| تاکو لەگەڵ مریەم ناونووس بکرێن کە دەستگیرانی بوو و سکی هەبوو. |
6 When they arrived [in Bethlehem], there was no place for them to stay in the house where travelers stay. [So they stayed in a cattle shed]. When the time for Mary to give birth arrived, she gave birth to her first son there. She wrapped him in strips of cloth and placed him in a trough where [people] put food for the animals.
| کە لەوێ بوون، کاتی منداڵبوونی هات. |
| جا کوڕە نۆبەرەکەی بوو، قۆنداغی کرد و لە ئاخوڕێکدا داینا، چونکە هیچ ژوورێکیان بۆ نوستن دەست نەکەوت. |
8 That night, there were [some] shepherds who were taking care of their sheep [as usual] in the fields near [Bethlehem].
| لەو ناوچەیە شوان هەبوون لە دەشت دەمانەوە و شەوان ئێشکیان لە مێگەلەکەیان دەگرت. |
9 An angel from God appeared to them. A great light (from the Lord/from God) shone on them and around them. [So] they became very afraid.
| فریشتەیەکی یەزدان بۆیان دەرکەوت و شکۆمەندی یەزدان لە دەوریان درەوشایەوە، بەمە ترسێکی زۆریان لێ نیشت. |
10 But the angel said to them, “Do not be afraid! I have come to tell you good news, which will [make you] very happy! This message is for everyone [to hear].
| فریشتەکە پێی گوتن: «مەترسن، ئەوا مژدەی خۆشییەکی گەورەتان دەدەمێ کە بۆ هەموو گەلە. |
11 [The message is that] today a baby has been born in [Bethlehem, the town where King] David grew up. That baby will [eventually] save you [from the guilt of your sins]! He is the Messiah, [your] Lord!
| ئەمڕۆ لە شاری داود ڕزگارکەرێکتان بۆ لەدایک بوو، ئەویش مەسیحی خاوەن شکۆیە. |
12 I will tell you how [you will recognize him] (OR, how you will know [that what I say is true]): [In Bethlehem] you will find a baby who has been wrapped {[whose mother] has wrapped him} in strips of cloth and placed in a trough where [people] put food for the animals.”
| ئەمەش نیشانەیە بۆتان، مەلۆتکەیەک دەبینن لەناو ئاخوڕێک دانراوە.» |
13 Suddenly a large group of angels from heaven appeared and joined the other angel. They all praised God, singing/saying,
| لەناکاو لەگەڵ فریشتەکە لەشکرێکی گەورەی ئاسمانی دەرکەوت و ستایشی خودایان دەکرد و دەیانگوت: |
14 “May [all the angels] in the highest heaven praise God! And on the earth may the people to whom God has shown his favor have peace [with him]!”
| «شکۆ بۆ خودا لە ئاسمان، لەسەر زەویش ئاشتی بۆ ئەوانەی جێی ڕەزامەندی ئەون.» |
15 After the angels left them [and returned] to heaven, the shepherds said to each other, “Let’s go to Bethlehem to see this [wonderful] thing that has happened, which (the Lord/God) has told us about!”
| کاتێک فریشتەکان بەرەو ئاسمان بەجێیان هێشتن، شوانەکان بە یەکتریان گوت: «دەی با بڕۆینە بێت‌لەحم و ئەم شتەی ڕوویداوە بیبینین کە یەزدان پێی ڕاگەیاندین.» |
16 So they went quickly. They found the [place where] Mary and Joseph [were staying], and [they saw] the baby lying in the trough where [people] put food for the animals.
| خێرا هاتن و مریەم و یوسف و ئەو مەلۆتکەیەی لە ئاخوڕەکەدا دانرابوو دۆزییانەوە. |
17 Then they told [Mary and Joseph and others] what had been told them {what [the angel] had told them} about this child.
| کاتێک بینییان، ئەو قسەیەیان بڵاو کردەوە کە دەربارەی ئەم منداڵە پێیان گوترابوو. |
18 Everyone who heard what was said by the shepherds {what the shepherds said} to them was amazed.
| هەموو ئەوانەی گوێیان لێبوو، سەریان سوڕمابوو لەوەی شوانەکان پێیان دەگوتن. |
19 But Mary [did not talk to others about what the angels said]; she just kept thinking very much about it.
| بەڵام مریەم هەموو ئەم شتانەی لە دڵی خۆیدا هەڵدەگرت و لێکی دەدایەوە. |
20 The shepherds returned [to their sheep]. They kept praising God very much for all the things that they had heard and seen, [because] everything [happened] exactly like [the angels] told them.
| شوانەکان گەڕانەوە و خودایان شکۆدار کرد و ستایشیان کرد لە پێناوی هەموو ئەوەی بیستیان و بینییان، بەو شێوەیەی پێیان گوترابوو. |
21 Seven days later, when [the priests] circumcised the baby, [his parents] named him Jesus. That was the name that [they were told by] the angel {the angel [told them]} [to] give him before Mary became pregnant.
| لە ڕۆژی هەشتەم کاتی خەتەنەکردنی منداڵەکە هات، هەر ئەو کاتەش ناوی لێنرا عیسا، بەو شێوەیەی فریشتەکە ناوی لێنا، پێش ئەوەی مریەم سکی پڕبێت. |
22 It had been written by Moses {Moses had written} [long ago] in a law that God gave him, that when a woman gave birth to her first son, the parents had to take him [to the Temple] in Jerusalem in order that they might dedicate him (to the Lord/to God). So when the time came for them to do those rituals so that [God would consider] them pure again, Mary and Joseph took Jesus there.
| پاشان یوسف و مریەم لەدوای تەواوبوونی ڕۆژانی پاکبوونەوە عیسایان بردە ئۆرشەلیم تاکو پێشکەشی یەزدانی بکەن، بەگوێرەی تەوراتی موسا، |
| کە تەوراتی یەزدانە، هەروەک تێیدا نووسراوە: [هەر نێرینەیەکی نۆبەرە بۆ یەزدان تەرخان دەکرێت.] |
24 God had commanded in his laws that if the first child [of a couple] was a boy, his parents should offer as a sacrifice to God two turtledoves or two young pigeons. [So Joseph and Mary gave the priest two birds so he could offer them].
| بۆ پێشکەشکردنی قوربانییەکیش، بەگوێرەی ئەوەی لە تەوراتی یەزدان گوتراوە: [دوو کوکوختی یان دوو بێچووە کۆتر.] |
25 At that time there was an [old] man in Jerusalem whose name was Simeon. He habitually did what was pleasing to God and he obeyed God’s laws. The Holy Spirit was [directing] him as he was waiting for [God] [MTY] [to] encourage the Israeli [people by sending the Messiah].
| پیاوێکی چاک و لەخواترس بە ناوی شیمۆن لە ئۆرشەلیم هەبوو، چاوەڕێی هاتنی دڵنەواییکەری ئیسرائیل بوو، ڕۆحی پیرۆزی لەسەر بوو. |
26 It was [previously] revealed by the Holy Spirit {The Holy Spirit [previously] revealed} to him that he would see God’s [promised] Messiah before he died.
| بە ڕۆحی پیرۆز بۆی ئاشکرا کرابوو کە نامرێت هەتا مەسیحی یەزدان نەبینێت. |
27 When Joseph and Mary brought their baby Jesus [to the Temple] in order to perform the rituals that [God had commanded] in his laws, the Spirit led Simeon to enter the Temple [courtyard, and revealed to him that Jesus was the Messiah].
| بەهۆی ڕۆحی پیرۆزەوە هاتە حەوشەکانی پەرستگا. کاتێک دایک و باوکەکە عیسای منداڵیان هێنایە ژوورەوە، تاکو بەگوێرەی نەریتی تەوراتی بۆ بکەن، |
28 So he took Jesus up in his arms and praised God, saying,
| شیمۆن عیسای لە باوەشی گرت و ستایشی خودای کرد: |
29 Lord, you promised me that I would see the one [MTY] who would enable you to save people of all people-groups from the guilt of their sins. He will be [MET] like a light that will reveal your truth to non-Jews, and he will cause people to think highly of your people, the Israeli people. Since I [SYN] have now seen this one that you promised to send, now let me die peacefully.
| «ئەی یەزدانی باڵادەست، ئێستا بەگوێرەی قسەکەت بەندەی خۆت بە ئاشتی بەڕێبکە. |
| ئەوا چاوم ڕزگاریی تۆی بینی، |
| ئەوەی لەبەردەم هەموو گەلان ئامادەت کردووە، |
| هەتا ببێتە ڕووناکی بۆ ئاشکراکردنی سروشی تۆ بۆ نەتەوەکان و ببێتە مایەی شکۆمەندی بۆ ئیسرائیلی گەلەکەت.» |
33 His parents marveled about what [Simeon] said about [Jesus]. Then Simeon blessed them, and said to Mary,
| دایک و باوکی سەرسام بوون لەوەی دەربارەی گوترا. |
34 “Note what I say: [God] has determined that because of this child, many Israeli people will [turn away from God], and many others will turn to God [MET]. Although he will be like a sign [MET] [to warn people], [many] people will oppose him.
| شیمۆن داوای بەرەکەتی بۆ کردن و بە مریەمی دایکی گوت: «ئا ئەم منداڵە دەبێتە هۆی کەوتن و هەستانەوەی کەسانێکی زۆر لە ئیسرائیل، هەروەها دەبێتە نیشانەیەک دژایەتی دەکرێت، |
35 As a result, the [evil] thoughts of many people will be made evident {he will reveal the [evil] thoughts of many people}. [Furthermore, the cruel things that they will do to him] [MET] [will be like] a sword that will pierce your (soul/inner being).”
| هەتا نیازی دڵی زۆر کەس ئاشکرابێت. تۆش شمشێرێک جەرگت دەبڕێت.» |
36 There was also [in the Temple courtyard] a very old woman named Anna. She was a prophetess. Her father Phanuel was a member of the tribe of Asher. After she had been married seven years, her husband died.
| پێغەمبەرێکی ژن هەبوو بە ناوی ئانای کچی پەنوئێل لە هۆزی ئاشێر. زۆر بە ساڵدا چوو بوو، لەدوای شووکردنی تەنها حەوت ساڵ لەگەڵ مێردەکەی ژیابوو، |
37 After that, she lived until she was 84 years old, and she was still a widow. She stayed in the Temple [area] all the time, night and day, worshipping God. She often (abstained from food/fasted) as she prayed.
| پاشان بە بێوەژنی مابووەوە و تەمەنی گەیشتبووە هەشتا و چوار ساڵ. پەرستگای بەجێ نەدەهێشت، شەو و ڕۆژ بە نوێژ و ڕۆژوو خودای دەپەرست. |
38 [While Joseph and Mary and the baby were] still [in the Temple, Anna came to them. She thanked God for the baby]. Then she spoke about Jesus to many people who were expecting [God to send the Messiah] [MTY] to set [the people of] [MTY] Jerusalem free [from their enemies].
| هەر لەو کاتەدا هات بۆ لای ئەوان و ستایشی خودای کرد، باسی منداڵەکەی بۆ هەموو ئەوانە کرد کە چاوەڕوانی ڕزگاریی ئۆرشەلیم بوون. |
39 After Joseph and Mary had finished performing the rituals that (the Lord/God) required [the parents of a first son] to perform, they returned to their own town, Nazareth, in Galilee [district].
| کە هەموو شتێکیان بەگوێرەی تەوراتی یەزدان تەواو کرد، هاتنەوە بۆ ناسیرەی شارەکەی خۆیان لە ناوچەی جەلیل. |
40 As Jesus grew up, he became strong and very wise, and God was very pleased with him.
| منداڵەکەش گەشەی دەکرد و بەهێز دەبوو، پڕبوو لە دانایی و نیعمەتی خوداشی لەسەر بوو. |
41 Every year Jesus’ parents went to Jerusalem to [celebrate] the Passover festival.
| دایک و باوکی هەموو ساڵێک لە جەژنی پەسخە دەچوونە ئۆرشەلیم. |
42 So when Jesus was twelve years old, they went up [to Jerusalem] as they always did.
| کاتێک عیسا بووە دوازدە ساڵ، وەک نەریتی جەژن بەرەو ئۆرشەلیم سەرکەوتن. |
43 When the celebration ended, his parents started to return home, but Jesus stayed in Jerusalem. [His parents] did not realize that [Jesus stayed there].
| دوای تەواوبوونی جەژن و لە گەڕانەوەیاندا، بەبێ ئەوەی دایک و باوکی بزانن، عیسای مێردمنداڵ لە ئۆرشەلیم مایەوە. |
44 They thought that he was with the other people who were traveling with them. They walked all day. Then they started to look for him among their relatives and friends.
| لەبەر ئەوەی پێیان وابوو لەنێو کاروانەکەیە، ڕۆژە ڕێیەک ڕۆیشتن. دوای ئەوە لەناو خزم و ناسیاوەکاندا بەدوایدا گەڕان. |
45 They did not find him, so they returned to Jerusalem to search for him.
| کاتێک نەیاندۆزییەوە، گەڕانەوە بۆ ئۆرشەلیم بۆ ئەوەی بەدوایدا بگەڕێن. |
46 Two days later, they found him. He was in the Temple [courtyard], sitting with the [Jewish] religious teachers. He was listening to what they said, and he was asking them questions.
| دوای سێ ڕۆژ لە حەوشەکانی پەرستگادا دۆزیانەوە، بینییان لەناو مامۆستایان دانیشتووە، گوێیان لێ دەگرێت و پرسیاریان لێدەکات. |
47 Everyone who heard what he [said] was amazed at how much he understood and [how well] he answered [the questions that the teachers asked].
| هەموو ئەوانەی گوێیان لێی ڕاگرتبوو، لە تێگەیشتن و وەڵامەکانی سەرسام بوون. |
48 When his parents saw him, they were very surprised. His mother said to him, “My son, why have you done this to us? Your father and I have been very worried as we [(exc)] have been searching for you!”
| کاتێک بینییان واقیان وڕما، ئینجا دایکی پێی گوت: «کوڕم، بۆ وات لێکردین؟ من و باوکت نیگەرانت بووین و بەدواتدا دەگەڕاین.» |
49 He said to them, [speaking about the Temple being God his Father’s house], “(I am surprised that you [(dl)] did [not know] where to find me!/Why did you [not know] where to find me?) [RHQ] (You [(dl)] should have known that it was necessary for me to be in my Father’s house!/Did you not know that it was necessary for me to be in my Father’s house?) [RHQ]”
| وەڵامی دانەوە: «بۆچی بەدوامدا دەگەڕان؟ نەتاندەزانی پێویستە لە ماڵی باوکمدا بم؟» |
50 But they did not understand [the meaning of] what he said to them.
| بەڵام لەو قسەیە تێنەگەیشتن کە پێی فەرموون. |
51 Then he returned with them down to Nazareth. He always obeyed them. But his mother kept thinking about all those things.
| ئینجا لەگەڵیان گەڕایەوە و هاتەوە ناسیرە و گوێڕایەڵیان بوو. مریەمی دایکی ئەمانەی هەموو دەخستە دڵییەوە. |
52 [As the years passed], Jesus continued to become wiser and he grew taller. God and people continued to approve of him more and more.
| عیساش لە دانایی و باڵا گەشەی دەکرد، جێی ڕەزامەندی خودا و خەڵکی بوو. |
