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].
Ăn vrijamaja caru alu Rimuluj, August, azapovjedit s fakă popisu d tuată lumje karje trijaštje ăn cara.
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.
Ăsta afost prvi popis d lumje karje sa dogodit ăn vrijamje pănd Kvirinije afost upravitelju p regija Sirija.
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.
Toc apljikat ăn trgu undje trija sămănca aluj s s skrije ăn popis.
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].
Aša š Josip, karje afost sămănca alu caru David, apljikat dăn sat Nazaret ăn regije Galileje ăn sat Betlehem ăn regije Judeje, undje d mult sa fukut David.
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].
Jel apljikat una ku zaručnica aluj, Marija, s s skrije ăn popis. Marija već afost grja,
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.
š pănd afost ăn Betlehem, ja vinjit vrijamja s fakă.
Ja afukut bijat, prvi kupil, la ănvilijat š la pus ăn aljbje daja če ăn sat undje irja sobje d gostjamje nu irja lok d jej.
8 That night, there were [some] shepherds who were taking care of their sheep [as usual] in the fields near [Bethlehem].
Ăn nuaptjaja p păjenj upruapje d Betlehem, njeki pastirurj păza vojilje alor.
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.
Dăturdată sa ukazăt anđelu alu Domnuluj š lja osvitljit slava alu Domnuluj š jej mult sa spirjat!
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].
Anđelu lja zăs: “Na vjec frikă! Jakă aduk vuavă Bună vorbă karje p tuată lumja s usričaskă!
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!
Astăz sa fukut vuavă Spasitelju ăn Betlehem, ăn trgu alu David. Jel je Kristu, Domnu!
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.”
Aša osă štijec k je istina aja če zăk: Osă găsăc kupilu karje je ănvilijat ăn plahtă kum zače ăn aljbje.”
13 Suddenly a large group of angels from heaven appeared and joined the other angel. They all praised God, singing/saying,
Dăturdată alu anđeluj avinjit marje vuastje d anđelurlje dăn čerj karje aslavit p Dimizov:
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]!”
“Slava alu Dimizov karje vladjaštje p čerj, a p pămănt mir alu lumje karje ja ugodit.”
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!”
Š anđelurlje apljikat dăla jej š sa tors p čerj. Pastiri arubit unu ku alc: “Ajdac ăn Betlehem s vidjem ča fost če nuavă azăs Domnu!”
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.
Apripit ăn Betlehem š ănklo angăsăt p Marija š p Josip ku kupilu če sa fukut karje azukut ăn aljbje.
17 Then they told [Mary and Joseph and others] what had been told them {what [the angel] had told them} about this child.
Kănd la găsăt, alu toc arubit aja če anđelu azăs d kupil.
18 Everyone who heard what was said by the shepherds {what the shepherds said} to them was amazed.
Š tuată lumja karje apus urjajke la pastirurj sa mirat d aja če lja zăs.
19 But Mary [did not talk to others about what the angels said]; she just kept thinking very much about it.
A Marija nimika na mujtat d asta ča uzăt š găndja d aja ăn inima alu je.
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.
Pastiri sa tors la vojilje p karje păza š slavja š zahvalja alu Dimizov. Tot ča uzăt š avizut afost kum lja zăs anđelu.
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.
D opt zălje maj ănklo kănd avinjit vrijamja s obrezaskă p kupilu, ja pus lumilje Isusu karje anđelu adat majdată njego če Marija arămas grja.
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.
Kănd avinjit vrijamja Marija s s očistjaskă kum skrije ăn zakonu alu Mojsije, Josip š Marija alat p Isusu š apljikat ăn Hram ăn Jeruzalem. La posvitit alu Domnuluj,
kum skrije ăn zakonu alu Domnuluj: “Tot bijatu karje prvi sa fukut pripadnjaštje alu Domnuluj.”
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].
Š aprinisăt žrtvă kum mama aputja jar s fije čistă, kum zakonu alu Mojsije ănvacă: “duavă grlic ili doj goluburj tănărj.”
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].
Trija atunča unu om ăn Jeruzalem, s kjamă Šimun, karje irja pravedan š askulta zakonu alu Dimizov. Sufljetu alu Svăntuluj irja p jel š aštiptat p Dimizov s izbavjaskă p Izraelcurlje kum aobečit.
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.
Sufljetu alu Svăntuluj ja zăs k nusă muarje pănă god nu vjadje p Kristu karje Domnu atrimjes s izbavjaskă p narodu aluj.
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].
P zuvă kănd Josip š Marija adus kupilu Isusu s fakă obredu kum je skris ăn zakonu alu Mojsije, Sufljetu alu Svăntuluj adus p Šimun s pljače ăn Hram.
28 So he took Jesus up in his arms and praised God, saying,
Šimun alat p Isusu ăn mănj š aslavit p Dimizov ku vorbiljaštja:
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.
“Domnulje, maj ispunit obečala karje maj dat š akuma jo, argatu alu tov, pot s mor ăn mir.
Akuma vojki alji mjej avizut spasjala,
p spasitelju karje tu atrimjes d tot narodu.
Jel je lumina s otkrijaskă istina ata alu tot narodu, ăla karje aduče slava alu Izrael, narodu alu tov.”
33 His parents marveled about what [Simeon] said about [Jesus]. Then Simeon blessed them, and said to Mary,
Josip š Marija sa mirat la vorbje če s rubja d Isusu.
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.
Šimun lja blagoslovit š azăs alu Marije, mama alu Isusuluj: “Jakă, Dimizov atrimjes p kupilusta k mulc Izraelcurj osă kadă š mulc osă adrikă. Dimizov la trimjes kašă znaku s pokazaskă drumu d spasjală, karje mulc inš osă l odbacaskă,
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).”
š aša osă arată rovu ăn inima alor. A kănd l odbacaštje, maču osă probijaskă inima ata.”
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.
Afost ăn Hram š proročică Ana, fata alu Fanuel dăn sămănca alu Ašer. Ja irja mult bătrnă. Afost šaptje aj ăn brak
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.
š atunča atrijit kašă udovica pănla optzăč š patru aj. Na išăt dăn Hram, njego ăn post š ăn molitvă aslužăt alu Dimizovuluj zuva š nuaptja.
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].
Baš kănd Šimunu azavršăt, avinjit Ana š ančiput s slavjaskă p Dimizov š s rubjaskă d Isusu alu toc karje aštiptat p Dimizov s izbavjaskă p Jeruzalem dăla dušmanji alor.
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].
Kănd Josip š Marija afukut kum zakonu alu Domnuluj azapovjedit, sa tors akas ăn Nazaret ăn regije Galileje.
40 As Jesus grew up, he became strong and very wise, and God was very pleased with him.
Kupilu Isusu akriskut. Apostanit capăn š maj mult mudar š Dimizov nastavja s l blagoslovjaskă.
41 Every year Jesus’ parents went to Jerusalem to [celebrate] the Passover festival.
Roditelji alu Isusuluj tot anu pljika ăn Jeruzalem kănd irja prazniku Pasha.
42 So when Jesus was twelve years old, they went up [to Jerusalem] as they always did.
Kănd Isusu avut duavăsprjače d aj, jej apljikat kašă uvjek s slavjaskă prazniku.
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].
Dăpă praznik, roditelji alu Isusuluj ančiput akas, a fălkovu Isusu arămas ăn Jeruzalem, ali roditelji aluj na štijut aja.
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.
Agăndit k Isusu je ăn grupa alor. Jej aumblat una zuvă a atunča ančiput s l katje ăntră familjije š ăntră ortač alor,
45 They did not find him, so they returned to Jerusalem to search for him.
ali nu la găsăt š aša sa tors ăn Jeruzalem š ănklo s l katje.
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.
Dăpă trje zălje la găsăt ăn Hram ăntră učiteljurj kum punje urjajke š lji ăntrjabă.
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].
Š toc karje apus urjajke la Isusu sa mirat kăt štije š kum binje odgovorjaštje p pitanje.
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!”
Kănd jej angăsăt p Isusu na štijut če s găndjaskă. Azăs mumusa: “Bijatu alu mjov, dăče afukut tu asta nuavă? Jakă, tatutov š jo mult nja sikirit š noj pistot t kătam!”
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]”
Isusu azăs alor: “Dăče mas kătat? Dali voj nu štijic k jo mora s fiuv ăn kasa alu Tatimjov?”
50 But they did not understand [the meaning of] what he said to them.
Ali jej nu razumja če jel avrut s lji zăkă.
51 Then he returned with them down to Nazareth. He always obeyed them. But his mother kept thinking about all those things.
Isusu sa tors akas ku mumusa š ku tatusov ăn sat Nazaret š askulta p jej. A mumusa nimika na mujtat d asta če sa dogodit.
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.
Isusu krištja š postanja još maj mult mudar š Dimizov l blagoslovja maj mult š maj mult, a lumja l poštuja maj mult š maj mult.
