Luke 2
1 About that time an edict was issued by the Emperor Augustus that a census should be taken of the whole Empire.
Matam aduda Rome-na panba leibak punamakta mikok thinabagidamak Caesar Augustus-na yathang ama thokkhi.
2 (This was the first census taken while Quirinius was Governor of Syria).
Masigi ahanba mikok thiba asi Quirinius-na Syria-gi leingak mapu oiringei matamda thokkhibani.
3 And every one went to his own town to be registered.
Matam aduda mipum khudingmakna masa masagi hourakpham saharda maming ikhatnaba chatnarammi.
4 Among others Joseph went up from the town of Nazareth in Galilee to Bethlehem, the town of David, in Judea — because he belonged to the family and house of David —
Aduga Joseph-su David ningthougi charon-suron oiba maramna Galilee-gi Nazareth sahar thadoktuna Judea-da leiba David ningthougi sahar Bethlehemda chatlammi.
5 To be registered with Mary, his betrothed wife, who was about to become a mother.
Amasung mahakka luhongnabagidamak waroinakhrabi Mary-ga loinana mahakna mapham aduda ming ikhatnabagidmak chatminnarammi. Mary mirollibini.
6 While they were there her time came,
Aduga makhoina Bethlehem-da leiringeida Mary-gi angang unabagi matam adu yousillakle.
7 and she gave birth to her first child, a son. And because there was no room for them in the inn, she swathed him round and laid him in a manger.
Aduga mahakna mahakki ahanba machanupa ama pokle. Amasung mahakna angang adubu phina yomsinbiraga sabam amada hiphallammi, maramdi makhoina mithungsang aduda leinanaba mapham amata phanglamde.
8 In that same country-side were shepherds out in the open fields, watching their flocks that night,
Lamdam adumaktada yaosenba kharana ahing aduda loubuk lamhangsingda makhoigi yao sanggusing sennaduna leirammi.
9 when an angel of the Lord suddenly stood by them, and the Glory of the Lord shone around them; and they were seized with fear.
Adudagi ikhang khanghoudana Mapu Ibungogi dut amana makhoigi mamangda thoraklammi amasung Mapu Ibungogi matik mangalna makhoigi akoibada ngallammi. Maduda makhoi adukki matik kirammi.
10 “Have no fear,” the angel said. “For I bring you good news of a great joy in store for all the nation.
Adubu swarga dut aduna makhoida hairak-i, “Kiganu! Eina mi pumnamakki oigadaba yamna harao nungngaibagi aphaba pao nakhoida purakli.
11 This day there has been born to you, in the town of David, a Saviour, who is Christ and Lord.
Ngasigi numitta David-ki saharda nakhoigi kanbiba mapu pokle; mahakti Ibungo Christtani.
12 And this shall be the sign for you. You will find the infant swathed, and lying in a manger.”
Aduga khudam asigi mapanna nakhoina mahakpu khanggani; madudi phina yomsillaba angang ama sabamda hiplamba nakhoina thengnagani.”
13 Then suddenly there appeared with the angel a multitude of the heavenly Host, praising God, and singing —
Aduga ikhang khanghoudana swarga dut aduga loinana masing yamlaba swarga dut kanglup ama thoraktuna Tengban Mapubu thagatladuna hairak-i,
14 “Glory to God on high, And on earth peace among men in whom he finds pleasure.”
“Oirare wangthoiraba swargada, Tengban Mapugi maphamda matik mangal, aduga pibire malemda, magi apenba oiriba misinggi mathakta ingthaba!”
15 Now, when the angels had left them and gone back to Heaven, the shepherds said to one another: “Let us go at once to Bethlehem, and see this thing that has happened, of which the Lord has told us.”
Adudagi swarga dutsing aduna makhoibu thadoktuna swargada amuk kakhrabada, makhoi masel amaga amaga hainarak-i, “Houjik eikhoina Bethlehem-da chattuna Mapu Ibungona eikhoida hairamba thokkhraba thoudok adu yenglusi.”
16 So they went quickly, and found Mary and Joseph, and the infant lying in a manger;
Adudagi makhoina thunamak lakle amasung Mary amadi Joseph-pu phangjaduna sabamda hipliba angang adubu uba phangjare.
17 and, when they saw it, they told of all that had been said to them about this child.
Amasung yao senbasing aduna angang adubu uraba matungda swarga dut aduna angang adugi maramda hairambasing adu Mary amadi Joseph-ta tamle.
18 All who heard the shepherds were astonished at their story,
Aduga yaosenbasing aduna tambadu tabada tariba pumnamak ingak ngakkhi.
19 while Mary treasured up all that they said, and dwelt upon it in her thoughts.
Adubu Mary-nadi masi pumnamaksing asi ningsingjadunata leijakhi amasung thoudoksing adugi maramda munna wakhal toujakhi.
20 And the shepherds went back, giving glory and praise to God for all that they had heard and seen, as it had been told them.
Aduga yaosenbasing aduna makhoida hairamba aduga chap mannana, makhoina takhiba amadi ukhiba pumnamaksing adugidamak Tengban Mapubu matik mangal pijaduna amadi thagatchaduna hankhirammi.
21 Eight days after the birth of the child, when it was time to circumcise him, he received the name Jesus — the name given him by the angel before his conception.
Numit nipanni subada, angang adugi un kakpa matam laklabada, mahakna pibuknungda mitamdringei mamangda swarga dut aduna thollambagumna mahakki maming Jisu haina tholle.
22 When the period of purification of mother and child, enjoined by the Law of Moses, came to an end, his parents took the child up to Jerusalem to present him to the Lord,
Adudagi Moses-ki wayel yathang matung-inna makhoigi sengdokpagi thouram pangthoknaba matam adu laklammi. Aduga Joseph amadi Mary-na Jisubu Mapu Ibungoda katchanabagidamak Jerusalem-da puraklammi.
23 in compliance with the Law of the Lord that ‘every first-born male shall be dedicated to the Lord,’
Madu Mapu Ibungogi wayel yathangda ikhiba, “Ahanba pokpa machanupa khudingmak MAPU IBUNGO-gidamak tonganna khaidoktuna thamjagadabani” haiba adugi matung-innani.
24 And also to offer the sacrifice enjoined in the Law of the Lord — ‘a pair of turtle-doves or two young pigeons.’
Aduga makhoina Mapu Ibungogi wayel yathang matung-inna lamkhunu pungba ama nattraga khunu macha ani iratpot oina katnanabagidamaktasu chatlammi.
25 There was at that time in Jerusalem a man named Simeon, a righteous and devout man, who lived in constant expectation of the Consolation of Israel, and under the guidance of the Holy Spirit.
Matam aduda Simeon kouba achumba chatpa, Mapu Ibungobu chetna ningjaba nupa ama Jerusalem-da leirammi. Mahakna Israel-bu kanbigadaba adubu khourangna ngaijaduna leirammi. Aduga Thawai Asengbana mahakka loinarammi.
26 It had been revealed to him by the Holy Spirit that he should not die until he had seen the Lord’s Christ.
Amasung Mapu Ibungona wasakpikhraba Christta adubu udriba phaoba mahak siroi haiduna Thawai Asengbana mangonda phongdokpirammi.
27 Moved by the Spirit, Simeon came into the Temple Courts, and, when the parents brought in the child Jesus, to do for him what was customary under the Law,
Adudagi Thawaina chingduna Simeon-na Mapugi Sanglenda laklammi. Amasung Mary amadi Joseph-na angang oiriba Jisubu wayel yathanggi matung inna mahakkidamak toupham thokpasing adu tounanabagidamak Mapugi Sanglenda purakpa matamda,
28 Simeon himself took the child in his arms, and blessed God, and said:
Simeon-na mahakpu pamladuna Tengban Mapubu thagatcharak-i:
29 “Now, Lord, thou wilt let thy servant go, According to thy word, in peace,
“Mapu Ibungo, nahakna wasakpikhibagi matung-inna, Houjikti, nanai eihakpu nahakna ingthana thadokpire.
30 for my eyes have seen the Salvation
Maramdi eigi imit makna nahakki aran-khubham adu ujare,
31 Which thou hast prepared in the sight of all nations —
Nahakna madu mi pumnamakki mamangda thourang toubire:
32 A Light to bring light to the Gentiles, And to be the Glory of thy people Israel.”
Jihudi nattaba phurupsingda nahakki aningba phongdoknaba amadi nahakki mi Israel-gi maphamda matik ma-ngal puraknaba ma-ngal ama.”
33 While the child’s father and mother were wondering at what was said about him,
Ibungogi maramda Simeon-na hairibasing asi tabada Ibungogi mapa amadi mama ngaktuna leirammi.
34 Simeon gave them his blessing, and said to Mary, the child’s mother: “This child is appointed to be the cause of the fall and rise of many in Israel, and to be a sign much spoken against —
Adudagi Simeon-na makhoibu yaipha-thoujal pibiraduna Ibungogi mama Mary-da hairak-i, “Angang asi Israel-gi mi kaya amabu tuhannaba aduga kaya amabuna hougat-hannaba Tengban Mapuna khandokkhrabani. Aduga mahak mi kaya amana maiyokta nganggadaba Tengban Mapudagi lakpa khudam ama oigani.
35 Yes, the sword will pierce your own heart — and so the thoughts in many minds will be disclosed.”
Masi mi kayagi thamoigi wa adu phongdoknabani. Aduga awabana, thouraba thangsanggi matougumna nasamakki thamoida thin-gani.”
36 There was also a Prophetess named Hannah, a daughter of Phanuel and of the tribe of Asher. She was far advanced in years, having lived with her husband for seven years after marriage,
Aduga Anna koubi Tengban Mapugi wa phongdokpi amasu Mapugi Sanglenda leirammi. Mahak Asher salaigi Phanuel-gi machanupini amasung mahak yamna ahal oirammi. Mahakki mapuroiba adu luhonglaba matung chahi taretkhak mahakka leiminnaramlga sikhirammi.
37 and then a widow, till she had reached the age of eighty-four. She never left the Temple Courts, but, fasting and praying, worshiped God night and day.
Adudagi mahakna masagi chahi mariphumari suba phaoba lukhrabi ama oina leirammi. Mahakna Mapugi Sanglenbu keidounungda thadoklamde adubu mahakna ahing nungthil animakta Tengban Mapubu khurumjaduna, chara henduna amadi haijaduna mapham aduda leirammi.
38 At that moment she came up, and began publicly to thank God and to speak about the child to all who were looking for the deliverance of Jerusalem.
Aduga pungpham adumaktada mahaksu laktuna Tengban Mapubu thagatcharammi amasung Jerusalem-bu handokpiba ngaijariba makhoi pumnamakki maphamda angang asigi maramda wa nganglammi.
39 When the child’s parents had done everything enjoined by the Law of the Lord, they returned to Galilee to their own town of Nazareth.
Aduga Joseph amasung Mary-na Mapu Ibungogi wayel yathanggi matung-inna toupham thokpa pumnamak pangthokpa loiraba matungda makhoina Galilee-da leiba masamakki apikpa sahar Nazareth-ta halaklammi.
40 The child grew and became strong and wise, and the blessing of God was upon him.
Amasung angang adu asum chaokhatlaklammi amasung pangal kallaklammi. Mahak lousingna thallammi aduga Tengban Mapugi thoujalna mahakki mathakta leirammi.
41 Every year the child’s parents used to go to Jerusalem at the Passover Festival.
Aduga chahi khudinggi Ibungogi mama-mapana lanthokpibagi chakkhangba kumheigidamak Jerusalem-da chatlammi.
42 When Jesus was twelve years old, they went according to custom to Jerusalem,
Amasung Ibungona chahi taranithoi suba matamda mahousagumna Jerusalem-da chakkhangba yaoba chatlammi.
43 and had finished their visit; but, when they started to return, the boy Jesus remained behind in Jerusalem, without their knowing it.
Adudagi makhoina lanthokpibagi chakkhangba kumhei loiduna yumda hallabada, angang oiriba Jisudi Jerusalem-da leithahourammi. Adubu Ibungogi mama mapanadi madu khanglamde.
44 Thinking that he was with their fellow-travellers, they went one day’s journey before searching for him among their relations and acquaintances;
Adudagi makhoina Ibungobu makhoiga chatminnariba khongloising adugi marakta yaoramgani haina khanduna numit chuppa chatlaba tungda makhoina Ibungobu mari-matasinggi marakta amadi marup-mapangsinggi marakta thiba hourammi.
45 and then, as they did not find him, they returned to Jerusalem, searching everywhere for him.
Aduga makhoina Ibunggobu thiba phangdrabada mahakpu thinabagidamak Jerusalem-da amuk hallammi.
46 It was not till the third day that they found him in the Temple Courts, sitting among the Teachers, now listening to them, now asking them questions.
Amasung numit humnigi matungda makhoina mahakpu Mapugi Sanglenda Jihudi ojasinggi marakta phamduna makhoina ngangba taduna amadi mahakna makhoida wahang hangduna leiramba adu thengnare.
47 All who listened to him marvelled at his intelligence and his answers.
Amasung Ibungona ngangba tariba makhoi pumnamakna mahakki lousing amadi paokhum aduda ingak-ngaklammi.
48 His parents were amazed when they saw him, and his mother said to him: “My child, why have you treated us like this? Your father and I have been searching for you in great distress.”
Aduga Ibungogi mama mapana Ibungobu uba matamda ingak-ngaklammi, amasung Ibungogi mamana Ibungoda hairak-i, “Icha-nupa, nahakna eikhoida asumna touribasi karigino? Napaga eigana kayada pukning wana nahakpu thirakli.”
49 “What made you search for me?” he answered. “Did not you know that I must be in my Father’s House?”
Maduda Ibungona khumlak-i, “Nakhoina eibu karigidamak thiribano? Eina eigi Ipagi yumda leipham thok-i haiba nakhoina khangdabra?”
50 His parents did not understand what he meant.
Adubu Ibungona makhoida hairiba adu karino haiba makhoina khangba ngamkhide.
51 However he went down with them to Nazareth, and submitted himself to their control; and his mother treasured all that was said in her heart.
Adudagi Jisuna mama mapaga loinana Nazareth-ta hallaklammi amasung mahakna makhoina haiba illammi. Aduga Ibungogi mamana thokhiba pumnamaksing adu mathamoida lengdana thamjarammi.
52 And Jesus grew in wisdom as he grew in years, and ‘gained the blessing of God and men.’
Amasung Jisuna hakchang amadi lousing animakta chaokhatlaklammi amadi Tengban Mapu amadi misingdagi chanbiba phangjarammi.
