< Luke 2 >
1 Just at this time an edict was issued by Caesar Augustus for the registration of the whole Empire.
उन दिनां म्ह औगुस्तुस कैसर की कान्ही तै हुकम लिकड़या के, सारे रोमी साम्राज्य कै माणसां की जनगणना करकै उनके नाम लिक्खे जावै।
2 It was the first registration made during the governorship of Quirinius in Syria;
(या पैहली नाम लिखाई उस बखत होई, जिब क्विरिनियुस सीरिया परदेस कै इलाके का राज्यपाल था)।
3 and all went to be registered--every one to the town to which he belonged.
सारे माणस नाम लिखाण कै खात्तर अपणे-अपणे पुश्तैनी नगर म्ह गए।
4 So Joseph went up from Galilee, from the town of Nazareth, to Judaea, to David's town of Bethlehem, because he was of the house and lineage of David,
आखर यूसुफ भी इस करकै के वो भी दाऊद कै कुण्बे अर पीढ़ी का था, गलील परदेस कै नासरत नगर तै गया, यहूदिया परदेस म्ह दाऊद कै बैतलहम नगर म्ह आया,
5 to have himself registered together with Mary, who was betrothed to him and was with child.
ताके अपणी मंगेतर मरियम कै गेल्या जो गर्भवती थी, उस जनगणना म्ह नाम लिखवावै।
6 But while they were there, her full time came,
उनकै बैतलहम नगर रहन्दे होए उसके जाम्मण के दिन पूरे होए,
7 and she gave birth to her first-born son, and wrapped Him round, and laid Him in a manger, because there was no room for them in the inn.
अर मरियम नै अपणा जेट्ठा छोरा जाम्या अर उस ताहीं लत्ते म्ह लपेटकै खोर म्ह धरया, क्यूँके उनकै खात्तर सराये म्ह जगहां कोनी थी।
8 Now there were shepherds in the same part of the country, keeping watch over their sheep by night in the open fields,
अर उस देश म्ह कई पाळी थे, जो रात नै मदानां म्ह रहकै अपणी भेड्डां के टोळ की रुखाळ करै थे।
9 when suddenly an angel of the Lord stood by them, and the glory of the Lord shone round them; and they were filled with terror.
अर उस्से रात नै प्रभु का एक सुर्गदूत उनकै धोरै आण खड्या होया, अर प्रभु का प्रताप उसकै उप्पर चमक्या, अर वे घणे डरगे।
10 But the angel said to them, "Put away all fear; for I am bringing you good news of great joy--joy for all the People.
सुर्गदूत नै उनतै कह्या, “मतना डरो, क्यूँके देक्खों, मै थमनै घणी खुशी की खबर सुणाऊँ सूं, जो सारे माणसां खात्तर होगी,
11 For a Saviour who is the Anointed Lord is born to you to-day, in the town of David.
आज दाऊद कै नगर बैतलहम म्ह थारे खात्तर एक उद्धारकर्ता जाम्या सै, अर योए मसीह प्रभु सै।
12 And this is the token for you: you will find a babe wrapped in swaddling clothes and lying in a manger."
अर उसकी थारे खात्तर या निशान्नी होगी के थम एक बाळक नै लत्ते म्ह लिपट्या होड़ अर खोर म्ह लेट्या होड़ पाओगे।”
13 And immediately there was with the angel a multitude of the army of Heaven praising God and saying,
फेर चाणचक उस सुर्गदूत गेल्या सुर्गदूत्तां का एक टोळ परमेसवर की भगति करदे होए अर न्यू कहन्दे दिख्या,
14 "Glory be to God in the highest Heavens, And on earth peace among men who please Him!"
“अकास म्ह परमेसवर की महिमा अर धरती पै उन माणसां म्ह जिनतै वो राज्जी सै, शान्ति हो।”
15 Then, as soon as the angels had left them and returned to Heaven, the shepherds said to one another, "Let us now go over as far as Bethlehem and see this that has happened, which the Lord has made known to us."
जिब सुर्गदूत उसकै धोरै तै सुर्ग म्ह चले गए, तो पाळीयाँ नै आप्पस म्ह कह्या, “आओ, हम बैतलहम नगर जाकै या बात जो होई सै, अर जो प्रभु नै म्हारै ताहीं बताई सै, देक्खां।”
16 So they made haste and came and found Mary and Joseph, with the babe lying in the manger.
अर उननै जिब्बे जाकै मरियम अर यूसुफ ताहीं अर खोर म्ह उस बाळक ताहीं लेट्या देख्या।
17 And when they saw the child, they told what had been said to them about Him;
जिब पाळीयाँ नै बाळक ताहीं देख्या तो उननै वे सारी बात जो सुर्गदूत नै इस बाळक कै बाबत उनतै कही थी, यूसुफ अर मरियम ताहीं बताई।
18 and all who listened were astonished at what the shepherds told them.
अर पाळीयाँ की ये बात सुणकै सारे सुणण आळा नै अचम्भा करया।
19 But Mary treasured up all these things, often dwelling on them in her mind.
पर मरियम ये बात अपणे मन म्ह धरकै सोचदी रई।
20 And the shepherds returned, glorifying and praising God for all that they had heard and seen in accordance with the announcement made to them.
अर जिसा पाळीयाँ ताहीं सुर्गदूत्तां नै कह्या था, सब कुछ उसाए सुणकै अर देखकै, वे परमेसवर की महिमा अर जय-जयकार करदे होए बोहड़गे।
21 When eight days had passed and the time for circumcising Him had come, He was called JESUS, the name given Him by the angel before His conception in the womb.
जिब आठ दिन पूरे होए अर उसकै खतने का बखत आया, तो उसका नाम यीशु धरया गया, अर यो नाम सुर्गदूत के जरिये, मरियम के गर्भ म्ह आण तै पैहल्या बताया गया था।
22 And when the days for their purification appointed by the Law of Moses had passed, they took Him up to Jerusalem to present Him to the Lord--
जिब मूसा नबी कै नियम-कायदा कै मुताबिक मरियम अर यूसुफ कै सूंच्चे होण के दिन पूरे होए, तो वे दोन्नु यीशु नै यरुशलेम नगर के मन्दर म्ह लेगे के प्रभु कै स्याम्ही ल्याए,
23 as it is written in the Law of the Lord: "Every first-born male shall be called holy to the Lord."
(जिसा के प्रभु के नियम-कायदा म्ह लिख्या होड़ सै: हरेक जेट्ठा बेट्टा प्रभु कै खात्तर पवित्र ठहरैगा।)
24 And they also offered a sacrifice as commanded in the Law of the Lord, "a pair of turtle doves or two young pigeons."
अर प्रभु कै नियम-कायदा कै वचन कै मुताबिक “एक कबूतर या मोड्डी कै दो बच्चे ल्याकै बलि करै।”
25 Now there was a man in Jerusalem of the name of Symeon, an upright and God-fearing man, who was waiting for the consolation of Israel, and the Holy Spirit was upon him.
उस बखत यरुशलेम नगर म्ह शमौन नाम का एक माणस था। वो धर्मी अर परमेसवर का भगत था, अर वो मसीह की बाट देखण लागरया था, ताके इस्राएल के माणसां नै शान्ति मिलै अर पवित्र आत्मा उसपै था।
26 To him it had been revealed by the Holy Spirit that he should not see death until he had seen the Lord's Anointed One.
अर पवित्र आत्मा के जरिये उसपै जाहिर होया था के जिब तक वो प्रभु के मसीह नै देख न्ही लेगा, जद ताहीं मौत नै कोनी देक्खैगा।
27 Led by the Spirit he came to the Temple; and when the parents brought in the child Jesus to do with regard to Him according to the custom of the Law,
शमौन आत्मा की अगुवाई तै मन्दर म्ह आया, अर जिब माँ-बाप उस बाळक यीशु ताहीं भीत्त्तर ल्याए, ताके उसकै खात्तर नियम-कायदा के रिवाज कै मुताबिक करै,
28 he took Him up in his arms and blessed God and said,
फेर उसनै बाळक यीशु ताहीं अपणी गोद्दी म्ह लिया अर परमेसवर का धन्यवाद करकै कह्या
29 "Now, O Sovereign Lord, Thou dost send Thy servant away in peace, in fulfilment of Thy word,
“हे प्रभु माल्लिक, इब तू अपणे दास नै अपणे वचन कै मुताबिक शान्ति तै इब मर जाणदे,
30 Because mine eyes have seen Thy salvation,
क्यूँके मेरी आँखां नै उद्धारकर्ता ताहीं देख लिया सै,
31 Which Thou hast made ready in the sight of all nations--
जिस ताहीं तन्नै सारे देशां के माणसां कै स्याम्ही भेज्या सै,
32 A light to shine upon the Gentiles, And the glory of Thy people Israel."
ताके वो गैर यहूदियाँ ताहीं चाँदणा देण कै खात्तर उजाळा, अर तेरे अपणे माणस इस्राएल की महिमा हो।”
33 And while the child's father and mother were wondering at the words of Symeon concerning Him,
यीशु के माँ-बाप इन बात्तां तै, जो शमौन नै यीशु कै बारें म्ह कही थी, सुणकै अचम्भा करै थे।
34 Symeon blessed them and said to Mary the mother, "This child is appointed for the falling and the uprising of many in Israel and for a token to be spoken against;
फेर शमौन नै उन ताहीं आशीर्वाद देकै, उसकी माँ मरियम तै कह्या, “देख, यो बाळक इस्राएल म्ह भोत-से माणसां के पतन अर उत्थान का कारण बणैगा, अर या निशान्नी के रूप म्ह परमेसवर की ओड़ तै भेज्या होया सै, अर भोत सारे लोग उसकै बिरुध बोल्लैगें।
35 and a sword will pierce through your own soul also; that the reasonings in many hearts may be revealed."
इसका नतिज्जा यो होगा के भोत सारे मनां के विचार जाहिर हो जावैंगे, अर एक भोत बड़ा दुख तेरे पै आवैगा।”
36 There was also Anna, a prophetess, the daughter of Phanuel, belonging to the tribe of Asher. She was of a very great age, having had after her maidenhood seven years of married life,
अशेर कै गोत म्ह तै हन्नाह नामक फनूएल की बेट्टी एक नबी थी। वा घणी बूढ़ी थी, अर ब्याह होण कै सात साल पाच्छै उसका धणी गुजर ग्या।
37 and then being a widow of eighty-four years. She was never absent from the Temple, but worshipped, by day and by night, with fasting and prayer.
वा चौरासी साल तै बिधवा थी: अर मन्दर म्ह जाणा कोनी छोड्या करै थी, पर ब्रत अर प्रार्थना कर-करकै रात-दिन भगति करया करै थी।
38 And coming up just at that moment, she gave thanks to God, and spoke about the child to all who were expecting the deliverance of Jerusalem.
जिब यूसुफ, मरियम अर बाळक यीशु, मन्दर म्ह थे, तो हन्नाह उनकै धोरै आई अर परमेसवर का धन्यवाद करण लाग्गी, अर उसनै उन सारया ताहीं इस बाळक यीशु के बारें म्ह बताया, जो यरुशलेम कै छुटकारै की बाट देक्खै थे।
39 Then, as soon as they had accomplished all that the Law required, they returned to Galilee to their own town of Nazareth.
यहूदी नियम-कायदा नै पूरा करण कै बाद यूसुफ अर मरियम गलील परदेस के नासरत नगर म्ह अपणे घरां बोहड़ आये।
40 And the child grew and became strong and full of wisdom, and the favour of God rested upon Him.
अर बाळक यीशु बढ़दा, अर मजबूत होन्दा, अर बुद्धि तै भरपूर होंदा गया, अर परमेसवर का अनुग्रह उसपै था।
41 Now His parents used to go up year by year to Jerusalem at the Feast of the Passover.
यीशु के माँ-बाप हरेक साल फसह कै त्यौहार म्ह यरुशलेम जाया करै थे।
42 And when He was twelve years old they went up as was customary at the time of the Feast, and,
जिब यीशु बारहां साल का होया, तो वे त्यौहार की रीति कै मुताबिक यरुशलेम नगर म्ह गए।
43 after staying the full number of days, when they started back home the boy Jesus remained behind in Jerusalem. His parents did not discover this,
जिब यीशु के माँ-बाप त्यौहार मनाकै अपणे घरां बोहड़ण लागरे थे, तो बाळक यीशु यरुशलेम म्ह रहग्या, अर इसका उसकै माँ-बाप नै कोनी बेरा था।
44 but supposing Him to be in the travelling company, they proceeded a day's journey. Then they searched up and down for Him among their relatives and acquaintances;
वे न्यू समझकै के वो दुसरे मुसाफिरां कै गेल्या होगा, एक दिन का सफर पार करगे: अर उस ताहीं अपणे कुण्बे आळा म्ह अर जाण-पिच्छाण आळा म्ह टोह्ण लाग्गे।
45 but being unable to find Him they returned to Jerusalem, making anxious inquiry for Him.
पर जिब कोनी मिल्या, टोन्दे-टोन्दे यरुशलेम म्ह दुबारै बोहड़गे,
46 On the third day they found Him in the Temple sitting among the Rabbis, both listening to them and asking them questions,
अर तीन दिन कै पाच्छै उननै वो मन्दर के आँगण म्ह उपदेशकां कै बिचाळै बेठ्ठे, उनकी सुणदे अर उनतै सवाल बुझते पाया।
47 while all who heard Him were astonished at His intelligence and at the answers He gave.
जितने उसकी सुणै थे, वे सारे उसकी समझ अर उसके जवाब तै हैरान थे।
48 When they saw Him, they were smitten with amazement, and His mother said to Him, "My child, why have you behaved thus to us? Your father and I have been searching for you in anguish."
फेर उसके माँ-बाप उस ताहीं देखकै हैरान होए अर उसकी माँ नै उसतै कह्या, “हे बेट्टे, तन्नै म्हारै गेल्या इसा बरताव क्यातै करया? देख, तेरा बाप अर मै तन्नै ढूँढ़-ढूँढ़के परेशान होरे थे?”
49 "Why is it that you have been searching for me?" He replied; "did you not know that it is my duty to be engaged upon my Father's business?"
उसनै उनतै कह्या, “थम मन्नै क्यातै टोह्वो सो? के बेरा कोनी मन्नै मेरे पिता कै घरां होणा जरूरी सै?”
50 But they did not understand the significance of these words.
पर जो बात उसनै उनतै कही, उननै कोनी समझया।
51 Then He went down with them and came to Nazareth, and was always obedient to them; but His mother carefully treasured up all these incidents in her memory.
फेर वो उनकै गेल्या गया, अर नासरत म्ह आया, अर उनकै बस म्ह रह्या, अर उसकी माँ नै ये सारी बात अपणे मन म्ह राक्खी।
52 And as Jesus grew older He gained in both wisdom and stature, and in favour with God and man.
अर यीशु समझ अर कद-काट्ठी म्ह, अर परमेसवर अर माणसां कै अनुग्रह म्ह बढ़दा गया।
