1 Hagi ana knafi mika Romu kamani vahe'mo'za kva hu'naza mopafina, Romu rankva ne' agi'a Sisa Ogastusi'a kasege erinteno, maka vahe'mo'za zamagia eme kreho hu'ne.
And it happened in those days that a decree went out from Caesar Augustus, so that the whole world would be enrolled.
2 Hagi Siria mopafina Kuiriniasi Gavana mani'nere, ana knafi ese kna agafa hu'za zamagia kre'naze.
This was the first enrollment; it was made by the ruler of Syria, Quirinius.
3 Ana hige'za maka vahe'mo'za zamagi kre'naku mopa agafa zimire vutere hu'naze.
And all went to be declared, each one to his own city.
4 Josefe'a agranena kini ne' Deviti nagapinti ne'kino, Nazareti kuma Galili kazigati atreno, Betlehemue nehaza Deviti kumate vu'ne.
Then Joseph also ascended from Galilee, from the city of Nazareth, into Judea, to the city of David, which is called Bethlehem, because he was of the house and family of David,
5 Josefe'a a'isa kinte'nea a' nevareno, Kamani vahe'mo'za zanagima krenagu amu'ene hu'negene vu'na'e.
in order to be declared, with Mary his espoused wife, who was with child.
6 Hagi anantega umaninakeno, Mariana mofavrema kasentesia kna egeno,
Then it happened that, while they were there, the days were completed, so that she would give birth.
7 ese ne' mofavre kasenteno tavravenu ano vazino, bulimakamofo ne'za zuompafi antegeno mase'ne. Na'ankure miza seno mase nontamina ana mika vahe'moke hiza higeno'e.
And she brought forth her firstborn son. And she wrapped him in swaddling clothes and laid him in a manger, because there was no room for them at the inn.
8 Hagi ana kuma tva'onte, sipisipi kva vahe'mo'za kenage sipisipia kva hu'za megi'a mani'nageno,
And there were shepherds in the same region, being vigilant and keeping watch in the night over their flock.
9 ame huno ankeromo efore nehigeno, Ramofo masa'amo anamokizmi remsa hunezmantege'za koro hu'naze.
And behold, an Angel of the Lord stood near them, and the brightness of God shone around them, and they were struck with a great fear.
10 Hianagi ankeromo anage huno zamasami'ne, Kore osuta antahi so'e hiho, nagra Knare Musenke eri'na neonkino, maka ama mopafi vahe'mo'za tusi muse hugahaze.
And the Angel said to them: “Do not be afraid. For, behold, I proclaim to you a great joy, which will be for all the people.
11 Na'ankure menina Deviti kumatera, tamagri'ma tamagu'vazinia mofavre kasente'ne. Hanki ana nera Ramo, Kraisi'e.
For today a Savior has been born for you in the city of David: he is Christ the Lord.
12 Hanki avame'za ome kesnazana amana hu'ne, ana mofavre tavaravefi antegafino bulimakao ne'za zuompafi ante'nenketa ome kegahaze.
And this will be a sign for you: you will find the infant wrapped in swaddling clothes and lying in a manger.”
13 Anage nehigeno, ame huno rama'a ankeromo'za monafinti anante efore hu'za, Anumzamofo agi erisaga nehu'za anage hu'za,
And suddenly there was with the Angel a multitude of the celestial army, praising God and saying,
14 Monafi marerisa kumapi nemania Anumzamo'a Ra agi erino. Hagi mopafina vahe'mo'za zamarimpa frune maniho. Anumzamo'a rimpa fru huzmante!
“Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace to men of good will.”
15 Anage hute'za ankero vahe'mo'za zamatre'za monafi ete marerizage'za, sipisipi afu kva vahe'mo'za zamagragura anage hu'naze, Erinketa Ramo'ma menina Betlehemu kumate hentofazana forehie huno tasamiazana ome kesune.
And it happened that, when the Angels had departed from them into heaven, the shepherds said to one another, “Let us cross over to Bethlehem and see this word, which has happened, which the Lord has revealed to us.”
16 Nehu'za ame hu'za oti'za vu'za ome kazana Maria'ene Josefekea, mofavre'zinia bulimakamofo ne'za zuompafi antemase nege'za ome ke fore hu'naze.
And they went quickly. And they found Mary and Joseph; and the infant was lying in a manger.
17 Sipsipi kva vahe'mo'za ome ke fore nehu'za, ankero vahe'mo'zama ana mofavregu hu'naza kea, nererane nefanena znasami'naze.
Then, upon seeing this, they understood the word that had been spoken to them about this boy.
18 Hagi ana kema maka vahe'mo'za antahi'zamo'za, antri nehu'za antahintahi hakare hu'naze.
And all who heard it were amazed by this, and by those things which were told to them by the shepherds.
19 Hianagi Maria'a ana nanekema hazankea nentahino, agu'afi ana maka kea nenteno ana kea agera okani'ne.
But Mary kept all these words, pondering them in her heart.
20 Hagi sipisipi kva vahe'mo'za rukrahe hu'za nevu'za, ankero vahe'mo'za hu'naza kemofo nena'a maka fore hige'za, nege'za nentahiza hu'naza zanku, Anumzamofo muse hunente'za, Agi'a erisaga hume vu'naze.
And the shepherds returned, glorifying and praising God for all the things that they had heard and seen, just as it was told to them.
21 Hagi 8 knazupa avufa taga nehu'za, agi'a Jisasi'e hu'za antemi'naze. Ana agi'a ankeromo nerera rimpafima fore osu'negeno Jisasi'e hunka agi'a antegahane hu'nea kante ante'za agi'a ante ami'naze.
And after eight days were ended, so that the boy would be circumcised, his name was called JESUS, just as he was called by the Angel before he was conceived in the womb.
22 Hagi zamazeri agruhu knama vagaregeno, Mosese kasegemo'ma hu'nea kante ante'ne Josefe ene Mariakea Jisasina avare'ne Ra Anumzamofo aminaku Jerusalemi kumate ra mono nompi vu'na'e.
And after the days of her purification were fulfilled, according to the law of Moses, they brought him to Jerusalem, in order to present him to the Lord,
23 Ramofo kasegefi krente'neana, Maka ese ne'mofavrema kasentesiana ramofo ami'nigeno, ruotge mofavre manigahie hu'ne. (Eks-Ati 13:2)
just as it is written in the law of the Lord, “For every male opening the womb shall be called holy to the Lord,”
24 Ramofo kasegefi huno, kre sramanama huntesazana, Tare maho namanuro, tare kasefa namanu kre sramana vugahaze hu'nea kante ante'ne ome ana hu'na'e. (Lev-Pri 12:8.)
and in order to offer a sacrifice, according to what is said in the law of the Lord, “a pair of turtledoves or two young pigeons.”
25 Hagi mago nera Jerusalemi kumate mani'nea ne' agi'a Simioni'e. Ana nera fatgo nekino, kazigazi huno Anumzamofo amage anteno nevuno, Israeli vahe'mokizmi zamahoke ahesnia vahe fore hanigu avega anteno mani'negeno, Ruotge Avamumo'a agripina avite'ne.
And behold, there was a man in Jerusalem, whose name was Simeon, and this man was just and God-fearing, awaiting the consolation of Israel. And the Holy Spirit was with him.
26 Ruotge Avamumo korapa averi huno, ofri mani'nenka, Ra Anumzamo taza hania ne' Kraisina huntena fore hinkenka ketenka frigahne, huno asami'negeno antahino mani'ne.
And he had received an answer from the Holy Spirit: that he would not see his own death before he had seen the Christ of the Lord.
27 Ana higeno Simionina Ruotage Avamumo azeri otigeno, ra mono nompi marerino umani'negeno, Jisasi nerera ene nefakea avare'ne kasegemoma hu'neaza huke e'na'e.
And he went with the Spirit to the temple. And when the child Jesus was brought in by his parents, in order to act on his behalf according to the custom of the law,
28 Simioni'a ana mofavre nevareno, Anumzamofo ra agi erisaga nehuno amanage huno hu'ne.
he also took him up, into his arms, and he blessed God and said:
29 Ramoka kazokazo eri'za vaheka'amo'na, huvempa kema hunante'nana zana hago fore hige'na koe. Hagi natrege'na kema hunana kante ante'na narimpa frune fri'neno.
“Now you may dismiss your servant in peace, O Lord, according to your word.
30 Na'ankure tahokeno taza hanimofona, nagra navunu koe,
For my eyes have seen your salvation,
31 Kagra korapa retro hunte'namo maka vahe zamufi efore hie.
which you have prepared before the face of all peoples:
32 Agra masagino maka megi'a vahetera remsa hunezmantena, Israeli vahe kamofona ra agi amigahie.
the light of revelation to the nations and the glory of your people Israel.”
33 Ana mofavremofo nerera'ene nefakea ana kema huntea kegu tusiza hu'ne antri nehune antahintahi hakare hu'na'e.
And his father and mother were wondering over these things, which were spoken about him.
34 Ana huteno, Simioni'a asomu ke hunezmanteno, anage huno Mariana asami'ne, Antahi so'e huo. Ama mofavre kamo'a rama'a Israeli vahe'mofo zamazeri traka nehuno, mago'a nagara zamazeri onetino, mago avame'zankna huno mani'nena, rama'a vahe'mo'za zamefi humigahaze.
And Simeon blessed them, and he said to his mother Mary: “Behold, this one has been set for the ruin and for the resurrection of many in Israel, and as a sign which will be contradicted.
35 Ana hina tamage maka vahe'mofo oku'a antahintahimofona eri ama nehina, kagri'enena asane kazimo tumoka'a reaza hugahie.
And a sword will pass through your own soul, so that the thoughts of many hearts may be revealed.”
36 Hagi anampina anahu kna huno kasnampa ara agi'a Ana'e, Fanuel mofakino, Asa nagapintire. Ana a'mo ve erino neve'ene 7ni'a kafuzage mani'negeno, neve'a frigetegeno, manime vuno tavava teno mani'ne.
And there was a prophetess, Anna, a daughter of Phanuel, from the tribe of Asher. She was very advanced in years, and she had lived with her husband for seven years from her virginity.
37 Ana a'mo'a kentoza huno maninegeno kafuzage'amo'a 84'a hu'negeno mono nona notreno, monora Anumzamofona hunenteno, ne'za a'o huno nunamuna kenage'ene feru enena nehuno mani'ne.
And then she was a widow, even to her eighty-fourth year. And without departing from the temple, she was a servant to fasting and prayer, night and day.
38 Anama nehigeno anante ana a'mo'a eno, Anumzamofona susu hunenteno, Jerusalemi vahe'ma zamaza huno zamavaresanigu avegama ante'naza mofavre fore hie huno huama huno zamasami'ne.
And entering at the same hour, she confessed to the Lord. And she spoke about him to all who were awaiting the redemption of Israel.
39 Hagi Josefe ene Mariakea Ramofo kasegemo'ma hu'neazana ana mika huteke, ete Galili mopare vu'za, Nazarete kumazinire umani'naze.
And after they had performed all things according to the law of the Lord, they returned to Galilee, to their city, Nazareth.
40 Ana hu'ne umaninakeno, Mofavre'zinimo nena huno hanave netino, knare antahintahifi avitegeno, Anumzamofo asunkuzamo'a Agrane me'ne.
Now the child grew, and he was strengthened with the fullness of wisdom. And the grace of God was in him.
41 Maka kafuma ne-egeno'a Jisasi nerera ene nefakea, Anumzamo Israeli vahe kinafinti ozmaheno zmagaterenea kna (Pasova) fore'ma nehigekea, Jerusalemi vutere hu'na'e.
And his parents went every year to Jerusalem, at the time of the solemnity of Passover.
42 Hagi Jisasi'a 12fu'a kafuzage higeno, koma neha'aza hu'ne ra knamofo ne'za nenaza kna fore higeke avare'ne marerine vu'na'e.
And when he had become twelve years old, they ascended to Jerusalem, according to the custom of the feast day.
43 Hianagi ne'za neknamo vagamaregeno, nontegama vunaku neazageno, Jisasi'a Jerusalemi kumate mani'negene, nerera ene nefakea onke atreke e'na'e.
And having completed the days, when they returned, the boy Jesus remained in Jerusalem. And his parents did not realize this.
44 Hianagi zanagrama zanagesa antahi'ana, magoka e'nona vahe'ene ne-e hu'ne nentahine nevakeno kinagase'ne. Kinaga onke'ne rone'zinine, mago'a vahe zamantahigazana, a'o tagranena nome hu'naze.
But, supposing that he was in the company, they went a day’s journey, seeking him among their relatives and acquaintances.
45 Hakreke erifore osuke, ete rukrehe huke Jerusalemi ome hakenaku vu'na'e.
And not finding him, they returned to Jerusalem, seeking him.
46 Hagi 3'a zagegnama enevige'ne, ra mono nompi kasegemofo rempi huzami vahe'mofo amunompi manineno, kema hazana nentahino zamantahige kea nehigeke, ome kene eri fore hu'na'e.
And it happened that, after three days, they found him in the temple, sitting in the midst of the doctors, listening to them and questioning them.
47 Hagi Jisasi'ma antahino keno nehuno, kenonazamima hiazankura, maka'mo'za ana kema nentahiza, zamagra antri hu'za hakare antahintahi hu'naze.
But all who listened to him were astonished over his prudence and his responses.
48 Hagi nererake nefake nege'ne, antri nehune, nerera'a anage huno hu'ne. Mofavre timoka na'a higenka amanahu kavukvara hunerantane? Ko, negafa'ene, nagranena amuhohuta kagrikura nehako'e.
And upon seeing him, they wondered. And his mother said to him: “Son, why have you acted this way toward us? Behold, your father and I were seeking you in sorrow.”
49 Hianagi Jisasi'a kenona huno, Nahigeta Nagrikura nehaka'e? Nafa'nimofo nompi manigahuanki tanagra ontahina'o?
And he said to them: “How is it that you were seeking me? For did you not know that it is necessary for me to be in these things which are of my Father?”
50 Hianagi anagema hiankemofo agafa'a nerera'ene nefakea antahi amara osu'na'e.
And they did not understand the word that he spoke to them.
51 Anante Jisasi'a nerera'ene nefa'ene Nasareti uramino umani'neno, nererane nefane kea amage ante'ne. Hianagi nerera'a maka'zama hiazana agu'afi erintegeno me'ne.
And he descended with them and went to Nazareth. And he was subordinate to them. And his mother kept all these words in her heart.
52 Jisasi'a knare antahintahizane hanavene nena nehigeno, Anumzamo'a avesinentegeno, vahe'mo'zanena avesinte'naze.
And Jesus advanced in wisdom, and in age, and in grace, with God and men.
