Ruku 2
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.
Now it happened in those days that a decree went out from Caesar Augustus that the whole inhabited world should be enrolled.
2 Hagi Siria mopafina Kuiriniasi Gavana mani'nere, ana knafi ese kna agafa hu'za zamagia kre'naze.
This first census took place while Quirinius was governing Syria.
3 Ana hige'za maka vahe'mo'za zamagi kre'naku mopa agafa zimire vutere hu'naze.
So everyone was traveling, each to his own town, to enroll himself.
4 Josefe'a agranena kini ne' Deviti nagapinti ne'kino, Nazareti kuma Galili kazigati atreno, Betlehemue nehaza Deviti kumate vu'ne.
So Joseph also went up from Galilee, out of Natsareth town, into Judea to the city of David, that is called Bethlehem, because he was of David's ‘house’, that is, line of descent,
5 Josefe'a a'isa kinte'nea a' nevareno, Kamani vahe'mo'za zanagima krenagu amu'ene hu'negene vu'na'e.
to enroll himself with Mary, the woman who had been betrothed to him, who was pregnant.
6 Hagi anantega umaninakeno, Mariana mofavrema kasentesia kna egeno,
So it happened that when they got there the days for her to give birth were completed;
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 gave birth to her firstborn Son, wrapped Him in pieces of cloth and laid Him in the manger, because there was no room for them in the lodging place.
8 Hagi ana kuma tva'onte, sipisipi kva vahe'mo'za kenage sipisipia kva hu'za megi'a mani'nageno,
Now there were shepherds in that same area, staying out in the field and keeping the nightly watches over their flock.
9 ame huno ankeromo efore nehigeno, Ramofo masa'amo anamokizmi remsa hunezmantege'za koro hu'naze.
When wow, an angel of the Lord stood before them, and the glory of the Lord shone around them, and they were terrified.
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.
The angel said to them: “Do not be afraid because listen, I am announcing the most joyful news to you, which will be to all the people!
11 Na'ankure menina Deviti kumatera, tamagri'ma tamagu'vazinia mofavre kasente'ne. Hanki ana nera Ramo, Kraisi'e.
You see, today, in David's city, a Savior was born to you, who is Lord Christ!
12 Hanki avame'za ome kesnazana amana hu'ne, ana mofavre tavaravefi antegafino bulimakao ne'za zuompafi ante'nenketa ome kegahaze.
And this is the sign to you: you will find a Baby wrapped in pieces of cloth, 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,
Suddenly a multitude of the heavenly army was with the angel 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, good will toward mankind!”
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.
So when the angels went away from them into the sky the men, the shepherds, said to one another, “Hey, let's go to Bethlehem and see this event that has taken place, that the Lord made known 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.
So they went in a hurry and located both Mary and Joseph, and the Baby lying in the 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.
And having seen they spread an exact account of the saying that had been spoken to them concerning this Child.
18 Hagi ana kema maka vahe'mo'za antahi'zamo'za, antri nehu'za antahintahi hakare hu'naze.
All who heard marveled at the things told them by the shepherds.
19 Hianagi Maria'a ana nanekema hazankea nentahino, agu'afi ana maka kea nenteno ana kea agera okani'ne.
As for Mary, she treasured all these sayings, 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.
The shepherds returned, glorifying and praising God over all that they had heard and seen, just as it was told 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.
When eight days were completed so as to circumcise Him, His name was indeed called JESUS, the name given 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 when the days of their purification according to the law of Moses were completed, they took Him to Jerusalem 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, “Every male who opens a 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 to offer a sacrifice according to what was specified in the Lord's Law, “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.
Well now, there was a man in Jerusalem whose name was Simeon; this man was righteous and devout, expectantly waiting for the Consolation of Israel, and Holy Spirit was upon 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.
(It had been revealed to him repeatedly by the Holy Spirit that he would not see death until he saw the Lord's Messiah.)
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.
So by the Spirit he came into the temple; and when the parents brought the Child Jesus in, to do concerning Him according to the custom of the law,
28 Simioni'a ana mofavre nevareno, Anumzamofo ra agi erisaga nehuno amanage huno hu'ne.
Simeon took Him into his arms and 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.
“Sovereign, now You can release your slave in peace, according to Your word,
30 Na'ankure tahokeno taza hanimofona, nagra navunu koe,
because 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.
a light for revelation to Gentiles, 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 Joseph and His mother were marveling at the things being spoken concerning 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.
Then Simeon blessed them, and said to Mary His mother: “Listen, this One is appointed to bring about the fall and rising of many in Israel, and to be a sign that is spoken against,
35 Ana hina tamage maka vahe'mofo oku'a antahintahimofona eri ama nehina, kagri'enena asane kazimo tumoka'a reaza hugahie.
so that the reasonings of many hearts may be revealed (furthermore, a sword will pass through your own soul also).”
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.
Also there was a prophetess Anna, a daughter of Phanuel, of the tribe of Asher—she was of a great age, having lived with a husband 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 having been a widow for about eighty-four years—who did not depart from the temple, serving God with fastings and petitions 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.
Well she, having come up at that very moment, started praising the Lord, and kept on speaking of Him to all those in Jerusalem who were looking for redemption.
39 Hagi Josefe ene Mariakea Ramofo kasegemo'ma hu'neazana ana mika huteke, ete Galili mopare vu'za, Nazarete kumazinire umani'naze.
When they had completed everything, according to the law of the Lord, they went back to Galilee, to their own town, Natsareth.
40 Ana hu'ne umaninakeno, Mofavre'zinimo nena huno hanave netino, knare antahintahifi avitegeno, Anumzamofo asunkuzamo'a Agrane me'ne.
And the Child kept growing and being strengthened in spirit, being filled with wisdom; yes, the grace of God was upon 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.
Now every year His parents would go to Jerusalem to the feast of the 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.
so when He was twelve years old they went up to Jerusalem according to the custom of the feast.
43 Hianagi ne'za neknamo vagamaregeno, nontegama vunaku neazageno, Jisasi'a Jerusalemi kumate mani'negene, nerera ene nefakea onke atreke e'na'e.
When they had fulfilled the days, as they were returning, the boy Jesus stayed behind in Jerusalem, but Joseph and His mother did not know it.
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.
Supposing Him to be in the caravan, they went a day's journey and then started looking for Him among their relatives and acquaintances.
45 Hakreke erifore osuke, ete rukrehe huke Jerusalemi ome hakenaku vu'na'e.
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.
So it happened that after three days they found Him in the temple, sitting in the midst of the teachers, both listening to them and asking them questions.
47 Hagi Jisasi'ma antahino keno nehuno, kenonazamima hiazankura, maka'mo'za ana kema nentahiza, zamagra antri hu'za hakare antahintahi hu'naze.
(All who heard Him were astonished at His understanding and answers.)
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.
So upon seeing Him they were amazed, and His mother said to Him: “Son, why have you treated us like this? Look, your father and I have been searching for you in distress.”
49 Hianagi Jisasi'a kenona huno, Nahigeta Nagrikura nehaka'e? Nafa'nimofo nompi manigahuanki tanagra ontahina'o?
So He said to them: “Why were you seeking me? Didn't you know that I must be about my Father's concerns?”
50 Hianagi anagema hiankemofo agafa'a nerera'ene nefakea antahi amara osu'na'e.
But they did not understand the statement that He made 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.
Then He went down with them and came to Natsareth, and continued subordinating Himself to them; His mother kept all these sayings in her heart.
52 Jisasi'a knare antahintahizane hanavene nena nehigeno, Anumzamo'a avesinentegeno, vahe'mo'zanena avesinte'naze.
And Jesus kept increasing in wisdom and stature, and in favor with God and men.
