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 in those days an edict was published by Augustus Cesar, that all the world should be enrolled or taxed,
2 Hagi Siria mopafina Kuiriniasi Gavana mani'nere, ana knafi ese kna agafa hu'za zamagia kre'naze.
(this tax was first levied when Cyrenius was governor of Syria) and they all went to be enrolled,
3 Ana hige'za maka vahe'mo'za zamagi kre'naku mopa agafa zimire vutere hu'naze.
every 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.
so Joseph also went up from Galilee, out of the city of Nazareth, into Judea to the city of David, which is called Bethlehem (because he
5 Josefe'a a'isa kinte'nea a' nevareno, Kamani vahe'mo'za zanagima krenagu amu'ene hu'negene vu'na'e.
was of the house and line of David) to be enrolled with Mary his espoused wife, who was big with child.
6 Hagi anantega umaninakeno, Mariana mofavrema kasentesia kna egeno,
And while they were there, the days of her delivery were fulfilled,
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 son, the first-born, and wrapped him in swaddling cloths, and laid him in a manger; because there was no room for them in 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 in the same country shepherds out in the fields, keeping watch over their flock by night: and lo,
9 ame huno ankeromo efore nehigeno, Ramofo masa'amo anamokizmi remsa hunezmantege'za koro hu'naze.
an angel of the Lord stood over them, and the glory of the Lord shone round them, and they were greatly 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.
and the angel said to them, Be not affrighted; for behold I bring you good tidings of great joy which shall be to all people,
11 Na'ankure menina Deviti kumatera, tamagri'ma tamagu'vazinia mofavre kasente'ne. Hanki ana nera Ramo, Kraisi'e.
that this day is born, in the city of David, your Saviour 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 shall be a sign to you, Ye shall find the child wrapped in swaddling bands 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 on a sudden there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host,
14 Monafi marerisa kumapi nemania Anumzamo'a Ra agi erino. Hagi mopafina vahe'mo'za zamarimpa frune maniho. Anumzamo'a rimpa fru huzmante!
praising God, and saying, Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good-will towards men.
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 when the angels went from them into heaven, the shepherds said to one another, Let us go to Bethlehem, and see this which hath been told us, which the Lord hath made known unto 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 came with speed, and found both Mary and Joseph, and the child 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 when they had seen it, they divulged what had been told them concerning this child:
18 Hagi ana kema maka vahe'mo'za antahi'zamo'za, antri nehu'za antahintahi hakare hu'naze.
and all that heard it, were amazed at the things which were related 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 treasured up 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 which they had heard and seen, according as it had been told unto 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 when eight days were fulfilled for the circumcising of the child, his name was called JESUS, having been so 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 when the days of her purification according to the law of Moses were fulfilled, they brought Him to Jerusalem to present Him before the Lord:
23 Ramofo kasegefi krente'neana, Maka ese ne'mofavrema kasentesiana ramofo ami'nigeno, ruotge mofavre manigahie hu'ne. (Eks-Ati 13:2)
(as it is written in the law of the Lord, That every male that openeth the womb shall be called holy to the Lord: ) and to offer a sacrifice,
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.)
according to what is required in the law of the Lord, a pair of turtle-doves 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 there was a man at Jerusalem, whose name was Simeon, and he was a just and a religious man, who expected the consolation of Israel; and the 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.
And it was revealed to him by the holy Spirit, that he should not die before he had seen the Anointed 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 came by the influence of the Spirit into the temple, as his parents brought in the child Jesus 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.
and he took Him into his arms,
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.
and blessed God, and said, "Now, Lord, thou dismissest thy servant in peace, according to thy word;
30 Na'ankure tahokeno taza hanimofona, nagra navunu koe,
for mine eyes have seen thy salvation, which thou hast provided in the sight of all people,
31 Kagra korapa retro hunte'namo maka vahe zamufi efore hie.
a light for the enlightening of the Gentiles,
32 Agra masagino maka megi'a vahetera remsa hunezmantena, Israeli vahe kamofona ra agi amigahie.
and the glory of thy 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 amazed at the things that were 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.
And Simeon blessed them, and said to Mary his mother, Behold, this child is appointed for the fall and rising again of many in Israel, and for a sign which shall be spoken against,
35 Ana hina tamage maka vahe'mofo oku'a antahintahimofona eri ama nehina, kagri'enena asane kazimo tumoka'a reaza hugahie.
(and a sword shall pierce through thy own soul also) that the thoughts of many hearts may be discovered.
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 one Anna, a prophetess, the daughter of Phanuel, of the tribe of Aser; who was of a great age, having lived with a husband seven years from her first marrying,
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 had been a widow about eighty four years; who departed not from the temple; serving God with fastings and prayers 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 coming in at the very same time, gave thanks unto the Lord, and spake of Him to all that were looking for redemption in Jerusalem.
39 Hagi Josefe ene Mariakea Ramofo kasegemo'ma hu'neazana ana mika huteke, ete Galili mopare vu'za, Nazarete kumazinire umani'naze.
And when they had performed all things according to the law of the Lord, they returned into Galilee, to their own city Nazareth.
40 Ana hu'ne umaninakeno, Mofavre'zinimo nena huno hanave netino, knare antahintahifi avitegeno, Anumzamofo asunkuzamo'a Agrane me'ne.
And the child grew, and became strong in spirit, being filled with wisdom; and 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 his parents went every year to Jerusalem at 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.
and when He was twelve years old, going up to Jerusalem, as usual at the feast, and having finished the time,
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 returned, the child Jesus stayed behind in Jerusalem: and 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.
but supposing Him to be in the company, went a day's journey, and then sought for Him among their kindred and acquaintance:
45 Hakreke erifore osuke, ete rukrehe huke Jerusalemi ome hakenaku vu'na'e.
and not finding Him they returned to Jerusalem seeking for 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 after three days they found Him in the temple, sitting in the midst of the doctors, attending 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.
And all that heard Him were astonished at his understanding and his 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.
And when they saw Him, they were amazed. And his mother said to Him, Son, why didst thou deal thus with us? behold, thy father and I with grief have been seeking for thee.
49 Hianagi Jisasi'a kenona huno, Nahigeta Nagrikura nehaka'e? Nafa'nimofo nompi manigahuanki tanagra ontahina'o?
And He said to them, Why did ye so seek me? Did not ye know that I ought to be in my Father's house?
50 Hianagi anagema hiankemofo agafa'a nerera'ene nefakea antahi amara osu'na'e.
but they did not understand the word which He spake 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 Nazareth, and was subject to them. And 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 increased in wisdom and stature, and in favor with God and men.
