Ndenshici kwambeti mwinshibe cakubinga pali byonse mbyobalamwambila.
5 Awo mu biro Kabaka Kerode we yafugira Obuyudaaya, waaliwo kabona erinnya lye Zaakaliya, nga wa mu kitongole kya Abiya, nga mukyala we naye yali wa mu kika kya Alooni, erinnya lye Erisabesi.
Pacindi mwami Helode mpwalikuba muleli wacishi ca Yudeya kwalikuba shimilumbo walikukwiweti Sakaliya, wamukalikoto ka beshimilumbo ka Abija. Mukashendi Sakaliya walikuba Lisabeti wa mumukowa wa Aloni.
6 Abantu abo bombi baali batuukirivu mu maaso ga Katonda, era nga batambulira mu mateeka ga Katonda gonna, ne mu biragiro bya Mukama, nga tebaliiko kya kunenyezebwa.
Bonse babili balikuba bantu beshikunyumfwila Lesa, kayi bali kukonkela Milawo ne byonse Lesa mbyalikuyandeti babinse.
7 Bombi baali bakaddiye nnyo, era tebaalina mwana, kubanga Erisabesi yali mugumba.
Nomba nkabalikukutepo mwana, pakwinga Lisabeti walikuba cumba kayi balikuba balacekulu.
8 Awo lwali lumu, Zaakaliya bwe yali ng’ali ku mulimu gwe ogw’obwakabona mu maaso ga Katonda, kubanga kye kyali ekiseera eky’oluwalo lwe,
Busuba nabumbi, Sakaliya walikusebensa ncito yakendi yabushimilumbo mu Ng'anda ya Lesa. Pakwinga bwalikuba busuba bwalikoto lyakendi.

Lino kwelana ne cinga ca beshimilumbo, balasala Sakaliya kwambeti ayenga mu Ng'anda ya Lesa kuya kutenta lubani.
10 Mu ssaawa eyo ey’okwoteza obubaane ekibiina kyonna eky’abantu baali bakuŋŋaanidde mu luggya lwa Yeekaalu.
Pacindi Sakaliya mpwalikutenta lubani, likoto lya bantu balikuba pansa kabapaila.
11 Awo malayika wa Mukama n’alabikira Zaakaliya, n’ayimirira ku luuyi olwa ddyo olw’ekyoto okwoterezebwa obubaane!
Lino mwakutayeyela Sakaliya walabona mungelo wa Mwami, kali wemana kulubasu lwalulyo lwanteme pali kutentelwa lubani.
12 Zaakaliya n’atya nnyo bwe yalaba malayika, entiisa n’emukwata.
Sakaliya walakankamana nekutina.
13 Naye malayika n’amugamba nti, “Totya Zaakaliya! Kubanga okusaba kwo kuwuliddwa, era mukazi wo Erisabesi ajja kukuzaalira omwana wabulenzi. Olimutuuma erinnya Yokaana.
Nsombi mungelo uyo walamwambileti, “Kotatina Sakaliya, Lesa lanyumfu kupaila kwakobe, neco mukashobe lisabeti nakakusemene mwana mutuloba ukamutumbe lineti Yohane.
14 Mwembi mulisanyuka nnyo ne mujaguza. Era bangi abalibasanyukirako olw’okuzaalibwa kwe.
Nakakukondweleshe ne kukusangalasha cikamba, kayi bantu bangi naboyo nibakakondwe pacebo cakusemwa kwakendi.
15 Kubanga aliba mukulu mu maaso ga Katonda. Talinywa mwenge wadde ekitamiiza kyonna. Era alijjuzibwa Mwoyo Mutukuvu ng’akyali mu lubuto lwa nnyina.
Pakwinga mwana uyo nakabe mukulene pamenso a Lesa, kayi nteshi akanwenga waini nambi byeshikukola. Nakakutenga ngofu sha Mushimu Uswepa nkacili mulibunda.
16 Era alireetera abaana ba Isirayiri bangi okudda eri Mukama Katonda waabwe.
Uyu muntu nakenshisheti ba Isilayeli bangi bakabwele kuli Mwami Lesa wabo.
17 Aliweerereza mu mwoyo ne mu maanyi aga nnabbi Eriya, n’akyusa emitima gy’aba kitaabwe okudda eri abaana baabwe, n’okukyusa emitima gy’abajeemu okudda eri amagezi g’abatuukirivu alyoke ateeketeeke abantu okulindirira Mukama.”
Yohane nakabe kuntangu kwa Mwami, kayi nakabe ne Mushimu nengofu mbuli shali kuba ne mushinshimi Eliya. Nakalete lunyufwano pakati pabana neba meshabo.” “Nakasandule bantu batanyumfwili Lesa kwambeti bakabe ne miyeyo ya bantu balulama. Nakabambe bantu ba Mwami kwambeti babenga balibambila.”
18 Zaakaliya n’agamba malayika nti, “Ekyo nnaakimanya ntya? Kubanga nze ndi mukadde, ne mukazi wange naye akaddiya nnyo.”
Sakaliya walepusha mungelo uyo, “Nomba nganjishibaconi kwambeti ncolambanga nicikenshike? Pakwinga ame ndacekulu neye mukashame lacekulu.”
19 Malayika n’amugamba nti, “Nze Gabulyeri ayimirira mu maaso ga Katonda, era y’antumye okwogera naawe n’okukuleetera amawulire gano.
Mungelo usa walakumbuleti, ame njame Gabiliyeli. Nkute kwimana pamenso a Lesa cindi conse. Nendi elantumu kwambeti nkwambile bintu ibi.
20 Naye olw’okuba nga tokkirizza bigambo byange, ojja kuziba omumwa, era togenda kuddamu kwogera okutuusa ng’ebintu ebyo bimaze okubaawo. Kubanga ebigambo byange byonna birimala kutuukirira mu kiseera kyabyo.”
Nomba pakwinga uliya kushoma mulumbe uyu ngondamba weti ukenshike pacindi celela, nube cibulu nteti ucikonshenga kwamba, mpaka ibi bintu bikenshike.
21 Abantu abaali balindirira ebweru wa Yeekaalu okulaba Zaakaliya ne beewuunya nnyo ekyamulwisaayo ennyo bw’atyo.
Pacindi ico bantu balikupembelela Sakaliya balakankamana nkabepushanyeti nicani lamanta cindi citali mu Ng'anda ya Lesa?
22 Oluvannyuma ennyo bwe yavaayo, yali tasobola kwogera nabo, ne bategeera nga mu Yeekaalu afuniddeyo okwolesebwa. N’asigala ng’azibye omumwa naye ng’abategeeza mu bubonero.
Lino mpwalapula pansa nkalikucikonsha kwamba nabo. Nomba nabo balenshiba kwambeti labono cimboni mboni, popelapo walatatika kwamba ne makasa mbuli cibulu, neco walapitilisha kuba cibulu.
23 N’abeera mu Yeekaalu okutuusa ennaku ze ez’oluwalo lwe zaggwaako n’alyoka addayo eka.
Mpwalapwa masuba akusebensa mu Ng'anda ya Lesa, Sakaliya walaya kucomwabo.
24 Ennaku ezo bwe zaayitawo, mukazi we Erisabesi n’aba olubuto, ne yeekwekera ebbanga lya myezi etaano.
Panyuma pakendi Lisabeti walemita, lino nkalikupulapula mu ng'anda kwamyenshi isanu nkambeti,
25 N’agamba nti, “Mukama nga wa kisa kingi, kubanga anziggyeeko ensonyi olw’obutaba na mwana.”
“Lesa lino lanyumfwili inkumbo pakunyinshileci lafunyu insoni shakame pamenso abantu.”
26 Awo mu mwezi ogw’omukaaga, Katonda n’atuma malayika Gabulyeri mu kibuga Nazaaleesi eky’omu Ggaliraaya
Mumwenshi wacisanu ne umo kufuma mpwalemita Lisabeti, Lesa walatuma mungelo Gabiliyeli ku munshi naumbi waku Galileya, walikukwiweti Nasaleti.

Walaya ku mulindu walikukwiweti Maliya. Maliya walikuba wamamikilwa kumutuloba lina lyakendi ni Yosefe wa mumukowa wa Dafeti.
28 Awo Gabulyeri n’alabikira Maliyamu n’amulamusa nti, “Mirembe! Ggwe aweereddwa omukisa! Mukama ali naawe!”
Mungelo mpwalashika kuli Maliya walambeti, mitende obe walelekwa ne Lesa. Lesa uli ne njobe.
29 Maliyamu n’atya, n’abulwa n’ekyokwogera, ng’okulamusa okwo kumutabudde, nga n’amakulu gaakwo tagategeera.
Maliya mpwalanyumfwa maswi a mungelo walatilimuka walipusha mumoyo wakendi eti, “Nikupa mitende kwamushobo cini uku?”
30 Awo malayika n’amugamba nti, “Totya, Maliyamu, kubanga olabye ekisa mu maaso ga Katonda.
Popelapo mungelo walamwambileti, “Kotatina, Maliya; Pakwinga Lesa lakunyumfwili inkumbo.
31 Kubanga, laba, olibeera olubuto, olizaala omwana wabulenzi era olimutuuma erinnya, Yesu.
Bona nukemite ne kusema mwana mutuloba ukamutumbeti Yesu.
32 Agenda kuba mukulu, wa kitiibwa, era aliyitibwa Omwana w’Oyo Ali Waggulu Ennyo, era Mukama Katonda alimuwa entebe ey’obwakabaka eya jjajjaawe Dawudi.
“Nakabe mukulene kayi nakakwiweti mwanendi Lesa wakwilu wapitapo. Mwami Lesa nakamupe cipuna ca bwami ca Dafeti.
Nakabe Mwami wa ba Islaeli kucindi conse ne bwendeleshi bwakendi nteshi bukapwepo!” (aiōn g165)
34 Awo Maliyamu n’abuuza malayika nti, “Ekyo kiriba kitya? Kubanga simanyi musajja.”
Lino, Maliya walamwipusha Mungelo eti, “Nomba ici ngacinshika econi ame nkana nkumanapo ne mutuloba?”
35 Malayika n’amuddamu nti, “Mwoyo Mutukuvu alikukkako, n’amaanyi g’Oyo Ali Waggulu Ennyo galikubuutikira, n’omwana alizaalibwa aliba mutukuvu, Omwana wa Katonda.
Mungelo walakumbuleti, Mushimu Uswepa nukese palinjobe nengofu sha Lesa wapita byonse nishikakufwekelele. Neco mwana eshi akasemwe nakakwiweti waswepa, Mwanendi Lesa.
36 Laba, muganda wo Erisabesi eyayitibwanga omugumba, kati ali lubuto lwa myezi mukaaga mu bukadde bwe.
“Bona mukwenu Lisabeti usa walikwambweti nkaseme, lino lapembelenga kuya kuba ne mwana mutuloba mubucembele bwakendi. Pakwinga ukute myenshi isanu ne umo kakute libunda.
37 Kubanga buli kigambo kiyinzika eri Katonda.”
Pakwinga paliya ceshi cikamwalile Lesa.”
38 Maliyamu n’addamu nti, “Nze ndi muweereza wa Mukama, kibe ku nze nga bw’ogambye.” Malayika n’ava w’ali, n’agenda.
Maliya walakumbuleti, “Kacinshika mbuli momulambili, pakwinga ame ndemusha wa Mwami.” Lino mungelo usa walamushiya.
39 Awo mu biro ebyo, Maliyamu n’ayanguwa okugenda mu nsi ya Buyudaaya ey’ensozi, mu kibuga kyayo.
Mpopalapita masuba ang'ana, Maliya walanyamuka bulwendo bwakufwambana kuya kumusena wa milundu, kumunshi wa Yudeya.
40 N’ayingira mu nnyumba ya Zaakaliya n’alamusa Erisabesi.
Walengila mung'anda ya Sakaliya nekumupa mutende Lisabeti.
41 Naye Maliyamu bwe yalamusa Erisabesi, omwana eyali mu lubuto lwa Erisabesi n’abuukabuuka era n’ajjuzibwa Mwoyo Mutukuvu.
Pacindi Lisabeti mpwalanyumfwa mutende wa Maliya, mwana walatatika kunyanyala mwakukondwa mulibunda mwakendi. Lisabeti walesushiwa ne ngofu sha Mushimu Uswepa,
42 Erisabesi n’alyoka ayogerera mu ddoboozi ery’omwanguka nti, “Oweereddwa omukisa, ggwe mu bakazi, era n’omwana ali mu lubuto lwo aweereddwa omukisa.
kayi walolobesha ne kwambeti, “Ukute colwe pakati pa batukashi bonse, kayi mwanobe weshi akasemwe walelekwa.
43 Nga nfunye ekitiibwa kinene ggwe nnyina wa Mukama wange okujja okunkyalira!

44 Kubanga bw’oyingidde n’onnamusa, omwana ali mu lubuto lwange oluwulidde ku ddoboozi lyo ne yeekyusakyusa olw’essanyu!
Pakwinga mpondalanyumfowa mutende wenu, mwana walatatika kunyanyala mwakukondwa mulibunda mwakame.
45 Oweereddwa omukisa bw’okkirizza nti ebintu ebyo Mukama bya kwogeddeko birituukirizibwa.”
Ukute colwe pakwinga walashoma kwambeti makani Lesa ayo ngowalambilwa nakubinga nakenshike.”
46 Maliyamu n’agamba nti,
Popelapo Maliya walalumbaisha nekwambeti, “Ndalumbu Mwami mumoyo mwakame,
47 “Emmeeme yange etendereza Mukama. N’omwoyo gwange gusanyukidde Katonda omulokozi wange,
Kayi mushimu wakame wakondwa muli Lesa Mupulushi wakame.
48 Kubanga alabye obuwombeefu bw’omuweereza we. Kubanga laba, okuva kaakano, ab’emirembe gyonna banaampitanga eyaweebwa omukisa.
Pakwinga labono kulicepesha kwakame ndemusha wakendi kufuma lelo, bantu bonse pacishi ca panshi nibakankuweti walelekwa.
49 Kubanga Owaamaanyi ankoledde ebikulu; N’erinnya lye ttukuvu.
Pakwinga nendi Lesa wangofu shonse lanjinshili bintu binene, lina lyakendi lyaswepa.
50 N’okusaasira kwe kwa mirembe na mirembe eri abo abamutya.
Kayi inkumbo shakendi shili pali bonse bantu abo bakute kumulemeka kufuma kumusemano kushika kumusemano naumbi.
51 Akoze eby’amaanyi n’omukono gwe. Asaasaanyizza ab’emitima egy’amalala.
Likasa lyakendi lilenshi bintu binene byangofu byeshi kukankamanisha, lamwaya bantu bakute miyeyo ya kulisumpula.
52 Awanudde abafuzi ku ntebe zaabwe ez’obwakabaka n’agulumiza abawombeefu.
Lafunyu Bami bangofu shinene pabipuna byabo, nekusumpula abo beshi kulicepesha.
53 Abali mu kwetaaga abakkusizza ebirungi. Naye abagagga n’abagoba nga tabawaddeeyo kantu.
Lapa bantu bakute nsala bintu bingi kwambeti bekute, Lababweshe babile kwakubula kubapapo kantu kalikonse.
54 Adduukiridde omuweereza we Isirayiri, n’ajjukira okusaasira,
Lanyamfwa Islaeli musebenshi wakendi kayi uliya kuluba kumwinshila inkumbo
mbuli ncalalaya bamashali betu bakulukulu, Abulahamu ne bashikulu bakendi mpaka muyayaya.” (aiōn g165)
56 Maliyamu n’amala ewa Erisabesi muganda we, ng’emyezi esatu, n’alyoka addayo ewuwe.
Maliya walekala ne Lisabeti myenshi yanda kukwana itatu, panyuma pakendi walabwelela kucomwabo.
57 Awo ekiseera kya Erisabesi eky’okuzaala ne kituuka, n’azaala omwana wabulenzi.
Lino cindi cakwambeti Lisabeti atumbuke calakwana, walasema mwana mutuloba.
58 Baliraanwa ba Erisabesi n’ab’ekika kye ne bawulira nga Mukama bw’amulaze ekisa, ne basanyukira wamu naye.
Beshikamukowa ne banendi mpobalanyufwa mbuli Mwami ncalamubela inkumbo Lisabeti balakondwa pamo bonse ne ndiye.
59 Awo omwana bwe yaweza ennaku omunaana, ne bajja okumukomola, bonna nga balowooza nti ajja kutuumibwa erinnya lya kitaawe Zaakaliya.
Mwana usa mpwalakwanisha nsondo ne busuba bumo balesa kwambeti bamwelule, kayi bamutumbe lina lyabaishi ba Sakaliya,
60 Naye Erisabesi n’abagamba nti, “Nedda, ajja kutuumibwa Yokaana.”
nsombi banyina balakana kwambeti, “Welela kukwiweti Yohane.”
61 Ne bamuwakanya nga bagamba nti, “Mu kika kyo kyonna tetuwulirangayo yatuumibwa linnya eryo.”

62 Ne babuuza kitaawe w’omwana erinnya ly’ayagala atuumibwe.
Lino balambila baishi ne makasa, ne kubepusheti, “Mulandanga tumutumbe lina cini?”
63 N’abasaba eky’okuwandiikako, n’awandiikako nti, “Erinnya lye ye Yokaana!” Bonna ne beewuunya nnyo!
Popelapo Sakaliya walasebensesha makasa pakusenga cakulembelapo, ne kulembeti, “Lina lyakendi ni Yohane.” Bantu bonse balakankamana.
64 Amangwago akamwa ka Zaakaliya ne kagguka, n’olulimi lwe ne lusumulukuka, n’atandika okwogera n’okutendereza Katonda.
Mpwalapwishowa kulemba Sakaliya walatatika kwamba, nekutatika kulumbaisha Lesa.
65 Abantu bonna ab’omu kitundu ekyo ne batya nnyo, era ebigambo ebyo ne bibuna mu nsi yonna ey’e Buyudaaya ey’ensozi.
Bantu bonse balatina abo balikuba bekala pepi nendiye. Neco lulumbi ulo lwalamwaika mucishi conse ca tulundu twa mu Yudeya.
66 Buli eyawulira ebigambo ebyo n’abirowoozaako nnyo mu mutima gwe, ne yeebuuza nti, “Naye omwana ono bw’alikula aliba atya?” Kubanga awatali kubuusabuusa, omukono gwa Mukama gwali wamu naye.
Bonse abo balanyufwa mulumbe uyo bali kabayeya mumyoyo yabo kayi ne kulipusheti, “Uyu mwana nakabe wamushobo cini?” Pakwinga cilabonekelenga limo kwambeti ngofu sha Lesa shili pali endiye.
67 Awo Zaakaliya kitaawe, n’ajjula Mwoyo Mutukuvu n’awa obunnabbi nti,
