ULukha 2
1 Kwasekusithi ngalezonsuku, isimiso saphuma kuKesari uAgastasi, sokuthi kubhalwe umhlaba wonke.
EIA kekahi mea ia mau la, hoolahaia'e la ke kauoha a Kaisara Augusato, e kakauia i ka palapala ko ke aupuni a pau.
2 Lokhukubhalwa kwakungokokuqala ukwenziwa lapho uKwiriniya engumbusi weSiriya.
I ke alii kiaaina ana o Kurenio ma Suria, ka hoomaka ana o keia kakau mua ana.
3 Bonke basebesiya ukuze bayebhalwa, ngulowo lalowo emzini wakibo.
Pau no i ka hele i kakauia'i i ka palapala o kela mea keia mea i kona kulanakauhale iho.
4 LoJosefa laye wenyuka esuka eGalili, emzini iNazaretha, waya eJudiya, emzini kaDavida, othiwa yiBhethelehema, ngoba wayengowendlu lowosendo lukaDavida,
O Iosepa kekahi i pii ae, mai Galilaia ae, mailoko mai o Nazareta ke kulanakauhale a hiki i Iudea, i ko Davida kulanakauhale i kapaia o Betelehema, (no ka mea, no ka hale ia a me ka ohaua a Davida, )
5 ukuyabhalwa kanye loMariya umkakhe ayemganile, owayezithwele.
I kakauia'i me Maria ka wahine i hoopalauia nana, e koko ana.
6 Kwasekusithi belapho, zaseziphelela insuku zokubeletha kwakhe.
A oiai laua malaila, hiki kona manawa e hanau ai.
7 Wasebeletha indodana yakhe eyingqabutho, wayigoqela ngamalembu, wayilalisa emkolweni, ngoba kwakungelandawo yabo endlini yezihambi.
Hanau iho la oia i kana makahiapo kane; wahi iho la ia ia i ke kapa keiki, a hoomoe iho la ia ia ma kahi hanai holoholona, no ka mea, aole wahi kaawale no lakou maloko o ka hale hookipa.
8 Njalo kwakukhona kulelolizwe abelusi ababehlala egangeni futhi belinde umhlambi wabo ebusuku.
Aia i kela aina he mau kahuhipa e noho ana i ke kula, a e kiai ana i ka lakou mau poe hipa i ka po.
9 Njalo khangela, ingilosi yeNkosi yema eduze kwabo, lenkazimulo yeNkosi yakhanya ibazingelezele; njalo besaba ngokwesaba okukhulu.
Aia hoi! Kau mai la ka anela o ka Haku io lakou la, a hoomalamalama mai la ka nani o ka Haku ia lakou a puni, a makau loa iho la lakou.
10 Ingilosi yasisithi kubo: Lingesabi; ngoba khangelani, ngitshumayela indaba ezinhle kini ezentokozo enkulu, ezakuba kubantu bonke;
A olelo mai la ka anela ia lakou, Mai makau oukou, no ka mea, eia hoi, ke hai aku nei au ia oukou i ka mea maikai, e olioli nui ai e lilo ana no na kanaka a pau.
11 ngoba lizalelwe lamuhla uMsindisi, onguKristu iNkosi, emzini kaDavida.
No ka mea, i keia la i hanau ai, ma ke kulanakauhale o Davida, he Ola no oukou, oia ka Mesia ka Haku.
12 Njalo lokhu kuzakuba yisibonakaliso kini: Lizathola usane lugoqelwe ngamalembu, lulele emkolweni.
Eia hoi ka hoailona no oukou, e loaa auanei ia oukou ke keiki ua wahiia i ke kapa keiki, e moe ana ma kahi hanai holoholona.
13 Njalo kwahle kwaba khona kanye lengilosi ixuku lebutho lasezulwini, lidumisa uNkulunkulu, lisithi:
A emo ole mai la ka lehulehu o ka puali o ka lani me ua anela la, e hoolea ana i ke Akua, e olelo ana,
14 Udumo kalube kuNkulunkulu kweliphezulu, lokuthula emhlabeni; isifiso esihle ebantwini.
E hoonaniia ke Akua ma na lani kiekie loa, a he malu hoi ma ka honua; he aloha no i kauaka.
15 Kwasekusithi, ingilosi sezisukile kubo zisiya ezulwini, abantu, abangabelusi, bakhulumisana besithi: Ake siye eBhethelehema, sibone leyonto eyenzakeleyo, iNkosi esazise yona.
Eia hoi kekahi, a hoi aku la na anela i ka lani, mai o lakou aku, olelo iho la ua mau kanaka kiai hipa la kekahi i kekahi, Ea, e haele kakou i Betelehema e'ike aku hoi ia mea a ka Haku i hoike mai nei ia kakou.
16 Basebesiza ngokuphangisa, bathola oMariya loJosefa, losane lulele emkolweni.
Haele wikiwiki lakou, a ike iho la ia Maria, a me Iosepa, a me ke keiki, e moe ana ia ma kahi hanai holoholona.
17 Sebebonile basebesazisa indawo ezizingelezeleyo ngelizwi ababelitshelwe mayelana lalo umntwana omncane.
A ike lakou, hoolaha aku la lakou i ka olelo i haiia mai ia lakou no ia keiki.
18 Labo bonke abakuzwayo bamangala ngezinto ezazikhulunywe ngabelusi kubo.
A o ka poe i lohe a pau, mahalo iho la lakou no na mea i haiia ku ia lakou e ka poe kahuhipa.
19 Kodwa uMariya walondoloza wonke la amazwi, enakana ngawo enhliziyweni yakhe.
Kaohi iho la o Maria ia mau mea a pau me ka hoomanao iho iloko o kona naau.
20 Basebebuyela abelusi, bemdumisa bembonga uNkulunkulu ngazo zonke izinto ababezizwile lababezibonile, njengalokho okwakukhulunywe kubo.
A hoi mai la na kahuhipa, me ka hoonani a me ka hoolea i ke Akua no ia mau mea a pau a lakou i lohe ai a i ike ai hoi, e like me ka mea i haiia mai ia lakou.
21 Kwathi seziphelile insuku eziyisificaminwembili zokuthi umntwana omncane asokwe, ibizo lakhe laselithiwa nguJesu, elalibizwe yingilosi engakomulwa esiswini.
A hala na la ewalu i okipoepoeia'i ua keiki la, kapaia kona inoa o IESU, o ka ka anela hoi i kapa ai mamua i kona hapaiia iloko o ka opu.
22 Kwathi seziphelele insuku zokuhlanjululwa kwakhe ngokomlayo kaMozisi, bamletha eJerusalema, ukuze bammise phambi kweNkosi
A pau na la o ko laua hoomaemae ana mamuli o ke kanawai o Mose, lawe ae la lakou ia keiki i Ierusalema e haawi ia ia i ka Haku:
23 (njengokulotshiweyo emlayweni weNkosi ukuthi konke okwesilisa okuvula isibeletho kuzathiwa kungcwele eNkosini)
(E like me ka mea i kakauia ma ke kanawai o ka Haku, o kela makahiapo kane, keia makahiapo kane, e iia'e he laa no Iehova; )
24 lokuthi banikele umhlatshelo njengokutshiwo emlayweni weNkosi, amajuba amabili kumbe amaphuphu amabili enkwilimba.
A e haawi hoi i ka mohai i kauohaia mai ma ke kanawai o Iehova, he mau kuhukuku elua, a i ole ia, elua manu nunu opiopio.
25 Njalo khangela, kwakukhona eJerusalema umuntu, obizo lakhe linguSimeyoni, njalo lumuntu wayelungile ekhuthele ekukhonzeni, elindele induduzo kaIsrayeli, loMoya oNgcwele wayephezu kwakhe.
Aia hoi, ma Ierusalema kekahi kanaka, o Simeona kona inoa; a he kanaka pono ia, he haipule, e kali ana i ka mea nana e kokua i ka Iseraela; aia maluna ona ka Uhane Hemolele.
26 Futhi kwakubonakalisiwe kuye nguMoya oyiNgcwele, ukuthi kayikubona ukufa engakamboni uKristu weNkosi.
A ua hoike e ia mai ia ia e ka Uhane Hemolele, aole ia e make e, a ike aku ia i ka Mesia a ka Haku.
27 Wasengena ethempelini ngoMoya; kwathi abazali bemletha umntwana omncane uJesu, ukuze benze ngaye ngokomkhuba womlayo,
A hele ae la hoi ia mamuli o ka Uhane iloko o ka luakini; a lawe ae la na makua i ke keiki ia Iesu iloko, e hana aku ai nona mamuli o ka oihana o ke kanawai;
28 yena wasemthatha wamphatha engalweni zakhe, wabonga uNkulunkulu, wathi:
Alaila lawe oia ia ia ma kona mau lima, a hoomaikai aku la i ke Akua, i aku la hoi,
29 Nkosi, khathesi iyekele inceku yakho ihambe ngokuthula, njengokwelizwi lakho;
Ano, e ka Haku, ke kuu nei oe i kau kauwa nei me ka pomaikai e like me kau olelo.
30 ngoba amehlo ami alubonile usindiso lwakho
No ka mea, ua ike iho nei ko'u mau maka i kau Hoola,
31 olulungisileyo phambi kobuso babantu bonke;
Ka mea au i hoomakaukau ai imua o ke alo o na kanaka a pau;
32 ukukhanya kokwembulela abezizwe, lenkazimulo yesizwe sakho uIsrayeli.
He malamalama e hoomalamalama ai i na lahuikanaka, a he nani no kou poe kanaka ka Iseraela.
33 UJosefa lonina basebemangala ngezinto ezatshiwo ngaye.
Mahalo iho la o Iosepa a me kona makuwahine ia mau mea i oleloia mai ai nona.
34 USimeyoni wasebabusisa, wathi kuMariya unina: Khangela, lo umiselwe ukuwa lokuvuka kwabanengi kuIsrayeli, lokuba yisibonakaliso esizaphikiswa;
A hoomaikai mai la o Simeona ia laua, i mai la hoi oia ia Maria i kona makuwahine, Eia hoi, ua hoonohonohoia mai oia nei i mea e haule ai, a e ala hou ai na mea he nui iwaena o ka Iseraela, a i hoailona hoi o hoinoia'i;
35 futhi lawe, inkemba izadabula owakho umphefumulo; ukuze imicabango yenhliziyo ezinengi yembulwe.
(A e houia no hoi kou uhane e ka pahikaua; ) i hoikeia'i na manao o na naau he lehulehu.
36 Njalo kwakukhona uAna umprofethikazi, indodakazi kaFanuweli, owesizwe sikaAsheri; wayesekhulile kakhulu, ebehlale lendoda iminyaka eyisikhombisa kusukela ebuntombini bakhe,
Malaila hoi kekahi kaula wahine, o Ana, ke kaikamahine a Panuela, na ka ohana a Asera; he kahiko no ia, a ehiku makahiki ona i noho pu ai me ke kane, mai kona wa puupaa mai.
37 njalo wayengumfelokazi owayengaba leminyaka engamatshumi ayisificaminwembili lane, engasuki ethempelini, ekhonza ngokuzila ukudla langemikhuleko ebusuku lemini.
A he wahine kanemake ia, he kanawalukumamaha makahiki ona, aole hoi ia i haalele i ka luakini, aka, ua malama mau oia i ke Akua me ka hoopololi a me ka pule, i ka po a me ke ao.
38 Laye efika ngalelohola wadumisa uNkulunkulu, wakhuluma ngaye kubo bonke ababelindele inkululeko eJerusalema.
A komo mai la oia ia manawa, hoomaikai aku la i ka Haku, a olelo mai la ia no ua keiki la i ka poe a pau e kali ana i ke ola ma Ierusalema.
39 Kwathi sebeqedile konke okungokomlayo weNkosi, babuyela eGalili, emzini wakibo iNazaretha.
A pau ae la i ka hanaia na mea i kauohaia ma ke kanawai o ka Haku, hoi ae la lakou i Galilaia, i ko lakou kulanakauhale i Nazareta.
40 Lomntwana omncane wakhula, waqina emoyeni, wagcwala inhlakanipho; lomusa kaNkulunkulu wawuphezu kwakhe.
A nui ae la ua keiki la, a ikaika ae la hoi kona manao, a piha i ka naauao, a maluna ona ke aloha o ke Akua.
41 Njalo abazali bakhe babesiya eJerusalema iminyaka yonke ngomkhosi wephasika.
Hele na makua ona i Ierusalema i kela makahiki i keia makahiki i ka ahaaina moliaola.
42 Kwathi eseleminyaka elitshumi lambili, sebenyukele eJerusalema njengomkhuba womkhosi,
A i ka umikumamalua o kona mau makahiki, pii ae la lakou i Ierusalema mamuli o ka oihana o ka ahaaina.
43 njalo sebeziqedile insuku, ekubuyeleni kwabo, umntwana uJesu wasala eJerusalema; njalo uJosefa lonina bengazi;
A pau ia mau la, hoi ae la laua, noho iho la ke keiki o Iesu, ma Ierusalema, aole hoi i ike o Iosepa a me kona makuwahine.
44 kodwa becabanga ukuthi wayesexukwini endleleni, bahamba uhambo losuku, bamdinga phakathi kwezinini labazana labo;
Manao no laua, aia no ia maloko o ka huakai, hele no laua i ko kekahi la hele ana; a imi iho la laua ia ia mawaena o na hoahanau a me ua hoalauna.
45 kodwa bengamtholi, babuyela eJerusalema, bemdinga.
Aole oia i loaa ia laua, hoi hou ae la laua i Ierusalema, e imi ana ia ia.
46 Kwasekusithi emva kwensuku ezintathu, bamthola ethempelini, ehlezi phakathi kwabafundisi, njalo ebalalela, futhi ebabuza.
Eia kekahi, a hala na la ekolu, ike aku la laua ia ia iloko o ka luakini e noho ana mawaena o ka poe kumu, e hoolohe ana ia lakou, a e ninau ana hoi ia lakou.
47 Njalo bonke ababemuzwa bamangala kakhulu ngolwazi lempendulo zakhe.
A o ka poe a pau i lohe ia ia, mahalo iho la i kona naauao a me kana olelo ana.
48 Kwathi bembona bamangala; lonina wathi kuye: Mntanami, wenzeleni okunje kithi? Khangela, uyihlo lami besikudinga sidubekile.
A ike laua ia ia, pihoihoi iho la; a i aku la kona makuwahine ia ia, E ka'u keiki, no ke aha la oe i hana mai ai pela ia maua? Ea, ua imi ae nei maua me kou makuakane ia oe, me ke kaumaha.
49 Wasesithi kubo: Kungani lingidinga? Belingakwazi yini ukuthi kumele ukuthi ngibe sezintweni zikaBaba?
I mai la kela ia laua, No ke aha la olua i imi mai nei ia'u? Aole anei olua i manao he pono nu'u e lilo ma ka ko'u Makua?
50 Kodwa bona kabaliqedisisanga ilizwi alikhuluma kubo.
Aole laua i ike i ke ano o kana mea i olelo mai ai ia laua.
51 Wasesehla labo, weza eNazaretha; wazehlisela ngaphansi kwabo. Unina wasegcina zonke lezizinto enhliziyweni yakhe.
A iho ae la ia me laua a hiki i Nazareta, a noho ia malalo iho o laua: a malama iho la kona makuwahine ia mau mea a pau ma kona naau.
52 UJesu waseqhubeka enhlakanipheni lekukhuleni, lekuthandekeni kuNkulunkulu lebantwini.
A nui ae la ka naauao, a me ke kino o Iesu, a me ke alohaia e ke Akua a me na kanaka.
