11 Ingilosi yeNkosi yasibonakala kuye, imi ngakwesokunene selathi lempepha.
unyaMhola ghwa Mutwa akamwumila na kukwiima ulubale lwa luvoko lwa ndia kufitekelelo kuno vinyanyila uvusumba.
12 Kwathi uZakariya eyibona waqhuqha, lokwesaba kwawela phezu kwakhe.
uSakalia akoghopa ye alwaghile ulutetemo lulyamughwila.
13 Kodwa ingilosi yathi kuye: Ungesabi Zakariya; ngoba umkhuleko wakho uzwakele, lomkakho uElizabethi uzakuzalela indodana, njalo uzakuthi ibizo layo nguJohane.

18 UZakariya wasesithi kuyo ingilosi: Ngizakwazi ngani lokhu? Ngoba mina ngilixhegu, lomkami useleminyaka eminengi.
uSakalia akam'bula unyaMhola, “niwesia ndani kukagula ili? ulwakuva une nili nsehe nu n'dala ghwango na maka ghake ghali minga kyongo”.
19 Ingilosi yasiphendula yathi kuye: NginguGabriyeli mina, omayo phambi kukaNkulunkulu; njalo ngithunyiwe ukukhuluma lawe, lokukubikela lezizindaba ezinhle.

36 Njalo khangela, isinini sakho uElizabethi, laye ukhulelwe yindodana ebudaleni bakhe; lale yinyanga yesithupha kuye obekuthiwa uyinyumba.
lolagha ulukololuo uElisabeti alinuukunue vwa mwana mufighono fyake fya vughogholo, ughu ghwe mwesi ghwa n'tanda juno valyatile mughumba.
37 Ngoba kuNkulunkulu kakulalutho oluzakwehlula.

38 UMariya wasesithi: Khangela, incekukazi yeNkosi; kakube kimi njengelizwi lakho. Ingilosi yasisuka kuye.
uMaliya akajova akati, une nilim'baanda ghwa Mutwa neke luuleke luve luve kulyune ndavule ujovile” pe pano unyaMhola akavuka iluta.
39 Ngalezonsuku uMariya wasesukuma waya ezintabeni ngokuphangisa, emzini weJuda,
ye fikikile ifighono nde filingi uMaliya avuka ng'haning'habi na kuluta ku iisi jimonga jino jale nyafidunda, ija Yudea.
40 wangena endlini kaZakariya, wabingelela uElizabethi.

neke afunyilue umukijuva jula juno alyitike kuuti vulyahumila uvya kyang'haani vwa sino alyavulilue kuhuma kwa Mutwa”.
46 UMariya wasesithi: Umphefumulo wami uyayikhulisa iNkosi,
uMaliya akati, inimbula jango jikunfunya uMutwa,
47 lomoya wami uyathokoza kuNkulunkulu uMsindisi wami,
naghumwojo ghwango ghuvovwike mwa Nguluve umpoki ghwango.
48 ngoba ukhangele ubuphansi bencekukazi yakhe. Ngoba khangela, kusukela khathesi zonke izizukulwana zizakuthi ngibusisiwe.

(ndavule alyajovile kuvanhaata vitu) kwa Abulahamu ni fisina fyake kuvusila na kusila” (aiōn g165)
56 UMariya wasehlala laye okungaba zinyanga ezintathu, wasebuyela endlini yakhe.
uMalia alikalile nu Elisabeti hwene mesi ghatatu pepano akagomoka ku nyumba ja mwene.
57 Isikhathi sikaElizabethi sokuthi abelethe sesiphelele, wasebeletha indodana.
lino unsiki ghulyafikile ughwa Elisabeti kupaapa umwana un'dimi.
58 Abakhelene laye lezinini zakhe basebesizwa ukuthi iNkosi yenze isihawu sayo saba sikhulu kuye, basebethokoza laye.
avabading'ani vake na vanyalukolo vake valyapulike ndavule uMutwa atupelanisie mu vuhugu vwake, kange vakahovoka palikimo nu mwene.
59 Kwasekusithi ngosuku lwesificaminwembili, beza ukuzasoka usane; balubiza ngebizo likayise ngokuthi nguZakariya.
lino kilyahumile ikighono kya lekela kwoni valisile kukivungo najumwana lulyanoghile vampele ilitavua lyake ghwe Sakalia kulwiho lwa vise.
60 Kodwa unina waphendula wathi: Hatshi bo, kodwa luzathiwa nguJohane.
looli ung'ina akamula akati, “ndali” ikemelua ghwe Yohani”
61 Basebesithi kuye: Kakho ezihlotsheni zakho obizwa ngalelibizo.

uvise akalonda ikisegho akalemba “ilitavua ghwe Yohani” voni vakadegha ku ili
64 Njalo wahle wavulwa umlomo wakhe lolimi lwakhe lwatshwaphululwa, wasekhuluma edumisa uNkulunkulu.
ku kenyemukila umulomo ghake ghukadinduka nu lumili lwake lukava vuleka akajova na kukumughinia uNguluve
65 Lokwesaba kwehlela phezu kwabo bonke abakhelene labo; njalo kwakhulunywa ngazo zonke lezizinto kulo lonke elezintabeni zeJudiya,

66 labo bonke abazizwayo bazilondoloza ezinhliziyweni zabo, besithi: Kambe lolusane luzakuba njani? Njalo isandla seNkosi sasilalo.
na voni vano valyaghapulike vakaghagadilila mu mwoojo ghave, vakati umwana uju ghwa ndani ndani?” ulwakuva uluvoko lwa Mutwa lulyale palikimo naghwo.
67 LoZakariya uyise wagcwaliswa ngoMoya oNgcwele, waprofetha, esithi:
ivise ghwa Sakalia akapeluula ingufu nu Mhepo uMwimike akatengula kuhumia uvuvili akatisagha,
