And ther were in the same region shepherdes abydinge in the felde and watching their flocke by nyght.
9 Umalaika wa GOSI abhafumiye, nanali uzelu wa GOSI wabhakhozizye epande zyonti, bhinjilwa nowoga ogosi.

12 Na ene ndiyo ndago hwilimwe, mbhahu mwaje umwa umwela bhavwenesyezye amenda ageshiwela agonile mwitori mwelela eng'ombe.
And take this for a signe: ye hall fynde ye chylde swadled and layed in a mager.
13 Nantele bhahali pandwemo nayo omalaika abhinji ajeshi abhamwanya bhahutelela ONGOLOBHE, na ya je,
And streight waye ther was with the angell a multitude of hevenly sowdiers laudynge God and sayinge:
