Read Luke 2
1 O SI ṣe li ọjọ wọnni, aṣẹ ti ọdọ Kesari Augustu jade wá pe, ki a kọ orukọ gbogbo aiye sinu iwe.
1 And it came to pass in those days, that there went out a decree from Caesar Augustus, that all the world should be taxed.
2 (Eyi ni ikọsinu-iwe ikini ti a ṣe nigbati Kireniu fi jẹ Bãlẹ Siria.)
2 (And this taxing was first made when Cyrenius was governor of Syria.)
3 Gbogbo awọn enia si lọ lati kọ orukọ rẹ̀ sinu iwe, olukuluku si ilu ara rẹ̀.
3 And all went to be taxed, every one into his own city.
4 Josefu pẹlu si goke lati Nasareti ilu Galili lọ, si ilu Dafidi ni Judea, ti a npè ni Betlehemu; nitoriti iran ati idile Dafidi ni iṣe,
4 And Joseph also went up from Galilee, out of the city of Nazareth, into Judaea, unto the city of David, which is called Bethlehem; (because he was of the house and lineage of David:)
5 Lati kọ orukọ rẹ̀, pẹlu Maria aya rẹ̀ afẹsọna, ti o tobi fun oyún.
5 To be taxed with Mary his espoused wife, being great with child.
6 O si ṣe, nigbati nwọn wà nibẹ̀, ọjọ rẹ̀ pé ti on o bí.
6 And so it was, that, while they were there, the days were accomplished that she should be delivered.
7 O si bí akọbi rẹ̀ ọmọkunrin, o si fi ọja wé e, o si tẹ́ ẹ sinu ibujẹ ẹran; nitoriti àye kò si fun wọn ninu ile èro.
7 And she brought forth her firstborn son, and wrapped him in swaddling clothes, and laid him in a manger; because there was no room for them in the inn.
8 Awọn oluṣọ-agutan mbẹ ni ilu na, nwọn nṣọ agbo agutan wọn li oru ni pápá ti nwọn ngbé.
8 And there were in the same country shepherds abiding in the field, keeping watch over their flock by night.
9 Sá si kiyesi i, angẹli Oluwa na yọ si wọn, ogo Oluwa si ràn yi wọn ká: ẹ̀ru si ba wọn gidigidi.
9 And, lo, the angel of the Lord came upon them, and the glory of the Lord shone round about them: and they were sore afraid.
10 Angẹli na si wi fun wọn pe, Má bẹ̀ru: sawò o, mo mu ihinrere ayọ̀ nla fun nyin wá, ti yio ṣe ti enia gbogbo.
10 And the angel said unto them, Fear not: for, behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy, which shall be to all people.
11 Nitori a bí Olugbala fun nyin loni ni ilu Dafidi, ti iṣe Kristi Oluwa.
11 For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Saviour, which is Christ the Lord.
12 Eyi ni yio si ṣe àmi fun nyin; ẹnyin ó ri ọmọ-ọwọ ti a fi ọja wé, o dubulẹ ni ibujẹ ẹran.
12 And this shall be a sign unto you; Ye shall find the babe wrapped in swaddling clothes, lying in a manger.
13 Ọpọlọpọ ogun ọrun si yọ si angẹli na li ojijì, nwọn nyìn Ọlọrun, wipe,
13 And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising God, and saying,
14 Ogo ni fun Ọlọrun loke ọrun, ati li aiye alafia, ifẹ inu rere si enia.
14 Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good will toward men.
15 O si ṣe, nigbati awọn angẹli na pada kuro lọdọ wọn lọ si ọrun, awọn ọkunrin oluṣọ-agutan na ba ara wọn sọ pe, Ẹ jẹ ki a lọ tàra si Betlehemu, ki a le ri ohun ti o ṣẹ, ti Oluwa fihàn fun wa.
15 And it came to pass, as the angels were gone away from them into heaven, the shepherds said one to another, Let us now go even unto Bethlehem, and see this thing which is come to pass, which the Lord hath made known unto us.
16 Nwọn si wá lọgan, nwọn si ri Maria, ati Josefu, ati ọmọ-ọwọ na, o dubulẹ ninu ibujẹ ẹran.
16 And they came with haste, and found Mary, and Joseph, and the babe lying in a manger.
17 Nigbati nwọn si ti ri i, nwọn sọ ohun ti a ti wi fun wọn nipa ti ọmọ yi.
17 And when they had seen it, they made known abroad the saying which was told them concerning this child.
18 Ẹnu si yà gbogbo awọn ti o gbọ́ si nkan wọnyi, ti a ti wi fun wọn lati ọdọ awọn oluṣọ-agutan wá.
18 And all they that heard it wondered at those things which were told them by the shepherds.
19 Ṣugbọn Maria pa gbogbo nkan wọnyi mọ́, o nrò wọn ninu ọkàn rẹ̀.
19 But Mary kept all these things, and pondered them in her heart.
20 Awọn oluṣọ-agutan si pada lọ, nwọn nfi ogo fun Ọlọrun, nwọn si nyìn i, nitori ohun gbogbo ti nwọn ti gbọ́ ati ti nwọn ti ri, bi a ti wi i fun wọn.
20 And the shepherds returned, glorifying and praising God for all the things that they had heard and seen, as it was told unto them.
21 Nigbati ijọ mẹjọ si pé lati kọ ọmọ na nila, nwọn pè orukọ rẹ̀ ni JESU, bi a ti sọ ọ tẹlẹ lati ọdọ angẹli na wá ki a to lóyun rẹ̀ ninu.
21 And when eight days were accomplished for the circumcising of the child, his name was called JESUS, which was so named of the angel before he was conceived in the womb.
22 Nigbati ọjọ iwẹnu Maria si pé gẹgẹ bi ofin Mose, nwọn gbé Jesu wá si Jerusalemu lati fi i fun Oluwa;
22 And when the days of her purification according to the law of Moses were accomplished, they brought him to Jerusalem, to present him to the Lord;
23 (Bi a ti kọ ọ sinu ofin Oluwa pe, Gbogbo ọmọ ọkunrin ti o ṣe akọbi, on li a o pè ni mimọ́ fun Oluwa;)
23 (As it is written in the law of the Lord, Every male that openeth the womb shall be called holy to the Lord;)
24 Ati lati rubọ gẹgẹ bi eyi ti a wi ninu ofin Oluwa, Àdaba meji, tabi ọmọ ẹiyẹle meji.
24 And to offer a sacrifice according to that which is said in the law of the Lord, A pair of turtledoves, or two young pigeons.
25 Si kiyesi i, ọkunrin kan wà ni Jerusalemu, orukọ rẹ̀ a ma jẹ Simeoni; ọkunrin na si ṣe olõtọ ati olufọkànsin, o nreti itunu Israeli: Ẹmí Mimọ́ si bà le e.
25 And, behold, there was a man in Jerusalem, whose name was Simeon; and the same man was just and devout, waiting for the consolation of Israel: and the Holy Ghost was upon him.
26 A si ti fihàn a lati ọdọ Ẹmí Mimọ́ na wá pe, on kì yio ri ikú, ki o to ri Kristi Oluwa.
26 And it was revealed unto him by the Holy Ghost, that he should not see death, before he had seen the Lord's Christ.
27 O si ti ipa Ẹmí wá sinu tẹmpili: nigbati awọn obi rẹ̀ si gbé ọmọ na Jesu wá, lati ṣe fun u bi iṣe ofin.
27 And he came by the Spirit into the temple: and when the parents brought in the child Jesus, to do for him after the custom of the law,
28 Nigbana li o gbé e li apa rẹ̀, o fi ibukun fun Ọlọrun, o ni,
28 Then took he him up in his arms, and blessed God, and said,
29 Oluwa, nigbayi li o to jọwọ ọmọ-ọdọ rẹ lọwọ lọ li alafia, gẹgẹ bi ọ̀rọ rẹ:
29 Lord, now lettest thou thy servant depart in peace, according to thy word:
30 Nitoriti oju mi ti ri igbala rẹ na,
30 For mine eyes have seen thy salvation,
31 Ti iwọ ti pèse silẹ niwaju enia gbogbo;
31 Which thou hast prepared before the face of all people;
32 Imọlẹ lati mọ́ si awọn Keferi, ati ogo Israeli enia rẹ.
32 A light to lighten the Gentiles, and the glory of thy people Israel.
33 Ẹnu si yà Josefu ati iya rẹ̀ si nkan ti a nsọ si i wọnyi.
33 And Joseph and his mother marvelled at those things which were spoken of him.
34 Simeoni si sure fun wọn, o si wi fun Maria iya rẹ̀ pe, Kiyesi i, a gbé ọmọ yi kalẹ fun iṣubu ati idide ọ̀pọ enia ni Israeli; ati fun àmi ti a nsọ̀rọ òdi si;
34 And Simeon blessed them, and said unto Mary his mother, Behold, this child is set for the fall and rising again of many in Israel; and for a sign which shall be spoken against;
35 (Idà yio si gún iwọ na li ọkàn pẹlu,) ki a le fi ironu ọ̀pọ ọkàn hàn.
35 (Yea, a sword shall pierce through thy own soul also,) that the thoughts of many hearts may be revealed.
36 Ẹnikan si mbẹ, Anna woli, ọmọbinrin Fanueli, li ẹ̀ya Aseri: ọjọ ogbó rẹ̀ pọ̀, o ti ba ọkọ gbé li ọdún meje lati igba wundia rẹ̀ wá;
36 And there was one Anna, a prophetess, the daughter of Phanuel, of the tribe of Aser: she was of a great age, and had lived with an husband seven years from her virginity;
37 O si ṣe opó ìwọn ọdún mẹrinlelọgọrin, ẹniti kò kuro ni tẹmpili, o si nfi àwẹ ati adura sìn Ọlọrun lọsán ati loru.
37 And she was a widow of about fourscore and four years, which departed not from the temple, but served God with fastings and prayers night and day.
38 O si wọle li akokò na, o si dupẹ fun Oluwa pẹlu, o si sọ̀rọ rẹ̀ fun gbogbo awọn ti o nreti idande Jerusalemu.
38 And she coming in that instant gave thanks likewise unto the Lord, and spake of him to all them that looked for redemption in Jerusalem.
39 Nigbati nwọn si ti ṣe nkan gbogbo tan gẹgẹ bi ofin Oluwa, nwọn pada lọ si Galili, si Nasareti ilu wọn.
39 And when they had performed all things according to the law of the Lord, they returned into Galilee, to their own city Nazareth.
40 Ọmọ na si ndàgba, o si nlagbara, o si kún fun ọgbọn: ore-ọfẹ Ọlọrun si mbẹ lara rẹ̀.
40 And the child grew, and waxed strong in spirit, filled with wisdom: and the grace of God was upon him.
41 Awọn õbi rẹ̀ a si mã lọ si Jerusalemu li ọdọdún si ajọ irekọja.
41 Now his parents went to Jerusalem every year at the feast of the passover.
42 Nigbati o si di ọmọ ọdún mejila, nwọn goke lọ si Jerusalemu gẹgẹ bi iṣe ajọ na.
42 And when he was twelve years old, they went up to Jerusalem after the custom of the feast.
43 Nigbati ọjọ wọn si pé bi nwọn ti npada bọ̀, ọmọ na Jesu duro lẹhin ni Jerusalemu; Josefu ati iya rẹ̀ kò mọ̀.
43 And when they had fulfilled the days, as they returned, the child Jesus tarried behind in Jerusalem; and Joseph and his mother knew not of it.
44 Ṣugbọn nwọn ṣebi o wà li ẹgbẹ èro, nwọn rìn ìrin ọjọ kan; nwọn wá a kiri ninu awọn ará ati awọn ojulumọ̀ wọn.
44 But they, supposing him to have been in the company, went a day's journey; and they sought him among their kinsfolk and acquaintance.
45 Nigbati nwọn kò si ri i, nwọn pada si Jerusalemu, nwọn nwá a kiri.
45 And when they found him not, they turned back again to Jerusalem, seeking him.
46 O si ṣe, lẹhin ijọ mẹta nwọn ri i ninu tẹmpili o joko li arin awọn olukọni, o ngbọ́ ti wọn, o si mbi wọn lẽre.
46 And it came to pass, that after three days they found him in the temple, sitting in the midst of the doctors, both hearing them, and asking them questions.
47 Ẹnu si yà gbogbo awọn ti o gbọ́ ọ̀rọ rẹ̀ fun oyé ati idahùn rẹ̀.
47 And all that heard him were astonished at his understanding and answers.
48 Nigbati nwọn si ri i, hà ṣe wọn: iya rẹ̀ si bi i pe, Ọmọ, ẽṣe ti iwọ fi ṣe wa bẹ̃? sawò o, baba rẹ ati emi ti nfi ibinujẹ wá ọ kiri.
48 And when they saw him, they were amazed: and his mother said unto him, Son, why hast thou thus dealt with us? behold, thy father and I have sought thee sorrowing.
49 O si dahùn wi fun wọn pe, Ẽṣe ti ẹnyin fi nwá mi kiri? ẹnyin kò mọ pe, emi kò le ṣàima wà nibi iṣẹ Baba mi?
49 And he said unto them, How is it that ye sought me? wist ye not that I must be about my Father's business?
50 Ọrọ ti o sọ kò si yé wọn.
50 And they understood not the saying which he spake unto them.
51 O si ba wọn sọkalẹ lọ si Nasareti, o si fi ara balẹ fun wọn: ṣugbọn iya rẹ̀ pa gbogbo nkan wọnyi mọ́ ninu ọkàn rẹ̀.
51 And he went down with them, and came to Nazareth, and was subject unto them: but his mother kept all these sayings in her heart.
52 Jesu si npọ̀ li ọgbọ́n, o si ndàgba, o si wà li ojurere li ọdọ Ọlọrun ati enia.
52 And Jesus increased in wisdom and stature, and in favour with God and man.
