¹Wakhtigaas waxaa dhacay in amar ka soo baxay Kaysar Awgustus in dadka dunida jooga oo dhan la qoro.

¹Now it happened in those days, that a decree went out from Caesar Augustus that all the world should be enrolled.

²Qorniinkaas kolkii ugu horreeyey waxaa la sameeyey markii Kuranayos xukumi jiray Suuriya.

²This was the first enrollment made when Quirinius was governor of Syria.

³Dhammaan waxay u wada tageen in la qoro, mid kastaba magaaladiisii.

³All went to enroll themselves, everyone to his own city.

⁴Yuusufna Galili ayuu ka kacay, oo magaaladii Naasared ka tegey, oo wuxuu aaday Yahuudiya ilaa magaaladii Daa'uud oo Beytlaxam la odhan jiray, maxaa yeelay, wuxuu ahaa dadkii iyo dhashii Daa'uud,

⁴Joseph also went up from Galilee, out of the city of Nazareth, into Judea, to the city of David, which is called Bethlehem, because he was of the house and family of David;

⁵in lala qoro Maryan oo ahayd tii u doonanayd oo uurka lahayd.

⁵to enroll himself with Mary, who was pledged to be married to him as wife, being pregnant.

⁶Waxaa dhacay kolkay halkaas joogeen in maalmihii ay umuli lahayd dhammaadeen,

⁶It happened, while they were there, that the day had come that she should give birth.

⁷waxayna umushay wiilkeedii curadka ahaa, markaasay maro ku duudduubtay oo qabaal ku jiifisay, waayo, meel ay ku hoydaan ayay hudheelkii ka waayeen.

⁷She brought forth her firstborn son, and she wrapped him in bands of cloth, and laid him in a feeding trough, because there was no room for them in the inn.

⁸Dalkaas waxaa jiray adhijirro bannaanka jooga oo habeenkii idahooda ilaalinaya.

⁸There were shepherds in the same country staying in the field, and keeping watch by night over their flock.

⁹Malaa'igtii Rabbiga ayaa ag istaagtay, oo ammaanta Rabbiga ayaa iftiimisay hareerahooda, aad bayna u baqeen.

⁹Behold, an angel of the Lord stood by them, and the glory of the Lord shone around them, and they were terrified.

¹⁰Markaasaa malaa'igtii ku tidhi, Ha baqina, waayo, ogaada, waxaan idiin keenay war wanaagsan oo leh farxad weyn oo u ahaan dadka oo dhan.

¹⁰The angel said to them, “Don’t be afraid, for behold, I bring you good news of great joy which will be to all the people.

¹¹Waayo, maanta waxaa magaalada Daa'uud idiinku dhashay Badbaadiye oo ah Masiixa Rabbiga ah.

¹¹For there is born to you, this day, in the city of David, a Savior, who is Christ the Lord.

¹²Oo waxaa calaamo idiin ahaan tan, waxaad heli doontaan ilmo maro ku duudduuban oo ku jiifa qabaal.

¹²This is the sign to you: you will find a baby wrapped in strips of cloth, lying in a feeding trough.”

¹³Dhaqsoba waxaa malaa'igtii la jirtay guuto fara badan oo jannada ka timid, wayna ammaanayeen Ilaah oo lahaayeen,

¹³Suddenly, there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly army praising God, and saying,

¹⁴Ilaah ha ku ammaanmo meelaha ugu sarreeya, Xagga dhulkana nabad ha ahaato dadka ka farxiya Ilaah dhexdooda.

¹⁴“Glory to God in the highest, on earth peace, good will toward men.”

¹⁵Waxaa dhacay markii malaa'igihii ka tageen oo jannada ku noqdeen in adhijirradii isku yidhaahdeen, Haddana aan tagno xataa ilaa Beytlaxam, aan aragnee waxaas dhacay oo Rabbiga ina ogeysiiyey.

¹⁵It happened, when the angels went away from them into the sky, that the shepherds said one to another, “Let’s go to Bethlehem, now, and see this thing that has happened, which the Lord has made known to us.”

¹⁶Markaasay dhaqso u yimaadeen oo waxay heleen Maryan iyo Yuusufba iyo ilmihii oo qabaal ku jiifa.

¹⁶They came with haste, and found both Mary and Joseph, and the baby was lying in the feeding trough.

¹⁷Oo goortay arkeen, waxay ogeysiiyeen hadalka ilmahan looga sheegay iyaga.

¹⁷When they saw it, they publicized widely the saying which was spoken to them about this child.

¹⁸Dadkii maqlay oo dhanna ayaa ka yaabay waxyaalihii adhijirradu u sheegeen.

¹⁸All who heard it wondered at the things which were spoken to them by the shepherds.

¹⁹Maryanse hadalkaas oo dhan ayay haysatay oo qalbigeeda kaga fikirtay.

¹⁹But Mary kept all these sayings, pondering them in her heart.

²⁰Adhijirraduna way noqdeen iyagoo Ilaah ku ammaanaya oo ku weynaynaya waxyaalihii ay maqleen oo ay arkeen oo dhan, sidii iyaga loogu sheegay.

²⁰The shepherds returned, glorifying and praising God for all the things that they had heard and seen, just as it was told them.

²¹Goortii siddeed maalmood dhammaatay oo wiilkii la gudi lahaa, magiciisii waxaa loo baxshay Ciise, sida malaa'igtii ugu bixisay intaan uurka lagu uuraysan.

²¹When eight days were fulfilled for the circumcision of the child, his name was called Jesus, which was given by the angel before he was conceived in the womb.

²²Kolkii maalmihii nadiifiskeeda u dhammaadeen sidii sharciga Muuse lahaa, waxay geeyeen Yeruusaalem inay Rabbiga u dhiibaan

²²When the days of their purification according to the law of Moses were fulfilled, they brought him up to Jerusalem, to present him to the Lord

²³(siday ugu qoran tahay sharciga Rabbiga, Curad walba oo lab ah waxaa loogu yeedhi doonaa quduus xagga Rabbiga),

²³(as it is written in the law of the Lord, “Every male who opens the womb shall be called holy to the Lord”), Exodus 13:2,12

²⁴iyo inay allabari u bixiyaan siday ugu qoran tahay sharciga Rabbiga, Laba qoolley ama laba xamaam oo yaryar.

²⁴and to offer a sacrifice according to that which is said in the law of the Lord, “A pair of turtledoves, or two young pigeons.” Leviticus 12:8

²⁵Bal eeg, waxaa Yeruusaalem joogay nin magiciisii ahaa Simecoon. Ninkaasu wuxuu ahaa nin xaq ah oo cibaado leh; wuxuuna sugayay gargaaridda Israa'iil. Ruuxii Quduuska ahaana waa dul joogay.

²⁵Behold, there was a man in Jerusalem whose name was Simeon. This man was righteous and devout, looking for the consolation of Israel, and the Holy Spirit was on him.

²⁶Waxaana Ruuxii Quduuska ahaa u muujiyey inaanu dhimasho arag intaanu Rabbiga Masiixiisa arkin.

²⁶It had been revealed to him by the Holy Spirit that he should not see death before he had seen the Lord’s Christ. “Christ” (Greek) and “Messiah” (Hebrew) both mean “Anointed One”

²⁷Oo wuxuu Ruuxii ku galay macbudka, oo goortii waalidkii keeneen wiilkii Ciise ahaa inay caadadii sharciga ku sameeyaan,

²⁷He came in the Spirit into the temple. When the parents brought in the child, Jesus, that they might do concerning him according to the custom of the law,

²⁸markaasuu gacmihiisa ku qaaday, oo Ilaah ammaanay, oo yidhi,

²⁸then he received him into his arms, and blessed God, and said,

²⁹Rabbiyow, imminka addoonkaagu nabad ha ku tago, Sida hadalkaagu ahaa,

²⁹“Now you are releasing your servant, Master, according to your word, in peace;

³⁰Waayo, indhahaygu waxay arkeen badbaadintaada,

³¹Tan aad dadka oo dhan hortiis hagaajisay,

³²Oo ah iftiin quruumaha lagu muujiyo, Iyo ammaanta dadkaaga Israa'iil.

³²a light for revelation to the nations, and the glory of your people Israel.”

³³Markaasaa aabbihiis iyo hooyadiis ka yaabeen waxyaalihii lagaga hadlay isaga.

³³Joseph and his mother were marveling at the things which were spoken concerning him,

³⁴Simecoon ayaa iyaga u duceeyey, wuxuuna hooyadiis Maryan ku yidhi, Ogow, wiilkan waxaa loo dhigay dhicidda iyo kicidda kuwa badan oo Israa'iil ku jira, iyo calaamo ka gees ahaan lagaga hadlo,

³⁴and Simeon blessed them, and said to Mary, his mother, “Behold, this child is set for the falling and the rising of many in Israel, and for a sign which is spoken against.

³⁵si ay qalbiyo badan fikirradoodu u muuqan doonaan. Adigana seef baa naftaada ka mudhbixi doonta.

³⁵Yes, a sword will pierce through your own soul, that the thoughts of many hearts may be revealed.”

³⁶Waxaa jirtay nebiyad Anna la odhan jiray, ina Fanuu'eel, oo ahayd qoladii Aasheer, wayna da'weynayd; nin bayna la jirtay toddoba sannadood bikradnimadeeda dabadeed.

³⁶There was one Anna, a prophetess, the daughter of Phanuel, of the tribe of Asher (she was of a great age, having lived with a husband seven years from her virginity,

³⁷Waxayna ahayd carmal xataa afar iyo siddeetan sannadood, macbudkana kama ay tegin, laakiin Ilaah ayay soon iyo salaad habeen iyo maalinba ku caabudaysay.

³⁷and she had been a widow for about eighty-four years), who didn’t depart from the temple, worshipping with fastings and petitions night and day.

³⁸Saacaddaas qudheeda ayay soo gashay oo Ilaah u mahad naqday, oo kuwa furashada Yeruusaalem sugayay oo dhan ayay xaggiisa kala hadashay.

³⁸Coming up at that very hour, she gave thanks to the Lord, and spoke of him to all those who were looking for redemption in Jerusalem.

³⁹Goortay wax walba dhammeeyeen sida sharciga Rabbigu leeyahay, waxay ku noqdeen Galili ilaa magaaladoodii Naasared.

³⁹When they had accomplished all things that were according to the law of the Lord, they returned into Galilee, to their own city, Nazareth.

⁴⁰Wiilkii ayaa koray oo itaal weynaaday, waxaana ka buuxsantay xigmad; Ilaah nimcadiisuna way dul joogtay.

⁴⁰The child was growing, and was becoming strong in spirit, being filled with wisdom, and the grace of God was upon him.

⁴¹Sannad walba waalidkiisii waxay Yeruusaalem u tegi jireen Iiddii Kormaridda.

⁴¹His parents went every year to Jerusalem at the feast of the Passover.

⁴²Goortuu laba iyo toban sannadood jiray ayay aadeen sidii caadadii iiddu u ahayd.

⁴²When he was twelve years old, they went up to Jerusalem according to the custom of the feast,

⁴³Oo goortay maalmihii dhammaysteen, oo ay noqonayeen, ayaa Ciise wiilkii ahaa ku hadhay Yeruusaalem, waalidkiisuna ma ogayn,

⁴³and when they had fulfilled the days, as they were returning, the boy Jesus stayed behind in Jerusalem. Joseph and his mother didn’t know it,

⁴⁴laakiin iyagoo u malaynaya inuu dadka la socdo, ayay maalin sii socdeen, markaasay ka dhex doondooneen xigaalkooda iyo kuway isbarteen.

⁴⁴but supposing him to be in the company, they went a day’s journey, and they looked for him among their relatives and acquaintances.

⁴⁵Oo markay heli waayeen ayay Yeruusaalem ku noqdeen oo ka doondooneen.

⁴⁵When they didn’t find him, they returned to Jerusalem, looking for him.

⁴⁶Waxaa noqotay, saddex maalmood dabadeed, inay macbudka ka heleen isagoo macallimiinta dhex fadhiya oo dhegaysanaya oo wax weyddiinaya.

⁴⁶It happened after three days they found him in the temple, sitting in the midst of the teachers, both listening to them, and asking them questions.

⁴⁷Dadkii maqlay oo dhan ayaa la yaabay garashadiisii iyo jawaabihiisii.

⁴⁷All who heard him were amazed at his understanding and his answers.

⁴⁸Goortay arkeen isagii way la yaabeen, oo hooyadiis ayaa ku tidhi, Wiilkaygiiyow, maxaad sidaas noo yeeshay? Bal eeg, aniga iyo aabbahaa caloolxumo waannu kugu doondoonnay.

⁴⁸When they saw him, they were astonished, and his mother said to him, “Son, why have you treated us this way? Behold, your father and I were anxiously looking for you.”

⁴⁹Markaasuu wuxuu ku yidhi, Maxaad ii doondoonayseen? Miyaanad ogayn inay igu waajib tahay inaan danta Aabbahay ku jeedo?

⁴⁹He said to them, “Why were you looking for me? Didn’t you know that I must be in my Father’s house?”

⁵⁰Laakiin way garan waayeen hadalkii uu kula hadlay.

⁵⁰They didn’t understand the saying which he spoke to them.

⁵¹Kolkaasuu raacay oo Naasared tegey, wuuna ka dambeeyey iyaga; laakiinse hooyadiis hadalkaas oo dhan qalbigeeda ayay ku haysatay.Ciisena wuxuu ku koray xigmad iyo dherer iyo nimco, Ilaah iyo dadka hortooda.

⁵¹And he went down with them, and came to Nazareth. He was subject to them, and his mother kept all these sayings in her heart.

⁵²Ciisena wuxuu ku koray xigmad iyo dherer iyo nimco, Ilaah iyo dadka hortooda.

⁵²And Jesus increased in wisdom and stature, and in favor with God and men.
