Meriam Mir Gospels
1Now in those days, a decree went out from Caesar Augustus that all the world should be enrolled.
1Abele kerker ge Kaisara Augusto mer tigri, kega, Detaruem gesepem uridili.
2This was the first enrollment made when Quirinius was governor of Syria.
2Abele kerker ditimedare abele jauali Kurenio sirdamu Suria ge.
3All went to enroll themselves, everyone to his own city.
3Ui ge uridili bakeauare ga detarare, taba gedlam.
4Joseph also went up from Galilee, out of the city of Nazareth, into Judea, to David’s city, which is called Bethlehem, because he was of the house and family of David,
4Ege Iosefa ge tabakeamulu Galilaia, Nazareta uteblam, Iudaiaim Dauida ra uteb, nei atker Bethelema, abelelam Dauida ra boai abara kus;
5to enroll himself with Mary, who was pledged to be married to him as wife, being pregnant.
5Detalei okakis Maria taba kosker ei, E dikiapor abi kem ko eskemer.
6While they were there, the day had come for her to give birth.
6Ui ge emrilei, abele kerker ge abi esmelu.
7She gave birth to her firstborn son. She wrapped him in bands of cloth and laid him in a feeding trough, because there was no room for them in the inn.
7Ege abara kimiar uerem esmelu; E sursur derap, egaredlu kau meta ge irdilu, abelelam uiaba meta mitkar nolea abkoreb emeri okakis.
8There were shepherds in the same country staying in the field, and keeping watch by night over their flock.
8Abele ged ge daralei sumez ge mamoe asesered, ui ki ge daralei mamoe asesered.
9Behold, an angel of the Lord stood by them, and the glory of the Lord shone around them, and they were terrified.
9Dasmer, Iehoua ra angela ege ekue ireder, au zoromzorom deraueirer Iehoua ra zorom: uiaba geum barkei.
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.
10Ege angela de uiabi daratagerare, Uaba nole geum kak; abelelam dasmerare, kaka tais peka uabim debe mer, obaker gaire le uridili au sererserer ober:
11For there is born to you today, in David’s city, a Savior, who is Christ the Lord.
11Abelelam ge abele gerger ge eosmelu, Dauida uteb ge, Iesu Keriso, uaba Azigmoareta.
12This is the sign to you: you will find a baby wrapped in strips of cloth, lying in a feeding trough.”
12Abele atamelam; Uaba erdar sursur uerem eid kau ra meta ge.
13Suddenly, there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly army praising God and saying,
13Ege dumdumge angela de okakis gaire urker ge kotor ge, epe uiaba desperare Iehoua, kega,
14“Glory to God in the highest, on earth peace, good will toward men.”
14Ua ge desperare Ade ra kotor lu, uerkab ge gesepem, au omare le uridili.
15When the angels went away from them into the sky, the shepherds said to one another, “Let’s go to Bethlehem, now, and see this thing that has happened, which the Lord has made known to us.”
15Ege angela giz bakeauare kotorem, ui ge mamoe giz naseseredlare a mer nakesmurare, kega, Debele mi nabakeauare Bethelemaem, ko dasmerare abele lu Iehoua de meribi uadetametare.
16They came with haste and found both Mary and Joseph, and the baby was lying in the feeding trough.
16Ui ge dudum bakeauare, ege Maria uiaba nardardare, a Iosefa, a sursur uerem kau meta ge iperedare.
17When they saw it, they publicized widely the saying which was spoken to them about this child.
17Ege uiaba erdali, epe uiaba etomeret abele mer uiaba emetu asoli abele ueremlam.
18All who heard it wondered at the things which were spoken to them by the shepherds.
18Epe uiaba uridili emetu asoli abele mer; epe uiaba au damreda abele lu mamoe asesered le etomeret uiabim.
19But Mary kept all these sayings, pondering them in her heart.
19Ege Maria de erpei gaire mer uridili, abara nerkep dikiapor.
20The shepherds returned, glorifying and praising God for all the things that they had heard and seen, just as it was told them.
20Ege mamoe asesered le takomed, uiaba despereda pako esoao Adim, abelelam gaire lu uridili uiaba emetu asoli, pako dasmer etomeret uiabim.
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.
21Ege abara kerker tabarki, eit gerger abele uerem peritom, epe uiaba abi nei atker Iesu , angela kekiam nei detker, abara apu nolea kem kak.
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
22Ege eseamulu uiaba gerger ogdirup abi, mokakalam Mose ra gelar giz, epe uiaba tais abim Ierusalemaem, irdilei Iehoua ra opem,
23(as it is written in the law of the Lord, “Every male who opens the womb shall be called holy to the Lord”),
23(Mokakalam detarer Iehoua ra gelar giz, kega, Ese kimiar uerem narbet uridili zogo Iehouaim,)
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.”
24Ese ikuar abele baokeilu, mokakalam etomeret Iehoua ra gelar giz, kega, Neis luk, ua nako neis kebi dibadib.
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.
25Ege dasmer, nerute le emeri Ierusalema ge, nei Simeona; abara tonar barkak E au geum Adim, epe abim naokaili upinati Isaraela; ege Lamar Zogo abi tumge.
26It had been revealed to him by the Holy Spirit that he should not see death before he had seen the Lord’s Christ.
26Ege abi natomelu Lamar Zogo, nolea eumida, kekiam erdali Iehoua ra Keriso.
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,
27Ege E bakeamulu zogo meta Lamar Zogolam; abele uerem Iesu abara aba a apu uiaba abi tegaret, uiaba ikeli abkoreb mokakalam gelar giz,
28then he received him into his arms and blessed God, and said,
28Epe abi tegaret abele uerem abara tag, ege esoao Adim, kega,
29“Now you are releasing your servant, Master, according to your word, in peace;
29Iehoua ae, debele ma ikuar mara memeg le uerkab bakeamulu, mokakalam mara mer;
30for my eyes have seen your salvation,
30Abelelam kara pone emetu dasmer abele mara azigmoaret,
31which you have prepared before the face of all peoples;
31Ege ma derser opem gaire ged uridili;
32a light for revelation to the nations, and the glory of your people Israel.”
32Abele datki erperida gaire zuber ged, pako zoromzorom mara ged Isaraela.
33Joseph and his mother were marveling at the things which were spoken concerning him.
33Ege Iosefa pako abara apu uiaba damered gaire lu etomeret abim.
34Simeon blessed them, and said to Mary, his mother, “Behold, this child is appointed for the falling and the rising of many in Israel, and for a sign which is spoken against.
34Ege Simeona E uerkab uiabim, ege abi detager Maria abara apu, kega Dasmer, abele uerem iridi uader ekesmeri a ko ekuei gaire le lakub Isaraela; abele atamelam uiaba abi dedkoli;
35Yes, a sword will pierce through your own soul, that the thoughts of many hearts may be revealed.”
35Ege ekos dikedilu mara nerkep teibur aosos tulik; ueakai paret kak dikiapor nerkep gaire le.
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,
36Nerute perofeta kosker dauere, abara nei Ana, Fanuelu ra neur, Asera ra nosik; ege emetu aule, E ge taba kimiar okakis daralei abele kerker ge E neur dauer, ege sefen abara urut tabarki.
37and she had been a widow for about eighty-four years), who didn’t depart from the temple, worshiping with fastings and petitions night and day.
37Abele kosker zogo meta ge emeri, nako eiti foa abara urut, nole akaeret kak abele zogo metalam, E Ade ra memeg le, pako leuer baili, a esorerapare gerger ge a ki ge.
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.
38Abele kerker ge, E bakeamulu esoao Adim, E abi detagerare uiabim gaire le giz naokaili Ierusalema ra azigmoaret.
39When they had accomplished all things that were according to the law of the Lord, they returned into Galilee, to their own city, Nazareth.
39Ege ui ge eseamulei gaire lu ikeli abkoreb Iehoua ra gelar giz, epe ui ge akomelei Galilaiaem, uiaba uteb Nazareta.
40The child was growing, and was becoming strong in spirit, being filled with wisdom, and the grace of God was upon him.
40Ege abele uerem ge batai, abara nerkep au saserim, no au pardar dauer: Ada ra omare abi tum ge.
41His parents went every year to Jerusalem at the feast of the Passover.
41Ege abara aba a apu ui bakeamulei Ierusalemaem, nerute urut a nerute urut netpur paseka ge.
42When he was twelve years old, they went up to Jerusalem according to the custom of the feast;
42Ege abara urut tuelf tabarki, epe uiaba bakeauare Ierusalemaem, mokakalam tonar uetpur.
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,
43Ege abara gerger desmulu, epe uiaba akomeda, abele uerem Iesu emeri Ierusalema ge; ege Iosefa pako abara apu uiaba nolea umer kak.
44but supposing him to be in the company, they went a day’s journey; and they looked for him among their relatives and acquaintances.
44Ui ge dikiapore abele uerem uiabi okakis, ege uiaba ki gab ge asameilu; ui ge abi ge deraimerare taba boai giz pako uader umele abim.
45When they didn’t find him, they returned to Jerusalem, looking for him.
45Ui ge nole abi ardar kak, a ui gako akomelei Ierusalemaem, abi deraimerei.
46After three days they found him in the temple, sitting in the middle of the teachers, both listening to them and asking them questions.
46Ege thri gerger barkare, ui ge abi erdali zogo meta ge, ege emeri muige ereuerem ge, E lagelage asoli, a gako uiabi nautumerare ereuerem tonarem.
47All who heard him were amazed at his understanding and his answers.
47Ege uiaba asolare abim au pardar mer detaut, uiaba au damerare.
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.”
48Ege ui ge au kase damerei emetu abi erdarei; ege abi apuet detaut, kega, Kara uerem ma nalu pem a keribim? Dasmer, kaka pako mara aba ki au asi ki darasardei mari naraimerei.
49He said to them, “Why were you looking for me? Didn’t you know that I must be in my Father’s house?”
49Epe tabara mer uiabi daratager, kega, Nalugem naba kari naraimereie? Uaba nole umer kak, abkoreb kaka emeri kara Aba ra meta ge idali?
50They didn’t understand the saying which he spoke to them.
50A ui ge nole abi mer asor kak nakueiredar.
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.
51Ege ui ge okakis bakeauare Nazareta tabarki; a uiaba memeg: ege apu ge gaire lu giz nerkep derpeilare.
52And Jesus increased in wisdom and stature, and in favor with God and men.
52Ege pardar ge omeilu a gako Iesu ra gem, ege Ade au omare abi gako le uridili.
