5 T here was in the days of Herod, the king of Judea, a certain priest, by name Zacharias, of the course of Abijah, and his wife of the daughters of Aaron, and her name Elisabeth;

Wakhtigii Herodos ahaa boqorkii Yahuudiya, waxaa jiray wadaad la odhan jiray Sakariyas, oo ka mid ahaa safkii Abiya; haweenaydiisuna waxay ka mid ahayd hablihii reer Haaruun, magaceedana waxaa la odhan jiray Elisabed.

6 a nd they were both righteous before God, going on in all the commands and righteousnesses of the Lord blameless,

Labadooduba xaq bay ku ahaayeen Ilaah hortiisa, oo qaynuunnadii iyo xukummadii Rabbiga ayay eedla'aan ku socon jireen.

7 a nd they had no child, because that Elisabeth was barren, and both were advanced in their days.

Ilmo ma ay lahayn, waayo, Elisabed madhalays bay ahayd, oo labadooduba way da'weynaayeen.

8 A nd it came to pass, in his acting as priest, in the order of his course before God,

Waxaa dhacay, intuu shuqulkii wadaadnimadii safkiisa dartiis samaynayay Ilaah hortiisa,

9 a ccording to the custom of the priesthood, his lot was to make perfume, having gone into the sanctuary of the Lord,

sida caadadii wadaadnimadu u ahayd, in shuqulkiisu ahaa inuu foox shido goortuu macbudka Rabbiga galay.

10 a nd all the multitude of the people were praying without, at the hour of the perfume.

Saacaddii fooxa ayaa dadkii badnaa oo dhammu dibadda ku tukanayeen.

11 A nd there appeared to him a messenger of the Lord standing on the right side of the altar of the perfume,

Markaasaa waxaa isaga u soo muuqatay malaa'igtii Rabbiga oo taagnayd meeshii fooxa lagu shido midigteeda.

12 a nd Zacharias, having seen, was troubled, and fear fell on him;

Goortuu Sakariyas arkay ayuu naxay, wuuna cabsaday.

13 a nd the messenger said unto him, `Fear not, Zacharias, for thy supplication was heard, and thy wife Elisabeth shall bear a son to thee, and thou shalt call his name John,

Laakiin malaa'igtii baa ku tidhi, Ha baqin, Sakariyasow, waayo, baryadaadii waa la maqlay; afadaada Elisabedna wiil bay kuu dhali doontaa, magiciisana waxaad u bixin doontaa Yooxanaa.

14 a nd there shall be joy to thee, and gladness, and many at his birth shall joy,

Waxaad heli doontaa farxad iyo rayrayn; dad badanna dhalashadiisa ayay ku farxi doonaan,

15 f or he shall be great before the Lord, and wine and strong drink he may not drink, and of the Holy Spirit he shall be full, even from his mother's womb;

waayo, Rabbiga hortiisa nin weyn buu ku ahaan doonaa, mana cabbi doono khamri ama wax lagu sakhraamo. Waxaana xataa uurka hooyadiis kaga buuxsami doona Ruuxa Quduuskaa.

16 a nd many of the sons of Israel he shall turn to the Lord their God,

Reer binu Israa'iil badidoodana ayuu Rabbiga Ilaahooda ah ku soo jeedin doonaa.

17 a nd he shall go before Him, in the spirit and power of Elijah, to turn hearts of fathers unto children, and disobedient ones to the wisdom of righteous ones, to make ready for the Lord, a people prepared.'

Isaguna wuxuu ku hor mari doonaa ruuxii iyo xooggii Eliyaas inuu aabbayaasha qalbiyadooda ku soo jeediyo carruurta, iyo inuu caasiyiinta ku soo celiyo xigmadda kuwa xaqa ah, inuu Rabbiga u diyaargareeyo dad hagaagsan.

18 A nd Zacharias said unto the messenger, `Whereby shall I know this? for I am aged, and my wife is advanced in her days?'

Sakariyas wuxuu malaa'igtii ku yidhi, Sidee baan waxan u garan doonaa? Waayo, anigu oday baan ahay, afadayduna waa da'weynaatay.

19 A nd the messenger answering said to him, `I am Gabriel, who have been standing near before God, and I was sent to speak unto thee, and to proclaim these good news to thee,

Malaa'igtii baa u jawaabtay oo ku tidhi, Anigu waxaan ahay Jibriil oo Ilaah hortiisa istaaga. Waxaa la ii soo diray inaan kula hadlo oo aan warkan wanaagsan kuu keeno.

20 a nd lo, thou shalt be silent, and not able to speak, till the day that these things shall come to pass, because thou didst not believe my words, that shall be fulfilled in their season.'

Bal eeg, waad aamusnaan doontaa, mana hadli kari doonto, ilaa maalinta waxyaalahan dhici doonaan, waayo, waad rumaysan weyday hadalladayda wakhtigooda la oofin doono.

21 A nd the people were waiting for Zacharias, and wondering at his tarrying in the sanctuary,

Dadkuna waxay sugayeen Sakariyas, oo waxay la yaabeen siduu macbudka ugu raagay.

22 a nd having come out, he was not able to speak to them, and they perceived that a vision he had seen in the sanctuary, and he was beckoning to them, and did remain dumb.

Markuu soo baxay ayuu la hadli kari waayay, markaasay garteen inuu macbudka wax ku arkay. Kolkaasuu gacanta ugu sii tilmaamayay iyaga, isagoo sii carrab la'.

23 A nd it came to pass, when the days of his service were fulfilled, he went away to his house,

Kolkii maalmihii shuqulkiisii wadaadnimadu dhammaadeen ayuu wuxuu tegey gurigiisii.

24 a nd after those days, his wife Elisabeth conceived, and hid herself five months, saying --

Maalmahaas dabadeed afadiisa Elisabed ayaa uuraysatay, oo shan bilood ayay isqarisay iyadoo leh.

25 ` Thus hath the Lord done to me, in days in which He looked upon, to take away my reproach among men.'

Sidaasaa Rabbigu iigu sameeyey maalmihii uu i eegay inuu ceebtayda dadka dhexdooda iiga qaado. Dhalashada Ciise Masiix Waa La Sii Sheegay

26 A nd in the sixth month was the messenger Gabriel sent by God, to a city of Galilee, the name of which Nazareth,

Bishii lixaad Ilaah baa malaa'ig Jibriil u soo diray magaalada Galili oo Naasared la odhan jiray

27 t o a virgin, betrothed to a man, whose name Joseph, of the house of David, and the name of the virgin Mary.

ilaa gabadh bikrad ah oo u doonanayd nin la odhan jiray Yuusuf oo dhashii Daa'uud ahaa; gabadhana waxaa la odhan jiray Maryan.

28 A nd the messenger having come in unto her, said, `Hail, favoured one, the Lord with thee; blessed thou among women;'

Malaa'igtii baa u soo gashay, oo waxay ku tidhi, Nabad, adigoo nimcaysan, Rabbiga ayaa kula jira.

29 a nd she, having seen, was troubled at his word, and was reasoning of what kind this salutation may be.

Markaasay hadalkii ka naxday, oo waxay isku tidhi, Maxay tahay salaantan?

30 A nd the messenger said to her, `Fear not, Mary, for thou hast found favour with God;

Malaa'igtii baa ku tidhi, Ha baqin, Maryamay, waayo, nimco ayaad Ilaah ka heshay.

31 a nd lo, thou shalt conceive in the womb, and shalt bring forth a son, and call his name Jesus;

Bal eeg, waad uuraysan doontaa, oo wiil baad umuli doontaa, magiciisana waxaad u bixin doontaa Ciise.

32 h e shall be great, and Son of the Highest he shall be called, and the Lord God shall give him the throne of David his father,

Nin weyn buu ahaan doonaa, waxaana loogu yeedhi doonaa Wiilka Kan ugu sarreeya, Rabbiga Ilaaha ahuna wuxuu siin doonaa carshigii awowgiis Daa'uud.

33 a nd he shall reign over the house of Jacob to the ages; and of his reign there shall be no end.'

Weligiiba wuxuu boqor u ahaan doonaa dadkii Yacquub, boqornimadiisuna ma idlaan doonto.

34 A nd Mary said unto the messenger, `How shall this be, seeing a husband I do not know?'

Kolkaasaa Maryan waxay malaa'igtii ku tidhi, Sidee baa waxanu ku noqon doonaan? Anigu ninna garan maayo.

35 A nd the messenger answering said to her, `The Holy Spirit shall come upon thee, and the power of the Highest shall overshadow thee, therefore also the holy-begotten thing shall be called Son of God;

Malaa'igtii waa u jawaabtay oo ku tidhi, Ruuxa Quduuska ah ayaa kugu soo degi doona, oo xooggii Kan ugu sarreeya ayaa hoosiis kuu noqon doona, sidaa darteed kan quduuska ah oo kaa dhalan doona waxaa loogu yeedhi doonaa Wiilka Ilaah.

36 a nd lo, Elisabeth, thy kinswoman, she also hath conceived a son in her old age, and this is the sixth month to her who was called barren;

Bal eeg, ina-adeertaa Elisabedna wiil bay uuraysatay iyadoo da'weyn; oo tanuna waxay tii madhalays loogu yeedhi jiray u tahay bisheedii lixaad.

37 b ecause nothing shall be impossible with God.'

Waayo, wax aan Ilaah kari doonin ma jiro.

38 A nd Mary said, `Lo, the maid-servant of the Lord; let it be to me according to thy saying,' and the messenger went away from her.

Maryan ayaa tidhi, Waa i kan, waxaan ahay addoontii Rabbiga. Sidaad u hadashay ha ii noqoto. Markaasaa malaa'igtii ka tagtay. Maryan Waxay Booqatay Elisabed; Gabaygii Maryan Ee Ammaanta Ahaa

39 A nd Mary having arisen in those days, went to the hill-country, with haste, to a city of Judea,

Maalmahaas Maryan baa kacday, oo waxay dhaqso u tagtay dhulkii buuraha lahaa ilaa magaalo ka mid ah reer Yahuudah,

40 a nd entered into the house of Zacharias, and saluted Elisabeth.

oo waxay gashay gurigii Sakariyas, oo salaantay Elisabed.

41 A nd it came to pass, when Elisabeth heard the salutation of Mary, the babe did leap in her womb; and Elisabeth was filled with the Holy Spirit,

Oo waxaa dhacay goortii Elisabed salaantii Maryan maqashay in ilmihii uurkeeda ku boodbooday; Elisabedna waxaa ka buuxsamay Ruuxa Quduuska ah.

42 a nd spake out with a loud voice, and said, `Blessed thou among women, and blessed the fruit of thy womb;

Markaasay cod dheer ku qaylisay oo tidhi, Dumarka dhexdooda waad ku barakaysan tahay, oo midhaha uurkaaga waa barakaysan yahay.

43 a nd whence this to me, that the mother of my Lord might come unto me?

Xaggee waxanu iiga yimaadeen in Sayidkayga hooyadiis iigu timaado?

44 f or, lo, when the voice of thy salutation came to my ears, leap in gladness did the babe in my womb;

Bal eeg, markii codkii salaantaadu dhegahayga ku dhacay, ilmaha uurkayga ku jira ayaa farxad la boodbooday.

45 a nd happy she who did believe, for there shall be a completion to the things spoken to her from the Lord.'

Waxaa barakaysan tii rumaysatay; waayo, waxyaalihii xagga Rabbiga looga sheegay ayay dhici doonaan.

46 A nd Mary said, `My soul doth magnify the Lord,

Maryanna waxay tidhi, Naftaydu Rabbigay weynaynaysaa,

47 A nd my spirit was glad on God my Saviour,

Ruuxayguna wuxuu ku reyreeyey Ilaaha Badbaadiyahayga ah.

48 B ecause He looked on the lowliness of His maid-servant, For, lo, henceforth call me happy shall all the generations,

Waayo, wuxuu eegay hoosaysnimada addoontiisa, Bal eeg, tan iyo hadhow qarniyada oo dhammu waxay iigu yeedhi doonaan tan barakaysan.

49 F or He who is mighty did to me great things, And holy His name,

Waayo, kan xoogga leh ayaa waxyaalo waaweyn ii sameeyey; Magiciisuna waa Quduus,

50 A nd His kindness to generations of generations, To those fearing Him,

Tan iyo ab ka ab naxariistiisu waxay gaadhaa Kuwa isaga ka cabsada.

51 H e did powerfully with His arm, He scattered abroad the proud in the thought of their heart,

Wuxuu xoog ku sameeyey gacantiisa, Oo kuwii fikirradii qalbigoodii ku kibray ayuu kala firdhiyey.

52 H e brought down the mighty from thrones, And He exalted the lowly,

Kuwii xoogga lahaa ayuu carshiyadoodii ka soo dejiyey Oo kuwii hooseeyey ayuu sarraysiiyey.

53 T he hungry He did fill with good, And the rich He sent away empty,

Kuwii gaajaysnaa ayuu wax wanaagsan ka dhergiyey, Kuwii hodanka ahaana iyagoo madhan ayuu diray.

54 H e received again Israel His servant, To remember kindness,

Midiidinkiisii Israa'iil ayuu caawiyey Inuu xusuusto inuu u naxariisto

55 A s He spake unto our fathers, To Abraham and to his seed -- to the age.'

Ibraahim iyo farcankiisii weligoodba (Siduu awowayaasheennii ula hadlay).

56 A nd Mary remained with her about three months, and turned back to her house.

Maryan waxay iyada la joogtay abbaaraha saddex bilood, markaasay gurigeeda ku noqotay. Dhalashadii Yooxanaa Baabtiisaha; Aabbihiis Gabaygiisii Ammaanta Ahaa

57 A nd to Elisabeth was the time fulfilled for her bringing forth, and she bare a son,

Hadda Elisabed wakhtigii ay umuli lahayd ayaa la joogay, oo wiil bay dhashay.

58 a nd the neighbours and her kindred heard that the Lord was making His kindness great with her, and they were rejoicing with her.

Derisyadeedii iyo xigaalkeedii ayay maqleen siduu Rabbigu naxariistiisii ugu weyneeyey iyada, wayna la farxeen.

59 A nd it came to pass, on the eighth day, they came to circumcise the child, and they were calling him by the name of his father, Zacharias,

Waxaa dhacay inay maalintii siddeedaad u yimaadeen inay wiilkii gudaan, oo waxayna u bixiyeen magicii aabbihiis Sakariyas.

60 a nd his mother answering said, `No, but he shall be called John.'

Kolkaasaa hooyadiis u jawaabtay oo ku tidhi, Sidaas ma aha; waxaase loogu yeedhi doonaa Yooxanaa.

61 A nd they said unto her -- `There is none among thy kindred who is called by this name,'

Waxay ku yidhaahdeen, Xigaalkaaga kuma jiro qof magacaas loo bixiyey.

62 a nd they were making signs to his father, what he would wish him to be called,

Waxay aabbihiis gacan ugu tilmaameen oo weyddiiyeen wuxuu doonayay in loogu yeedho.

63 a nd having asked for a tablet, he wrote, saying, `John is his name;' and they did all wonder;

Markaasuu wuxuu weyddiistay loox oo ku qoray, isagoo leh, Magiciisu waa Yooxanaa. Wayna wada yaabeen.

64 a nd his mouth was opened presently, and his tongue, and he was speaking, praising God.

Kolkiiba afkiisii ayaa furmay, oo carrabkiisiina waa debcay, markaasuu hadlay oo Ilaah ammaanay.

65 A nd fear came upon all those dwelling around them, and in all the hill-country of Judea were all these sayings spoken of,

Dadkii agtooda joogay oo dhammu way wada cabsadeen, oo hadalladan oo dhan waa lagaga hadlayay dalkii buuraha lahaa oo Yahuudiya oo dhan.

66 a nd all who heard did lay them up in their hearts, saying, `What then shall this child be?' and the hand of the Lord was with him.

Kuwa waxyaalahaas maqlay oo dhan ayaa qalbigooda geliyey oo waxay yidhaahdeen, Haddaba ilmahanu muxuu noqon doonaa? Waayo, gacantii Rabbiga ayaa la jirtay isaga.

67 A nd Zacharias his father was filled with the Holy Spirit, and did prophesy, saying,

Markaasaa aabbihiis Sakariyas waxaa ka buuxsamay Ruuxa Quduuska ah, waxna wuu sii sheegay isagoo leh,

68 ` Blessed the Lord, the God of Israel, Because He did look upon, And wrought redemption for His people,

Ha ammaanmo Rabbiga ah Ilaaha Israa'iil, Waayo, dadkiisii ayuu soo booqday oo furtay.

69 A nd did raise an horn of salvation to us, In the house of David His servant,

Oo ahaa dhaartii uu awoweheennii Ibraahim ugu dhaartay,

77 T o give knowledge of salvation to His people In remission of their sins,

Oo aad dadkiisa ogeysiisid badbaadada Ee dembidhaafkooda ah,

Ee laga hela naxariista weyn ee Ilaaheenna, Tan qorraxda soo baxda xagga sare inaga soo booqan doonta,

79 T o give light to those sitting in darkness and death-shade, To guide our feet to a way of peace.'

Inay iftiimiso kuwa fadhiya gudcurka iyo hooskii dhimashada, Iyo inay cagaheenna jidkii nabadda ku kaxayso,
