2 ILOULB Dagiti nakasaksi manipud idi damo ken nagbalin nga ad-adipen ti sao, ket inpakaammoda kadatayo. BSB BSB: just as they were handed down to us by the initial eyewitnesses and servants of the word.
3 ILOULB Ngarud, nakitak nga nasayaatsa met kaniak, kalpasan nga inad-adalko nga naimbag manipud idi rugrugina, nga ilanadko a para kenka nga naurnos, patpatgek unay a Teopilo. BSB BSB: Therefore, having carefully investigated everything from the beginning, it seemed good also to me to write an orderly account for you, most excellent Theophilus,
4 ILOULB Kayatko nga mammoam ti kinasigurado dagiti banbanag nga naisuro kenka. BSB BSB: so that you may know the certainty of the things you have been taught.
6 ILOULB Dagitoy nga dua ket nalinteg iti sangoanan ti Dios, magmagnada iti amin nga bilbilin ken ordinansa iti Apo nga awan pakababalawanda. BSB BSB: Both of them were righteous in the sight of God, walking blamelessly in all the commandments and decrees of the Lord.
7 ILOULB Ngem awan nga pulos ti anakda, gapu ta ni Elisabet ket baog, ken agpadpadada nga nataengan unayen. BSB BSB: But they had no children, because Elizabeth was barren, and they were both well along in years.
8 ILOULB Maysa nga aldaw idi madama nga ar-aramiden ni Zacarias iti pagrebbenganna iti Dios a kas padi a naituding iti bunggoyda, BSB BSB: One day while Zechariah’s division was on duty and he was serving as priest before God,
9 ILOULB sinurot dagiti papadi iti gagangay nga ar-aramidenda, ket napili ngarud isuna babaen iti panagbibinnunotda tapno sumrek iti templo ti Apo a mangpuor ti insenso. BSB BSB: he was chosen by lot, according to the custom of the priesthood, to enter the temple of the Lord and burn incense.
10 ILOULB Dagiti amin nga tattao a naummong ket agkarkararag iti ruar idi tiempo nga mapuoran ti insenso. BSB BSB: And at the hour of the incense offering, the whole congregation was praying outside.
11 ILOULB Nagparang iti maysa nga anghel iti Dios kenkuana, sitatakder iti makanawan nga paset iti altar ti insenso. BSB BSB: Just then an angel of the Lord appeared to Zechariah, standing at the right side of the altar of incense.
12 ILOULB Nariribukan ni Zacarias iti pannakakitana iti anghel, ket nakaru ti butengna. BSB BSB: When Zechariah saw him, he was startled and gripped with fear.
13 ILOULB Ngem kinuna ti anghel kenkuana, “dika nga agbuteng Zacarias gapu ta nadenggeg ti kararagmo.” Ti asawam a ni Elisabet, ipasyangannakanto iti maysa a lalaki, ken panaganamto isuna iti Juan. BSB BSB: But the angel said to him, “Do not be afraid, Zechariah, because your prayer has been heard. Your wife Elizabeth will bear you a son, and you are to give him the name John.
14 ILOULB Kastanto unay iti rag-om ken ragsakmo gapu kenkuana, ken adu a tao iti maragsakan iti pannaka-ipasngayna. BSB BSB: He will be a joy and delight to you, and many will rejoice at his birth,
15 ILOULB Ta agbalin nga natan-ok isuna iti imatang ti Apo, ket dinto uminom iti arak wenno aniaman nga inumen a naingel. Mapnonto isuna iti Espiritu Santo, uray kabayatan ti kaaddana iti aanakan ti inana. BSB BSB: for he will be great in the sight of the Lord. He shall never take wine or strong drink, and he will be filled with the Holy Spirit even from his mother’s womb.
16 ILOULB Isuna ti mangpasubli kadagiti adu nga annak a lallaki iti Israel, iti Apo a Diosda. BSB BSB: Many of the sons of Israel he will turn back to the Lord their God.
18 ILOULB Kinuna ni Zacarias iti anghel, “Kasano nga maammoak nga daytoy ket mapasamak? Ta lakayakun, ken ti asawak ket baketen.” BSB BSB: “How can I be sure of this?” Zechariah asked the angel. “I am an old man, and my wife is well along in years.”
19 ILOULB Simmungbat ti anghel kenkuana, “Siak ni Gabriel. Agtaktakderak iti presensia ti Dios, ken naibaunak a makisao kenka ken mangted kenka iti daytoy nga naimbag a damag. BSB BSB: “I am Gabriel,” replied the angel. “I stand in the presence of God, and I have been sent to speak to you and to bring you this good news.
20 ILOULB Kitaem, agulimekkanto ken dikanto nga makasao agingga iti aldaw nga dagitoy a banbanag ket mapasamak, agsipud ta dika namati iti sasaok, nga maipatungpalto iti umno nga tiempo.” BSB BSB: And now you will be silent and unable to speak until the day this comes to pass, because you did not believe my words, which will be fulfilled at their proper time.”
21 ILOULB Kabayatanna, agur-uray dagiti tattao ken ni Zacarias ket panpanunotenda nu apay nga nabayag unay isuna idiay templo. BSB BSB: Meanwhile, the people were waiting for Zechariah and wondering why he took so long in the temple.
22 ILOULB Idi rimmuar isuna, saanen nga makasarita kadakuada, ket naamirisda nga nakaimatang isuna iti sirmata idiay templo. Nagsinsinyas isuna kadakuada, ngem nagtalinaed nga saan nga makasao. BSB BSB: When he came out and was unable to speak to them, they realized he had seen a vision in the temple. He kept making signs to them but remained unable to speak.
23 ILOULB Idi natungpalen ti tiempo nga panagserbina, nagsubli isuna idiay balayna. BSB BSB: And when the days of his service were complete, he returned home.
24 ILOULB Kalpasan dagitoy nga al-aldaw, nagsikog ti asawana a ni Elisabet. Naglimmeng isuna iti lima nga bulan, a kunana, BSB BSB: After these days, his wife Elizabeth became pregnant and for five months remained in seclusion. She declared,
25 ILOULB “Daytoy ti inaramid ti Apo para kaniak. Tinarabaynak, tapno ikkatenna iti pannaikaibabainko kadagiti tattao.” BSB BSB: “The Lord has done this for me. In these days He has shown me favor and taken away my disgrace among the people.”
27 ILOULB iti maysa a birhen a naitulag iti lalaki a managan Jose. Isuna ket kaputotan ni David, ken iti nagan ti birhen ket Maria. BSB BSB: to a virgin pledged in marriage to a man named Joseph, who was of the house of David. And the virgin’s name was Mary.
28 ILOULB Immay ti anghel kenkuana, ken kinunana, “Kablaaw, kenka a kagagasatan! Ti Dios adda kenka!” BSB BSB: The angel appeared to her and said, “Greetings, you who are highly favored! The Lord is with you.”
29 ILOULB Ngem kasta unay a nariribukan isuna gapu iti sasao iti anghel, ket pinannunotna no ania a kita iti kablaaw daytoy. BSB BSB: Mary was greatly troubled at his words and wondered what kind of greeting this might be.
30 ILOULB Kinuna ti anghel kenkuana, “Dika nga agbuteng, Maria, ta naay-ayo kenka iti Dios. BSB BSB: So the angel told her, “Do not be afraid, Mary, for you have found favor with God.
31 ILOULB Kitaem, agsikogkanto ket agipasngayka iti maysa a lalaki, ken awagam isuna ti Hesus. BSB BSB: Behold, you will conceive and give birth to a son, and you are to give Him the name Jesus.
32 ILOULB Agbalinto nga naindaklan isuna, ken maawaganto iti Anak ti Kangatoan. Itedto ni Apo Dios kenkuana iti trono ni tatangna a David. BSB BSB: He will be great and will be called the Son of the Most High. The Lord God will give Him the throne of His father David,
33 ILOULB Agnanayonto nga agturay kadagiti kaputotan ni Jacob, ken awanto ti pagpatinggaan ti pagarianna.” BSB BSB: and He will reign over the house of Jacob forever. His kingdom will never end!”
35 ILOULB Insungbat ti anghel kenkuana, “Umayto kenka ti Espiritu Santo ken salinongannakanto ti pannakabalin iti Kangatoan. Ngarud, ti nasantoan nga maipasngayto ket maawaganto nga Anak ti Dios. BSB BSB: The angel replied, “The Holy Spirit will come upon you, and the power of the Most High will overshadow you. So the Holy One to be born will be called the Son of God.
36 ILOULB Kitaem, ti kabagiam a ni Elisabet ket nagsikog met iti maysa a lalaki iti kinabaketna; isuna ket adda iti maikainnem nga bulan ti panagsikogna, nupay isuna ket naawagan a baog. BSB BSB: Look, even Elizabeth your relative has conceived a son in her old age, and she who was called barren is in her sixth month.
37 ILOULB Agsipud ta awan iti saan a kabaelan ti Dios!” BSB BSB: For no word from God will ever fail.”
39 ILOULB Ita, kadagidi nga al-aldaw, timmakder ni Maria ken nagapura nga napan idiay turturod nga paset ti siudad iti Judea, ket idiay, BSB BSB: In those days Mary got ready and hurried to a town in the hill country of Judah,
40 ILOULB napan iti balay ni Zacarias ket kinablaawanna ni Elisabet. BSB BSB: where she entered the home of Zechariah and greeted Elizabeth.
41 ILOULB Idi nangngeg ni Elisabet ti kablaaw ni Maria, limmagto ti ubbing iti tianna; ket ni Elisabet, napno ti Espiritu Santo. BSB BSB: When Elizabeth heard Mary’s greeting, the baby leaped in her womb, and Elizabeth was filled with the Holy Spirit.
42 ILOULB Inngatona ti timekna nga adda papukkawna, ket kinunana, “Sika ti nabendisionan kadagiti babbai, ken nabendisionan iti bunga ti aanakam. BSB BSB: In a loud voice she exclaimed, “Blessed are you among women, and blessed is the fruit of your womb!
43 ILOULB Kasano nga iti ina ti Apok ket umay kaniak? BSB BSB: And why am I so honored, that the mother of my Lord should come to me?
44 ILOULB Ta idi nangngegko ti kablaawmo, ti ubing iti aanakak ket limmagto gapu iti ragsakna. BSB BSB: For as soon as the sound of your greeting reached my ears, the baby in my womb leaped for joy.
45 ILOULB Isuna nga namati ket nabendisionan, agsipud ta dagiti banbanag nga naibaga kenkuana manipud iti Apo ket mautngpalto.” BSB BSB: Blessed is she who has believed that the Lord’s word to her will be fulfilled.”
47 ILOULB ken agragrag-o ti espirituk iti Dios nga Mangisalakanko. BSB BSB: and my spirit rejoices in God my Savior!
49 ILOULB Agsipud ta iti Mannakabalin ket nagaramid iti nakakaskasdaaw a banbanag kaniak; Ken ti naganna ket nasantoan. BSB BSB: For the Mighty One has done great things for me. Holy is His name.
50 ILOULB Iti asina ket para kadagiti amin nga henerasion ti tattao nga agbuteng kenkuana. BSB BSB: His mercy extends to those who fear Him, from generation to generation.
51 ILOULB Nangaramid isuna kadagiti agkakabileg nga banbanag babaen iti imana; inwarawarana dagiti natangsit iti pusoda. BSB BSB: He has performed mighty deeds with His arm; He has scattered those who are proud in the thoughts of their hearts.
52 ILOULB Ingguyodna nga pababa dagiti mangiturturay manipud kadagiti tronoda, ken intag-ayna dagiti nabababa nga tattao. BSB BSB: He has brought down rulers from their thrones, but has exalted the humble.
53 ILOULB Inikkanna iti naimbag nga banbanag dagiti mabisin nga tattao, ken pinapanawna dagiti babaknang a tattao nga awanan iti uray aniaman a banag. BSB BSB: He has filled the hungry with good things, but has sent the rich away empty.
54 ILOULB Tinulunganna iti Israel nga adipenna, tapno kaasianna BSB BSB: He has helped His servant Israel, remembering to be merciful,
55 ILOULB ni Abraham ken dagiti kaputotanna iti agnanayon, a kas inkarina kadagiti kapuonantayo nga aramidenna. BSB BSB: as He promised to our fathers, to Abraham and his descendants forever.”
56 ILOULB Nakipagnaed ni Maria ken ni Elisabet iti agarup tallo nga bulan, sa nagawid iti balayna. BSB BSB: Mary stayed with Elizabeth for about three months and then returned home.
57 ILOULB Ita, idi dimteng iti tiempo nga panangipasngay ni Elisabet iti anakna, nagpasngay isuna iti anak a lalaki. BSB BSB: When the time came for Elizabeth to have her child, she gave birth to a son.
58 ILOULB Nangngegan dagiti karrubana ken kakabagianna nga iti Dios ket naasi unay kenkuana, ket nakipagragsakda kenkuana. BSB BSB: Her neighbors and relatives heard that the Lord had shown her great mercy, and they rejoiced with her.
59 ILOULB Ket iti maikawalo nga aldaw kalpasan dayta, immayda nga mangkugit iti maladaga; ken awaganda koma isuna iti Zacarias, nga isurotda iti nagan ni tatangna. BSB BSB: On the eighth day, when they came to circumcise the child, they were going to name him after his father Zechariah.
60 ILOULB Ngem simmungbat ni inangna a kinunana, “Saan, ngem ketdi maawagan isuna iti Juan.” BSB BSB: But his mother replied, “No! He shall be called John.”
61 ILOULB Kinunada kenkuana, “Awan kadagiti kakabagiam iti naawagan iti kastoy a nagan.” BSB BSB: They said to her, “There is no one among your relatives who bears this name.”
62 ILOULB Sininyasanda ti amana tapno ammoenda no ania ti kayatna nga iyawagda iti ubing. BSB BSB: So they made signs to his father to find out what he wanted to name the child.
63 ILOULB Isu nga dimmawat iti pagsuratan ken insuratna ditoy, “Ti naganna ket Juan.” Aminda ket nasdaaw unay. BSB BSB: Zechariah asked for a tablet and wrote, “His name is John.” And they were all amazed.
64 ILOULB Dagdagus nga nalukatan iti ngiwatna ken nawayawayaan ti dilana, ken nangrugi nga nagsao, nga agdaydayaw iti Dios. BSB BSB: Immediately Zechariah’s mouth was opened and his tongue was released, and he began to speak, praising God.
65 ILOULB Ket buteng iti immay kadagiti amin nga agnanaed iti aglawlawda ken amin nga napasamak ket pagsasaritaan dagiti tattao iti amin nga lugar iti turturod nga pagilian ti Judea. BSB BSB: All their neighbors were filled with awe, and people throughout the hill country of Judea were talking about these events.
66 ILOULB Amin dagiti nakangngeg iti daytoy ket pinanpanunotda ti maipanggep iti napasamak ken kinunada, “Ita ngarud, anianto ngata iti pagbalinan daytoy nga ubing? Ta naamirisda nga ti ima iti Apo ket adda kenkuana. BSB BSB: And all who heard this wondered in their hearts and asked, “What then will this child become?” For the Lord’s hand was with him.
67 ILOULB Ti amana nga ni Zacarias ket napno iti Espiritu Santo, ket insaona daytoy nga padto, BSB BSB: Then his father Zechariah was filled with the Holy Spirit and prophesied:
68 ILOULB “Madaydayaw ti Apo, nga Dios ti Israel, gapu ta immay isuna kadatayo ken nagaramid iti wagas tapno wayawayaanna dagiti tattaona.” BSB BSB: “Blessed be the Lord, the God of Israel, because He has visited and redeemed His people.
69 ILOULB Nangisabet isuna para kadatayo iti mannakabalin nga Mannangisalakan manipud iti kaputotan ti adipenna a ni David, BSB BSB: He has raised up a horn of salvation for us in the house of His servant David,
70 ILOULB a kas inbaga ti Dios babaen kadagiti nasantoan a propetana idi. BSB BSB: as He spoke through His holy prophets, those of ages past,
71 ILOULB Inkarina nga isabetna ti pannakaisalakantayo manipud kadagiti kabusortayo, ken manipud iti ima dagiti amin nga gumurgura kadatayo. BSB BSB: salvation from our enemies and from the hand of all who hate us,
72 ILOULB Inaramidna daytoy tapno ipakitana ti asina kadagiti kapuonantayo, ken tapno lagipenna iti nasantoan nga tulagna. BSB BSB: to show mercy to our fathers and to remember His holy covenant,
73 ILOULB Dayta a tulag ket isu ti sapata nga inbagana ken ni Abraham nga kapuonantayo. BSB BSB: the oath He swore to our father Abraham, to grant us
74 ILOULB Nangaramid isuna iti sapata tapno waya-wayaannatayo manipud iti ima dagiti kabusortayo ken ikkannatayo iti pannakabael nga agserbi kenkuana nga awan ti panagbuteng, BSB BSB: deliverance from hostile hands, that we may serve Him without fear,
75 ILOULB ken iti kinasanto ken kinalinteg iti sangwananna iti amin nga aldawtayo. BSB BSB: in holiness and righteousness before Him all the days of our lives.
76 ILOULB Ken sika, anakko, ket maawaganto nga propeta ti Kangatoan, gapu ta unaam ti Apo tapno isaganam dagiti tattao para iti iyaayna, BSB BSB: And you, child, will be called a prophet of the Most High; for you will go on before the Lord to prepare the way for Him,
77 ILOULB ken tapno tulungam dagiti tattao nga mangammo no kasanoda nga maisalakan babaen iti pannakapakawan dagiti basbasolda. BSB BSB: to give to His people the knowledge of salvation through the forgiveness of their sins,
78 ILOULB Pakawanennatayo iti Diostayo gapu iti nalukneng nga asina. Babaen iti daytoy nga asi, ti Mannangisalakan, nga maiyarig iti singising ti init iti agsapa, ket umay manipud langit nga tumulong kadatayo. BSB BSB: because of the tender mercy of our God, by which the Dawn will visit us from on high,
79 ILOULB Lawaganna dagiti tattao nga agtugtugaw iti kinasipnget ken iti aniniwan ti patay; idalanna dagiti saksakatayo iti dalan ti kapia.” BSB BSB: to shine on those who live in darkness and in the shadow of death, to guide our feet into the path of peace.”
80 ILOULB Dimmakkel ngarud ti ubing, ken nagbalin nga napigsa iti espiritu. Nagnaed isuna kadagiti let-ang a luglugar agginga a nangrugi nga nagparang a nalatak kadagiti tattao iti Israel. BSB BSB: And the child grew and became strong in spirit; and he lived in the wilderness until the time of his public appearance to Israel.
