Boncho Tewofloosa, nu giddon poletidabas daroti, bantaw danda7etida mela xaafidosona. 
He taarikiya enti xaafiday koyrope doomidi ayfe markatinne qaala haggaazeysati nuus odidaysa. 
Taka ta baggara koyrope akeeka xeellidaape guye, he taarikiya hanota maarayada new xaafoy lo77o gididi bentis. 
Hessika, ne tamaaridabay tuma gideysa erisanaasa. 
Yihuda kawa Herodiisa wode Abiya yaraape gidida Zakaryaasa geetetiya Ayhude kahiney de7ees. Iya machiyaka Aarona sheeshape. I sunthayka Elsabeexo. 
Nam7ayka Godaa wogaanne kiita ubbaa naagidi borey bayna Xoossaa sinthan xillotethan de7idosona. 
Hanope attishin, Elsabeexa maynthi gidida gisho entaw na7i baawa; nam7ayka qassi cimidosona. 
Issi gallas Zakaryaasi ba gishuwa maaran Xoossaa sinthan kahinetethan haggaazees. 
Kahinetetha wogan Xoossa Keethi gelidi ixaane cuyisanaw iya saami gakis. 
Ixaaney cuyaa wode asay karen woossees. 
Godaa kiitanchoy yarsho yarshiya bessaafe ushacha baggara eqidi bentis. 
Zakaryaasi iya be7ida wode dagammidi daro yayyis. 
Shin kiitanchoy iyako, “Zakaryaasa yayyofa; ne woosay si7etis. Ne machiya Elsabeexa adde na7a yelana, iya Yohaanisa gada ne sunthana. 
I new injenne ufaysi gidana; daroti iya yeletethan ufaytana. 
Godaa sinthan I gita gidana; woyne ushshi gidin hara mathoyiya ushsha uyenna. Ba aaye ulon de7ishe Geeshsha Ayyaanan kumana. 
Isra7eele asatape darota banta Godaa, Xoossaako zaarana. 
Aawata wozana naytako zaarana, kiitetonayisata xillota cincatethaako zaarana mela, Godaas bessiya dere giigisanaw Eeliyaasa ayyaananinne wolqan Godaa sinthan baana” yaagis. 
Zakaryaasi kiitanchuwako, “Ta hessa aybin eranee? Taaranne ta machera cimida” yaagis. 
Kiitanchoy zaaridi, “Taani Xoossaa sinthan eqiya Gabreele. Ha mishiraachuwa new odanaw Xoossaafe kiitetas. 
Heko, wodiya naagidi poletiya ta qaala ne ammanonna ixida gisho, haysi poletana gakanaw neeni muume gidana, odetanawuka danda7aka” yaagis. 
He wode Zakaryaasi Xoossa Keethi gelidi gam7ida gisho, aybi hanide gidi asay karen naagishe gam7is. 
I kare keyidi entana odisanaw danda7ibeenna. Malli besope attishin, odetanaw danda7onaysa be7ida wode qoncethi be7idaysa eridosona. 
Zakaryaasi ba haggaazuwa polidi soo simmis. 
Hessafe guye, iya machiya Elsabeexa qanthatasu. Ichashu ageena kumethi bana genthada gam7asu. 
Iya, “Goday ba maarotan ta boriya asaa giddofe digganaw be7idi ha wodiyan haysa oothis” yaagasu. 
Elsabeexa qanthatin usupuntho ageenan, Xoossay kiitanchuwa Gabreele Galila biittan de7iya Naazirete katamaa kiittis. 
Kawa Dawita sheeshape gidida Yoosefa geetetiya uraas oyshetida geela7eeko kiittis. He geela7iya Mayraamo geetetawusu. 
Kiitanchoy iiko bidi, “Daro dosetidaare, saroy new gido, Xoossay neera de7ees; neeni anjetidaaro” yaagis. 
Mayraama iya odan daro dagammada, “Haysi aybi sarotho” gada heetasu. 
Kiitanchoy zaaridi, “Mayraame, babofa; neeni Xoossa sinthan saba demmadasa. 
Heko neeni qanthatana adde na7a yelana, iya sunthaa Yesuusa gada sunthana. 
I gita gidana, Ubbaafe Bolla Xoossaa na7aa geetetidi xeegetana. Godaa Xoossay iya aawa Dawita araata iyaw immana. 
I Yayqooba sheesha bolla merinaw kawotana; iya kawotethaas zawi baawa” yaagis. 
Mayraama kiitanchuwako, “Hessi waanidi hananee? Ta adde erike” yaagasu. 
Kiitanchoy zaaridi, “Geeshsha Ayyaanay ne bolla wodhana, Ubbaafe Bolla Xoossaa wolqay ne bolla kuyatana. Hessa gisho, yeletiya geeshsha na7ay Xoossaa Na7aa geetetana. 
Heko, ne dabiya Elsabeexa ba cimatetha laythan adde na7a qanthatasu. Iya maynthi geetetidaaro, shin ha77i usupuntho ageena oykasu. 
Xoossaa xooniyabay baawa” yaagis. 
Mayraama, “Heko, taani Godaa aylliw, ne qaalada taw hano” yaagasu. Hessafe guye, kiitanchoy iipe shaaketis. 
Mayraama he saamintan dendada Yihuda biittan de7iya issi derey dariya katama basu. 
Zakaryaasa soo gelada Elsabeexo sarothasu. 
Elsabeexa Mayraami sarothuwa si7ida wode I uluwan de7iya na7ay ufaysan gupis. Elsabeexa Geeshsha Ayyaanan kumada, 
ba qaala dhoqu oothada, “Neeni maccasa giddofe anjetidaaro, ne qanthatida na7ayka anjetidaysa. 
Hanoshin, ta Godaa aaye, neeni taako yaana mela taani oonee? 
Heko ne sarothuwa ta si7ida wode ta uluwan de7iya na7ay ufaysan gupis. 
Goday polana gidi immida qaala ammanidara, iya anjetidaaro” yaagasu. 
Mayraama haysada yaagasu: “Ta shempiya Godaa bonchawusu, 
ta Ayyaanay dhaliya Xoossan ufaytees. 
I ba aylle kawushatethaa be7is. Hachife doomidi yeletethi ubbay tana anjetidaaro gaana. 
Ayis giiko, wolqaama gidida I, taw gitaba oothis. Iya sunthay Geeshshaa. 
Iya boncheyisata bolla, iya maarotethay merinaape merinaa gakanaasa. 
Ba qesiyan minoba oothis, banta wozanan otorteyisata laallis. 
Wolqaama kawota araatape kawushis; bantana kawushidaysata kaaboyis. 
Koshatidaysata lo77oban kalsis, shin dureta mela kushe yeddis. 
Ba maarota qopidi, Ba aylliya Isra7eele maaddis. 
Hessika nu aawatas odida qaala, Abrahaamesinne iya sheeshas gidaysa merinaw polanaasa” yaagasu. 
Mayraama Elsabeexi matan heedzu ageena mela gam7ada ba soo simmasu. 
Elsabeexis yelo qammay gakin adde na7a yelasu. 
I shoorotinne I dabboti Goday gita maarota oothidaysa si7idi, iira issife ufaytidosona. 
Hospuntha gallasan yooga na7aa qaxaranaw yidosona. Iya aawa sunthan Zakaryaasa gidi sunthanaw koydosona. 
Shin aayiya, “Akay, Yohaanisa geetetanaw bessees” yaagasu. 
Entika, “Ne dabbotape ha sunthan xeegetiday oonika baawa” yaagidosona. 
Iya aaway oona gidi sunthaneko eranaw koyidi iya malla oychidosona. 
I xaafiyabaa oychi ekidi, “Iya sunthay Yohaanisa” gidi xaafis. Ubbay I xaafidaysa be7idi malaaletidosona. 
Iira Zakaryaasa inxarsay biletis, Xoossaa galatishe odetethi oykis. 
Shooroti ubbay yashshan kumidosona. Ha hanidabay derey dariya Yihuda biittan odetis. 
Hessa si7ida ubbay, “Ha na7ay ay hanandesha” gidi banta giddon odetidosona. Godaa kushey iyara de7ees. 
Yohaanisa aaway Zakaryaasi Geeshsha Ayyaanan kumidi haysada yaagidi tinbite odis. 
“Isra7eele Goday galatetto, yidi ba asaa wozis. 
Ba aylliya Dawita keethan atotetha kaciya denthis. 
Hessika beni wode geeshsha nabeta doonan odetidaysa mela, 
Iya ashoy nu morketapenne nuura eqetiya ubbaa kushiyape. 
Hessa I oothiday nu aawatas ba maarota bessanaasinne, ba geeshsha caaquwa naaganaassa. 
Nu aawa Abrahaames caaqida caaquwa qopanaasinne 
nu morketa kushepe kessidi yashshi bayna iya haggaazana melasa. 
Nu laytha ubban geeshshatethaninne xillotethan ba sinthan nuna essanaasa. 
Qassi la na7aw, neeni Ubbaafe Bolla Xoossaa nabe geetetana. Godaa ogiya loythanaw ne iya sinthan baana. 
Enta nagaray qushetin, enti atotethi demmanaysa ne Godaa deriyas odana. 
Nu Xoossaa lo77o maarotethaafe dendoysan wonta xalqey nuus saluwape keyis. 
Hessika dhumaninne, hayqo kuya garsan de7eysatas poo7isanaasa, nu tohuwaka saro ogiyako zaaranaasa” yaagis. 
Na7ay diccis, Ayyaanan minnis, Isra7eele asaas qoncana gakanaw mela biittan de7is.
