| [1]NOW it was in those days that there went forth a mandate from Augustus Caesar to enrol the people of his dominion. |
[1]Ἐγένετο δὲ ἐν ταῖς ἡμέραις ἐκείναις ἐξῆλθε δόγμα παρὰ Καίσαρος Αὐγούστου ἀπογράφεσθαι πᾶσαν τὴν οἰκουμένην. |
| [2]This enrolment was first made under the government of Qurinos in Suria. |
[2]αὕτη ἡ ἀπογραφὴ πρώτη ἐγένετο ἡγεμονεύοντος τῆς Συρίας Κυρηνίου. |
| [3]And every man went to be enrolled in his city. |
[3]καὶ ἐπορεύοντο πάντες ἀπογράφεσθαι, ἕκαστος εἰς τὴν ἰδίαν πόλιν. |
| [4]And Jauseph also went up from Natsrath of Galila, unto Jehud, to the city of David, which is called Beth-lechem, because he was of the house and of the family of David, |
[4]ἀνέβη δὲ καὶ ᾿Ιωσὴφ ἀπὸ τῆς Γαλιλαίας ἐκ πόλεως Ναζαρὲτ εἰς τὴν ᾿Ιουδαίαν εἰς πόλιν Δαυΐδ, ἥτις καλεῖται Βηθλεέμ, διὰ τὸ εἶναι αὐτὸν ἐξ οἴκου καὶ πατριᾶς Δαυΐδ, |
| [5]With Mariam his espoused while with child, there to be enrolled. |
[5]ἀπογράψασθαι σὺν Μαριὰμ τῇ μεμνηστευμένῃ αὐτῷ γυναικί, οὔσῃ ἐγκύῳ. |
| [6]And it was that while they were there, the days were fulfilled that she should give birth: |
[6]ἐγένετο δὲ ἐν τῷ εἶναι αὐτοὺς ἐκεῖ ἐπλήσθησαν αἱ ἡμέραι τοῦ τεκεῖν αὐτήν, |
| [7]And she brought forth her son, the first-born, and wrapped him in bandages, and laid him in the manger; because there was no place for them where they stayed. |
[7]καὶ ἔτεκε τὸν υἱὸν αὐτῆς τὸν πρωτότοκον, καὶ ἐσπαργάνωσεν αὐτὸν καὶ ἀνέκλινεν αὐτὸν ἐν τῇ φάτνῃ, διότι οὐκ ἦν αὐτοῖς τόπος ἐν τῷ καταλύματι. |
| [8]But there were shepherds in the country who were staying there, and keeping watch by night over their flocks. |
[8]Καὶ ποιμένες ἦσαν ἐν τῇ χώρᾳ τῇ αὐτῇ ἀγραυλοῦντες καὶ φυλάσσοντες φυλακὰς τῆς νυκτὸς ἐπὶ τὴν ποίμνην αὐτῶν. |
| [9]And, behold, the angel of Aloha came to them, and the glory of the Lord shone upon them; and they feared with great fear. |
[9]καὶ ἰδοὺ ἄγγελος Κυρίου ἐπέστη αὐτοῖς καὶ δόξα Κυρίου περιέλαμψεν αὐτούς, καὶ ἐφοβήθησαν φόβον μέγαν. |
| [10]And the angel said to them, Fear not; for, behold, I announce to you great joy, which shall be to all people: |
[10]καὶ εἶπεν αὐτοῖς ὁ ἄγγελος· μὴ φοβεῖσθε· ἰδοὺ γὰρ εὐαγγελίζομαι ὑμῖν χαρὰν μεγάλην, ἥτις ἔσται παντὶ τῷ λαῷ, |
| [11]For there is born for you to-day the Redeemer, who is the Lord the Meshicha, in the city of David. |
[11]ὅτι ἐτέχθη ὑμῖν σήμερον σωτήρ, ὅς ἐστι Χριστὸς Κύριος, ἐν πόλει Δαυΐδ. |
| [12]And this is to you the sign, You shall find the infant wrapped in bandages, and laid in a manger. |
[12]καὶ τοῦτο ὑμῖν τὸ σημεῖον· εὑρήσετε βρέφος ἐσπαργανωμένον, κείμενον ἐν φάτνῃ. |
| [13]And instantly there were seen with the angel many hosts of the heavens, glorifying Aloha, and saying, |
[13]καὶ ἐξαίφνης ἐγένετο σὺν τῷ ἀγγέλῳ πλῆθος στρατιᾶς οὐρανίου αἰνούντων τὸν Θεὸν καὶ λεγόντων· |
| [14]Glory to Aloha in the heights, and upon earth peace and good hope for the sons of men. |
[14]δόξα ἐν ὑψίστοις Θεῷ καὶ ἐπὶ γῆς εἰρήνη, ἐν ἀνθρώποις εὐδοκία. |
| [15]And when the angels were gone from them into heaven, the shepherds spake one with another, and said, Let us go unto Beth-lechem, and see the thing which the Lord hath made known to us. |
[15]καὶ ἐγένετο ὡς ἀπῆλθον ἀπ᾿ αὐτῶν εἰς τὸν οὐρανὸν οἱ ἄγγελοι, καὶ οἱ ἄνθρωποι οἱ ποιμένες εἶπον πρὸς ἀλλήλους· διέλθωμεν δὴ ἕως Βηθλεὲμ καὶ ἴδωμεν τὸ ῥῆμα τοῦτο τὸ γεγονός, ὃ ὁ Κύριος ἐγνώρισεν ἡμῖν. |
| [16]And they came with speed, and found Mariam, and Jauseph, and the infant who was laid in the manger; |
[16]καὶ ἦλθον σπεύσαντες, καὶ ἀνεῦρον τήν τε Μαριὰμ καὶ τὸν ᾿Ιωσὴφ καὶ τὸ βρέφος κείμενον ἐν τῇ φάτνῃ. |
| [17]And when they saw, they showed the word which had been spoken to them concerning the child. |
[17]ἰδόντες δὲ διεγνώρισαν περὶ τοῦ ῥήματος τοῦ λαληθέντος αὐτοῖς περὶ τοῦ παιδίου τούτου· |
| [18]And all who heard wondered at those [things] which were told them by the shepherds. |
[18]καὶ πάντες οἱ ἀκούσαντες ἐθαύμασαν περὶ τῶν λαληθέντων ὑπὸ τῶν ποιμένων πρὸς αὐτούς. |
| [19]But Mariam kept all these words, and compared them in her heart. |
[19]ἡ δὲ Μαριὰμ πάντα συνετήρει τὰ ῥήματα ταῦτα συμβάλλουσα ἐν τῇ καρδίᾳ αὐτῆς. |
| [20]And those shepherds returned, glorifying and praising Aloha for all that they had seen and heard as they had been spoken to them. |
[20]καὶ ὑπέστρεψαν οἱ ποιμένες δοξάζοντες καὶ αἰνοῦντες τὸν Θεὸν ἐπὶ πᾶσιν οἷς ἤκουσαν καὶ εἶδον καθὼς ἐλαλήθη πρὸς αὐτούς. |
| [21]AND when the eight days completed to circumcise the child, his name was called Jeshu, for he was so called by the angel before he was conceived in the womb. |
[21]Καὶ ὅτε ἐπλήσθησαν αἱ ἡμέραι ὀκτὼ τοῦ περιτεμεῖν τὸ παιδίον, καὶ ἐκλήθη τὸ ὄνομα αὐτοῦ ᾿Ιησοῦς, τὸ κληθὲν ὑπὸ τοῦ ἀγγέλου πρὸ τοῦ συλληφθῆναι αὐτὸν ἐν τῇ κοιλίᾳ. |
| [22]And when were completed, the days of their purification according to the law of Musha, they carried him up to Urishlem, to present himⓘ before the Lord: |
[22]Καὶ ὅτε ἐπλήσθησαν αἱ ἡμέραι τοῦ καθαρισμοῦ αὐτῶν κατὰ τὸν νόμον Μωϋσέως, ἀνήγαγον αὐτὸν εἰς ῾Ιεροσόλυμα παραστῆσαι τῷ Κυρίῳ, |
| [23](as it is written in the law of the Lord, That every male [who] openeth the matrix the holy to the Lord shall be called:) |
[23]καθὼς γέγραπται ἐν νόμῳ Κυρίου ὅτι πᾶν ἄρσεν διανοῖγον μήτραν ἅγιον τῷ Κυρίῳ κληθήσεται, |
| [24]And to offer the sacrifice as it is said in the law of the Lord, A pair of turtle-doves, or two of the young of pigeons. |
[24]καὶ τοῦ δοῦναι θυσίαν κατὰ τὸ εἰρημένον ἐν νόμῳ Κυρίου, ζεῦγος τρυγόνων ἢ δύο νεοσσοὺς περιστερῶν. |
| [25]But there was a certain man in Urishlem, whose name was Shemun; and this man was just and righteous, and he had waited for the consolation of Isroel, and the Spirit of Holiness was upon him. |
[25]Καὶ ἰδοὺ ἦν ἄνθρωπος ἐν ῾Ιεροσολύμοις ᾧ ὄνομα Συμεών, καὶ ὁ ἄνθρωπος οὗτος δίκαιος καὶ εὐλαβής, προσδεχόμενος παράκλησιν τοῦ ᾿Ισραήλ, καὶ Πνεῦμα ἦν ῞Αγιον ἐπ᾿ αὐτόν· |
| [26]And it was said to him from the Spirit of Holiness, that he should not see death, until he had seen the Meshicha of the Lord. |
[26]καὶ ἦν αὐτῷ κεχρηματισμένον ὑπὸ τοῦ Πνεύματος τοῦ ῾Αγίου μὴ ἰδεῖν θάνατον πρὶν ἢ ἴδῃ τὸν Χριστὸν Κυρίου. |
| [27]Behold, this man came in the Spirit to the temple, and when his parentsⓘ brought in Jeshu the child, to do for him as it is commanded in the law, |
[27]καὶ ἦλθεν ἐν τῷ Πνεύματι εἰς τὸ ἱερόν· καὶ ἐν τῷ εἰσαγαγεῖν τοὺς γονεῖς τὸ παιδίον ᾿Ιησοῦν τοῦ ποιῆσαι αὐτοὺς κατὰ τὸ εἰθισμένον τοῦ νόμου περὶ αὐτοῦ, |
| [28]He took him upon his arms and blessed Aloha, and said, |
[28]καὶ αὐτὸς ἐδέξατο αὐτὸν εἰς τὰς ἀγκάλας αὐτοῦ καὶ εὐλόγησε τὸν Θεὸν καὶ εἶπε· |
| [29]Now dismiss thy servant, my Lord, according to thy word, in peace; |
[29]νῦν ἀπολύεις τὸν δοῦλόν σου, δέσποτα, κατὰ τὸ ῥῆμά σου ἐν εἰρήνῃ, |
| [30]For lo, mine eyes have seen thy grace, |
[30]ὅτι εἶδον οἱ ὀφθαλμοί μου τὸ σωτήριόν σου, |
| [31]Which thou hast prepared in the face of all the nations; |
[31]ὃ ἡτοίμασας κατὰ πρόσωπον πάντων τῶν λαῶν, |
| [32]A light for the revelation of the peoples, and the glory of thy people Isroel. |
[32]φῶς εἰς ἀποκάλυψιν ἐθνῶν καὶ δόξαν λαοῦ σου ᾿Ισραήλ. |
| [33]But Jauseph and his mother wondered at these words which were spoken concerning him. |
[33]καὶ ἦν ᾿Ιωσὴφ καὶ ἡ μήτηρ αὐτοῦ θαυμάζοντες ἐπὶ τοῖς λαλουμένοις περὶ αὐτοῦ. |
| [34]And Shemun blessed them, and said to Mariam his mother, Behold, this child is set for the ruin and uprising of many in Isroel, for the sign of contention. |
[34]καὶ εὐλόγησεν αὐτοὺς Συμεὼν καὶ εἶπε πρὸς Μαριὰμ τὴν μητέρα αὐτοῦ· ἰδοὺ οὗτος κεῖται εἰς πτῶσιν καὶ ἀνάστασιν πολλῶν ἐν τῷ ᾿Ισραὴλ καὶ εἰς σημεῖον ἀντιλεγόμενον. |
| [35]And through thine own soul shall pass a spear, that may be revealed the reasonings of the hearts of many. |
[35]καὶ σοῦ δὲ αὐτῆς τὴν ψυχὴν διελεύσεται ῥομφαία, ὅπως ἂν ἀποκαλυφθῶσιν ἐκ πολλῶν καρδιῶν διαλογισμοί. |
| [36]NOW Chana,ⓘ the prophetess, [was] the daughter of Phanuel, of the tribe of Asher; she was aged also in her days, and seven years with her husband had lived from her virginity. |
[36]Καὶ ἦν ῎Αννα προφῆτις, θυγάτηρ Φανουήλ, ἐκ φυλῆς ᾿Ασήρ· αὕτη προβεβηκυῖα ἐν ἡμέραις πολλαῖς, ζήσασα ἔτη μετὰ ἀνδρὸς ἑπτὰ ἀπὸ τῆς παρθενίας αὐτῆς, |
| [37]And she was a widow as of years eighty and four, and she removed not from the temple, and with fasting and with prayer she worshippedⓘ in the day and in the night. |
[37]καὶ αὐτὴ χήρα ὡς ἐτῶν ὀγδοήκοντα τεσσάρων, ἣ οὐκ ἀφίστατο ἀπὸ τοῦ ἱεροῦ νηστείαις καὶ δεήσεσι λατρεύουσα νύκτα καὶ ἡμέραν· |
| [38]And she also arose in that hour and confessedⓘ the Lord, and discoursed concerning him with all who were expecting the redemption of Urishlem. |
[38]καὶ αὕτη αὐτῇ τῇ ὥρᾳ ἐπιστᾶσα ἀνθωμολογεῖτο τῷ Κυρίῳ καὶ ἐλάλει περὶ αὐτοῦ πᾶσι τοῖς προσδεχομένοις λύτρωσιν ἐν ῾Ιερουσαλήμ. |
| [39]And when they had fulfilled every thing according to the law of the Lord, they returned unto Galila, to Natsrath their city. |
[39]Καὶ ὡς ἐτέλεσαν ἅπαντα τὰ κατὰ τὸν νόμον Κυρίου, ὑπέστρεψαν εἰς τὴν Γαλιλαίαν εἰς τὴν πόλιν ἑαυτῶν Ναζαρέτ. |
| [40]But the child grew, and was strengthened in spirit, and was filled with wisdom; and the grace of Aloha was upon him. |
[40]Τὸ δὲ παιδίον ηὔξανε καὶ ἐκραταιοῦτο πνεύματι πληρούμενον σοφίας, καὶ χάρις Θεοῦ ἦν ἐπ᾿ αὐτό. |
| [41]And his relativesⓘ every year went unto Urishlem at the feast of Petscha. |
[41]Καὶ ἐπορεύοντο οἱ γονεῖς αὐτοῦ κατ᾿ ἔτος εἰς ῾Ιερουσαλὴμ τῇ ἑορτῇ τοῦ πάσχα. |
| [42]AND when he was a son of twelve years, they went up, as they were used, to the festival. |
[42]καὶ ὅτε ἐγένετο ἐτῶν δώδεκα, ἀναβάντων αὐτῶν εἰς ῾Ιεροσόλυμα κατὰ τὸ ἔθος τῆς ἑορτῆς |
| [43]And when the days [were] fulfilled, they returned. But Jeshu, the child, remained in Urishlem, and Jauseph and his mother knew not. |
[43]καὶ τελειωσάντων τὰς ἡμέρας, ἐν τῷ ὑποστρέφειν αὐτοὺς ὑπέμεινεν ᾿Ιησοῦς ὁ παῖς ἐν ῾Ιερουσαλήμ, καὶ οὐκ ἔγνω ᾿Ιωσὴφ καὶ ἡ μήτηρ αὐτοῦ. |
| [44]For they thought that he was with the sons of the company; and when they had gone the journey of one day, they sought him with the men and with any who knew him. |
[44]νομίσαντες δὲ αὐτὸν ἐν τῇ συνοδίᾳ εἶναι ἦλθον ἡμέρας ὁδὸν καὶ ἀνεζήτουν αὐτὸν ἐν τοῖς συγγενέσι καὶ ἐν τοῖς γνωστοῖς· |
| [45]And they found him not: and they returned again to Urishlem, and sought him. |
[45]καὶ μὴ εὑρόντες αὐτὸν ὑπέστρεψαν εἰς ῾Ιερουσαλὴμ ζητοῦντες αὐτόν. |
| [46]And after three days they found him in the temple, sitting in the midst of the doctors,ⓘ hearing them and questioning them. |
[46]καὶ ἐγένετο μεθ᾿ ἡμέρας τρεῖς εὗρον αὐτὸν ἐν τῷ ἱερῷ καθεζόμενον ἐν μέσῳ τῶν διδασκάλων καὶ ἀκούοντα αὐτῶν καὶ ἐπερωτῶντα αὐτούς· |
| [47]And all of them were astonished, as they heard him, at his wisdom and at his answers. |
[47]ἐξίσταντο δὲ πάντες οἱ ἀκούοντες αὐτοῦ ἐπὶ τῇ συνέσει καὶ ταῖς ἀποκρίσεσιν αὐτοῦ. |
| [48]And when they saw him, they wondered; and his mother said to him, My son, why hast thou done with us thus? for, behold, I and thy father with great anxiety have sought thee. |
[48]καὶ ἰδόντες αὐτὸν ἐξεπλάγησαν, καὶ πρὸς αὐτὸν ἡ μήτηρ αὐτοῦ εἶπε· τέκνον, τί ἐποίησας ἡμῖν οὕτως; ἰδοὺ ὁ πατήρ σου κἀγὼ ὀδυνώμενοι ἐζητοῦμέν σε. |
| [49]He saith to them, Why have you sought me [elsewhere]? Knew you not that [in] the house of my Father it behoveth me to be? |
[49]καὶ εἶπε πρὸς αὐτούς· τί ὅτι ἐζητεῖτέ με; οὐκ ᾔδειτε ὅτι ἐν τοῖς τοῦ πατρός μου δεῖ εἶναί με; |
| [50]But they did not comprehend the word that he spake to them. |
[50]καὶ αὐτοὶ οὐ συνῆκαν τὸ ῥῆμα ὃ ἐλάλησεν αὐτοῖς. |
| [51]And he went down with them, and came to Natsrath, and was subject to them. But his mother kept all these words in her heart. |
[51]καὶ κατέβη μετ᾿ αὐτῶν καὶ ἦλθεν εἰς Ναζαρέτ, καὶ ἦν ὑποτασσόμενος αὐτοῖς. καὶ ἡ μήτηρ αὐτοῦ διετήρει πάντα τὰ ῥήματα ταῦτα ἐν τῇ καρδίᾳ αὐτῆς. |
| [52]But Jeshu increased in his stature, and in his wisdom, and in favour with Aloha and men. |
[52]Καὶ ᾿Ιησοῦς προέκοπτε σοφίᾳ καὶ ἡλικίᾳ καὶ χάριτι παρὰ Θεῷ καὶ ἀνθρώποις. |
