Рождение Исы Масиха

В те дни император Август[a] издал указ о проведении переписи по всей Римской империи. Это была первая перепись, она проводилась в то время, когда Сирией управлял Квириний[b]. Поэтому каждый отправился в свой город для регистрации. Юсуф тоже пошёл из галилейского города Назарета в Иудею, в город Давуда, называемый Вифлеем, потому что он был потомком царя Давуда. Он отправился на перепись вместе с Марьям, которая была с ним обручена и ожидала ребёнка. В Вифлееме у Марьям подошло время родов, и она родила своего первенца, запеленала Его и положила в кормушку для скота, потому что для них не нашлось места в гостинице.

Ангелы возвещают пастухам радостную весть

Неподалёку были пастухи, которые жили в поле и стерегли ночью своё стадо. Вдруг перед ними предстал ангел от Вечного, окружённый сиянием славы Вечного. Пастухи очень испугались, 10 но ангел сказал им:

– Не бойтесь. Я пришёл сообщить вам весть, что принесёт великую радость всему народу! 11 Сегодня в городе Давуда родился ваш Спаситель[c] – Масих[d], Повелитель! 12 Вот вам знак: вы найдёте младенца, запелёнатого и лежащего в кормушке.

13 И вдруг к ангелу присоединилось многочисленное небесное воинство, славившее Всевышнего и восклицавшее:

14 – Хвала Всевышнему в вышине небес!
А на земле мир тем людям, к которым Он благоволит!

15 Когда ангелы вернулись на небеса, пастухи сказали друг другу:

– Пойдём в Вифлеем и посмотрим, что там произошло, о чём это нам объявил Вечный?

16 Они поспешили туда и нашли Марьям, Юсуфа и младенца, лежащего в кормушке для скота. 17 Когда они Его увидели, то рассказали всё, что им было сказано об этом младенце. 18 Все, кто слушал, удивлялись рассказу пастухов, 19 а Марьям всё запоминала и размышляла об этом. 20 Пастухи возвратились, прославляя и восхваляя Всевышнего за всё, что они видели и слышали: всё оказалось точно так, как им и было сказано.

Обрезание, наречение имени и посвящение Исы Масиха Всевышнему

21 На восьмой день, когда пришло время совершить над Ним обряд обрезания, Его назвали Иса – имя, которое ангел дал Ему ещё до того, как Он был зачат. 22 Когда закончилось время очищения, предписанное Законом Мусы,[e] Марьям и Юсуф понесли младенца в Иерусалим, чтобы посвятить Его Вечному, 23 потому что в Законе Вечного написано: «каждый первенец мужского пола должен быть посвящён Вечному»[f]. 24 Они должны были также по Закону Вечного принести в жертву пару горлиц или двух молодых голубей.[g]

Благословение и пророчество Шимона

25 В Иерусалиме в это время был человек, которого звали Шимон. Он был праведен и благочестив, и с надеждой ожидал Того, Кто принесёт утешение для Исраила, и на нём был Святой Дух. 26 Святой Дух открыл ему, что он не умрёт, пока не увидит Масиха, посланного Вечным. 27 Ведомый Святым Духом, Шимон пришёл в храм, и когда родители принесли младенца Ису, чтобы совершить над Ним то, что было установлено Законом, 28 Шимон взял Его на руки и прославил Всевышнего, сказав:

29 – Владыка! Как Ты и обещал,
    теперь Ты отпускаешь Своего раба с миром,
30 потому что мои глаза увидели спасение,
31     которое Ты приготовил перед лицом всех народов,
32 свет откровения язычникам
    и славу народа Твоего, Исраила![h]

33 Отец и мать удивлялись тому, что было сказано об Исе. 34 Потом Шимон благословил их и сказал Марьям, матери ребёнка:

– Это дитя будет причиной падения и возвышения для многих в Исраиле и станет знамением от Всевышнего, которое будет многими отвергаемо, – 35 да и тебе самой меч пронзит душу. Через всё это откроются тайные мысли многих людей.

36 Там находилась также пророчица Ханна, дочь Пануила, из рода Ашира. Она была в глубокой старости. Ханна прожила семь лет со своим мужем, 37 а всю остальную жизнь она жила вдовой. Ей было восемьдесят четыре года.[i] Она никогда не покидала храма, день и ночь служа Всевышнему постами и молитвами. 38 Подойдя в этот момент к тем, кто принёс младенца, она возблагодарила Всевышнего и говорила о ребёнке всем ожидавшим избавления для Иерусалима.

39 Когда родители Исы сделали всё, что предписывал Закон Вечного, они возвратились в Галилею, в свой родной город Назарет. 40 Ребёнок рос и набирался сил и мудрости, и Всевышний был благосклонен к Нему.

Двенадцатилетний Иса в храме

41 Каждый год на праздник Освобождения[j] родители Исы ходили в Иерусалим. 42 Когда Ему было двенадцать лет, они, как обычно, пошли на праздник. 43 После окончания праздника, когда все возвращались домой, мальчик Иса остался в Иерусалиме, но Его родители об этом не знали. 44 Полагая, что Он идёт среди других путников, они после целого дня пути стали искать Его среди родственников и знакомых. 45 Не найдя, они возвратились в Иерусалим искать там. 46 Через три дня они нашли мальчика в храме. Он сидел среди учителей, слушал их и задавал вопросы. 47 Все, кто Его слышал, поражались Его пониманию и Его ответам. 48 Родители были изумлены, увидев Его там.

– Сынок, почему Ты так с нами поступил? – спросила Его мать. – Твой отец и я беспокоились и искали Тебя.

49 – Зачем же вы Меня искали? – спросил Он. – Разве вы не знали, что Я должен быть в доме Отца Моего?

50 Но они не поняли, о чём Он им говорил. 51 Он возвратился с ними в Назарет и был послушен им. Но всё происшедшее Его мать хранила в своей памяти.

52 Иса взрослел и становился мудрее. Его любили и люди, и Всевышний.[k]

And it came to pass, that in those days there went out a decree from Caesar Augustus, that the whole world should be enrolled.

This enrolling was first made by Cyrinus, the governor of Syria.

And all went to be enrolled, every one into his own city.

And Joseph also went up from Galilee, out of the city of Nazareth into Judea, to the city of David, which is called Bethlehem: because he was of the house and family of David,

To be enrolled with Mary his espoused wife, who was with child.

And it came to pass, that when they were there, her days were accomplished, that she should be delivered.

And she brought forth her firstborn son, and wrapped him up in swaddling clothes, and laid him in a manger; because there was no room for them in the inn.

And there were in the same country shepherds watching, and keeping the night watches over their flock.

And behold an angel of the Lord stood by them, and the brightness of God shone round about them; and they feared with a great fear.

10 And the angel said to them: Fear not; for, behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy, that shall be to all the people:

11 For, this day, is born to you a Saviour, who is Christ the Lord, in the city of David.

12 And this shall be a sign unto you. You shall find the infant wrapped in swaddling clothes, and laid in a manger.

13 And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly army, praising God, and saying:

14 Glory to God in the highest; and on earth peace to men of good will.

15 And it came to pass, after the angels departed from them into heaven, the shepherds said one to another: Let us go over to Bethlehem, and let us see this word that is come to pass, which the Lord hath shewed to us.

16 And they came with haste; and they found Mary and Joseph, and the infant lying in the manger.

17 And seeing, they understood of the word that had been spoken to them concerning this child.

18 And all that heard, wondered; and at those things that were told them by the shepherds.

19 But Mary kept all these words, pondering them in her heart.

20 And the shepherds returned, glorifying and praising God, for all the things they had heard and seen, as it was told unto them.

21 And after eight days were accomplished, that the child should be circumcised, his name was called JESUS, which was called by the angel, before he was conceived in the womb.

22 And after the days of her purification, according to the law of Moses, were accomplished, they carried him to Jerusalem, to present him to the Lord:

23 As it is written in the law of the Lord: Every male opening the womb shall be called holy to the Lord:

24 And to offer a sacrifice, according as it is written in the law of the Lord, a pair of turtledoves, or two young pigeons:

25 And behold there was a man in Jerusalem named Simeon, and this man was just and devout, waiting for the consolation of Israel; and the Holy Ghost was in him.

26 And he had received an answer from the Holy Ghost, that he should not see death, before he had seen the Christ of the Lord.

27 And he came by the Spirit into the temple. And when his parents brought in the child Jesus, to do for him according to the custom of the law,

28 He also took him into his arms, and blessed God, and said:

29 Now thou dost dismiss thy servant, O Lord, according to thy word in peace;

30 Because my eyes have seen thy salvation,

31 Which thou hast prepared before the face of all peoples:

32 A light to the revelation of the Gentiles, and the glory of thy people Israel.

33 And his father and mother were wondering at those things which were spoken concerning him.

34 And Simeon blessed them, and said to Mary his mother: Behold this child is set for the fall, and for the resurrection of many in Israel, and for a sign which shall be contradicted;

35 And thy own soul a sword shall pierce, that, out of many hearts, thoughts may be revealed.

36 And there was one Anna, a prophetess, the daughter of Phanuel, of the tribe of Aser; she was far advanced in years, and had lived with her husband seven years from her virginity.

37 And she was a widow until fourscore and four years; who departed not from the temple, by fastings and prayers serving night and day.

38 Now she, at the same hour, coming in, confessed to the Lord; and spoke of him to all that looked for the redemption of Israel.

39 And after they had performed all things according to the law of the Lord, they returned into Galilee, to their city Nazareth.

40 And the child grew, and waxed strong, full of wisdom; and the grace of God was in him.

41 And his parents went every year to Jerusalem, at the solemn day of the pasch,

42 And when he was twelve years old, they going up into Jerusalem, according to the custom of the feast,

43 And having fulfilled the days, when they returned, the child Jesus remained in Jerusalem; and his parents knew it not.

44 And thinking that he was in the company, they came a day's journey, and sought him among their kinsfolks and acquaintance.

45 And not finding him, they returned into Jerusalem, seeking him.

46 And it came to pass, that, after three days, they found him in the temple, sitting in the midst of the doctors, hearing them, and asking them questions.

47 And all that heard him were astonished at his wisdom and his answers.

48 And seeing him, they wondered. And his mother said to him: Son, why hast thou done so to us? behold thy father and I have sought thee sorrowing.

49 And he said to them: How is it that you sought me? did you not know, that I must be about my father's business?

50 And they understood not the word that he spoke unto them.

51 And he went down with them, and came to Nazareth, and was subject to them. And his mother kept all these words in her heart.

52 And Jesus advanced in wisdom, and age, and grace with God and men.

耶稣降生

那时候,罗马皇帝凯撒奥古士都下令,整个罗马帝国的人们都必须办理户口登记注册 [a],以便对人口进行普查统计。 这是第一次人口普查登记。当时正值居里扭做叙利亚总督, 因此,所有的人都回到自己的家乡去登记。

所以约瑟也离开加利利的拿撒勒城,到了犹太地区的一个叫伯利恒的城镇,此城是大卫家族的城镇。因为他是大卫家族的人,所以他到了那里。 他和马利亚一起去登记,因为马利亚已经许聘给了他,此时她正怀着孕。 他们在那里时,马利亚的产期到了, 生下了第一个儿子。因为客店没有地方容纳他们,她便把孩子用布包裹起来,放在马槽里。

牧羊人听说耶稣降临

一些牧羊人夜间露宿在野地里,照看羊群。 主的一个天使出现在他们面前,主的荣光照耀在他们的周围,牧羊人都非常惊恐。 10 天使对他们说∶“不要害怕,我给你们带来了好消息。这个消息也将给普天下的人们带来极大的喜悦。 11 因为今天在大卫城里你们的救世主诞生了,他就是主基督。 12 你们在马槽里将发现有个用布包着的婴儿躺在那里,那就是给你们的记号。”

13 突然,一队天兵和天使一起出现,他们齐声称颂道:

14 “荣耀归于至高无上的上帝,
和平赐给在地上他所喜爱的人们。”

15 然后,天使离开他们,返回了天上。牧羊人互相说道∶“我们到伯利恒去看看主告诉我们已经发生的事情吧。”

16 于是,这些牧羊人就急急忙忙赶到了那里,找到了马利亚和约瑟,也看见了躺在马槽里的婴儿。 17 他们看到这个婴儿后,就把天使讲的关于这个婴儿的事情告诉了大家。 18 人们都为牧羊人告诉他们的事情感到惊讶。 19 但是,马利亚却把这些事情记在心上,反复地琢磨着。 20 牧羊人回去后,都为他们的所见所闻赞美上帝,因为他们耳闻目睹的事情正与天使所说的完全一致。

21 婴儿出生后的第八天,便受了割礼,取名叫耶稣,这个名字是天使在马利亚怀孕以前就为他取好了的。

在大殿里呈献耶稣

22 按照摩西律法,到了洁净的日子 [b]了。约瑟和马利亚带着孩子一起去耶路撒冷。他们要把他呈献在主的面前。 23 因为主的律法中写道∶“每家的长子应该呈献给主 [c]。” 24 主的律法还说,他们必须奉献祭物∶“必须为主献上一对鸽子 [d]或两只幼鸽 [e]。”

西面见到耶稣

25 耶路撒冷城里有一个名叫西面的人,他是一个公正、虔诚的人,一直期待着上帝帮助以色列。圣灵与他同在。 26 圣灵向他揭示:他死之前,将会看到主耶稣基督。 27 圣灵引导西面来到大殿院里,与此同时,约瑟和马利亚也把他们的孩子抱进了大殿院,正准备按照律法履行所规定的事项。 28 西面把孩子抱在怀里,赞美上帝道:

29 “主啊,就按您的许诺,
让您的仆人安然地死去吧!
30 因为我已经亲眼看见了您的拯救 [f]
31 那是您在万民面前准备的。
32 他是一盏明灯,
为外族人带来了启示,
为您的子民以色列带来荣誉。”

33 耶稣的父母听到关于耶稣的话,感到十分惊讶。 34 西面又为他们祝福,并对马利亚说∶“这个孩子命中注定要使许多以色列人兴衰,他也注定是一个被抛弃的迹象, 35 (他也是一把刺穿你们内心的利剑),揭露许多人的内心思想。”

亚拿见到耶稣

36 当时还有一个名叫亚拿的女先知,她是亚设族人法内力的女儿。亚拿已经很老了,她只与丈夫一起生活了七年,就寡居了, 37 她现在八十四岁。她从未离开过大殿,通过禁食 [g]和祈祷,日日夜夜崇拜上帝。

38 此刻,亚拿来到孩子和他父母那里,向上帝谢恩,并把关于耶稣的事情告诉给那些等待着耶路撒冷得到拯救的所有人们。

约瑟和马利亚回家

39 约瑟和马利亚按照主的律法,完成一切所规定的事,然后,返回了加利利,到了他们的家乡拿撒勒。 40 耶稣渐渐长大了,强壮而有智慧,上帝的恩典与他同在。

少年耶稣

41 耶稣的父母每年都到耶路撒冷去过逾越节。 42 在他十二岁那年,父母又像往常一样去过节。 43 节期结束后,约瑟和马利亚动身回家了。耶稣却留在了耶路撒冷,他父母并不知道这事, 44 还以为他走在同行的人群里。他们走了一整天后,才开始在亲戚、朋友群里找耶稣, 45 但没有找到他。因此,他们又返回了耶路撒冷去找耶稣。 46 三天后,他们在大殿院里找到了耶稣。当时,他正坐在老师们中间,边听边问。 47 所有在场的人都对耶稣的理解力和应对能力感到非常惊讶。 48 约瑟和马利亚在那里找到耶稣,十分吃惊。马利亚对耶稣说∶“儿子,你为什么要离开我们呢?你父亲和我都在非常焦急地寻找你。”

49 可是,耶稣却对他们说∶“你们为什么要找我呢?难道你们不知道,我必须在我父亲的家里吗?” 50 约瑟和马利亚并不明白这话的含意。

51 耶稣与父母一起回到了拿撒勒。他很听话,事事顺从父母。马利亚把这一切都记在了心上。 52 耶稣身体和智慧随年龄增长着,并且深受上帝和人们的喜爱。

Jesus’ Birth in Bethlehem

Now in those days a decree went out from (A)Caesar Augustus, that a census be taken of (B)all [a]the inhabited earth. [b]This was the first census taken while [c]Quirinius was governor of (C)Syria. And all the people were on their way to register for the census, each to his own city. Now Joseph also went up from Galilee, from the city of Nazareth, to Judea, to the city of David which is called Bethlehem, because (D)he was of the house and family of David, in order to register along with Mary, who was [d]betrothed to him, and was pregnant. While they were there, the [e]time came for her to give birth. And she (E)gave birth to her firstborn son; and she wrapped Him in cloths, and laid Him in a [f]manger, because there was no [g]room for them in the inn.

In the same region there were some shepherds staying out in the fields and keeping watch over their flock at night. And (F)an angel of the Lord suddenly (G)stood near them, and the glory of the Lord shone around them; and they were terribly frightened. 10 And so the angel said to them, “(H)Do not be afraid; for behold, I bring you good news of great joy which will be for all the people; 11 for today in the city of David there has been born for you a (I)Savior, who is [h](J)Christ (K)the Lord. 12 And (L)this will be a sign for you: you will find a baby wrapped in cloths and lying in a [i]manger.” 13 And suddenly there appeared with the angel a multitude of the heavenly [j]army of angels praising God and saying,

14 (M)Glory to God in the highest,
And on earth peace among people [k](N)with whom He is pleased.”

15 When the angels had departed from them into heaven, the shepherds began saying to one another, “Let’s go straight to Bethlehem, then, and see this thing that has happened, which the Lord has made known to us.” 16 And they came in a hurry and found their way to Mary and Joseph, and the baby as He lay in the [l]manger. 17 When they had seen Him, they made known the statement which had been told them about this Child. 18 And all who heard it were amazed about the things which were told them by the shepherds. 19 But Mary (O)treasured all these things, pondering them in her heart. 20 And the shepherds went back, (P)glorifying and praising God for all that they had heard and seen, just as had been told them.

Jesus Presented at the Temple

21 And when (Q)eight days were completed [m]so that it was time for His circumcision, (R)He was also named Jesus, the name given by the angel before He was conceived in the womb.

22 (S)And when the days for [n]their purification according to the Law of Moses were completed, they brought Him up to Jerusalem to present Him to the Lord 23 (as it is written in the Law of the Lord: “(T)Every firstborn male that opens the womb shall be called holy to the Lord”), 24 and to offer a sacrifice according to what has been stated in the Law of the Lord: “(U)A pair of turtledoves or two young doves.”

25 And there was a man in Jerusalem whose name was Simeon; and this man was (V)righteous and devout, (W)looking forward to the consolation of Israel; and the Holy Spirit was upon him. 26 And (X)it had been revealed to him by the Holy Spirit that he would not (Y)see death before he had seen the Lord’s [o]Christ. 27 And he came [p]by the Spirit into the temple; and when the parents brought in the child Jesus, [q](Z)to carry out for Him the custom of the Law, 28 then he took Him in his arms, and blessed God, and said,

29 “Now, Lord, You are letting Your bond-servant depart in peace,
(AA)According to Your word;
30 For my eyes have (AB)seen Your salvation,
31 Which You have prepared in the presence of all the peoples:
32 (AC)A light for revelation [r]for the Gentiles,
And the glory of Your people Israel.”

33 And His father and (AD)mother were amazed at the things which were being said about Him. 34 And Simeon blessed them and said to (AE)His mother Mary, “Behold, this Child is appointed for (AF)the fall and [s]rise of many in Israel, and as a sign to be [t]opposed— 35 and a sword will pierce your own soul—to the end that thoughts from many hearts may be revealed.”

36 And there was a (AG)prophetess, [u]Anna, the daughter of Phanuel, of (AH)the tribe of Asher. She was advanced in [v]years (AI)and had lived with her husband for seven years after her [w]marriage, 37 and then as a widow to the age of eighty-four. She did not leave the temple grounds, serving night and day with (AJ)fasts and prayers. 38 And at that very [x]moment she came up and began giving thanks to God, and continued to speak about Him to all those who were (AK)looking forward to the redemption of Jerusalem.

Return to Nazareth

39 And when His parents had completed everything in accordance with the Law of the Lord, they returned to Galilee, to (AL)their own city of Nazareth. 40 (AM)Now the Child continued to grow and to become strong, [y]increasing in wisdom; and the favor of God was upon Him.

Visit to Jerusalem

41 His parents went to Jerusalem every year at (AN)the Feast of the Passover. 42 And when He was twelve years old, they went up there according to the custom of the feast; 43 and as they were returning, after spending the (AO)full number of days required, the boy Jesus stayed behind in Jerusalem, but His parents were unaware of it. 44 Instead, they thought that He was somewhere in the caravan, and they went a day’s journey; and then they began looking for Him among their relatives and acquaintances. 45 And when they did not find Him, they returned to Jerusalem, looking for Him. 46 Then, after three days they found Him in the temple, sitting in the midst of the teachers, both listening to them and asking them questions. 47 And all who heard Him (AP)were amazed at His understanding and His answers. 48 When Joseph and Mary saw Him, they were bewildered; and (AQ)His mother said to Him, “Son, why have You treated us this way? Behold, (AR)Your father and I have been anxiously looking for You!” 49 And He said to them, “Why is it that you were looking for Me? Did you not know that (AS)I had to be in My Father’s [z]house?” 50 And yet (AT)they on their part did not understand the statement which He had [aa]made to them. 51 And He went down with them and came to (AU)Nazareth, and He continued to be subject to them; and (AV)His mother (AW)treasured all these [ab]things in her heart.

52 And Jesus kept increasing in wisdom and [ac]stature, and in (AX)favor with God and people.
