The Birth of Jesus Christ
2 In those days (A)a decree went out from (B)Caesar Augustus that all the world should be (C)registered. 2 This was the first (D)registration when[a] Quirinius (E)was governor of Syria. 3 And all went to be registered, each to his own town. 4 And Joseph also went up (F)from Galilee, from the town of (G)Nazareth, to Judea, to (H)the city of David, which is called (I)Bethlehem, (J)because he was of the house and lineage of David, 5 to be registered with Mary, his betrothed,[b] who was with child. 6 And (K)while they were there, the time came for her to give birth. 7 And she gave birth to her firstborn son and (L)wrapped him in swaddling cloths and (M)laid him in a manger, because there was no place for them in (N)the inn.[c]
The Shepherds and the Angels
8 And in the same region there were shepherds out in the field, keeping watch over their flock by night. 9 And an angel of the Lord (O)appeared to them, and (P)the glory of the Lord shone around them, and they were filled with great fear. 10 And the angel said to them, “Fear not, for behold, I bring you good news of great joy that will be for all (Q)the people. 11 For (R)unto you is born this day in (S)the city of David (T)a Savior, who is (U)Christ (V)the Lord. 12 And (W)this will be a sign for you: you will find a baby (X)wrapped in swaddling cloths and lying in a manger.” 13 And suddenly there was with the angel (Y)a multitude of the heavenly host praising God and saying,
14 (Z)“Glory to God (AA)in the highest,
(AB)and on earth (AC)peace (AD)among those with whom he is pleased!”[d]
15 When the angels went away from them into heaven, the shepherds said to one another, “Let us go over to Bethlehem and see this thing that has happened, which the Lord has made known to us.” 16 And they went with haste and found Mary and Joseph, and the baby (AE)lying in a manger. 17 And when they saw it, they made known the saying that had been told them concerning this child. 18 And all who heard it wondered at what the shepherds told them. 19 But (AF)Mary treasured up all these things, pondering them in her heart. 20 And the shepherds returned, (AG)glorifying and praising God for all they had heard and seen, as it had been told them.
21 And (AH)at the end of eight days, when he was circumcised, (AI)he was called Jesus, the name given by the angel before he was conceived in the womb.
Jesus Presented at the Temple
22 And (AJ)when the time came for their purification according to the Law of Moses, they brought him up to Jerusalem (AK)to present him to the Lord 23 (as it is written in (AL)the Law of the Lord, (AM)“Every male who first opens the womb shall be called holy to the Lord”) 24 and to offer a sacrifice according to what is said in (AN)the Law of the Lord, (AO)“a pair of turtledoves, or two young pigeons.” 25 Now there was a man in Jerusalem, whose name was Simeon, and this man was (AP)righteous and (AQ)devout, (AR)waiting for (AS)the consolation of Israel, and the Holy Spirit was upon him. 26 And it had been revealed to him by the Holy Spirit that he would not (AT)see death before he had seen (AU)the Lord's Christ. 27 And he came in the Spirit into the temple, and when (AV)the parents brought in the child Jesus, to do for him according to the custom of the Law, 28 he took him up in his arms and (AW)blessed God and said,
29 “Lord, now you are letting your servant[e] depart (AX)in peace,
(AY)according to your word;
30 for (AZ)my eyes have seen your (BA)salvation
31 (BB)that you have prepared in the presence of all peoples,
32 (BC)a light for revelation to the Gentiles,
and (BD)for glory to (BE)your people Israel.”
33 And (BF)his father and his mother marveled at what was said about him. 34 And Simeon blessed them and said to Mary his mother, “Behold, this child is appointed (BG)for the fall and rising of many in Israel, and for a sign (BH)that is opposed 35 (and a sword will pierce through your own soul also), so that thoughts from many hearts may be revealed.”
36 And there was (BI)a prophetess, Anna, the daughter of Phanuel, of the tribe of Asher. She was advanced in years, having lived with her husband seven years from when she was a virgin, 37 and then as a widow until she was eighty-four.[f] She did not depart from the temple, (BJ)worshiping with (BK)fasting and prayer night and day. 38 And coming up at that very hour she began to give thanks to God and to speak of him to all who were (BL)waiting for the redemption of Jerusalem.
The Return to Nazareth
39 And when they had performed everything according to (BM)the Law of the Lord, they returned into Galilee, to their own town of (BN)Nazareth. 40 (BO)And the child grew and became strong, filled with wisdom. And the favor of God was upon him.
The Boy Jesus in the Temple
41 Now (BP)his parents went (BQ)to Jerusalem every year at (BR)the Feast of the Passover. 42 And when he was twelve years old, (BS)they went up according to custom. 43 And when the feast (BT)was ended, as they were returning, the boy Jesus stayed behind in Jerusalem. (BU)His parents did not know it, 44 but supposing him to be in the group they went a day's journey, but then they began to search for him among their relatives and acquaintances, 45 and when they did not find him, they returned to Jerusalem, searching for him. 46 After three days they found him in the temple, (BV)sitting among (BW)the teachers, listening to them and asking them questions. 47 And all who heard him were amazed at his understanding and his answers. 48 And when his parents[g] saw him, they were astonished. And his mother said to him, “Son, why have you treated us so? Behold, (BX)your father and I have been searching for you in great distress.” 49 And he said to them, “Why were you looking for me? Did you not know that (BY)I must be in (BZ)my Father's house?”[h] 50 And (CA)they did not understand the saying that he spoke to them. 51 And he went down with them and came to Nazareth and was submissive to them. And (CB)his mother treasured up all these things in her heart.
52 And Jesus (CC)increased in wisdom and in stature[i] and in (CD)favor with God and man.

De geboorte van Jezus
2 In die tijd wilde de Romeinse keizer Augustus laten tellen hoeveel mensen er in zijn hele rijk woonden. Daarom gaf hij het bevel dat iedereen zich moest laten inschrijven.[a] 2 Dit gebeurde voor de eerste keer in de tijd dat Quirinius bestuurder was van Syrië. 3 Om geteld te worden, moesten de mensen naar de stad gaan waar hun familie oorspronkelijk vandaan kwam. Daar moesten ze zich laten inschrijven.
4 Ook Jozef ging op reis. Hij reisde van de stad Nazaret in Galilea naar Betlehem in Judea. Dat was de stad waar vroeger koning David geboren was. Jozef was namelijk uit de familie van koning David. 5 Daar moest hij zich laten inschrijven, samen met Maria met wie hij was verloofd. Maria was in verwachting.
6 Toen ze daar waren aangekomen, werd het kind geboren. 7 Het was haar eerste kind, een zoon. Maria wikkelde Hem in een doek en legde Hem in een voerbak van de dieren. Want in de herberg was voor hen geen plaats.
De herders
8 Diezelfde nacht waren er buiten de stad herders in het veld. Ze hielden de wacht bij hun schapen. 9 Plotseling stond er een engel van de Heer God bij hen. De stralende aanwezigheid van God was om hen heen. Ze schrokken hevig en waren bang. 10 Maar de engel zei tegen hen: "Jullie hoeven niet bang te zijn. Want ik breng jullie goed nieuws. Dat goede nieuws is voor het hele volk: 11 Vandaag is in de stad waar vroeger koning David geboren is, de Messias geboren.[b] Hij is de Redder, de Heer. 12 Dit is voor jullie het teken dat het waar is wat ik zeg: jullie zullen een kind vinden dat in doeken is gewikkeld en in een voerbak ligt." 13 Plotseling waren er bij de engel nog heel veel meer engelen. 14 Ze prezen God en zeiden: "Prijs God in de hoogste hemel! Vrede op aarde voor de mensen waar God blij mee is!" 15 Toen gingen de engelen naar de hemel terug.
De herders zeiden tegen elkaar: "Kom, we gaan naar Betlehem! We gaan kijken naar wat de Heer God ons heeft verteld!" 16 Ze gingen haastig op weg. En ze vonden Maria en Jozef, en het kind dat in de voerbak lag. 17 Toen gingen ze aan iedereen vertellen wat de engel hun over dit kind had gezegd. 18 Iedereen was erg verbaasd over hun verhaal. 19 Maria onthield alles wat ze hadden verteld en dacht er over na in haar hart. 20 De herders gingen terug naar hun schapen en prezen en dankten God voor alles wat ze gezien en gehoord hadden. Alles was zoals de engel tegen hen had gezegd.
21 Toen het kind acht dagen oud was, werd het besneden[c] en kreeg het de naam Jezus. Dat was de naam die de engel had genoemd nog voordat Maria in verwachting raakte.
Simeon en Anna
22 Maria en Jozef deden alles wat volgens de wet van Mozes moet gebeuren als er een kind is geboren.[d] Daarna namen ze Hem mee naar Jeruzalem om Hem naar de Heer God te brengen. 23 Want in de wet staat: 'Elke eerste zoon en elk eerstgeboren dier is voor de Heer.' 24 Ook gingen ze, zoals dat moet van de wet, het offer brengen: een paar tortelduiven of twee jonge duiven.[e]
25 Er woonde in Jeruzalem een man die Simeon heette. Hij was een gelovig man die leefde zoals God het wil. Hij keek uit naar de dag dat God zijn volk Israël zou redden en troosten. De Heilige Geest was op hem. 26 En de Heilige Geest had tegen hem gezegd dat hij vóór zijn dood de Messias zou zien.
27 Die dag stuurde de Heilige Geest hem naar de tempel. Jozef en Maria brachten Jezus binnen om met Hem te doen wat ze volgens de wet van Mozes moesten doen. 28 Toen nam Simeon Jezus in zijn armen en hij prees God. 29 Hij zei: "Nu laat U, Heer, uw dienaar in vrede sterven, zoals U ook heeft gezegd. 30 Want nu heb ik Hem gezien 31 door wie U alle volken gaat redden. 32 Hij is het Licht voor alle volken. En vanwege Hem zullen de mensen het volk Israël dankbaar zijn."
33 Zijn vader en moeder waren verbaasd over de dingen die Simeon over Jezus zei. 34 Simeon zegende hen en zei tegen Maria: "Veel mensen zullen door Hem ten val komen. Maar veel andere mensen zullen juist door Hem gered worden. Hij zal een teken zijn waar veel mensen niet in zullen willen geloven. 35 Door Hem zullen zelfs de diepst verborgen gedachten van de mensen zichtbaar worden. En voor jou zal het zijn alsof er een zwaard door je hart gaat."
36 Er was daar ook een vrouw die Anna heette. Zij was een profetes, een dochter van Fanuël, uit de stam van Aser. Ze was zeven jaar getrouwd geweest. Toen was haar man gestorven, zodat ze weduwe werd. 37 Nu was ze een oude vrouw van ongeveer 84 jaar. Ze was alle dagen in de tempel. Ze diende God dag en nacht en bad zonder ophouden. 38 Op dat moment kwam zij er ook bij staan en ook zij prees God. En aan alle mensen die op de redding van Jeruzalem wachtten, vertelde ze over Hem.
39 Jozef en Maria deden alles wat ze volgens de wet van de Heer God moesten doen. Daarna gingen ze terug naar hun stad Nazaret in Galilea.
40 Het kind groeide op en werd sterk. Hij was vol wijsheid en God was in alle dingen goed voor Hem.
Jezus in de tempel
41 Jezus' ouders reisden elk jaar naar Jeruzalem om daar het Paasfeest te vieren.[f] 42 Toen Jezus twaalf jaar oud was, reisden zijn ouders weer zoals elk jaar naar Jeruzalem. 43 Na de feestdagen gingen zijn ouders weer naar huis. Maar Jezus bleef in Jeruzalem achter. Zijn ouders hadden dat niet gemerkt. 44 Ze dachten dat Hij meeliep met de andere mensen die ook naar huis terugreisden. Zo reisden ze één dag en zochten Hem intussen bij familie en kennissen. 45 Maar toen ze Hem niet vonden, gingen ze terug om Hem in Jeruzalem te zoeken.
46 Na drie dagen vonden ze Hem in de tempel. Hij zat daar tussen de wetgeleerden.[g] Hij luisterde naar hen en stelde vragen. 47 De mensen die Hem hoorden, waren verbaasd hoe verstandig Hij was. Ook verbaasden ze zich over de antwoorden die Hij gaf. 48 Toen zijn ouders Hem daar vonden, waren ze boos. Zijn moeder zei tegen Hem: "Kind, hoe kun je zoiets doen? Je vader en ik zijn zó ongerust geweest! We hebben overal naar je gezocht!" 49 Maar Hij zei tegen hen: "Waarom heeft u naar Mij gezocht? Wist u dan niet dat Ik bezig moet zijn met de dingen van mijn Vader?" 50 Maar ze begrepen niet wat Hij bedoelde. 51 Hij ging met hen mee terug naar Nazaret en was gehoorzaam aan zijn ouders. Zijn moeder onthield alles wat er gebeurd en gezegd was en dacht er over na in haar hart.
52 Terwijl Jezus opgroeide, werd Hij steeds wijzer. En God en de mensen hielden van Hem.

2 Around this time, Emperor Augustus issued an order for a census to be taken throughout the Empire. 2 This registration, the first of its kind, took place when Quirinius was governing in Syria. 3 Everyone went to be registered, each to his own town. 4 So Yosef, because he was a descendant of David, went up from the town of Natzeret in the Galil to the town of David, called Beit-Lechem, in Y’hudah, 5 to be registered, with Miryam, to whom he was engaged, and who was pregnant. 6 While they were there, the time came for her to give birth; 7 and she gave birth to her first child, a son. She wrapped him in cloth and laid him down in a feeding trough, because there was no space for them in the living-quarters.
8 In the countryside nearby were some shepherds spending the night in the fields, guarding their flocks, 9 when an angel of Adonai appeared to them, and the Sh’khinah of Adonai shone around them. They were terrified; 10 but the angel said to them, “Don’t be afraid, because I am here announcing to you Good News that will bring great joy to all the people. 11 This very day, in the town of David, there was born for you a Deliverer who is the Messiah, the Lord. 12 Here is how you will know: you will find a baby wrapped in cloth and lying in a feeding trough.” 13 Suddenly, along with the angel was a vast army from heaven praising God:
14 “In the highest heaven, glory to God!
And on earth, peace among people of good will!”
15 No sooner had the angels left them and gone back into heaven than the shepherds said to one another, “Let’s go over to Beit-Lechem and see this thing that has happened, that Adonai has told us about.” 16 Hurrying off, they came and found Miryam and Yosef, and the baby lying in the feeding trough. 17 Upon seeing this, they made known what they had been told about this child; 18 and all who heard were amazed by what the shepherds said to them. 19 Miryam treasured all these things and kept mulling them over in her heart. 20 Meanwhile, the shepherds returned, glorifying and praising God for everything they had heard and seen; it had been just as they had been told.
21 On the eighth day, when it was time for his b’rit-milah, he was given the name Yeshua, which is what the angel had called him before his conception.
22 When the time came for their purification according to the Torah of Moshe, they took him up to Yerushalayim to present him to Adonai 23 (as it is written in the Torah of Adonai, “Every firstborn male is to be consecrated to Adonai”[a]) 24 and also to offer a sacrifice of a pair of doves or two young pigeons,[b] as required by the Torah of Adonai.
25 There was in Yerushalayim a man named Shim‘on. This man was a tzaddik, he was devout, he waited eagerly for God to comfort Isra’el, and the Ruach HaKodesh was upon him. 26 It had been revealed to him by the Ruach HaKodesh that he would not die before he had seen the Messiah of Adonai. 27 Prompted by the Spirit, he went into the Temple courts; and when the parents brought in the child Yeshua to do for him what the Torah required, 28 Shim‘on took him in his arms, made a b’rakhah to God, and said,
29 “Now, Adonai, according to your word,
your servant is at peace as you let him go;
30 for I have seen with my own eyes your yeshu‘ah,
31 which you prepared in the presence of all peoples —
32 a light that will bring revelation to the Goyim
and glory to your people Isra’el.”
33 Yeshua’s father and mother were marvelling at the things Shim‘on was saying about him. 34 Shim‘on blessed them and said to the child’s mother, Miryam,
“This child will cause many in Isra’el to fall and to rise,
he will become a sign whom people will speak against;
35 moreover, a sword will pierce your own heart too.
All this will happen in order to reveal many people’s inmost thoughts.”
36 There was also a prophet named Hannah Bat-P’nu’el, of the tribe of Asher. She was a very old woman — she had lived with her husband seven years after her marriage 37 and had remained a widow ever since; now she was eighty-four. She never left the Temple grounds but worshipped there night and day, fasting and praying. 38 She came by at that moment and began thanking God and speaking about the child to everyone who was waiting for Yerushalayim to be liberated.
39 When Yosef and Miryam had finished doing everything required by the Torah of Adonai, they returned to the Galil, to their town Natzeret.
40 The child grew and became strong and filled with wisdom — God’s favor was upon him.
41 Every year Yeshua’s parents went to Yerushalayim for the festival of Pesach. 42 When he was twelve years old, they went up for the festival, as custom required. 43 But after the festival was over, when his parents returned, Yeshua remained in Yerushalayim. They didn’t realize this; 44 supposing that he was somewhere in the caravan, they spent a whole day on the road before they began searching for him among their relatives and friends. 45 Failing to find him, they returned to Yerushalayim to look for him. 46 On the third day they found him — he was sitting in the Temple court among the rabbis, not only listening to them but questioning what they said; 47 and everyone who heard him was astonished at his insight and his responses. 48 When his parents saw him, they were shocked; and his mother said to him, “Son! Why have you done this to us? Your father and I have been terribly worried looking for you!” 49 He said to them, “Why did you have to look for me? Didn’t you know that I had to be concerning myself with my Father’s affairs?” 50 But they didn’t understand what he meant.
51 So he went with them to Natzeret and was obedient to them. But his mother stored up all these things in her heart.
52 And Yeshua grew both in wisdom and in stature, gaining favor both with other people and with God.

The Birth of Jesus
2 In those days Caesar Augustus(A) issued a decree that a census should be taken of the entire Roman world.(B) 2 (This was the first census that took place while[a] Quirinius was governor of Syria.)(C) 3 And everyone went to their own town to register.
4 So Joseph also went up from the town of Nazareth in Galilee to Judea, to Bethlehem(D) the town of David, because he belonged to the house and line of David. 5 He went there to register with Mary, who was pledged to be married to him(E) and was expecting a child. 6 While they were there, the time came for the baby to be born, 7 and she gave birth to her firstborn, a son. She wrapped him in cloths and placed him in a manger, because there was no guest room available for them.
8 And there were shepherds living out in the fields nearby, keeping watch over their flocks at night. 9 An angel(F) of the Lord appeared to them, and the glory of the Lord shone around them, and they were terrified. 10 But the angel said to them, “Do not be afraid.(G) I bring you good news that will cause great joy for all the people. 11 Today in the town of David a Savior(H) has been born to you; he is the Messiah,(I) the Lord.(J) 12 This will be a sign(K) to you: You will find a baby wrapped in cloths and lying in a manger.”
13 Suddenly a great company of the heavenly host appeared with the angel, praising God and saying,
14 “Glory to God in the highest heaven,
and on earth peace(L) to those on whom his favor rests.”
15 When the angels had left them and gone into heaven, the shepherds said to one another, “Let’s go to Bethlehem and see this thing that has happened, which the Lord has told us about.”
16 So they hurried off and found Mary and Joseph, and the baby, who was lying in the manger.(M) 17 When they had seen him, they spread the word concerning what had been told them about this child, 18 and all who heard it were amazed at what the shepherds said to them. 19 But Mary treasured up all these things and pondered them in her heart.(N) 20 The shepherds returned, glorifying and praising God(O) for all the things they had heard and seen, which were just as they had been told.
21 On the eighth day, when it was time to circumcise the child,(P) he was named Jesus, the name the angel had given him before he was conceived.(Q)
Jesus Presented in the Temple
22 When the time came for the purification rites required by the Law of Moses,(R) Joseph and Mary took him to Jerusalem to present him to the Lord 23 (as it is written in the Law of the Lord, “Every firstborn male is to be consecrated to the Lord”[b]),(S) 24 and to offer a sacrifice in keeping with what is said in the Law of the Lord: “a pair of doves or two young pigeons.”[c](T)
25 Now there was a man in Jerusalem called Simeon, who was righteous and devout.(U) He was waiting for the consolation of Israel,(V) and the Holy Spirit was on him. 26 It had been revealed to him by the Holy Spirit that he would not die before he had seen the Lord’s Messiah. 27 Moved by the Spirit, he went into the temple courts. When the parents brought in the child Jesus to do for him what the custom of the Law required,(W) 28 Simeon took him in his arms and praised God, saying:
29 “Sovereign Lord, as you have promised,(X)
you may now dismiss[d] your servant in peace.(Y)
30 For my eyes have seen your salvation,(Z)
31 which you have prepared in the sight of all nations:
32 a light for revelation to the Gentiles,
and the glory of your people Israel.”(AA)
33 The child’s father and mother marveled at what was said about him. 34 Then Simeon blessed them and said to Mary, his mother:(AB) “This child is destined to cause the falling(AC) and rising of many in Israel, and to be a sign that will be spoken against, 35 so that the thoughts of many hearts will be revealed. And a sword will pierce your own soul too.”
36 There was also a prophet,(AD) Anna, the daughter of Penuel, of the tribe of Asher. She was very old; she had lived with her husband seven years after her marriage, 37 and then was a widow until she was eighty-four.[e](AE) She never left the temple but worshiped night and day, fasting and praying.(AF) 38 Coming up to them at that very moment, she gave thanks to God and spoke about the child to all who were looking forward to the redemption of Jerusalem.(AG)
39 When Joseph and Mary had done everything required by the Law of the Lord, they returned to Galilee to their own town of Nazareth.(AH) 40 And the child grew and became strong; he was filled with wisdom, and the grace of God was on him.(AI)
The Boy Jesus at the Temple
41 Every year Jesus’ parents went to Jerusalem for the Festival of the Passover.(AJ) 42 When he was twelve years old, they went up to the festival, according to the custom. 43 After the festival was over, while his parents were returning home, the boy Jesus stayed behind in Jerusalem, but they were unaware of it. 44 Thinking he was in their company, they traveled on for a day. Then they began looking for him among their relatives and friends. 45 When they did not find him, they went back to Jerusalem to look for him. 46 After three days they found him in the temple courts, sitting among the teachers, listening to them and asking them questions. 47 Everyone who heard him was amazed(AK) at his understanding and his answers. 48 When his parents saw him, they were astonished. His mother(AL) said to him, “Son, why have you treated us like this? Your father(AM) and I have been anxiously searching for you.”
49 “Why were you searching for me?” he asked. “Didn’t you know I had to be in my Father’s house?”[f](AN) 50 But they did not understand what he was saying to them.(AO)
51 Then he went down to Nazareth with them(AP) and was obedient to them. But his mother treasured all these things in her heart.(AQ) 52 And Jesus grew in wisdom and stature, and in favor with God and man.(AR)
