路加所著的耶稣传记——第2章

当那些日子,该撒亚古士督有旨意下来,叫天下人民都报名上册。 (2:1) 这是居里扭作叙利亚巡抚的时候,头一次行报名上册的事。 (2:2) 众人各归各城,报名上册。 (2:3) 约瑟也从加利利的拿撒勒城上犹太去,到了大卫的城,名叫伯利恒,因他本是大卫一族一家的人。 (2:4) 要和他所聘之妻马利亚,一同报名上册。那时马利亚的身孕已经重了。 (2:5) 他们在那里的时候,马利亚的产期到了。 (2:6) 就生了头胎的儿子,用布包起来,放在马槽里,因为客店里没有地方。 (2:7) 在伯利恒之野地里有牧羊的人,夜间按着更次看守羊群。 (2:8) 有主的使者站在他们旁边,主的荣光四面照着他们。牧羊的人就甚惧怕。 (2:9) 那天使对他们说,不要惧怕,我报给你们大喜的信息,是关乎万民的。 (2:10) 因今天在大卫的城里,为你们生了救主,就是主基督。 (2:11) 你们要看见一个婴孩,包着布,卧在马槽里,那就是记号了。 (2:12) 忽然有一大队天兵,同那天使赞美神说, (2:13) 在至高之处荣耀归与神,在地上平安归与他所喜悦的人。(有古卷作喜悦归与人)。 (2:14) 众天使离开他们升天去了,牧羊的人彼此说,我们往伯利恒去,看看所成的事,就是主所指示我们的。 (2:15) 他们急忙去了,就寻见马利亚和约瑟,又有那婴孩卧在马槽里。 (2:16) 既然看见,就把天使论这孩子的话传开了。 (2:17) 凡听见的,就诧异牧羊之人对他们所说的话。 (2:18) 马利亚却把这一切的事存在心里,反复思想。 (2:19) 牧羊的人回去了,因所听见所看见的一切事,正如天使向他们所说的,就归荣耀与神,赞美他。 (2:20) 满了八天,就给孩子行割礼,与他起名叫耶稣,这就是没有成胎以前,天使所起的名。 (2:21) 按摩西律法满了洁净的日子,他们带着孩子上耶路撒冷去,要把他献与主。 (2:22) (正如主的律法上所记,凡头生的男子,必称圣归主。) (2:23) 又要照主的律法上所说,或用一对班鸠,或用两只雏鸽献祭。 (2:24) 在耶路撒冷有一个人名叫西面,这人又公义又虔诚,素常盼望以色列的安慰者来到,又有圣灵在他身上。 (2:25) 他得了圣灵的启示,知道自己未死以前,必看见主所立的基督。 (2:26) 他受了圣灵的感动,进入圣殿。正遇见耶稣的父母抱着孩子进来,要照律法的规矩办理。 (2:27) 西面就用手接过他来,称颂神说, (2:28) 主阿,如今可以照你的话,释放仆人安然去世。 (2:29) 因为我的眼睛已经看见你的救恩。 (2:30) 就是你在万民面前所预备的。 (2:31) 是照亮外邦人的光,又是你民以色列的荣耀。 (2:32) 孩子的父母,因这论耶稣的话就希奇。 (2:33) 西面给他们祝福,又对孩子的母亲马利亚说,这孩子被立,是要叫以色列中许多人跌倒,许多人兴起。又要作毁谤的话柄。叫许多人心里的意念显露出来。你自己的心也要被刀刺透。 (2:34) (2:35) 又有女先知名叫亚拿,是亚设支派法内力的女儿,年纪已经老迈,从作童女出嫁的时候,同丈夫住了七年,就寡居了。 (2:36) 现在已经八十四岁,(或作就寡居了八十四年)并不离开圣殿,禁食祈求,昼夜事奉神。 (2:37) 正当那时,她进前来称谢神,将孩子的事,对一切盼望耶路撒冷得救赎的人讲说。 (2:38) 约瑟和马利亚,照主的律法,办完了一切的事,就回加利利,到自己的城拿撒勒去了。 (2:39) 孩子渐渐长大,强健起来,充满智慧。又有神的恩在他身上。 (2:40) 每年到逾越节,他父母就上耶路撒冷去。 (2:41) 当他十二岁的时候,他们按着节期的规矩上去。 (2:42) 守满了节期,他们回去,孩童耶稣仍旧在耶路撒冷。他的父母并不知道。 (2:43) 以为他在同行的人中间,走了一天的路程,就在亲族和熟识的人中找他。 (2:44) 既找不着,就回耶路撒冷去找他。 (2:45) 过了三天,就遇见他在殿里,坐在教师中间,一面听,一面问。 (2:46) 凡听见他的,都希奇他的聪明,和他的应对。 (2:47) 他父母看见就很希奇。他母亲对他说,我儿,为什么向我们这样行呢?看哪,你父亲和我伤心来找你。 (2:48) 耶稣说,为什么找我呢?岂不知我应当以我父的事为念吗?(或作岂不知我应当在我父的家里吗) (2:49) 他所说的这话,他们不明白。 (2:50) 他就同他们下去,回到拿撒勒。并且顺从他们。他母亲把这一切的事都存在心里。 (2:51) 耶稣的智慧和身量,(身量或作年纪)并神和人喜爱他的心,都一齐增长。 (2:52)

Luke 2

The Birth of Jesus

Now it happened in those days, that a decree went out from Caesar Augustus that all the world should be enrolled. This was the first enrollment made when Quirinius was governor of Syria. All went to enroll themselves, everyone to his own city. 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 enroll himself with Mary, who was pledged to be married to him as wife, being pregnant.
It happened, while they were there, that the day had come that she should give birth. She brought forth her firstborn son, and she wrapped him in bands of cloth, and laid him in a feeding trough, because there was no room for them in the inn.


The Shepherds and the Angels

There were shepherds in the same country staying in the field, and keeping watch by night over their flock. Behold, an angel of the Lord stood by them, and the glory of the Lord shone around them, and they were terrified. The angel said to them, "Don't be afraid, for behold, I bring you good news of great joy which will be to all the people. For there is born to you, this day, in the city of David, a Savior, who is Christ the Lord. This is the sign to you: you will find a baby wrapped in strips of cloth, lying in a feeding trough." Suddenly, there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly army praising God, and saying,
"Glory to God in the highest,
on earth peace, good will toward men."
It happened, when the angels went away from them into the sky, that the shepherds said one to another, "Let's go to Bethlehem, now, and see this thing that has happened, which the Lord has made known to us." They came with haste, and found both Mary and Joseph, and the baby was lying in the feeding trough. When they saw it, they publicized widely the saying which was spoken to them about this child. All who heard it wondered at the things which were spoken to them by the shepherds. But Mary kept all these sayings, pondering them in her heart. The shepherds returned, glorifying and praising God for all the things that they had heard and seen, just as it was told them.

Jesus Presented in the Temple

When eight days were fulfilled for the circumcision of the child, his name was called Jesus, which was given by the angel before he was conceived in the womb.
When the days of their purification according to the law of Moses were fulfilled, they brought him up to Jerusalem, to present him to the Lord (as it is written in the law of the Lord, "Every male who opens the womb shall be called holy to the Lord"), and to offer a sacrifice according to that which is said in the law of the Lord, "A pair of turtledoves, or two young pigeons."
Behold, there was a man in Jerusalem whose name was Simeon. This man was righteous and devout, looking for the consolation of Israel, and the Holy Spirit was on him. It had been revealed to him by the Holy Spirit that he should not see death before he had seen the Lord's Christ. He came in the Spirit into the temple. When the parents brought in the child, Jesus, that they might do concerning him according to the custom of the law, then he received him into his arms, and blessed God, and said,
"Now you are releasing your servant, Master,
according to your word, in peace;
for my eyes have seen your salvation,
which you have prepared before the face of all peoples;
a light for revelation to the nations,
and the glory of your people Israel."
Joseph and his mother were marveling at the things which were spoken concerning him, and Simeon blessed them, and said to Mary, his mother, "Behold, this child is set for the falling and the rising of many in Israel, and for a sign which is spoken against. Yes, a sword will pierce through your own soul, that the thoughts of many hearts may be revealed."
There was one Anna, a prophetess, the daughter of Phanuel, of the tribe of Asher (she was of a great age, having lived with a husband seven years from her virginity, and she had been a widow for about eighty-four years), who didn't depart from the temple, worshipping with fastings and petitions night and day. Coming up at that very hour, she gave thanks to the Lord, and spoke of him to all those who were looking for redemption in Jerusalem.
When they had accomplished all things that were according to the law of the Lord, they returned into Galilee, to their own city, Nazareth. The child was growing, and was becoming strong in spirit, being filled with wisdom, and the grace of God was upon him.

The Boy Jesus at the Temple

His parents went every year to Jerusalem at the feast of the Passover.
When he was twelve years old, they went up to Jerusalem according to the custom of the feast, and when they had fulfilled the days, as they were returning, the boy Jesus stayed behind in Jerusalem. Joseph and his mother didn't know it, but supposing him to be in the company, they went a day's journey, and they looked for him among their relatives and acquaintances. When they didn't find him, they returned to Jerusalem, looking for him. It happened after three days they found him in the temple, sitting in the midst of the teachers, both listening to them, and asking them questions. All who heard him were amazed at his understanding and his answers. When they saw him, they were astonished, and his mother said to him, "Son, why have you treated us this way? Behold, your father and I were anxiously looking for you."
He said to them, "Why were you looking for me? Didn't you know that I must be in my Father's house?" They didn't understand the saying which he spoke to them. And he went down with them, and came to Nazareth. He was subject to them, and his mother kept all these sayings in her heart. And Jesus increased in wisdom and stature, and in favor with God and men.
