Lukas 2

¹Pada waktu itu Kaisar Agustus mengeluarkan suatu perintah, menyuruh mendaftarkan semua orang di seluruh dunia.

¹In those days a decree went out from Caesar Augustus that all the world should be registered.

²Inilah pendaftaran yang pertama kali diadakan sewaktu Kirenius menjadi wali negeri di Siria.

²This was the first registration when Quirinius was governor of Syria.

³Maka pergilah semua orang mendaftarkan diri, masing-masing di kotanya sendiri.

³And all went to be registered, each to his own town.

⁴Demikian juga Yusuf pergi dari kota Nazaret di Galilea ke Yudea, ke kota Daud yang bernama Betlehem, --karena ia berasal dari keluarga dan keturunan Daud--

⁴And Joseph also went up from Galilee, from the town of Nazareth, to Judea, to the city of David, which is called Bethlehem, because he was of the house and lineage of David,

⁵supaya didaftarkan bersama-sama dengan Maria, tunangannya, yang sedang mengandung.

⁵to be registered with Mary, his betrothed, who was with child.

⁶Ketika mereka di situ tibalah waktunya bagi Maria untuk bersalin,

⁶And while they were there, the time came for her to give birth.

⁷dan ia melahirkan seorang anak laki-laki, anaknya yang sulung, lalu dibungkusnya dengan lampin dan dibaringkannya di dalam palungan, karena tidak ada tempat bagi mereka di rumah penginapan.

⁷And she gave birth to her firstborn son and wrapped him in swaddling cloths and laid him in a manger, because there was no place for them in the inn.

⁸Di daerah itu ada gembala-gembala yang tinggal di padang menjaga kawanan ternak mereka pada waktu malam.

⁸And in the same region there were shepherds out in the field, keeping watch over their flock by night.

⁹Tiba-tiba berdirilah seorang malaikat Tuhan di dekat mereka dan kemuliaan Tuhan bersinar meliputi mereka dan mereka sangat ketakutan.

⁹And an angel of the Lord appeared to them, and the glory of the Lord shone around them, and they were filled with fear.

¹⁰Lalu kata malaikat itu kepada mereka: "Jangan takut, sebab sesungguhnya aku memberitakan kepadamu kesukaan besar untuk seluruh bangsa:

¹⁰And the angel said to them, "Fear not, for behold, I bring you good news of a great joy that will be for all the people.

¹¹Hari ini telah lahir bagimu Juruselamat, yaitu Kristus, Tuhan, di kota Daud.

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

¹²Dan inilah tandanya bagimu: Kamu akan menjumpai seorang bayi dibungkus dengan lampin dan terbaring di dalam palungan."

¹²And this will be a sign for you: you will find a baby wrapped in swaddling cloths and lying in a manger."

¹³Dan tiba-tiba tampaklah bersama-sama dengan malaikat itu sejumlah besar bala tentara sorga yang memuji Allah, katanya:

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

¹⁴"Kemuliaan bagi Allah di tempat yang mahatinggi dan damai sejahtera di bumi di antara manusia yang berkenan kepada-Nya."

¹⁴"Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace among those with whom he is pleased!"

¹⁵Setelah malaikat-malaikat itu meninggalkan mereka dan kembali ke sorga, gembala-gembala itu berkata seorang kepada yang lain: "Marilah kita pergi ke Betlehem untuk melihat apa yang terjadi di sana, seperti yang diberitahukan Tuhan kepada kita."

¹⁵When 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."

¹⁶Lalu mereka cepat-cepat berangkat dan menjumpai Maria dan Yusuf dan bayi itu, yang sedang berbaring di dalam palungan.

¹⁶And they went with haste and found Mary and Joseph, and the baby lying in a manger.

¹⁷Dan ketika mereka melihat-Nya, mereka memberitahukan apa yang telah dikatakan kepada mereka tentang Anak itu.

¹⁷And when they saw it, they made known the saying that had been told them concerning this child.

¹⁸Dan semua orang yang mendengarnya heran tentang apa yang dikatakan gembala-gembala itu kepada mereka.

¹⁸And all who heard it wondered at what the shepherds told them.

¹⁹Tetapi Maria menyimpan segala perkara itu di dalam hatinya dan merenungkannya.

¹⁹But Mary treasured up all these things, pondering them in her heart.

²⁰Maka kembalilah gembala-gembala itu sambil memuji dan memuliakan Allah karena segala sesuatu yang mereka dengar dan mereka lihat, semuanya sesuai dengan apa yang telah dikatakan kepada mereka.

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

²¹Dan ketika genap delapan hari dan Ia harus disunatkan, Ia diberi nama Yesus, yaitu nama yang disebut oleh malaikat sebelum Ia dikandung ibu-Nya.

²¹And at the end of eight days, when he was circumcised, he was called Jesus, the name given by the angel before he was conceived in the womb.

²²Dan ketika genap waktu pentahiran, menurut hukum Taurat Musa, mereka membawa Dia ke Yerusalem untuk menyerahkan-Nya kepada Tuhan,

²²And when the time came for their purification according to the Law of Moses, they brought him up to Jerusalem to present him to the Lord

²³seperti ada tertulis dalam hukum Tuhan: "Semua anak laki-laki sulung harus dikuduskan bagi Allah",

²³(as it is written in the Law of the Lord, "Every male who first opens the womb shall be called holy to the Lord")

²⁴dan untuk mempersembahkan korban menurut apa yang difirmankan dalam hukum Tuhan, yaitu sepasang burung tekukur atau dua ekor anak burung merpati.

²⁴and to offer a sacrifice according to what is said in the Law of the Lord, "a pair of turtledoves, or two young pigeons."

²⁵Adalah di Yerusalem seorang bernama Simeon. Ia seorang yang benar dan saleh yang menantikan penghiburan bagi Israel. Roh Kudus ada di atasnya,

²⁵Now there was a man in Jerusalem, whose name was Simeon, and this man was righteous and devout, waiting for the consolation of Israel, and the Holy Spirit was upon him.

²⁶dan kepadanya telah dinyatakan oleh Roh Kudus, bahwa ia tidak akan mati sebelum ia melihat Mesias, yaitu Dia yang diurapi Tuhan.

²⁶And it had been revealed to him by the Holy Spirit that he would not see death before he had seen the Lord's Christ.

²⁷Ia datang ke Bait Allah oleh Roh Kudus. Ketika Yesus, Anak itu, dibawa masuk oleh orang tua-Nya untuk melakukan kepada-Nya apa yang ditentukan hukum Taurat,

²⁷And he came in the Spirit into the temple, and when the parents brought in the child Jesus, to do for him according to the custom of the Law,

²⁸ia menyambut Anak itu dan menatang-Nya sambil memuji Allah, katanya:

²⁸he took him up in his arms and blessed God and said,

²⁹"Sekarang, Tuhan, biarkanlah hamba-Mu ini pergi dalam damai sejahtera, sesuai dengan firman-Mu,

²⁹"Lord, now you are letting your servant depart in peace, according to your word;

³⁰sebab mataku telah melihat keselamatan yang dari pada-Mu,

³⁰for my eyes have seen your salvation

³¹yang telah Engkau sediakan di hadapan segala bangsa,

³¹that you have prepared in the presence of all peoples,

³²yaitu terang yang menjadi penyataan bagi bangsa-bangsa lain dan menjadi kemuliaan bagi umat-Mu, Israel."

³²a light for revelation to the Gentiles, and for glory to your people Israel."

³³Dan bapa serta ibu-Nya amat heran akan segala apa yang dikatakan tentang Dia.

³³And his father and his mother marveled at what was said about him.

³⁴Lalu Simeon memberkati mereka dan berkata kepada Maria, ibu Anak itu: "Sesungguhnya Anak ini ditentukan untuk menjatuhkan atau membangkitkan banyak orang di Israel dan untuk menjadi suatu tanda yang menimbulkan perbantahan

³⁴And Simeon blessed them and said to Mary his mother, "Behold, this child is appointed for the fall and rising of many in Israel, and for a sign that is opposed

³⁵--dan suatu pedang akan menembus jiwamu sendiri--,supaya menjadi nyata pikiran hati banyak orang."

³⁵(and a sword will pierce through your own soul also), so that thoughts from many hearts may be revealed."

³⁶Lagipula di situ ada Hana, seorang nabi perempuan, anak Fanuel dari suku Asyer. Ia sudah sangat lanjut umurnya. Sesudah kawin ia hidup tujuh tahun lamanya bersama suaminya,

³⁶And there was 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,

³⁷dan sekarang ia janda dan berumur delapan puluh empat tahun. Ia tidak pernah meninggalkan Bait Allah dan siang malam beribadah dengan berpuasa dan berdoa.

³⁷and then as a widow until she was eighty-four. She did not depart from the temple, worshiping with fasting and prayer night and day.

³⁸Dan pada ketika itu juga datanglah ia ke situ dan mengucap syukur kepada Allah dan berbicara tentang Anak itu kepada semua orang yang menantikan kelepasan untuk Yerusalem.

³⁸And coming up at that very hour she began to give thanks to God and to speak of him to all who were waiting for the redemption of Jerusalem.

³⁹Dan setelah selesai semua yang harus dilakukan menurut hukum Tuhan, kembalilah mereka ke kota kediamannya, yaitu kota Nazaret di Galilea.

³⁹And when they had performed everything according to the Law of the Lord, they returned into Galilee, to their own town of Nazareth.

⁴⁰Anak itu bertambah besar dan menjadi kuat, penuh hikmat, dan kasih karunia Allah ada pada-Nya.

⁴⁰And the child grew and became strong, filled with wisdom. And the favor of God was upon him.

⁴¹Tiap-tiap tahun orang tua Yesus pergi ke Yerusalem pada hari raya Paskah.

⁴¹Now his parents went to Jerusalem every year at the Feast of the Passover.

⁴²Ketika Yesus telah berumur dua belas tahun pergilah mereka ke Yerusalem seperti yang lazim pada hari raya itu.

⁴²And when he was twelve years old, they went up according to custom.

⁴³Sehabis hari-hari perayaan itu, ketika mereka berjalan pulang, tinggallah Yesus di Yerusalem tanpa diketahui orang tua-Nya.

⁴³And when the feast was ended, as they were returning, the boy Jesus stayed behind in Jerusalem. His parents did not know it,

⁴⁴Karena mereka menyangka bahwa Ia ada di antara orang-orang seperjalanan mereka, berjalanlah mereka sehari perjalanan jauhnya, lalu mencari Dia di antara kaum keluarga dan kenalan mereka.

⁴⁴but 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,

⁴⁵Karena mereka tidak menemukan Dia, kembalilah mereka ke Yerusalem sambil terus mencari Dia.

⁴⁵and when they did not find him, they returned to Jerusalem, searching for him.

⁴⁶Sesudah tiga hari mereka menemukan Dia dalam Bait Allah; Ia sedang duduk di tengah-tengah alim ulama, sambil mendengarkan mereka dan mengajukan pertanyaan-pertanyaan kepada mereka.

⁴⁶After three days they found him in the temple, sitting among the teachers, listening to them and asking them questions.

⁴⁷Dan semua orang yang mendengar Dia sangat heran akan kecerdasan-Nya dan segala jawab yang diberikan-Nya.

⁴⁷And all who heard him were amazed at his understanding and his answers.

⁴⁸Dan ketika orang tua-Nya melihat Dia, tercenganglah mereka, lalu kata ibu-Nya kepada-Nya: "Nak, mengapakah Engkau berbuat demikian terhadap kami? Bapa-Mu dan aku dengan cemas mencari Engkau."

⁴⁸And when his parents saw him, they were astonished. And his mother said to him, "Son, why have you treated us so? Behold, your father and I have been searching for you in great distress."

⁴⁹Jawab-Nya kepada mereka: "Mengapa kamu mencari Aku? Tidakkah kamu tahu, bahwa Aku harus berada di dalam rumah Bapa-Ku?"

⁴⁹And he said to them, "Why were you looking for me? Did you not know that I must be in my Father's house?"

⁵⁰Tetapi mereka tidak mengerti apa yang dikatakan-Nya kepada mereka.

⁵⁰And they did not understand the saying that he spoke to them.

⁵¹Lalu Ia pulang bersama-sama mereka ke Nazaret; dan Ia tetap hidup dalam asuhan mereka. Dan ibu-Nya menyimpan semua perkara itu di dalam hatinya.

⁵¹And he went down with them and came to Nazareth and was submissive to them. And his mother treasured up all these things in her heart.

⁵²Dan Yesus makin bertambah besar dan bertambah hikmat-Nya dan besar-Nya, dan makin dikasihi oleh Allah dan manusia.

⁵²And Jesus increased in wisdom and in stature and in favor with God and man.
