Luke 2
1 Now it happened in those days, that a decree went out from Caesar Augustus that the whole empire should be enrolled.
| وَفِي تِلْكَ ٱلْأَيَّامِ صَدَرَ أَمْرٌ مِنْ أُوغُسْطُسَ قَيْصَرَ بِأَنْ يُكْتَتَبَ كُلُّ ٱلْمَسْكُونَةِ. | ١ |
2 This was the first enrollment made when Quirinius was governor of Syria.
| وَهَذَا ٱلِٱكْتِتَابُ ٱلْأَوَّلُ جَرَى إِذْ كَانَ كِيرِينِيُوسُ وَالِيَ سُورِيَّةَ. | ٢ |
3 All went to enroll themselves, everyone to his own city.
| فَذَهَبَ ٱلْجَمِيعُ لِيُكْتَتَبُوا، كُلُّ وَاحِدٍ إِلَى مَدِينَتِهِ. | ٣ |
4 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;
| فَصَعِدَ يُوسُفُ أَيْضًا مِنَ ٱلْجَلِيلِ مِنْ مَدِينَةِ ٱلنَّاصِرَةِ إِلَى ٱلْيَهُودِيَّةِ، إِلَى مَدِينَةِ دَاوُدَ ٱلَّتِي تُدْعَى بَيْتَ لَحْمٍ، لِكَوْنِهِ مِنْ بَيْتِ دَاوُدَ وَعَشِيرَتِهِ، | ٤ |
5 to enroll himself with Mary, who was pledged to be married to him, being pregnant.
| لِيُكْتَتَبَ مَعَ مَرْيَمَ ٱمْرَأَتِهِ ٱلْمَخْطُوبَةِ وَهِيَ حُبْلَى. | ٥ |
6 It happened, while they were there, that the day had come that she should give birth.
| وَبَيْنَمَا هُمَا هُنَاكَ تَمَّتْ أَيَّامُهَا لِتَلِدَ. | ٦ |
7 And she gave birth to her firstborn son, and wrapped him with pieces of cloth, and placed him in a feeding trough, because there was no guest room available for them.
| فَوَلَدَتِ ٱبْنَهَا ٱلْبِكْرَ وَقَمَّطَتْهُ وَأَضْجَعَتْهُ فِي ٱلْمِذْوَدِ، إِذْ لَمْ يَكُنْ لَهُمَا مَوْضِعٌ فِي ٱلْمَنْزِلِ. | ٧ |
8 There were shepherds in the same country staying in the field, and keeping watch by night over their flock.
| وَكَانَ فِي تِلْكَ ٱلْكُورَةِ رُعَاةٌ مُتَبَدِّينَ يَحْرُسُونَ حِرَاسَاتِ ٱللَّيْلِ عَلَى رَعِيَّتِهِمْ، | ٨ |
9 And look, an angel of the Lord stood by them, and the glory of the Lord shone around them, and they were terrified.
| وَإِذَا مَلَاكُ ٱلرَّبِّ وَقَفَ بِهِمْ، وَمَجْدُ ٱلرَّبِّ أَضَاءَ حَوْلَهُمْ، فَخَافُوا خَوْفًا عَظِيمًا. | ٩ |
10 The angel said to them, "Do not be afraid, for see, I bring you good news of great joy which will be to all the people.
| فَقَالَ لَهُمُ ٱلْمَلَاكُ: «لَا تَخَافُوا! فَهَا أَنَا أُبَشِّرُكُمْ بِفَرَحٍ عَظِيمٍ يَكُونُ لِجَمِيعِ ٱلشَّعْبِ: | ١٠ |
11 For there is born to you, this day, in the city of David, a Savior, who is Christ, the Lord.
| أَنَّهُ وُلِدَ لَكُمُ ٱلْيَوْمَ فِي مَدِينَةِ دَاوُدَ مُخَلِّصٌ هُوَ ٱلْمَسِيحُ ٱلرَّبُّ. | ١١ |
12 This is the sign to you: you will find a baby wrapped in strips of cloth, lying in a feeding trough."
| وَهَذِهِ لَكُمُ ٱلْعَلَامَةُ: تَجِدُونَ طِفْلًا مُقَمَّطًا مُضْجَعًا فِي مِذْوَدٍ». | ١٢ |
13 Suddenly, there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly army praising God, and saying,
| وَظَهَرَ بَغْتَةً مَعَ ٱلْمَلَاكِ جُمْهُورٌ مِنَ ٱلْجُنْدِ ٱلسَّمَاوِيِّ مُسَبِّحِينَ ٱللهَ وَقَائِلِينَ: | ١٣ |
14 "Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good will toward humankind."
| «ٱلْمَجْدُ لِلهِ فِي ٱلْأَعَالِي، وَعَلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ ٱلسَّلَامُ، وَبِالنَّاسِ ٱلْمَسَرَّةُ». | ١٤ |
15 And it happened that when the angels went away from them into the sky, the shepherds said one to another, "Let us go to Bethlehem, now, and see this thing that has happened, which the Lord has made known to us."
| وَلَمَّا مَضَتْ عَنْهُمُ ٱلْمَلَائِكَةُ إِلَى ٱلسَّمَاءِ، قَالَ ٱلرِّجَالُ ٱلرُّعَاةُ بَعْضُهُمْ لِبَعْضٍ: «لِنَذْهَبِ ٱلْآنَ إِلَى بَيْتِ لَحْمٍ وَنَنْظُرْ هَذَا ٱلْأَمْرَ ٱلْوَاقِعَ ٱلَّذِي أَعْلَمَنَا بِهِ ٱلرَّبُّ». | ١٥ |
16 They came with haste, and found both Mary and Joseph, and the baby was lying in the feeding trough.
| فَجَاءُوا مُسْرِعِينَ، وَوَجَدُوا مَرْيَمَ وَيُوسُفَ وَٱلطِّفْلَ مُضْجَعًا فِي ٱلْمِذْوَدِ. | ١٦ |
17 When they saw it, they made known the saying which was spoken to them about this child.
| فَلَمَّا رَأَوْهُ أَخْبَرُوا بِٱلْكَلَامِ ٱلَّذِي قِيلَ لَهُمْ عَنْ هَذَا ٱلصَّبِيِّ. | ١٧ |
18 All who heard it wondered at the things which were spoken to them by the shepherds.
| وَكُلُّ ٱلَّذِينَ سَمِعُوا تَعَجَّبُوا مِمَّا قِيلَ لَهُمْ مِنَ ٱلرُّعَاةِ. | ١٨ |
19 But Mary kept all these sayings, pondering them in her heart.
| وَأَمَّا مَرْيَمُ فَكَانَتْ تَحْفَظُ جَمِيعَ هَذَا ٱلْكَلَامِ مُتَفَكِّرَةً بِهِ فِي قَلْبِهَا. | ١٩ |
20 The shepherds returned, glorifying and praising God for all the things that they had heard and seen, just as it was told them.
| ثُمَّ رَجَعَ ٱلرُّعَاةُ وَهُمْ يُمَجِّدُونَ ٱللهَ وَيُسَبِّحُونَهُ عَلَى كُلِّ مَا سَمِعُوهُ وَرَأَوْهُ كَمَا قِيلَ لَهُمْ. | ٢٠ |
21 When eight days were fulfilled to circumcise him, his name was called Jesus, which was given by the angel before he was conceived in the womb.
| وَلَمَّا تَمَّتْ ثَمَانِيَةُ أَيَّامٍ لِيَخْتِنُوا ٱلصَّبِيَّ سُمِّيَ يَسُوعَ، كَمَا تَسَمَّى مِنَ ٱلْمَلَاكِ قَبْلَ أَنْ حُبِلَ بِهِ فِي ٱلْبَطْنِ. | ٢١ |
22 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
| وَلَمَّا تَمَّتْ أَيَّامُ تَطْهِيرِهَا، حَسَبَ شَرِيعَةِ مُوسَى، صَعِدُوا بِهِ إِلَى أُورُشَلِيمَ لِيُقَدِّمُوهُ لِلرَّبِّ، | ٢٢ |
23 (as it is written in the Law of the Lord, "Every male who opens the womb will be called holy to the Lord"),
| كَمَا هُوَ مَكْتُوبٌ فِي نَامُوسِ ٱلرَّبِّ: أَنَّ كُلَّ ذَكَرٍ فَاتِحَ رَحِمٍ يُدْعَى قُدُّوسًا لِلرَّبِّ. | ٢٣ |
24 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."
| وَلِكَيْ يُقَدِّمُوا ذَبِيحَةً كَمَا قِيلَ فِي نَامُوسِ ٱلرَّبِّ: زَوْجَ يَمَامٍ أَوْ فَرْخَيْ حَمَامٍ. | ٢٤ |
25 And look, 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.
| وَكَانَ رَجُلٌ فِي أُورُشَلِيمَ ٱسْمُهُ سِمْعَانُ، وَهَذَا ٱلرَّجُلُ كَانَ بَارًّا تَقِيًّا يَنْتَظِرُ تَعْزِيَةَ إِسْرَائِيلَ، وَٱلرُّوحُ ٱلْقُدُسُ كَانَ عَلَيْهِ. | ٢٥ |
26 It had been revealed to him by the Holy Spirit that he should not see death before he had seen the Lord's Christ.
| وَكَانَ قَدْ أُوحِيَ إِلَيْهِ بِٱلرُّوحِ ٱلْقُدُسِ أَنَّهُ لَا يَرَى ٱلْمَوْتَ قَبْلَ أَنْ يَرَى مَسِيحَ ٱلرَّبِّ. | ٢٦ |
27 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 requirement of the Law,
| فَأَتَى بِٱلرُّوحِ إِلَى ٱلْهَيْكَلِ. وَعِنْدَمَا دَخَلَ بِٱلصَّبِيِّ يَسُوعَ أَبَوَاهُ، لِيَصْنَعَا لَهُ حَسَبَ عَادَةِ ٱلنَّامُوسِ، | ٢٧ |
28 then he received him into his arms, and blessed God, and said,
| أَخَذَهُ عَلَى ذِرَاعَيْهِ وَبَارَكَ ٱللهَ وَقَالَ: | ٢٨ |
29 "Now you are releasing your servant, Lord, according to your word, in peace;
| «ٱلْآنَ تُطْلِقُ عَبْدَكَ يَا سَيِّدُ حَسَبَ قَوْلِكَ بِسَلَامٍ، | ٢٩ |
30 for my eyes have seen your salvation,
| لِأَنَّ عَيْنَيَّ قَدْ أَبْصَرَتَا خَلَاصَكَ، | ٣٠ |
31 which you have prepared before the face of all peoples;
| ٱلَّذِي أَعْدَدْتَهُ قُدَّامَ وَجْهِ جَمِيعِ ٱلشُّعُوبِ. | ٣١ |
32 a light for revelation to the nations, and the glory of your people Israel."
| نُورَ إِعْلَانٍ لِلْأُمَمِ، وَمَجْدًا لِشَعْبِكَ إِسْرَائِيلَ». | ٣٢ |
33 And his father and his mother were marveling at the things which were spoken concerning him,
| وَكَانَ يُوسُفُ وَأُمُّهُ يَتَعَجَّبَانِ مِمَّا قِيلَ فِيهِ. | ٣٣ |
34 and Simeon blessed them, and said to Mary, his mother, "Look, this child is set for the falling and the rising of many in Israel, and for a sign which is spoken against.
| وَبَارَكَهُمَا سِمْعَانُ، وَقَالَ لِمَرْيَمَ أُمِّهِ: «هَا إِنَّ هَذَا قَدْ وُضِعَ لِسُقُوطِ وَقِيَامِ كَثِيرِينَ فِي إِسْرَائِيلَ، وَلِعَلَامَةٍ تُقَاوَمُ. | ٣٤ |
35 Yes, a sword will pierce through your own soul, that the thoughts of many hearts may be revealed."
| وَأَنْتِ أَيْضًا يَجُوزُ فِي نَفْسِكِ سَيْفٌ، لِتُعْلَنَ أَفْكَارٌ مِنْ قُلُوبٍ كَثِيرَةٍ». | ٣٥ |
36 There was one Anna, a prophetess, the daughter of Penuel, of the tribe of Asher (she was of a great age, having lived with a husband seven years from her virginity,
| وَكَانَتْ نَبِيَّةٌ، حَنَّةُ بِنْتُ فَنُوئِيلَ مِنْ سِبْطِ أَشِيرَ، وَهِيَ مُتَقدِّمَةٌ فِي أَيَّامٍ كَثِيرَةٍ، قَدْ عَاشَتْ مَعَ زَوْجٍ سَبْعَ سِنِينَ بَعْدَ بُكُورِيَّتِهَا. | ٣٦ |
37 and she had been a widow for about eighty-four years), who did not depart from the temple, worshipping with fastings and petitions night and day.
| وَهِيَ أَرْمَلَةٌ نَحْوَ أَرْبَعٍ وَثَمَانِينَ سَنَةً، لَا تُفَارِقُ ٱلْهَيْكَلَ، عَابِدَةً بِأَصْوَامٍ وَطَلِبَاتٍ لَيْلًا وَنَهَارًا. | ٣٧ |
38 Coming up at that very hour, she gave thanks to God, and spoke of him to all those who were looking for the redemption of Jerusalem.
| فَهِيَ فِي تِلْكَ ٱلسَّاعَةِ وَقَفَتْ تُسَبِّحُ ٱلرَّبَّ، وَتَكَلَّمَتْ عَنْهُ مَعَ جَمِيعِ ٱلْمُنْتَظِرِينَ فِدَاءً فِي أُورُشَلِيمَ. | ٣٨ |
39 When they had accomplished all things that were according to the Law of the Lord, they returned into Galilee, to their own city, Nazareth.
| وَلَمَّا أَكْمَلُوا كُلَّ شَيْءٍ حَسَبَ نَامُوسِ ٱلرَّبِّ، رَجَعُوا إِلَى ٱلْجَلِيلِ إِلَى مَدِينَتِهِمُ ٱلنَّاصِرَةِ. | ٣٩ |
40 The child was growing, and was becoming strong, being filled with wisdom, and the favor of God was upon him.
| وَكَانَ ٱلصَّبِيُّ يَنْمُو وَيَتَقَوَّى بِٱلرُّوحِ، مُمْتَلِئًا حِكْمَةً، وَكَانَتْ نِعْمَةُ ٱللهِ عَلَيْهِ. | ٤٠ |
41 His parents went every year to Jerusalem at the feast of the Passover.
| وَكَانَ أَبَوَاهُ يَذْهَبَانِ كُلَّ سَنَةٍ إِلَى أُورُشَلِيمَ فِي عِيدِ ٱلْفِصْحِ. | ٤١ |
42 When he was twelve years old, they went up according to the custom of the feast,
| وَلَمَّا كَانَتْ لَهُ ٱثْنَتَا عَشْرَةَ سَنَةً صَعِدُوا إِلَى أُورُشَلِيمَ كَعَادَةِ ٱلْعِيدِ. | ٤٢ |
43 and when they had fulfilled the days, as they were returning, the boy Jesus stayed behind in Jerusalem. His parents did not know it,
| وَبَعْدَمَا أَكْمَلُوا ٱلْأَيَّامَ بَقِيَ عِنْدَ رُجُوعِهِمَا ٱلصَّبِيُّ يَسُوعُ فِي أُورُشَلِيمَ، وَيُوسُفُ وَأُمُّهُ لَمْ يَعْلَمَا. | ٤٣ |
44 but supposing him to be in the company, they went a day's journey, and they looked for him among their relatives and acquaintances.
| وَإِذْ ظَنَّاهُ بَيْنَ ٱلرُّفْقَةِ، ذَهَبَا مَسِيرَةَ يَوْمٍ، وَكَانَا يَطْلُبَانِهِ بَيْنَ ٱلْأَقْرِبَاءِ وَٱلْمَعَارِفِ. | ٤٤ |
45 When they did not find him, they returned to Jerusalem, looking for him.
| وَلَمَّا لَمْ يَجِدَاهُ رَجَعَا إِلَى أُورُشَلِيمَ يَطْلُبَانِهِ. | ٤٥ |
46 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.
| وَبَعْدَ ثَلَاثَةِ أَيَّامٍ وَجَدَاهُ فِي ٱلْهَيْكَلِ، جَالِسًا فِي وَسْطِ ٱلْمُعَلِّمِينَ، يَسْمَعُهُمْ وَيَسْأَلُهُمْ. | ٤٦ |
47 All who heard him were amazed at his understanding and his answers.
| وَكُلُّ ٱلَّذِينَ سَمِعُوهُ بُهِتُوا مِنْ فَهْمِهِ وَأَجْوِبَتِهِ. | ٤٧ |
48 When they saw him, they were astonished, and his mother said to him, "Son, why have you treated us this way? Look, your father and I were anxiously looking for you."
| فَلَمَّا أَبْصَرَاهُ ٱنْدَهَشَا. وَقَالَتْ لَهُ أُمُّهُ: «يَا بُنَيَّ، لِمَاذَا فَعَلْتَ بِنَا هَكَذَا؟ هُوَذَا أَبُوكَ وَأَنَا كُنَّا نَطْلُبُكَ مُعَذَّبَيْنِ!» | ٤٨ |
49 He said to them, "Why were you looking for me? Did you not know that I must be doing the works of my Father?"
| فَقَالَ لَهُمَا: «لِمَاذَا كُنْتُمَا تَطْلُبَانِنِي؟ أَلَمْ تَعْلَمَا أَنَّهُ يَنْبَغِي أَنْ أَكُونَ فِي مَا لِأَبِي؟». | ٤٩ |
50 They did not understand the saying which he spoke to them.
| فَلَمْ يَفْهَمَا ٱلْكَلَامَ ٱلَّذِي قَالَهُ لَهُمَا. | ٥٠ |
51 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.
| ثُمَّ نَزَلَ مَعَهُمَا وَجَاءَ إِلَى ٱلنَّاصِرَةِ وَكَانَ خَاضِعًا لَهُمَا. وَكَانَتْ أُمُّهُ تَحْفَظُ جَمِيعَ هَذِهِ ٱلْأُمُورِ فِي قَلْبِهَا. | ٥١ |
52 And Jesus increased in wisdom and stature, and in favor with God and people.
| وَأَمَّا يَسُوعُ فَكَانَ يَتَقَدَّمُ فِي ٱلْحِكْمَةِ وَٱلْقَامَةِ وَٱلنِّعْمَةِ، عِنْدَ ٱللهِ وَٱلنَّاسِ. | ٥٢ |
