Lukas 2
1 Itu adalah waktu ketika Kaisar Agustus mengeluarkan sebuah perintah untuk diadakannya perhitungan jumlah penduduk di seluruh Kerajaan Romawi.
It came to pass in those days, a decree went out from Augustus Caesar, to enroll all the world.
2 Sensus ini adalah sensus pertama di bawah pemerintahan Gubernur Kirenius di wilayah Siria.
This was the first enrollment, Cyrenius being governor of Syria.
3 Maka setiap penduduk pergi ke kota kelahiran mereka untuk mendaftarkan dirinya.
And all were going forth to enroll, each one into his own city.
4 Oleh karena Yusuf adalah keturunan dari Raja Daud, maka dia berangkat dari Nazaret yang terletak di daerah Galilea menuju ke Betlehem, yang dikenal sebagai kota Daud, di daerah Yudea.
And Joseph also went up from Galilee, out of the city Nazareth, into Judea, into the city of David which is called Bethlehem, because he was of the house and family of David,
5 Dia pergi mendaftarkan dirinya di kota itu bersama dengan Maria, yang sudah bertunangan dengannya dan sedang menantikan kelahiran bayinya.
to enroll himself along with Mary, the wife having been betrothed to him, being in an advanced state of pregnancy.
6 Sementara mereka di sana, tiba waktunya bagi Maria untuk melahirkan bayinya.
And it came to pass while they were there the days of her parturition were fulfilled.
7 Dan Maria melahirkan anak laki-laki sulungnya. Dia membungkusnya dengan kain dan membaringkannya di palungan karena penginapan tidak memiliki kamar lagi.
And she brought forth her firstborn son, and she wrapped Him in swaddling clothes and laid Him in a manger, because there was no place for them in the inn.
8 Di dekat daerah itu, beberapa orang gembala menghabiskan malam hari dengan menggembalakan domba-domba mereka di padang rumput.
And the shepherds were in that country, tenting out and keeping guard over their flock by night.
9 Seorang malaikat Tuhan muncul di hadapan mereka, dan kemuliaan Tuhan bersinar mengelilingi mereka. Mereka sangat ketakutan.
And behold an angel of the Lord stood over them and the glory of the Lord shone around them; and they feared with great fear.
10 “Jangan takut!” kata malaikat itu kepada mereka. “Aku di sini untuk membawakan kabar baik kepada kalian yang akan membuat seluruh umat manusia bersukacita.
And the angel said to them; Fear not; for behold, I preach unto you the gospel of great joy, which shall be to all people;
11 Seorang Juruselamat sudah lahir bagi kalian hari ini, di kota Daud. Dia adalah Mesias, Tuhan.
because this day a Savior is born unto you, who is Christ the Lord, in the city of David.
12 Kalian akan mengenali Dia dengan tanda ini, yaitu, kalian akan menemukan seorang anak yang dibungkus dengan kain dan diletakkan di dalam palungan.”
And this shall be the sign unto you; you shall find an infant lying in a manger, wrapped in swaddling clothes.
13 Tiba-tiba banyak sekali malaikat yang muncul, memuji Allah dan berkata,
And immediately a multitude of the heavenly host was with the angel, praising God and saying;
14 “Kemuliaan bagi Allah yang di surga, dan damai di bumi kepada mereka yang menyenangkan Dia.”
Glory to God in the highest, and peace on earth; good will among men.
15 Sesudah para malaikat meninggalkan mereka dan kembali ke surga, para gembala itu saling berkata, “Mari kita pergi ke Betlehem dan lihat kejadian yang sudah terjadi seperti yang sudah diceritakan oleh Tuhan kepada kita.”
And it came to pass, when the angels departed from them into heaven, indeed, the shepherds said to one another; Now let us go unto Bethlehem and see this word which has taken place, which the Lord made known to us.
16 Mereka dengan bergegas pergi ke Betlehem dan menemukan Maria, Yusuf, serta bayi itu, yang sedang berbaring di palungan.
They went making haste, and found both Mary and Joseph, and the infant lying in the manger.
17 Sesudah mereka melihat Dia dengan mata mereka sendiri, mereka menyebarkan berita tentang segala sesuatu yang terjadi dan tentang si bayi yang sudah mereka dengar.
And seeing, they made known concerning the word which was spoken to them about this little child.
18 Dan mereka yang mendengar berita ini kagum dengan apa yang para gembala ceritakan kepada mereka.
And all hearing wondered concerning the things which were spoken to them by the shepherds.
19 Tetapi Maria mengingat dan merenungkan segala kejadian yang sudah terjadi.
And Mary kept all these words laying them up in her heart.
20 Para gembala kembali menjaga ternak-ternak mereka, memuji dan bersyukur kepada Allah untuk segala berita yang sudah mereka dengar dan lihat, sebab sama seperti yang sudah pernah diberitahukan kepada mereka.
And the shepherds returned, glorifying and praising God, for all things which they heard and saw, as it was spoken to them.
21 Sesudah Yesus berumur delapan hari, tiba waktunya bagi bayi itu untuk disunat, dan diberi nama Yesus.
And when the eight days of circumcising Him were fulfilled, and His name was called Jesus, having been called by the angel before He was conceived in the womb.
22 Ketika tiba waktunya penyucian sesuai dengan hukum Taurat selesai dilaksanakan, Yusuf dan Maria membawa Yesus ke Yerusalem untuk diserahkan kepada Tuhan,
And when the days of their purification were fulfilled, according to the law of Moses, they carried him up into Jerusalem, to present him to the Lord,
23 seperti yang Tuhan sudah perintahkan, “Setiap anak laki-laki sulung haruslah diserahkan kepada Tuhan.”
as it was written in the law of the Lord; That every male opening the womb shall be called holy to the Lord;
24 Lalu di sana mereka memberikan kurban persembahan, seperti hukum Allah perintahkan, berupa “sepasang burung tekukur atau dua ekor burung merpati muda.”
and to offer a sacrifice according to that which has been written in the law of the Lord, a pair of turtle-doves, or two young pigeons.
25 Pada masa itu hiduplah seorang laki-laki bernama Simeon di Yerusalem. Simeon melakukan perbuatan yang benar dan sangat berbakti kepada Allah. Dia sangat menanti-nantikan janji Tuhan akan keselamatan bagi Israel, dan Roh Kudus ada di atasnya.
And behold, there was a man in Jerusalem whose name was Simeon; and the same man was righteous and godly, awaiting the consolation of Israel, and the Holy Spirit was on him;
26 Roh Kudus sudah ditunjukkan kepadanya bahwa dia tidak akan mati sebelum dia bertemu dengan Tuhan sang Mesias.
and it was revealed unto him by the Holy Spirit, that he should not see death before he may see the Christ of the Lord.
27 Dengan mengikuti arahan Roh Kudus, Simeon datang ke Rumah Allah ketika orangtua Yesus membawanya untuk diserahkan kepada Tuhan sesuai dengan ketentuan Hukum Taurat.
And he came in the Spirit into the temple; and while the parents are bringing in the little child Jesus, that they may do according to the provisions of law concerning Him,
28 Simeon menggendong Yesus, mengucap syukur kepada Allah, dan berkata,
he received Him into his arms and blessed God and said;
29 “Tuhanku, sekarang ijinkanlah hamba-Mu ini meninggal dengan tenang seperti yang sudah Engkau janjikan,
Now, O Lord, thou art letting thy servant depart, in peace according to thy word;
30 sebab sudah kulihat dengan mataku sendiri bagaimana Engkau akan menyelamatkan umat-Mu,
because mine eyes saw thy salvation,
31 yang sudah Engkau persiapkan bagi semua orang.
which thou didst prepare before the face of all peoples;
32 Dia akan menjadi seperti terang yang akan menerangi bangsa-bangsa lain, Dia akan menjadi kemuliaan bagi umat-Mu orang Israel.”
a light unto the revelation of the Gentiles, and the glory of thy people Israel.
33 Ayah dan ibu Yesus terkejut mendengar perkataan Simeon tentang Yesus.
And His father and His mother were marveling at the words spoken concerning Him.
34 Lalu Simeon memberkati mereka, dan berkata kepada Maria, ibu Yesus, “Anak ini ditakdirkan untuk menyebabkan banyak orang di Israel yang jatuh dan yang bangkit. Anak ini adalah tanda dari Allah bahwa banyak dari mereka yang akan menolak,
And Simeon blessed them and said to Mary, His mother; Behold, he is appointed unto the fall and rising of many in Israel, and unto a sign which is spoken against;
35 sebab Dia akan menyatakan pikiran-pikiran yang tersembunyi dalam benak mereka. Hal itu akan terasa seperti sebuah pedang yang menembus jantungmu, Ibu.”
and a sword shall go through thy soul, in order that the reasonings of many hearts may be revealed.
36 Lalu nabiah Hana juga tinggal di Yerusalem. Dia adalah anak perempuan dari Fanuel dari suku Asyer, dan sudah sangat tua. Dia sudah menikah selama tujuh tahun,
And Anna was a prophetess, the daughter of Phanuel of the tribe of Asher, herself being advanced in many days, having lived with her husband seven years from her virginity;
37 namun sesudah itu dia menjadi janda, sebab suaminya meninggal dunia. Usianya sudah 84 tahun. Dia menghabiskan waktunya dengan menyembah, berpuasa dan berdoa di rumah Tuhan.
and she a widow of about fourscore years, who did not depart from the temple, worshiping night and day with fastings and prayers.
38 Dia juga menghampiri mereka kala itu, dan mulai memuji Allah. Dia berbicara tentang Yesus kepada semua yang menanti-nantikan waktunya Allah untuk membebaskan Yerusalem.
And she, at the same hour, standing up continued to praise the Lord, and speak concerning Him to all those awaiting the redemption in Jerusalem.
39 Sesudah mereka menyelesaikan segala sesuatu yang diperinthakan oleh hukum Allah, mereka kembali ke rumah mereka di kota Nazaret di Galilea.
And when they finished all things according to the law of the Lord, they returned into Galilee into their own city Nazareth.
40 Anak itu tumbuh bertambah kuat dan sangat bijak. Berkat Allah ada bersama Dia.
And the child continued to grow and waxed strong in spirit, being full of wisdom; and the grace of God was on Him.
41 Orang tua Yesus pergi ke Yerusalem setiap tahun untuk merayakan Paskah.
And His parents were going, according to custom, into Jerusalem at the feast of the passover.
42 Ketika Yesus berusia 12 tahun, Yesus ikut mereka ke perayaan tersebut.
And when He was twelve years old, they going up to Jerusalem according to the custom of the feast,
43 Ketika perayaan sudah selesai dan sudah tiba waktunya kembali ke kota asal, Yesus yang masih kanak-kanak itu tetap tinggal di Yerusalem, namun orang tua-Nya tidak menyadari hal ini.
and having completed the days, while they were returning the boy Jesus remained in Jerusalem. And His parents knew it not.
44 Orang tua Yesus berpikir kalau Yesus bersama dengan rombongan anak-anak yang juga sedang kembali pulang. Sehari perjalanan sudah berlalu sebelum mereka mulai mencari Dia diantara teman dan keluarga mereka.
And thinking that He is in the crowd, they came a day's journey, and were seeking Him among His relatives and acquaintances.
45 Ketika mereka tidak bisa menemukan-Nya, kembalilah mereka ke Yerusalem untuk mencari Dia di sana.
And not having found Him; they returned to Jerusalem seeking Him.
46 Sudah berlalu tiga hari sebelum mereka berhasil menemukan Yesus di rumah Tuhan. Yesus sedang duduk di antara para guru-guru agama, mendengarkan mereka dan bertanya kepada mereka.
And it came to pass, after three days they found Him in the temple, sitting in the midst of the teachers, both hearing them and asking them questions.
47 Semua yang mendengarkan cara Yesus berbicara terkejut dengan pemahaman dan jawaban-jawaban-Nya.
And all hearing Him were astonished at His wisdom and answers.
48 Orangtua-Nya sungguh-sungguh bingung ketika mereka melihat apa yang sedang dilakukan-Nya. Ibu-Nya bertanya kepada-Nya, “Putraku, mengapa Kamu memperlakukan kami seperti ini? Ayah-Mu dan aku — kami sudah sangat kuatir! Kami mencari-Mu kemana-mana!”
And seeing Him they were astonished, and His mother said to Him; Child, why did you thus do unto us? Behold, thy father and I were seeking thee, sorrowful.
49 “Mengapa Ibu mencari Aku?” jawab Yesus. “Tidakkah Ibu tahu bahwa Aku harus ada di rumah Bapa-Ku?”
And He said to them, Why were you seeking after me? Did you not know that it behooved me to be in the affairs of my Father?
50 Tetapi mereka tidak mengerti arti perkataan-Nya.
And they did not understand the word which He spoke unto them.
51 Lalu kembalilah Dia bersama mereka ke Nazaret, dan taat kepada kedua orangtuanya. Ibu-Nya menyimpan setiap kejadian yang sudah terjadi dan sering merenungkannya.
And He went down with them and came to Nazareth; and was subject unto them. And His mother continued to keep all these words in her heart.
52 Dan Yesus semakin kuat dan semakin bijak, dan disukai oleh Allah dan manusia.
And Jesus continued to grow in wisdom and stature and favor with God and men.
