Lukas 2
1 Itu adalah waktu ketika Kaisar Agustus mengeluarkan sebuah perintah untuk diadakannya perhitungan jumlah penduduk di seluruh Kerajaan Romawi.
And it came to pass in those days, that there went out a decree from Cesar Augustus, that all the world should be taxed.
2 Sensus ini adalah sensus pertama di bawah pemerintahan Gubernur Kirenius di wilayah Siria.
([And] this taxing was first made when Cyrenius was governor of Syria.)
3 Maka setiap penduduk pergi ke kota kelahiran mereka untuk mendaftarkan dirinya.
And all went to be taxed, every 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 of Nazareth, into Judea, to the city of David, which is called Bethlehem; (because he was of the house and lineage of David)
5 Dia pergi mendaftarkan dirinya di kota itu bersama dengan Maria, yang sudah bertunangan dengannya dan sedang menantikan kelahiran bayinya.
To be taxed with Mary his espoused wife, being great with child.
6 Sementara mereka di sana, tiba waktunya bagi Maria untuk melahirkan bayinya.
And so it was, that while they were there, the days were accomplished that she should be delivered.
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 first-born son, and wrapped him in swaddling-clothes, and laid him in a manger; because there was no room 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 there were in the same country shepherds abiding in the field, keeping watch over their flock by night.
9 Seorang malaikat Tuhan muncul di hadapan mereka, dan kemuliaan Tuhan bersinar mengelilingi mereka. Mereka sangat ketakutan.
And lo, the angel of the Lord came upon them, and the glory of the Lord shone around them; and they were in 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 bring you good tidings 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.
For to you is born this day, in the city of David, a Savior, who is Christ the Lord.
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] a sign to you; Ye shall find the babe wrapped in swaddling-clothes, lying in a manger.
13 Tiba-tiba banyak sekali malaikat yang muncul, memuji Allah dan berkata,
And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host 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 on earth peace, good will towards 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 had departed from them into heaven, the shepherds said one to another, Let us now go even to Bethlehem, and see this thing which is come to pass, which the Lord hath made known to us.
16 Mereka dengan bergegas pergi ke Betlehem dan menemukan Maria, Yusuf, serta bayi itu, yang sedang berbaring di palungan.
And they came with haste, and found Mary and Joseph, and the babe lying in a 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 when they had seen [it], they made known abroad the saying which was told them concerning this child.
18 Dan mereka yang mendengar berita ini kagum dengan apa yang para gembala ceritakan kepada mereka.
And all they that heard [it], wondered at those things which were told them by the shepherds.
19 Tetapi Maria mengingat dan merenungkan segala kejadian yang sudah terjadi.
But Mary kept all these things, and pondered [them] 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 the things that they had heard and seen, as it was told to them.
21 Sesudah Yesus berumur delapan hari, tiba waktunya bagi bayi itu untuk disunat, dan diberi nama Yesus.
And when eight days were accomplished for the circumcising of the child, his name was called JESUS, who was so named 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 her purification according to the law of Moses were accomplished, they brought him to Jerusalem, to present [him] to the Lord;
23 seperti yang Tuhan sudah perintahkan, “Setiap anak laki-laki sulung haruslah diserahkan kepada Tuhan.”
(As it is written in the law of the Lord, Every male that is the first born of his mother 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 is said 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] just and devout, waiting for the consolation of Israel: and the Holy Spirit was upon him.
26 Roh Kudus sudah ditunjukkan kepadanya bahwa dia tidak akan mati sebelum dia bertemu dengan Tuhan sang Mesias.
And it was revealed to him by the Holy Spirit, that he should not see death, before he had seen the Lord's Christ.
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 by the spirit into the temple; and when the parents brought in the child Jesus, to do for him after the custom of the law,
28 Simeon menggendong Yesus, mengucap syukur kepada Allah, dan berkata,
Then he took him up in his arms, and blessed God, and said,
29 “Tuhanku, sekarang ijinkanlah hamba-Mu ini meninggal dengan tenang seperti yang sudah Engkau janjikan,
Lord, now lettest thou thy servant depart in peace, according to thy word:
30 sebab sudah kulihat dengan mataku sendiri bagaimana Engkau akan menyelamatkan umat-Mu,
For my eyes have seen thy salvation,
31 yang sudah Engkau persiapkan bagi semua orang.
Which thou hast prepared before the face of all people;
32 Dia akan menjadi seperti terang yang akan menerangi bangsa-bangsa lain, Dia akan menjadi kemuliaan bagi umat-Mu orang Israel.”
A light to enlighten the Gentiles, and the glory of thy people Israel.
33 Ayah dan ibu Yesus terkejut mendengar perkataan Simeon tentang Yesus.
And Joseph and his mother marveled at those things which were 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, this [child] is set for the fall and rising again of many in Israel; and for a sign which shall be 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 pierce through thy own soul also) that the thoughts 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 there was one Anna, a prophetess, the daughter of Phanuel, of the tribe of Asher: she was of a great age, and had lived with a 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 [was] a widow of about eighty four years, who departed not from the temple, but served [God] with fastings and prayers night and day.
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 coming in that instant, gave thanks likewise to the Lord, and spoke of him to all them that looked for 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 had performed all things according to the law of the Lord, they returned into Galilee, to their own city Nazareth.
40 Anak itu tumbuh bertambah kuat dan sangat bijak. Berkat Allah ada bersama Dia.
And the child grew, and became strong in spirit, filled with wisdom: and the grace of God was upon him.
41 Orang tua Yesus pergi ke Yerusalem setiap tahun untuk merayakan Paskah.
Now his parents went to Jerusalem every year 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 went 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 when they had fulfilled the days, as they returned, the child Jesus tarried behind in Jerusalem; and Joseph and his mother knew not [of it].
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.
But they, supposing him to be in the company, went a day's journey; and they sought him among [their] relations and acquaintance.
45 Ketika mereka tidak bisa menemukan-Nya, kembalilah mereka ke Yerusalem untuk mencari Dia di sana.
And when they found him not, 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, that after three days they found him in the temple, sitting in the midst of the doctors, both hearing them, and asking them questions.
47 Semua yang mendengarkan cara Yesus berbicara terkejut dengan pemahaman dan jawaban-jawaban-Nya.
And all that heard him were astonished at his understanding 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 when they saw him, they were amazed: and his mother said to him, Son, why hast thou thus dealt with us? behold, thy father and I have sought thee sorrowing.
49 “Mengapa Ibu mencari Aku?” jawab Yesus. “Tidakkah Ibu tahu bahwa Aku harus ada di rumah Bapa-Ku?”
And he said to them, How is it that ye sought me? knew ye not that I must be about my Father's business?
50 Tetapi mereka tidak mengerti arti perkataan-Nya.
And they understood not the saying which he spoke to 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 to them: but his mother kept all these sayings in her heart.
52 Dan Yesus semakin kuat dan semakin bijak, dan disukai oleh Allah dan manusia.
And Jesus increased in wisdom and stature, and in favor with God and man.
