Lukas 2
1 Pada waktu itu Kaisar Agustus mengeluarkan suatu perintah, menyuruh mendaftarkan semua orang di seluruh dunia.
In those days Augustus Caesar issued an edict for a census of the whole inhabited world.
2 Inilah pendaftaran yang pertama kali diadakan sewaktu Kirenius menjadi wali negeri di Siria.
This was the first census, When Quirinius was governor of Syria.
3 Maka pergilah semua orang mendaftarkan diri, masing-masing di kotanya sendiri.
And every one went to be registered, each to the town to which he belonged.
4 Demikian juga Yusuf pergi dari kota Nazaret di Galilea ke Yudea, ke kota Daud yang bernama Betlehem, --karena ia berasal dari keluarga dan keturunan Daud--
And Joseph also went up from Galilee, out of the city if Nazareth, into Judea, to David’s town of Bethlehem, because he was of the house and family of David.
5 supaya didaftarkan bersama-sama dengan Maria, tunangannya, yang sedang mengandung.
He went to be registered along with Mary, who was espoused to him, and was pregnant.
6 Ketika mereka di situ tibalah waktunya bagi Maria untuk bersalin,
But while they were there the days were fulfilled for her delivery.
7 dan 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.
And she gave birth to her firstborn son; and she wrapped him in swaddling clothes, and laid him in a manger because there was no room for them in the inn.
8 Di daerah itu ada gembala-gembala yang tinggal di padang menjaga kawanan ternak mereka pada waktu malam.
And there were in the same country shepherds abiding in the fields, keeping watch over their flocks by night.
9 Tiba-tiba berdirilah seorang malaikat Tuhan di dekat mereka dan kemuliaan Tuhan bersinar meliputi mereka dan mereka sangat ketakutan.
When suddenly an angel of the Lord stood by them, and the glory of the Lord shone round them; and they feared with a great fear. The angel said to them.
10 Lalu kata malaikat itu kepada mereka: "Jangan takut, sebab sesungguhnya aku memberitakan kepadamu kesukaan besar untuk seluruh bangsa:
"Have no fear, for behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy, which shall be for all the people.
11 Hari ini telah lahir bagimu Juruselamat, yaitu Kristus, Tuhan, di kota Daud.
"For unto you born this day in there is born in David’s town a Saviour, who is the Anointed Lord.
12 Dan inilah tandanya bagimu: Kamu akan menjumpai seorang bayi dibungkus dengan lampin dan terbaring di dalam palungan."
"And this is a sign to you; You shall find the babe wrapped in swaddling-clothes lying in a manger."
13 Dan tiba-tiba tampaklah bersama-sama dengan malaikat itu sejumlah besar bala tentara sorga yang memuji Allah, katanya:
And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the Heavenly army praising God and saying,
14 "Kemuliaan bagi Allah di tempat yang mahatinggi dan damai sejahtera di bumi di antara manusia yang berkenan kepada-Nya."
"Glory to God in the highest, And in earth peace among men who please him"
15 Setelah 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."
Now when the angels had left them, and gone away to heaven, the shepherds said to one to another, "Let us go now even to Bethlehem, and see this saying which has come to pass, which the Lord has made known to us."
16 Lalu mereka cepat-cepat berangkat dan menjumpai Maria dan Yusuf dan bayi itu, yang sedang berbaring di dalam palungan.
so they made haste, and came and found Mary and Joseph, and the babe lying in the manger.
17 Dan ketika mereka melihat-Nya, mereka memberitahukan apa yang telah dikatakan kepada mereka tentang Anak itu.
When they had seen, they made known about the words which had been spoken to them concerning the child.
18 Dan semua orang yang mendengarnya heran tentang apa yang dikatakan gembala-gembala itu kepada mereka.
And all who heard it were astonished at the things which were told to them by the shepherds.
19 Tetapi Maria menyimpan segala perkara itu di dalam hatinya dan merenungkannya.
But Mary treasured up all those words, Often pondering on on them in her heart.
20 Maka 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.
And the shepherds returned, glorifying God and praising him for all those things that they had seen and heard, even as it was told to them.
21 Dan ketika genap delapan hari dan Ia harus disunatkan, Ia diberi nama Yesus, yaitu nama yang disebut oleh malaikat sebelum Ia dikandung ibu-Nya.
When eight days had passed, and the time had come to circumcise him, he was called Jesus, the name given him by the angel before his conception in the womb.
22 Dan ketika genap waktu pentahiran, menurut hukum Taurat Musa, mereka membawa Dia ke Yerusalem untuk menyerahkan-Nya kepada Tuhan,
And when the days for purification according to the law of Moses had passed, they took him up to Jerusalem, to present him to the Lord,
23 seperti ada tertulis dalam hukum Tuhan: "Semua anak laki-laki sulung harus dikuduskan bagi Allah",
as it is written in the law of Moses, Every firstborn male shall be called holy to the Lord.
24 dan untuk mempersembahkan korban menurut apa yang difirmankan dalam hukum Tuhan, yaitu sepasang burung tekukur atau dua ekor anak burung merpati.
And they also offered a sacrifice as commanded in the Law of the Lord A pair of turtle-doves or two young pigeons.
25 Adalah di Yerusalem seorang bernama Simeon. Ia seorang yang benar dan saleh yang menantikan penghiburan bagi Israel. Roh Kudus ada di atasnya,
Now there was in Jerusalem a man whose name was Simeon. He was righteous and devout, and was waiting for the consolation of Israel. The Holy Spirit was upon him.
26 dan kepadanya telah dinyatakan oleh Roh Kudus, bahwa ia tidak akan mati sebelum ia melihat Mesias, yaitu Dia yang diurapi Tuhan.
Now it has been revealed to him by the Holy Spirit that he should not see death, before he had seen the Lord’s Christ.
27 Ia 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,
And he came into the Temple, led by the Spirit. and when his parents brought in the child Jesus, to do for him according to the custom of the law,
28 ia menyambut Anak itu dan menatang-Nya sambil memuji Allah, katanya:
he 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,
"Now lettest thou thy slave depart, O Master; according to thy word in peace,
30 sebab mataku telah melihat keselamatan yang dari pada-Mu,
"Because my eyes had seen the salvation,
31 yang telah Engkau sediakan di hadapan segala bangsa,
"Which thou hast prepared before the face of all peoples;
32 yaitu terang yang menjadi penyataan bagi bangsa-bangsa lain dan menjadi kemuliaan bagi umat-Mu, Israel."
"A light for the unveiling of the Gentiles And the glory of thy people Israel."
33 Dan bapa serta ibu-Nya amat heran akan segala apa yang dikatakan tentang Dia.
And while his father and mother were marveling at the words that were spoken concerning him, Simeon blessed them and said to Mary, his mother.
34 Lalu 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
"Behold this child is set for the falling and rising up of many in Israel, and for a sign which is spoken against.
35 --dan suatu pedang akan menembus jiwamu sendiri--, supaya menjadi nyata pikiran hati banyak orang."
Yea, and a sword shall pierce through your own soul also, that the thoughts out of many hearts may be revealed."
36 Lagipula 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,
There was one Anna, a prophetess, the daughter of Phanuel, of the tribe of Asher. She was advanced in age, having lived with her husband seven years, after her girlhood,
37 dan sekarang ia janda dan berumur delapan puluh empat tahun. Ia tidak pernah meninggalkan Bait Allah dan siang malam beribadah dengan berpuasa dan berdoa.
and then being a widow even for fourscore and four years. She departed not from the temple, but worshiped with the fasting and prayer, night and day.
38 Dan 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.
She came up at that very hour, and gave thanks to God, and spoke of the child to all who were looking for the redemption of Jerusalem.
39 Dan setelah selesai semua yang harus dilakukan menurut hukum Tuhan, kembalilah mereka ke kota kediamannya, yaitu kota Nazaret di Galilea.
As soon as all that the law required had been done, they returned to Galilee to their own town, Nazareth.
40 Anak itu bertambah besar dan menjadi kuat, penuh hikmat, dan kasih karunia Allah ada pada-Nya.
And the child grew and became strong, becoming full of wisdom, and the grace of God was upon him.
41 Tiap-tiap tahun orang tua Yesus pergi ke Yerusalem pada hari raya Paskah.
Now his parents were accustomed to go up to Jerusalem every year at the feast of the Passover.
42 Ketika Yesus telah berumur dua belas tahun pergilah mereka ke Yerusalem seperti yang lazim pada hari raya itu.
And when he was twelve years old they went up, as was customary, at the time of the feast
43 Sehabis hari-hari perayaan itu, ketika mereka berjalan pulang, tinggallah Yesus di Yerusalem tanpa diketahui orang tua-Nya.
After spending the full number of days they started home, but the boy Jesus remained behind in Jerusalem. Joseph and his mother did not know this,
44 Karena 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.
but supposed that he was in the company, and went a days journey. Then they hunted for him among his kinsfolk and acquaintance;
45 Karena mereka tidak menemukan Dia, kembalilah mereka ke Yerusalem sambil terus mencari Dia.
and when they did not find him they returned to Jerusalem, making anxious inquiry for him.
46 Sesudah 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.
On the third day they found him sitting in the Temple, among the Rabbis, both listening to them and asking questions.
47 Dan semua orang yang mendengar Dia sangat heran akan kecerdasan-Nya dan segala jawab yang diberikan-Nya.
All that heard him were amazed at his understanding and his answers.
48 Dan 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."
When they saw him they were astonished, and his mother said to him "Child, why have you treated us so? Behold your father and I have been looking for you in anguish."
49 Jawab-Nya kepada mereka: "Mengapa kamu mencari Aku? Tidakkah kamu tahu, bahwa Aku harus berada di dalam rumah Bapa-Ku?"
He answered, "Why is it that you have been looking for me, did you not realize that I had to be in my Father’s house?"
50 Tetapi mereka tidak mengerti apa yang dikatakan-Nya kepada mereka.
But they did not understand the words that he spoke to them.
51 Lalu Ia pulang bersama-sama mereka ke Nazaret; dan Ia tetap hidup dalam asuhan mereka. Dan ibu-Nya menyimpan semua perkara itu di dalam hatinya.
Then he went down with them, and came to Nazareth, and he was always obedient to them. But his mother kept treasuring up all these incidents in her hearts.
52 Dan Yesus makin bertambah besar dan bertambah hikmat-Nya dan besar-Nya, dan makin dikasihi oleh Allah dan manusia.
And Jesus was ever advancing in wisdom and in status and in favor with God and man.
