Lucas 2 - Bíblia Online

Naqueles dias saiu um decreto da parte de César Augusto, para que todo o mundo fosse recenseado. 
Este primeiro recenseamento foi feito quando Quirínio era governador da Síria. 
E todos iam alistar-se, cada um à sua própria cidade. 
Subiu também José, da Galiléia, da cidade de Nazaré, à cidade de Davi, chamada Belém, porque era da casa e família de Davi, 
a fim de alistar-se com Maria, sua esposa, que estava grávida. 
Enquanto estavam ali, chegou o tempo em que ela havia de dar à luz, 
e teve a seu filho primogênito; envolveu-o em faixas e o deitou em uma manjedoura, porque não havia lugar para eles na estalagem. 
Ora, havia naquela mesma região pastores que estavam no campo, e guardavam durante as vigílias da noite o seu rebanho. 
E um anjo do Senhor apareceu-lhes, e a glória do Senhor os cercou de resplendor; pelo que se encheram de grande temor. 
O anjo, porém, lhes disse: Não temais, porquanto vos trago novas de grande alegria que o será para todo o povo: 
É que vos nasceu hoje, na cidade de Davi, o Salvador, que é Cristo, o Senhor. 
E isto vos será por sinal: Achareis um menino envolto em faixas, e deitado em uma manjedoura. 
Então, de repente, apareceu junto ao anjo grande multidão da milícia celestial, louvando a Deus e dizendo: 
Glória a Deus nas maiores alturas, e paz na terra entre os homens de boa vontade. 
E logo que os anjos se retiraram deles para o céu, diziam os pastores uns aos outros: Vamos já até Belém, e vejamos isso que aconteceu e que o Senhor nos deu a conhecer. 
Foram, pois, a toda a pressa, e acharam Maria e José, e o menino deitado na manjedoura; 
e, vendo-o, divulgaram a palavra que acerca do menino lhes fora dita; 
e todos os que a ouviram se admiravam do que os pastores lhes diziam. 
Maria, porém, guardava todas estas coisas, meditando-as em seu coração. 
E voltaram os pastores, glorificando e louvando a Deus por tudo o que tinham ouvido e visto, como lhes fora dito. 
Quando se completaram os oito dias para ser circuncidado o menino, foi-lhe dado o nome de Jesus, que pelo anjo lhe fora posto antes de ser concebido. 
Terminados os dias da purificação, segundo a lei de Moisés, levaram-no a Jerusalém, para apresentá-lo ao Senhor 
{conforme está escrito na lei do Senhor: Todo primogênito será consagrado ao Senhor}, 
e para oferecerem um sacrifício segundo o disposto na lei do Senhor: um par de rolas, ou dois pombinhos. 
Ora, havia em Jerusalém um homem cujo nome era Simeão; e este homem, justo e temente a Deus, esperava a consolação de Israel; e o Espírito Santo estava sobre ele. 
E lhe fora revelado pelo Espírito Santo que ele não morreria antes de ver o Cristo do Senhor. 
Assim pelo Espírito foi ao templo; e quando os pais trouxeram o menino Jesus, para fazerem por ele segundo o costume da lei, 
Simeão o tomou em seus braços, e louvou a Deus, e disse: 
Agora, Senhor, despedes em paz o teu servo, segundo a tua palavra; 
pois os meus olhos já viram a tua salvação, 
a qual tu preparaste ante a face de todos os povos; 
luz para revelação aos gentios, e para glória do teu povo Israel. 
Enquanto isso, seu pai e sua mãe se admiravam das coisas que deles se diziam. 
E Simeão os abençoou, e disse a Maria, mãe do menino: Eis que este é posto para queda e para levantamento de muitos em Israel, e para ser alvo de contradição, 
sim, e uma espada traspassará a tua própria alma, para que se manifestem os pensamentos de muitos corações. 
Havia também uma profetisa, Ana, filha de Fanuel, da tribo de Aser. Era já avançada em idade, tendo vivido com o marido sete anos desde a sua virgindade; 
e era viúva, de quase oitenta e quatro anos. Não se afastava do templo, servindo a Deus noite e dia em jejuns e orações. 
Chegando ela na mesma hora, deu graças a Deus, e falou a respeito do menino a todos os que esperavam a redenção de Jerusalém. 
Assim que cumpriram tudo segundo a lei do Senhor, voltaram à Galiléia, para sua cidade de Nazaré. 
E o menino ia crescendo e fortalecendo-se, ficando cheio de sabedoria; e a graça de Deus estava sobre ele. 
Ora, seus pais iam todos os anos a Jerusalém, à festa da páscoa. 
Quando Jesus completou doze anos, subiram eles segundo o costume da festa; 
e, terminados aqueles dias, ao regressarem, ficou o menino Jesus em Jerusalém sem o saberem seus pais; 
julgando, porém, que estivesse entre os companheiros de viagem, andaram caminho de um dia, e o procuravam entre os parentes e conhecidos; 
e não o achando, voltaram a Jerusalém em busca dele. 
E aconteceu que, passados três dias, o acharam no templo, sentado no meio dos doutores, ouvindo-os, e interrogando-os. 
E todos os que o ouviam se admiravam da sua inteligência e das suas respostas. 
Quando o viram, ficaram maravilhados, e disse-lhe sua mãe: Filho, por que procedeste assim para conosco? Eis que teu pai e eu ansiosos te procurávamos. 
Respondeu-lhes ele: Por que me procuráveis? Não sabíeis que eu devia estar na casa de meu Pai? 
Eles, porém, não entenderam as palavras que lhes dissera. 
Então, descendo com eles, foi para Nazaré, e era-lhes sujeito. E sua mãe guardava todas estas coisas em seu coração. 
E crescia Jesus em sabedoria, em estatura e em graça diante de Deus e dos homens. 

But it came to pass in those days that a decree went out from Caesar Augustus, that a census should be made of all the habitable world. 
The census itself first took place when Cyrenius had the government of Syria. 
And all went to be inscribed in the census roll, each to his own city: 
and Joseph also went up from Galilee out of the city Nazareth to Judaea, to David's city, the which is called Bethlehem, because he was of the house and family of David, 
to be inscribed in the census roll with Mary who was betrothed to him {as his} wife, she being great with child. 
And it came to pass, while they were there, the days of her giving birth {to her child} were fulfilled, 
and she brought forth her first-born son, and wrapped him up in swaddling-clothes and laid him in the manger, because there was no room for them in the inn. 
And there were shepherds in that country abiding without, and keeping watch by night over their flock. 
And lo, an angel of {the} Lord was there by them, and {the} glory of {the} Lord shone around them, and they feared {with} great fear. 
And the angel said to them, Fear not, for behold, I announce to you glad tidings of great joy, which shall be to all the people; 
for to-day a Saviour has been born to you in David's city, who is Christ {the} Lord. 
And this is the sign to you: ye shall find a babe wrapped in swaddling-clothes, and lying in a manger. 
And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host, praising God and saying, 
Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good pleasure in men. 
And it came to pass, as the angels departed from them into heaven, that the shepherds said to one another, Let us make our way then now as far as Bethlehem, and let us see this thing that is come to pass, which the Lord has made known to us. 
And they came with haste, and found both Mary and Joseph, and the babe lying in the manger; 
and having seen {it} they made known about the country the thing which had been said to them concerning this child. 
And all who heard {it} wondered at the things said to them by the shepherds. 
But Mary kept all these things {in her mind}, pondering {them} in her heart. 
And the shepherds returned, glorifying and praising God for all things which they had heard and seen, as it had been said to them. 
And when eight days were fulfilled for circumcising him, his name was called Jesus, which was the name given by the angel before he had been conceived in the womb. 
And when the days were fulfilled for their purifying according to the law of Moses, they brought him to Jerusalem to present {him} to the Lord 
(as it is written in the law of {the} Lord: Every male that opens the womb shall be called holy to the Lord), 
and to offer a sacrifice according to what is said in the law of {the} Lord: A pair of turtle doves, or two young pigeons. 
And behold, there was a man in Jerusalem whose name was Simeon; and this man was just and pious, awaiting the consolation of Israel, and {the} Holy Spirit was upon him. 
And it was divinely communicated to him by the Holy Spirit, that he should not see death before he should see {the} Lord's Christ. 
And he came in the Spirit into the temple; and as the parents brought in the child Jesus that they might do for him according to the custom of the law, 
*he* received him into his arms, and blessed God, and said, 
Lord, now thou lettest thy bondman go, according to thy word, in peace; 
for mine eyes have seen thy salvation, 
which thou hast prepared before the face of all peoples; 
a light for revelation of {the} Gentiles and {the} glory of thy people Israel. 
And his father and mother wondered at the things which were said concerning him. 
And Simeon blessed them, and said to Mary his mother, Lo, this {child} is set for the fall and rising up of many in Israel, and for a sign spoken against; 
(and even a sword shall go through thine own soul;) so that {the} thoughts may be revealed from many hearts. 
And there was a prophetess, Anna, daughter of Phanuel, of {the} tribe of Asher, who was far advanced in years, having lived with {her} husband seven years from her virginity, 
and herself a widow up to eighty-four years; who did not depart from the temple, serving night and day with fastings and prayers; 
and she coming up the same hour gave praise to the Lord, and spoke of him to all those who waited for redemption in Jerusalem. 
And when they had completed all things according to the law of {the} Lord, they returned to Galilee to their own city Nazareth. 
And the child grew and waxed strong {in spirit}, filled with wisdom, and God's grace was upon him. 
And his parents went yearly to Jerusalem at the feast of the passover. 
And when he was twelve years old, and they went up {to Jerusalem} according to the custom of the feast 
and had completed the days, as they returned, the boy Jesus remained behind in Jerusalem, and his parents knew not {of it}; 
but, supposing him to be in the company that journeyed together, they went a day's journey, and sought him among their relations and acquaintances: 
and not having found him they returned to Jerusalem seeking him. 
And it came to pass, after three days they found him in the temple, sitting in the midst of the teachers and hearing them and asking them questions. 
And all who heard him were astonished at his understanding and answers. 
And when they saw him they were amazed: and his mother said to him, Child, why hast thou dealt thus with us? behold, thy father and I have sought thee distressed. 
And he said to them, Why {is it} that ye have sought me? did ye not know that I ought to be {occupied} in my Father's business? 
And they understood not the thing that he said to them. 
And he went down with them and came to Nazareth, and he was in subjection to them. And his mother kept all these things in her heart. 
And Jesus advanced in wisdom and stature, and in favour with God and men.
