Lucas 2 - Bíblia Online

Now it came about in those days that an order went out from Caesar Augustus that there was to be a numbering of all the world. 
This was the first numbering, which was made when Quirinius was ruler of Syria. 
And all men went to be numbered, everyone to his town. 
And Joseph went up from Galilee, out of the town of Nazareth, into Judaea, to Beth-lehem, the town of David, because he was of the house and family of David, 
To be put on the list with Mary, his future wife, who was about to become a mother. 
And while they were there, the time came for her to give birth. 
And she had her first son; and folding him in linen, she put him to rest in the place where the cattle had their food, because there was no room for them in the house. 
And in the same country there were keepers of sheep in the fields, watching over their flock by night. 
And an angel of the Lord came to them, and the glory of the Lord was shining round about them: and fear came on them. 
And the angel said, Have no fear; for truly, I give you good news of great joy which will be for all the people: 
For on this day, in the town of David, a Saviour has come to birth, who is Christ the Lord. 
And this is the sign to you: you will see a young child folded in linen, in the place where the cattle have their food. 
And suddenly there was with the angel a great band of spirits from heaven, giving praise to God, and saying, 
Glory to God in the highest, and on the earth peace among men with whom he is well pleased. 
And when the angels had gone away from them into heaven, the keepers of the sheep said to one another, Let us go now to Beth-lehem, and see this thing which has come about, which the Lord has made clear to us. 
And they came quickly, and saw Mary and Joseph, and the child in the place where the cattle had their food. 
And when they saw it, they gave them an account of the things which had been said to them about the child. 
And all those to whose ears it came were full of wonder at the things said by the keepers of the sheep. 
But Mary kept all these words in her heart, and gave much thought to them. 
Then the keepers of the sheep went back, giving glory and praise to God for all the things which had come to their ears and which they had seen, as it had been said to them. 
And when, after eight days, the time came for his circumcision, he was named Jesus, the name which the angel had given to him before his birth. 
And when the necessary days for making them clean by the law of Moses had come to an end, they took him to Jerusalem to give him to the Lord 
(As it says in the law of the Lord, Every mother's first male child is to be holy to the Lord), 
And to make an offering, as it is ordered in the law of the Lord, of two doves or other young birds. 
And there was then in Jerusalem a man whose name was Simeon; and he was an upright man, fearing God and waiting for the comfort of Israel: and the Holy Spirit was on him. 
And he had knowledge, through the Holy Spirit, that he would not see death till he had seen the Lord's Christ. 
And full of the Spirit he came into the Temple; and when the father and mother came in with the child Jesus, to do with him what was ordered by the law, 
Then he took him in his arms and gave praise to God and said, 
Now you are letting your servant go in peace, O Lord, as you have said; 
For my eyes have seen your salvation, 
Which you have made ready before the face of all nations; 
A light of revelation to the Gentiles, and the glory of your people Israel. 
And his father and mother were full of wonder at the things which were said about him. 
And Simeon gave them his blessing and said to Mary, his mother, See, this child will be the cause of the downfall and the lifting up of great numbers of people in Israel, and he will be a sign against which hard words will be said; 
(And a sword will go through your heart;) so that the secret thoughts of men may come to light. 
And there was one, Anna, a woman prophet, the daughter of Phanuel, of the family of Asher (she was very old, and after seven years of married life 
She had been a widow for eighty-four years); she was in the Temple at all times, worshipping with prayers and going without food, night and day. 
And coming up at that time, she gave praise to God, talking of him to all those who were waiting for the freeing of Jerusalem. 
And when they had done all the things which were ordered by the law of the Lord, they went back to Galilee, to Nazareth, the town where they were living. 
And the child became tall and strong and full of wisdom, and the grace of God was on him. 
And every year his father and mother went to Jerusalem at the feast of the Passover. 
And when he was twelve years old, they went up, as their way was, to the feast; 
And when the days of the feast came to an end and they were going back, the boy Jesus was still in Jerusalem, but they had no knowledge of it: 
And in the belief that he was with some of their number, they went a day's journey; and after looking for him among their relations and friends, 
And seeing that he was not there, they went back to Jerusalem, to make search for him. 
And after three days they came across him in the Temple, seated among the wise men, giving ear to their words and putting questions to them. 
And all to whose ears it came were full of wonder at his knowledge and the answers which he gave. 
And when they saw him they were surprised, and his mother said to him, Son, why have you done this to us? see, your father and I have been looking for you with sorrow. 
And he said to them, Why were you looking for me? was it not clear to you that my right place was in my Father's house? 
And his words seemed strange to them. 
And he went down with them and came to Nazareth; and did as he was ordered: and his mother kept all these words in her heart. 
And Jesus was increasing in wisdom and in years, and in grace before God and men. 

I stalo se v těch dnech, vyšlo jest vyrčení od císaře Augusta, aby byl popsán všecken svět. 
(To popsání nejprve stalo se, když vladařem Syrským byl Cyrenius.) 
I šli všickni, aby zapsáni byli, jeden každý do svého města. 
Vstoupil pak i Jozef od Galilee z města Nazarétu do Judstva, do města Davidova, kteréž slove Betlém, (protože byl z domu a z čeledi Davidovy,) 
Aby zapsán byl s Marijí, zasnoubenou sobě manželkou, těhotnou. 
I stalo se, když tam byli, naplnili se dnové Marie, aby porodila. 
I porodila Syna svého prvorozeného, a plénkami ho obvinula, a položila jej v jeslech, neb neměli jinde místa v hospodě. 
A pastýři byli v krajině té, ponocujíce a stráž noční držíce nad svým stádem. 
A aj, anděl Páně postavil se podle nich, a sláva Páně osvítila je. I báli se bázní velikou. 
Tedy řekl jim anděl: Nebojtež se; nebo aj, zvěstuji vám radost velikou, kteráž bude všemu lidu. 
Nebo narodil se vám dnes Spasitel, jenž jest Kristus Pán, v městě Davidově. 
A toto vám bude za znamení: Naleznete nemluvňátko plénkami obvinuté, a ležící v jeslech. 
A hned s andělem zjevilo se množství rytířstva nebeského, chválících Boha a řkoucích: 
Sláva na výsostech Bohu, a na zemi pokoj, lidem dobrá vůle. 
I stalo se, jakž odešli od nich andělé do nebe, že ti lidé, totiž pastýři, řekli vespolek: Pojďme až do Betléma a vizme tu věc, jenž se stala, o níž Pán oznámil nám. 
I přišli, chvátajíce, a nalezli Mariji a Jozefa, a nemluvňátko ležící v jeslech. 
A viděvše, rozhlašovali to, což jim povědíno bylo o tom dítěti. 
I divili se všickni, kteříž slyšeli o tom, což bylo mluveno od pastýřů k nim. 
Ale Maria zachovávala všecka slova tato, skládajici je v srdci svém. 
I navrátili se pastýři, velebíce a chválíce Boha ze všeho, což slyšeli a viděli, tak jakž bylo povědíno jim. 
A když se naplnilo dní osm, aby obřezáno bylo dítě, nazváno jest jméno jeho Ježíš, kterýmž bylo nazváno od anděla, prve než se v životě počalo. 
A když se naplnili dnové očišťování Marie podle Zákona Mojžíšova, přinesli jej do Jeruzaléma, aby ho postavili přede Pánem, 
(Jakož psáno jest v Zákoně Páně, že každý pacholík, otvíraje život, svatý Pánu slouti bude,) 
A aby dali obět, jakož povědíno jest v Zákoně Páně, dvě hrdličky anebo dvé holoubátek. 
A aj, člověk jeden byl v Jeruzalémě, jemuž jméno Simeon. A člověk ten byl spravedlivý a nábožný, očekávající potěšení Izraelského, a Duch svatý byl v něm. 
A bylo jemu zjeveno od Ducha svatého, že neuzří smrti, až by prve uzřel Krista Páně. 
Ten přišel, ponuknut jsa od Ducha Páně, do chrámu. A když uvodili dítě Ježíše rodičové, aby učinili podle obyčeje Zákona za něj, 
Tedy on vzal jej na lokty své, i chválil Boha a řekl: 
Nyní propouštíš služebníka svého, Pane, podle slova svého v pokoji. 
Neboť jsou viděly oči mé spasení tvé, 
Kteréž jsi připravil před obličejem všech lidí, 
Světlo k zjevení národům a slávu lidu tvého Izraelského. 
Otec pak a matka jeho divili se těm věcem, kteréž praveny byly o něm. 
I požehnal jim Simeon, a řekl k Mariji, matce jeho: Aj, položen jest tento ku pádu a ku povstání mnohým v Izraeli, a na znamení, kterémužto bude odpíráno, 
(A tvou vlastní duši pronikne meč,) aby zjevena byla z mnohých srdcí myšlení. 
Byla také Anna prorokyně, dcera Fanuelova z pokolení Aser. Ta se byla zstarala ve dnech mnohých, a živa byla s mužem svým sedm let od panenství svého. 
A ta vdova byla, mající let okolo osmdesáti a čtyř, kteráž nevycházela z chrámu, posty a modlitbami sloužeci Bohu dnem i nocí. 
A ta v touž hodinu přišedši, chválila Pána, a mluvila o něm všechněm, kteříž čekali vykoupení v Jeruzalémě. 
Oni pak, jakž vykonali všecko podle Zákona Páně, vrátili se do Galilee, do města svého Nazaréta. 
Dítě pak rostlo a posilovalo se v duchu, plné moudrosti, a milost Boží byla v něm. 
I chodívali rodičové jeho každého roku do Jeruzaléma na den slavný velikonoční. 
A když byl ve dvanácti letech, a oni vstupovali do Jeruzaléma, podle obyčeje toho dne svátečního, 
A když vykonali dni, a již se navracovali, zůstalo dítě Ježíš v Jeruzalémě, a nevěděli o tom Jozef a matka jeho. 
Domnívajíce se pak o něm, že by byl v zástupu, ušli den cesty. I hledali ho mezi příbuznými a známými. 
A nenalezše jeho, navrátili se do Jeruzaléma, hledajíce ho. 
I stalo se po třech dnech, že nalezli jej v chrámě, an sedí mezi doktory, poslouchaje jich a otazuje se jich. 
A děsili se všickni, kteříž jej slyšeli, nad rozumností a odpovědmi jeho. 
A uzřevše ho, ulekli se. I řekla matka jeho k němu: Synu, proč jsi nám tak učinil? Aj, otec tvůj a já s bolestí hledali jsme tebe. 
I řekl k nim: Co jest, že jste mne hledali? Zdaliž jste nevěděli, že v těch věcech, kteréž jsou Otce mého, musím já býti? 
Ale oni nesrozuměli těm slovům, kteráž k nim mluvil. 
I šel s nimi, a přišel do Nazarétu, a byl poddán jim. Matka pak jeho zachovávala všecka slova ta v srdci svém. 
A Ježíš prospíval moudrostí, a věkem, a milostí, u Boha i u lidí.
