¹

Now it came to pass in those days, there went out a decree from Caesar Augustus, that all the world should be enrolled.

¹

(Заⷱ҇ е҃.) Бы́сть же во дни̑ ты̑ѧ, и҆зы́де повелѣ́нїе ѿ ке́сарѧ а҆́ѵгꙋста написа́ти всю̀ вселе́ннꙋю.

²

This was the first enrollment made when Quirinius was governor of Syria.

²

Сїѐ написа́нїе пе́рвое бы́сть владѧ́щꙋ сѷрі́ею кѷрині́ю.

³

And all went to enroll themselves, every one to his own city.

³

И҆ и҆дѧ́хꙋ всѝ написа́тисѧ, ко́ждо во сво́й гра́дъ.

⁴

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 family of David;

⁴

Взы́де же и҆ і҆ѡ́сифъ ѿ галїле́и, и҆з̾ гра́да назаре́та, во і҆ꙋде́ю, во гра́дъ дв҃довъ, и҆̀же нарица́етсѧ виѳлее́мъ, занѐ бы́ти є҆мꙋ̀ ѿ до́мꙋ и҆ ѻ҆те́чества дв҃дова,

⁵

to enroll himself with Mary, who was betrothed to him as his wife, being great with child.

⁵

написа́тисѧ съ мр҃і́ею ѡ҆брꙋче́ною є҆мꙋ̀ жено́ю, сꙋ́щею непра́здною.

⁶

And it came to pass, while they were there, the days were fulfilled that she should be delivered.

⁶

Бы́сть же, є҆гда̀ бы́ста та́мѡ, и҆спо́лнишасѧ дні́е роди́ти є҆́й:

⁷

And she brought forth her firstborn son; and she wrapped him in swaddling clothes, and laid him in the manger, because there was no room for them in the inn.

⁷

и҆ родѝ сн҃а своего̀ пе́рвенца, и҆ пови́тъ є҆го̀, и҆ положѝ є҆го̀ въ ꙗ҆́слехъ: занѐ не бѣ̀ и҆̀мъ мѣ́ста во ѡ҆би́тели.

⁸

And there were shepherds in the same country abiding in the field, and keeping watch by night over their flock.

⁸

И҆ па́стырїе бѣ́хꙋ въ то́йже странѣ̀, бдѧ́ще и҆ стрегꙋ́ще стра́жꙋ нощнꙋ́ю ѡ҆ ста́дѣ свое́мъ.

⁹

And lo, an angel of the Lord stood by them, and the glory of the Lord shone round about them: and they were sore afraid.

⁹

И҆ сѐ а҆́гг҃лъ гдⷭ҇нь ста̀ въ ни́хъ, и҆ сла́ва гдⷭ҇нѧ ѡ҆сїѧ̀ и҆̀хъ: и҆ оу҆боѧ́шасѧ стра́хомъ ве́лїимъ.

¹⁰

And the angel said unto them, Be not afraid; for behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy which shall be to all the people:

¹⁰

И҆ речѐ и҆̀мъ а҆́гг҃лъ: не бо́йтесѧ: се́ бо благовѣствꙋ́ю ва́мъ ра́дость ве́лїю, ꙗ҆́же бꙋ́детъ всѣ́мъ лю́демъ:

¹¹

for there is born to you this day in the city of David a Savior, who is Christ the Lord.

¹¹

ꙗ҆́кѡ роди́сѧ ва́мъ дне́сь сп҃съ, и҆́же є҆́сть хрⷭ҇то́съ гдⷭ҇ь, во гра́дѣ дв҃довѣ:

¹²

And this is the sign unto you: Ye shall find a babe wrapped in swaddling clothes, lying in the manger.

¹²

и҆ сѐ ва́мъ зна́менїе: ѡ҆брѧ́щете младе́нца пови́та, лежа́ща въ ꙗ҆́слехъ.

¹³

And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising God, and saying,

¹³

И҆ внеза́пꙋ бы́сть со а҆́гг҃ломъ мно́жество вѡ́й нбⷭ҇ныхъ, хва́лѧщихъ бг҃а и҆ глаго́лющихъ:

¹⁴

Glory to God in the highest, And on earth peace, good pleasure among men.

¹⁴

сла́ва въ вы́шнихъ бг҃ꙋ, и҆ на землѝ ми́ръ, во человѣ́цѣхъ бл҃говоле́нїе.

¹⁵

And it came to pass, when the angels went away from them into heaven, that the men, the shepherds, said one to another, Let us now go even unto Bethlehem, and see this thing that is come to pass, which the Lord hath made known unto us.

¹⁵

И҆ бы́сть, ꙗ҆́кѡ ѿидо́ша ѿ ни́хъ на не́бо а҆́гг҃ли, и҆ человѣ́цы па́стырїе рѣ́ша дрꙋ́гъ ко дрꙋ́гꙋ: пре́йдемъ до виѳлее́ма и҆ ви́димъ глаго́лъ се́й бы́вшїй, є҆го́же гдⷭ҇ь сказа̀ на́мъ.

¹⁶

And they came with haste, and found both Mary and Joseph, and the babe lying in the manger.

¹⁶

И҆ прїидо́ша поспѣ́шшесѧ, и҆ ѡ҆брѣто́ша мр҃їа́мь же и҆ і҆ѡ́сифа, и҆ младе́нца лежа́ща во ꙗ҆́слехъ.

¹⁷

And when they saw it, they made known abroad concerning the saying which was spoken to them about this child.

¹⁷

Ви́дѣвше же сказа́ша ѡ҆ глаго́лѣ глаго́ланнѣмъ и҆̀мъ ѡ҆ ѻ҆троча́ти се́мъ.

¹⁸

And all that heard it wondered at the things which were spoken unto them by the shepherds.

¹⁸

И҆ всѝ слы́шавшїи диви́шасѧ ѡ҆ глаго́ланныхъ ѿ па́стырей къ ни̑мъ.

¹⁹

But Mary kept all these sayings, pondering them in her heart.

¹⁹

Мр҃їа́мь же соблюда́ше всѧ̑ глаго́лы сїѧ̑, слага́ющи въ се́рдцы свое́мъ.

²⁰

And the shepherds returned, glorifying and praising God for all the things that they had heard and seen, even as it was spoken unto them.

²⁰

(Заⷱ҇ ѕ҃.) И҆ возврати́шасѧ па́стырїе, сла́вѧще и҆ хва́лѧще бг҃а ѡ҆ всѣ́хъ, ꙗ҆̀же слы́шаша и҆ ви́дѣша, ꙗ҆́коже глаго́лано бы́сть къ ни̑мъ.

²¹

And when eight days were fulfilled for circumcising him, his name was called JESUS, which was so called by the angel before he was conceived in the womb.

²¹

И҆ є҆гда̀ и҆спо́лнишасѧ ѻ҆́смь дні́й, да ѡ҆брѣ́жꙋтъ є҆го̀, и҆ нареко́ша и҆́мѧ є҆мꙋ̀ і҆и҃съ, нарече́нное а҆́гг҃ломъ пре́жде да́же не зача́тсѧ во чре́вѣ.

²²

And when the days of their purification according to the law of Moses were fulfilled, they brought him up to Jerusalem, to present him to the Lord

²²

И҆ є҆гда̀ и҆спо́лнишасѧ дні́е ѡ҆чище́нїѧ є҆ю̀, по зако́нꙋ мѡѷсе́овꙋ, (Заⷱ҇ з҃.) вознесо́ста є҆го̀ во і҆ерⷭ҇ли́мъ, поста́вити є҆го̀ пред̾ гдⷭ҇емъ,

²³

(as it is written in the law of the Lord, Every male that openeth the womb shall be called holy to the Lord),

²³

ꙗ҆́коже є҆́сть пи́сано въ зако́нѣ гдⷭ҇ни: ꙗ҆́кѡ всѧ́къ младе́нецъ мꙋ́жеска по́лꙋ, разверза́ѧ ложесна̀, ст҃о гдⷭ҇еви нарече́тсѧ:

²⁴

and to offer a sacrifice according to that which is said in the law of the Lord, A pair of turtledoves, or two young pigeons.

²⁴

и҆ є҆́же да́ти же́ртвꙋ, по рече́нномꙋ въ зако́нѣ гдⷭ҇ни, два̀ гѡ́рличища и҆лѝ два̀ птєнца̀ голꙋби̑на.

²⁵

And behold, there was a man in Jerusalem, whose name was Simeon; and this man was righteous and devout, looking for the consolation of Israel: and the Holy Spirit was upon him.

²⁵

(Заⷱ҇ и҃.) И҆ сѐ, бѣ̀ человѣ́къ во і҆ерⷭ҇ли́мѣ, є҆мꙋ́же и҆́мѧ сѷмеѡ́нъ: и҆ человѣ́къ се́й пра́веденъ и҆ бл҃гочⷭ҇ти́въ, ча́ѧ оу҆тѣ́хи і҆и҃левы: и҆ дх҃ъ бѣ̀ ст҃ъ въ не́мъ.

²⁶

And it had been revealed unto him by the Holy Spirit, that he should not see death, before he had seen the Lord’s Christ.

²⁶

И҆ бѣ̀ є҆мꙋ̀ ѡ҆бѣ́щано дх҃омъ ст҃ы́мъ, не ви́дѣти сме́рти, пре́жде да́же не ви́дитъ хрⷭ҇та̀ гдⷭ҇нѧ.

²⁷

And he came in the Spirit into the temple: and when the parents brought in the child Jesus, that they might do concerning him after the custom of the law,

²⁷

И҆ прїи́де дꙋ́хомъ въ це́рковь. И҆ є҆гда̀ введо́ста роди́тєлѧ ѻ҆троча̀ і҆и҃са, сотвори́ти и҆́ма по ѡ҆бы́чаю зако́нномꙋ ѡ҆ не́мъ,

²⁸

then he received him into his arms, and blessed God, and said,

²⁸

и҆ то́й прїе́мъ є҆го̀ на рꙋкꙋ̀ своє́ю, и҆ благословѝ бг҃а, и҆ речѐ:

²⁹

Now lettest thou thy servant depart, Lord, According to thy word, in peace;

²⁹

нн҃ѣ ѿпꙋща́еши раба̀ твоего̀, влⷣко, по глаго́лꙋ твоемꙋ̀, съ ми́ромъ:

³⁰

For mine eyes have seen thy salvation,

³⁰

ꙗ҆́кѡ ви́дѣстѣ ѻ҆́чи моѝ спⷭ҇нїе твоѐ,

³¹

Which thou hast prepared before the face of all peoples;

³¹

є҆́же є҆сѝ оу҆го́товалъ пред̾ лице́мъ всѣ́хъ люде́й:

³²

A light for revelation to the Gentiles, And the glory of thy people Israel.

³²

свѣ́тъ во ѿкрове́нїе ꙗ҆зы́кѡмъ, и҆ сла́вꙋ люде́й твои́хъ і҆и҃лѧ.

³³

And Joseph and his mother were marveling at the things which were spoken concerning him;

³³

И҆ бѣ̀ і҆ѡ́сифъ и҆ мт҃и є҆гѡ̀ чꙋдѧ̑щасѧ ѡ҆ глаго́лемыхъ ѡ҆ не́мъ.

³⁴

and Simeon blessed them, and said unto Mary his mother, Behold, this child is set for the falling and the rising of many in Israel; and for a sign which is spoken against;

³⁴

И҆ благословѝ ѧ҆̀ сѷмеѡ́нъ, и҆ речѐ къ мр҃і́и мт҃ри є҆гѡ̀: сѐ лежи́тъ се́й на паде́нїе и҆ на воста́нїе мнѡ́гимъ во і҆и҃ли, и҆ въ зна́менїе пререка́емо:

³⁵

yea and a sword shall pierce through thine own soul; that thoughts out of many hearts may be revealed.

³⁵

и҆ тебѣ́ же само́й дꙋ́шꙋ про́йдетъ ѻ҆рꙋ́жїе: ꙗ҆́кѡ да ѿкры́ютсѧ ѿ мно́гихъ серде́цъ помышлє́нїѧ.

³⁶

And there was one Anna, a prophetess, the daughter of Phanuel, of the tribe of Asher (she was of a great age, having lived with a husband seven years from her virginity,

³⁶

И҆ бѣ̀ а҆́нна прⷪ҇ро́чица, дщѝ фанꙋ́илева, ѿ колѣ́на а҆си́рова: сїѧ̀ заматорѣ́вши во дне́хъ мно́зѣхъ, жи́вши съ мꙋ́жемъ се́дмь лѣ́тъ ѿ дѣ́вства своегѡ̀:

³⁷

and she was a widow of about fourscore and four years), who departed not from the temple, worshiping with fastings and supplications night and day.

³⁷

и҆ та̀ вдова̀ ꙗ҆́кѡ лѣ́тъ ѻ҆́смьдесѧтъ и҆ четы́ре, ꙗ҆́же не ѿхожда́ше ѿ це́ркве, посто́мъ и҆ моли́твами слꙋжа́щи де́нь и҆ но́щь.

³⁸

And she, coming up at that very hour, gave thanks unto the Lord, and spake of him to all them that were looking for redemption in Jerusalem.

³⁸

И҆ та̀ въ то́й ча́съ приста́вши и҆сповѣ́дашесѧ гдⷭ҇еви, и҆ глаго́лаше ѡ҆ не́мъ всѣ̑мъ ча́ющымъ и҆збавле́нїѧ во і҆ерⷭ҇ли́мѣ.

³⁹

And when they had accomplished all things that were according to the law of the Lord, they returned into Galilee, to their own city Nazareth.

³⁹

И҆ ꙗ҆́кѡ сконча́шасѧ всѧ̑ по зако́нꙋ гдⷭ҇ню, возврати́шасѧ въ галїле́ю, во гра́дъ сво́й назаре́тъ.

⁴⁰

And the child grew, and waxed strong in spirit, filled with wisdom: and the grace of God was upon him.

⁴⁰

Ѻ҆троча́ же растѧ́ше и҆ крѣплѧ́шесѧ дꙋ́хомъ, и҆сполнѧ́ѧсѧ премꙋ́дрости: и҆ бл҃года́ть бж҃їѧ бѣ̀ на не́мъ.

⁴¹

And his parents went every year to Jerusalem at the feast of the passover.

⁴¹

И҆ хожда́ста роди́тєлѧ є҆гѡ̀ на всѧ́ко лѣ́то во і҆ерⷭ҇ли́мъ въ пра́здникъ па́схи.

⁴²

And when he was twelve years old, they went up to Jerusalem after the custom of the feast;

⁴²

И҆ є҆гда̀ бы́сть двоюна́десѧти лѣ̑тꙋ, восходѧ́щымъ и҆̀мъ во і҆ерⷭ҇ли́мъ по ѡ҆бы́чаю пра́здника,

⁴³

and when they had fulfilled the days, as they were returning, the boy Jesus tarried behind in Jerusalem; and Joseph and his mother knew it not;

⁴³

и҆ сконча́вшымъ дни̑, и҆ возвраща́ющымсѧ и҆̀мъ, ѡ҆ста̀ ѻ҆́трокъ і҆и҃съ во і҆ерⷭ҇ли́мѣ: и҆ не разꙋмѣ̀ і҆ѡ́сифъ и҆ мт҃и є҆гѡ̀:

⁴⁴

but supposing him to be in the company, they went a day’s journey; and they sought for him among their kinsfolk and among their acquaintance:

⁴⁴

мнѣ̑вша же є҆го̀ въ дрꙋжи́нѣ сꙋ́ща, преидо́ста днѐ пꙋ́ть, и҆ и҆ска́ста є҆го̀ во сро́дницѣхъ и҆ въ зна́емыхъ:

⁴⁵

and when they found him not, they returned to Jerusalem, seeking him.

⁴⁵

и҆ не ѡ҆брѣ̑тша є҆го̀, возврати́стасѧ во і҆ерⷭ҇ли́мъ, взыска̑юща є҆го̀.

⁴⁶

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:

⁴⁶

И҆ бы́сть по трїе́хъ дне́хъ, ѡ҆брѣто́ста є҆го̀ въ це́ркви, сѣдѧ́щаго посредѣ̀ оу҆чи́телей, и҆ послꙋ́шающаго и҆́хъ, и҆ вопроша́ющаго и҆̀хъ:

⁴⁷

and all that heard him were amazed at his understanding and his answers.

⁴⁷

оу҆жаса́хꙋсѧ же всѝ послꙋ́шающїи є҆гѡ̀ ѡ҆ ра́зꙋмѣ и҆ ѡ҆ ѿвѣ́тѣхъ є҆гѡ̀.

⁴⁸

And when they saw him, they were astonished; and his mother said unto him, Son, why hast thou thus dealt with us? behold, thy father and I sought thee sorrowing.

⁴⁸

И҆ ви̑дѣвша є҆го̀, диви́стасѧ: и҆ къ немꙋ̀ мт҃и є҆гѡ̀ речѐ: ча́до, что̀ сотворѝ на́ма та́кѡ; сѐ ѻ҆те́цъ тво́й и҆ а҆́зъ болѧ̑ща и҆ска́хома тебѐ.

⁴⁹

And he said unto them, How is it that ye sought me? knew ye not that I must be in my Father’s house?

⁴⁹

И҆ речѐ къ ни́ма: что̀ ꙗ҆́кѡ и҆ска́ста менѐ; не вѣ́ста ли, ꙗ҆́кѡ въ тѣ́хъ, ꙗ҆̀же ѻ҆ц҃а̀ моегѡ̀, досто́итъ бы́ти мѝ;

⁵⁰

And they understood not the saying which he spake unto them.

⁵⁰

И҆ та̑ не разꙋмѣ́ста глаго́ла, є҆го́же глаго́ла и҆́ма.

⁵¹

And he went down with them, and came to Nazareth; and he was subject unto them: and his mother kept all these sayings in her heart.

⁵¹

И҆ сни́де съ ни́ма, и҆ прїи́де въ назаре́тъ: и҆ бѣ̀ повинꙋ́ѧсѧ и҆́ма. И҆ мт҃и є҆гѡ̀ соблюда́ше всѧ̑ глаго́лы сїѧ̑ въ се́рдцы свое́мъ.

⁵²

And Jesus advanced in wisdom and stature, and in favor with God and men.

⁵²

И҆ і҆и҃съ преспѣва́ше премⷣростїю и҆ во́зрастомъ и҆ блгⷣтїю оу҆ бг҃а и҆ человѣ̑къ.
