[[new testament:interlinear:Luke2-2|2]] (//And//)] this taxing was first made when Cyrenius was governor of Syria.) [[new testament:interlinear:Luke2-3|3]] And all went to be taxed, every one into his own city. [[new testament:interlinear:Luke2-4|4]] And Joseph also went up from Galilee, out of the city of Nazareth, into Judaea, to the city of David, which is called Bethlehem; (because he was of the house and lineage of David:) [[new testament:interlinear:Luke2-5|5]] To be taxed with Mary his espoused wife, being great with child. [[new testament:interlinear:Luke2-6|6]] And so it was, that, while they were there, the days were accomplished that she should be delivered. [[new testament:interlinear:Luke2-7|7]] And she brought forth her firstborn son, and wrapped him in swaddling clothes, and laid him in a manger; because there was no room for them in the inn. [[new testament:interlinear:Luke2-8|8]] And there were in the same country shepherds abiding in the field, keeping watch over their flock by night. [[new testament:interlinear:Luke2-9|9]] And, lo, the angel of the Lord came upon them, and the glory of the Lord shone round about them: and they were sore afraid. [[new testament:interlinear:Luke2-10|10]] And the angel said to them, Fear not: for, behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy, which shall be to all people. [[new testament:interlinear:Luke2-11|11]] For to you is born this day in the city of David a Saviour, which is Christ the Lord. [[new testament:interlinear:Luke2-12|12]] And this [(//shall be//)] a sign to you; You shall find the babe wrapped in swaddling clothes, lying in a manger. [[new testament:interlinear:Luke2-13|13]] And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising God, and saying, [[new testament:interlinear:Luke2-14|14]] Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good will toward men. [[new testament:interlinear:Luke2-15|15]] And it came to pass, as the angels were gone away 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. [[new testament:interlinear:Luke2-16|16]] And they came with haste, and found Mary, and Joseph, and the babe lying in a manger. [[new testament:interlinear:Luke2-17|17]] And when they had seen [(//it//)], they made known abroad the saying which was told them concerning this child. [[new testament:interlinear:Luke2-18|18]] And all they that heard [(//it//)] wondered at those things which were told them by the shepherds. [[new testament:interlinear:Luke2-19|19]] But Mary kept all these things, and pondered [(//them//)] in her heart. [[new testament:interlinear:Luke2-20|20]] And the shepherds returned, glorifying and praising God for all the things that they had heard and seen, as it was told to them. [[new testament:interlinear:Luke2-21|21]] And when eight days were accomplished for the circumcising of the child, his name was called JESUS, which was so named of the angel before he was conceived in the womb. [[new testament:interlinear:Luke2-22|22]] 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; [[new testament:interlinear:Luke2-23|23]] (As it is written in the law of the Lord, Every male that opens the womb shall be called holy to the Lord;) [[new testament:interlinear:Luke2-24|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. [[new testament:interlinear:Luke2-25|25]] 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 Ghost was upon him. [[new testament:interlinear:Luke2-26|26]] And it was revealed to him by the Holy Ghost, that he should not see death, before he had seen the Lord's Christ. [[new testament:interlinear:Luke2-27|27]] 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, [[new testament:interlinear:Luke2-28|28]] Then took he him up in his arms, and blessed God, and said, [[new testament:interlinear:Luke2-29|29]] Lord, now let you your servant depart in peace, according to your word: [[new testament:interlinear:Luke2-30|30]] For mine eyes have seen your salvation, [[new testament:interlinear:Luke2-31|31]] Which you hast prepared before the face of all people; [[new testament:interlinear:Luke2-32|32]] A light to lighten the Gentiles, and the glory of your people Israel. [[new testament:interlinear:Luke2-33|33]] And Joseph and his mother marvelled at those things which were spoken of him. [[new testament:interlinear:Luke2-34|34]] 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; [[new testament:interlinear:Luke2-35|35]] (Yea, a sword shall pierce through your own soul also,) that the thoughts of many hearts may be revealed. [[new testament:interlinear:Luke2-36|36]] And there was one Anna, a prophetess, the daughter of Phanuel, of the tribe of Aser: she was of a great age, and had lived with an husband seven years from her virginity; [[new testament:interlinear:Luke2-37|37]] And she [(//was//)] a widow of about fourscore and four years, which departed not from the temple, but served [(//God//)] with fastings and prayers night and day. [[new testament:interlinear:Luke2-38|38]] 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. [[new testament:interlinear:Luke2-39|39]] And when they had performed all things according to the law of the Lord, they returned into Galilee, to their own city Nazareth. [[new testament:interlinear:Luke2-40|40]] And the child grew, and waxed strong in spirit, filled with wisdom: and the grace of God was upon him. [[new testament:interlinear:Luke2-41|41]] Now his parents went to Jerusalem every year at the feast of the passover. [[new testament:interlinear:Luke2-42|42]] And when he was twelve years old, they went up to Jerusalem after the custom of the feast. [[new testament:interlinear:Luke2-43|43]] 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//. [[new testament:interlinear:Luke2-44|44]] But they, supposing him to have been in the company, went a day's journey; and they sought him among [(//their//)] kinsfolk and acquaintance. [[new testament:interlinear:Luke2-45|45]] And when they found him not, they turned back again to Jerusalem, seeking him. [[new testament:interlinear:Luke2-46|46]] 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. [[new testament:interlinear:Luke2-47|47]] And all that heard him were astonished at his understanding and answers. [[new testament:interlinear:Luke2-48|48]] And when they saw him, they were amazed: and his mother said to him, Son, why hast you thus dealt with us? behold, your father and I have sought you sorrowing. [[new testament:interlinear:Luke2-49|49]] And he said to them, How is it that you sought me? wist you not that I must be about my Father's business? [[new testament:interlinear:Luke2-50|50]] And they understood not the saying which he spoke to them. [[new testament:interlinear:Luke2-51|51]] 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. [[new testament:interlinear:Luke2-52|52]] And Jesus increased in wisdom and stature, and in favour with God and man. ---- [[http://christopedia.eu|{{:new_testament:matthew:matthew:chapters:home-icon.png?15|home}}]] Chapters: [[new testament:luke:luke:chapters:chapter1|1]] [[new testament:luke:luke:chapters:chapter2|2]] [[new testament:luke:luke:chapters:chapter3|3]] [[new testament:luke:luke:chapters:chapter4|4]] [[new testament:luke:luke:chapters:chapter5|5]] [[new testament:luke:luke:chapters:chapter6|6]] [[new testament:luke:luke:chapters:chapter7|7]] [[new testament:luke:luke:chapters:chapter8|8]] [[new testament:luke:luke:chapters:chapter9|9]] [[new testament:luke:luke:chapters:chapter10|10]] [[new testament:luke:luke:chapters:chapter11|11]] [[new testament:luke:luke:chapters:chapter12|12]] [[new testament:luke:luke:chapters:chapter13|13]] [[new testament:luke:luke:chapters:chapter14|14]] [[new testament:luke:luke:chapters:chapter15|15]] [[new testament:luke:luke:chapters:chapter16|16]] [[new testament:luke:luke:chapters:chapter17|17]] [[new testament:luke:luke:chapters:chapter18|18]] [[new testament:luke:luke:chapters:chapter19|19]] [[new testament:luke:luke:chapters:chapter20|20]] [[new testament:luke:luke:chapters:chapter21|21]] [[new testament:luke:luke:chapters:chapter22|22]] [[new testament:luke:luke:chapters:chapter23|23]] [[new testament:luke:luke:chapters:chapter24|24]] {{like>}}
