¹But 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.

¹A stalo sa v tých dňoch, že vyšiel rozkaz od cisára Augusta, aby bol popísaný celý svet.

²The census itself first took place when Cyrenius had the government of Syria.

²(Tento prvý popis sa udial vtedy, keď bol Cyrenius vladárom nad Sýriou).

³And all went to be inscribed in the census roll, each to his own city:

³A išli všetci, aby sa zapísali, každý do svojho vlastného mesta.

⁴and 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,

⁴A tak odišiel aj Jozef od Galilee z mesta Nazareta hore do Judska, do mesta Dávidovho, ktoré sa volá Betlehem, pretože bol z domu a z čeľade Dávidovej,

⁵to be inscribed in the census roll with Mary who was betrothed to him [as his] wife, she being great with child.

⁵aby sa zapísal s Máriou, sebe zasnúbenou manželkou tehotnou.

⁶And it came to pass, while they were there, the days of her giving birth [to her child] were fulfilled,

⁶A stalo sa, keď tam boli, že sa naplnily dni aby porodila.

⁷and 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.

⁷A porodila svojho prvorodeného syna a zavinula ho do plienok a uložila ho v jasliach, pretože nemali miesta v uchýlišti.

⁸And there were shepherds in that country abiding without, and keeping watch by night over their flock.

⁸A pastieri boli v tom istom kraji nocujúc na poli a zamieňajúc sa po strážach strážili vnoci nad svojím stádom.

⁹And 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.

⁹A hľa, razom sa postavil anjel Pánov vedľa nich, a sláva Pánova ich osvietila, a báli sa veľkou bázňou.

¹⁰And 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;

¹⁰Ale anjel im povedal: Nebojte sa, lebo hľa, zvestujem vám velikú radosť, ktorá bude všetkému ľudu,

¹¹for to-day a Saviour has been born to you in David's city, who is Christ [the] Lord.

¹¹lebo narodil sa vám dnes Spasiteľ, ktorý je Kristus, Pán, v meste Dávidovom.

¹²And this is the sign to you: ye shall find a babe wrapped in swaddling-clothes, and lying in a manger.

¹²A toto vám bude znamením: najdete nemluvniatko zavinuté v plienkach a ležiace v jasliach.

¹³And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host, praising God and saying,

¹³A zrazu sa zjavilo s anjelom množstvo nebeského vojska chváliacich Boha a hovoriacich:

¹⁴Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good pleasure in men.

¹⁴Sláva na výsostiach Bohu a na zemi pokoj, v ľuďoch zaľúbenie!

¹⁵And 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.

¹⁵A stalo sa, keď odišli od nich anjeli do neba, že si povedali mužovia, tí pastieri: Nože poďme až do Betlehema a vidzme, čo sa to stalo, čo nám to oznámil Pán!

¹⁶And they came with haste, and found both Mary and Joseph, and the babe lying in the manger;

¹⁶A prišli poponáhľajúc sa a našli Máriu i Jozefa i nemluvniatko, ležiace v jasliach.

¹⁷and having seen [it] they made known about the country the thing which had been said to them concerning this child.

¹⁷A keď uvideli, rozhlasovali všade, čo im bolo hovorené o tom dieťatku.

¹⁸And all who heard [it] wondered at the things said to them by the shepherds.

¹⁸A všetci, ktorí to počuli, divili sa tomu, čo im bolo hovorené od pastierov.

¹⁹But Mary kept all these things [in her mind], pondering [them] in her heart.

¹⁹Ale Mária zachovávala všetky tie slová a uvažovala o nich vo svojom srdci.

²⁰And the shepherds returned, glorifying and praising God for all things which they had heard and seen, as it had been said to them.

²⁰A pastieri sa navrátili oslavujúc a chváliac Boha za všetko, čo počuli a videli, tak ako im to bolo hovorené.

²¹And 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.

²¹A keď sa naplnilo osem dní, aby bolo obrezané dieťatko, nazvali jeho meno Ježiš, ktorým bolo nazvané od anjela, prv ako sa bolo počalo v živote.

²²And 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

²²A keď sa naplnily dni jej očisťovania podľa zákona Mojžišovho, doniesli ho hore do Jeruzalema, aby ho predstavili Pánovi,

²³(as it is written in the law of [the] Lord: Every male that opens the womb shall be called holy to the Lord),

²³jako je napísané v zákone Pánovom, že všetko mužského pohlavia, čo otvára život, bude sa volať svätým Pánovi,

²⁴and to offer a sacrifice according to what is said in the law of [the] Lord: A pair of turtle doves, or two young pigeons.

²⁴a aby dali obeť podľa toho, čo je povedané v zákone Pánovom: dvoje hrdličiek alebo dve holúbätá.

²⁵And 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.

²⁵A hľa, bol v Jeruzaleme človek, ktorému bolo meno Simeon. Bol to človek spravedlivý a pobožný, očakávajúci potešenie Izraelovo, a Svätý Duch bol na ňom.

²⁶And it was divinely communicated to him by the Holy Spirit, that he should not see death before he should see [the] Lord's Christ.

²⁶A bolo mu zjavené od Svätého Ducha, že neuzrie smrti prv, ako by uvidel Krista Pánovho.

²⁷And 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,

²⁷A prišiel v Duchu do chrámu. A keď uvodili rodičia dieťatko Ježiša, aby vzťahom na neho urobili podľa obyčaje zákona,

²⁸*he* received him into his arms, and blessed God, and said,

²⁸vzal ho na ramená a dobrorečil Bohu a povedal:

²⁹Lord, now thou lettest thy bondman go, according to thy word, in peace;

²⁹Teraz prepúšťaš svojho služobníka, Samovládca, podľa svojho slova, v pokoji,

³⁰for mine eyes have seen thy salvation,

³⁰lebo moje oči videly tvoje spasenie,

³¹which thou hast prepared before the face of all peoples;

³¹ktoré si prihotovil pred tvárou všetkých ľudí,

³²a light for revelation of [the] Gentiles and [the] glory of thy people Israel.

³²svetlo na zjavenie národom a slávu svojho ľudu Izraela.

³³And his father and mother wondered at the things which were said concerning him.

³³A Jozef a jeho matka sa divili tomu, čo sa hovorilo o ňom.

³⁴And 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;

³⁴A Simeon ich požehnal a povedal Márii, jeho matke: Hľa, tento je položený na pád a na povstanie mnohých v Izraelovi a na znamenie, ktorému budú protirečiť -

³⁵(and even a sword shall go through thine own soul;) so that [the] thoughts may be revealed from many hearts.

³⁵aj tvoju vlastnú dušu prenikne meč -, aby boli zjavené myšlienky z mnohých sŕdc.

³⁶And 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,

³⁶A bola istá Anna, prorokyňa, dcéra Fanuelova, z pokolenia Aserovho, pokročilá vo mnohých dňoch, ktorá žila s mužom sedem rokov od svojho panenstva.

³⁷and herself a widow up to eighty-four years; who did not depart from the temple, serving night and day with fastings and prayers;

³⁷A tá bola vdovou až do osemdesiatich štyroch rokov, ktorá neodchádzala z chrámu pôstami a prosbami slúžiac Bohu dňom i nocou.

³⁸and she coming up the same hour gave praise to the Lord, and spoke of him to all those who waited for redemption in Jerusalem.

³⁸Tá prišla v tú istú hodinu a chválila Boha a vravela o ňom všetkým, ktorí očakávali vykúpenie v Jeruzaleme.

³⁹And when they had completed all things according to the law of [the] Lord, they returned to Galilee to their own city Nazareth.

³⁹A keď vykonali všetko podľa zákona Pánovho, navrátili sa do Galilee, do svojho mesta, Nazareta.

⁴⁰And the child grew and waxed strong [in spirit], filled with wisdom, and God's grace was upon him.

⁴⁰A dieťatko rástlo a silnelo duchom, plnené súc múdrosťou, a milosť Božia bola obrátená naň.

⁴¹And his parents went yearly to Jerusalem at the feast of the passover.

⁴¹A jeho rodičia chodievali každého roku na veľkonočný sviatok hore do Jeruzalema.

⁴²And when he was twelve years old, and they went up [to Jerusalem] according to the custom of the feast

⁴²A keď mu bolo dvanásť rokov, a keď išli oni hore do Jeruzalema podľa obyčaje toho sviatku

⁴³and had completed the days, as they returned, the boy Jesus remained behind in Jerusalem, and his parents knew not [of it];

⁴³a keď potom vybudli tam tie dni a vracali sa domov, chlapec Ježiš zostal v Jeruzaleme, a Jozef a jeho matka nevedeli o tom.

⁴⁴but, supposing him to be in the company that journeyed together, they went a day's journey, and sought him among their relations and acquaintances:

⁴⁴Ale domnievajúc sa, že je medzi spolucestujúcimi, odišli deň cesty a hľadali ho medzi príbuznými a známymi.

⁴⁵and not having found him they returned to Jerusalem seeking him.

⁴⁵A keď ho nenašli, vrátili sa do Jeruzalema a hľadali ho.

⁴⁶And 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.

⁴⁶A stalo sa po troch dňoch, že ho našli v chráme sedieť medzi učiteľmi počúvať ich a opytovať sa ich.

⁴⁷And all who heard him were astonished at his understanding and answers.

⁴⁷A všetci, ktorí ho počúvali, žasli nad jeho rozumnosťou a nad jeho odpoveďami.

⁴⁸And 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.

⁴⁸A keď ho uvideli, užasli, a jeho matka mu povedala: Dieťa, čo si nám to tak urobil? Hľa, tvoj otec i ja sme ťa s bolesťou hľadali.

⁴⁹And 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?

⁴⁹A on im povedal: Čo to, že ste ma hľadali? Či ste nevedeli, že musím byť vo veciach svojho Otca?

⁵⁰And they understood not the thing that he said to them.

⁵⁰Ale oni nerozumeli slovu, ktoré im hovoril.

⁵¹And 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.

⁵¹A odišiel s nimi dolu a prišiel do Nazareta a poddával sa im. A jeho matka zachovávala všetky tie reči vo svojom srdci.

⁵²And Jesus advanced in wisdom and stature, and in favour with God and men.

⁵²A Ježiš prospieval múdrosťou a vzrastom a milosťou u Boha aj u ľudí.
