the lineage of David, <A name="6"></a><span class="reftext"><a href="/parallel/luke/2-5.htm#aramaic"><b>5</b></a></span>With Maryam his bride when she was pregnant, that he might be registered there. <A name="7"></a><span class="reftext"><a href="/parallel/luke/2-6.htm#aramaic"><b>6</b></a></span>And it was, that while they were there, the days were completed for her to give birth. <A

the region lodging there and they kept the nightly watch over their flocks; <A name="10"></a><span class="reftext"><a href="/parallel/luke/2-9.htm#aramaic"><b>9</b></a></span>And behold, the Angel of

to God, and they were saying:<p> <A name="15"></a><span class="reftext"><a href="/parallel/luke/2-14.htm#aramaic"><b>14</b></a></span>“Glory to God in Heaven, and upon earth peace, Good News to the children of men.”<p> <A name="16"></a><span class="reftext"><a href="/parallel/luke/2-15.htm#aramaic"><b>15</b></a></span>It was that as the Angels went from them into Heaven, the shepherds spoke one

before THE LORD JEHOVAH, <A name="24"></a><span class="reftext"><a href="/parallel/luke/2-23.htm#aramaic"><b>23</b></a></span>As it is written in the law of THE LORD JEHOVAH, “Every male who opens the

JEHOVAH. <A name="28"></a><span class="reftext"><a href="/parallel/luke/2-27.htm#aramaic"><b>27</b></a></span>This one had come by The Spirit of Holiness to The Temple, and as his parents brought The Boy Yeshua to do for him just as it was commanded in the law, <A name="29"></a><span class="reftext"><a href="/parallel/luke/2-28.htm#aramaic"><b>28</b></a></span>He took him in his arms and he blessed God and said:<p> <A name="30"></a><span class="reftext"><a href="/parallel/luke/2-29.htm#aramaic"><b>29</b></a></span>“Now send your servant in peace, my Lord, according to your word.”<p> <A

href="/parallel/luke/2-34.htm#aramaic"><b>34</b></a></span>And Shimeon blessed them and said to Maryam his mother, “Behold, This One is appointed for the fall and the rise of many in Israel and for a sign of contention.” <A name="36"></a><span class="reftext"><a href="/parallel/luke/2-35.htm#aramaic"><b>35</b></a></span>“And a lance will pass through into your soul, so that the thoughts of many hearts may be revealed.”<p> <A name="37"></a><span class="reftext"><a href="/parallel/luke/2-36.htm#aramaic"><b>36</b></a></span>And Hannah the Prophetess, daughter of Phanuel from the tribe of Asher, she was also in her old age, and had lived with her husband seven years after her virginity. <A name="38"></a><span class="reftext"><a href="/parallel/luke/2-37.htm#aramaic"><b>37</b></a></span>And she had been a widow about 84 years, and she had not departed from The Temple, and with fastings and with prayers she was serving by day and night. <A name="39"></a><span class="reftext"><a href="/parallel/luke/2-38.htm#aramaic"><b>38</b></a></span>She was also standing in it at that hour and she gave thanks to THE LORD JEHOVAH and was speaking about him with everyone who was waiting for the redemption of Jerusalem.<p> <A name="40"></a><span class="reftext"><a href="/parallel/luke/2-39.htm#aramaic"><b>39</b></a></span>And when they had finished everything according to that which is in the law of THE LORD JEHOVAH, they returned to Galilee to Nazareth their city. <A name="41"></a><span class="reftext"><a href="/parallel/luke/2-40.htm#aramaic"><b>40</b></a></span>But The Boy was

href="/parallel/luke/2-43.htm#aramaic"><b>43</b></a></span>And when the days were past, they were returning, but The Boy Yeshua had remained in Jerusalem and Yoseph and his mother did not know it. <A name="45"></a><span class="reftext"><a href="/parallel/luke/2-44.htm#aramaic"><b>44</b></a></span>For they were thinking that he was with the children of their friends, and when they had come a journey of one day, they looked for him among their people and among whoever knew them, <A name="46"></a><span class="reftext"><a href="/parallel/luke/2-45.htm#aramaic"><b>45</b></a></span>And they did not find him, and they returned again to Jerusalem and they were looking for him. <A name="47"></a><span class="reftext"><a href="/parallel/luke/2-46.htm#aramaic"><b>46</b></a></span>After three days, they found him in The Temple as he sat in the midst of the Teachers and he heard from them and he was inquiring of them. <A name="48"></a><span class="reftext"><a href="/parallel/luke/2-47.htm#aramaic"><b>47</b></a></span>And all who were listening to him were astounded at his wisdom and at his discourses. <A name="49"></a><span class="reftext"><a

Look, your father and I were looking for you with great anxiety.” <A name="50"></a><span class="reftext"><a href="/parallel/luke/2-49.htm#aramaic"><b>49</b></a></span>He said to them, “Why were you looking for me? Do you not know that it was fitting for me to be in my Father's house?” <A name="51"></a><span class="reftext"><a href="/parallel/luke/2-50.htm#aramaic"><b>50</b></a></span>But they did not understand the statement that he spoke to them. <A name="52"></a><span class="reftext"><a href="/parallel/luke/2-51.htm#aramaic"><b>51</b></a></span>And he went down with them and he came to Nazareth, and he was submitted to them; but his mother was keeping all these words in her heart.<p> <span class="reftext"><a href="/parallel/luke/2-52.htm#aramaic"><b>52</b></a></span>But Yeshua was growing in his stature and in his wisdom and in favor with God and the children of men. <p><br /></div></div><div id="botbox"><div class="padbot"><div align="center">The Peshitta Holy Bible Translated<br>Translated by Glenn David Bauscher<br>Glenn David Bauscher<br>Lulu Publishing<br>Copyright © 2018 Lulu Publishing<br>3rd edition Copyright © 2019<span class="p"><br /><br /></span></div></div></div></div></td></tr></table></div><div id="left"><a href="../luke/1.htm" onmouseover='lft.src="/leftgif.png"' onmouseout='lft.src="/left.png"' title="Luke 1"><img src="/left.png" name="lft" border="0" alt="Luke 1" /></a></div><div id="right"><a href="../luke/3.htm" onmouseover='rght.src="/rightgif.png"' onmouseout='rght.src="/right.png"' title="Luke 3"><img src="/right.png" name="rght" border="0" alt="Luke 3" /></a></div><div id="botleft"><a href="#" onmouseover='botleft.src="/botleftgif.png"' onmouseout='botleft.src="/botleft.png"' title="Top of Page"><img src="/botleft.png" name="botleft" border="0" alt="Top of Page" /></a></div><div id="botright"><a href="#" onmouseover='botright.src="/botrightgif.png"' onmouseout='botright.src="/botright.png"' title="Top of Page"><img src="/botright.png" name="botright" border="0" alt="Top of Page" /></a></div><div id="bot"><iframe width="100%" height="1500" scrolling="no" src="/botmenubhchapnoad.htm" frameborder="0"></iframe></div></td></tr></table></div></body></html>
