1And it came to pass that in those days there went out a decree from Caesar Augustus that the whole world should be enrolled.Di quei giorni uscì un editto di Cesare Augusto, che si facesse il censo di tutto il mondo.AND it came to passe, in those daies there came forth an edict from Caesar Augustus, that the vvhole vvorld should be enrolled.Factum est autem in diebus illis, exiit edictum a Cæsare Augusto ut describeretur universus orbis. 2This enrolling was first made by Cyrinus, the governor of Syria.Questo primo censo fu fatto da Cirino preside della Siria.This first enrolling vvas made by the President of Syria Cyrinus.Hæc descriptio prima facta est a præside Syriæ Cyrino: 3And all went to be enrolled, every one into his own city.E andavano tutti a dare il nome ciascheduno alla sua città.And al vvent to be enrolled, euery one into his ovvne citie.et ibant omnes ut profiterentur singuli in suam civitatem. 4And 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.E andò anche Giuseppe da Nazaret città della Galilea alla città di David, chiamata Betlem nella Giudea, per essere egli della casa, e famiglia di David,And Ioseph also vvent vp from Galilee out of the citie of Nazareth into Ievvrie, to the citie of Dauid that is called Beth•lehem: for-because he vvas of the house and familie of Dauid,Ascendit autem et Joseph a Galilæa de civitate Nazareth in Judæam, in civitatem David, quæ vocatur Bethlehem: eo quod esset de domo et familia David, 5To be enrolled with Mary his espoused wife, who was with child.A dare il nome insieme con Maria sposata a lui in consorte, la quale era incinta.to be enrolled vvith MARIE his despoused vvife that vvas vvith childe.ut profiteretur cum Maria desponsata sibi uxore prægnante. 6And it came to pass that when they were there, her days were accomplished that she should be delivered.E avvenne, che, mentre quivi si trovavano, giunse per lei il tempo di partorire.And it came to passe, vvhen they vvere there, her daies vvere fully come that she should be deliuered.Factum est autem, cum essent ibi, impleti sunt dies ut pareret. 7And she brought forth her first born son and wrapped him up in swaddling clothes and laid him in a manger: because there was no room for them in the inn.E partorì il figlio suo primogenito, e lo fasciò, e lo pose a giacere in una mangiatoia; perché non eravi luogo per essi nell'albergo.And she brought forth her first begotten sonne, and svvadled him in clothes, and laid him dovvne in a manger: because there vvas not place for them in the inne.Et peperit filium suum primogenitum, et pannis eum involvit, et reclinavit eum in præsepio: quia non erat eis locus in diversorio.

8And there were in the same country shepherds watching and keeping the night watches over their flock.Ed eranvi nella stessa regione de' pastori, che vegliavano, e facean di notte la ronda attorno al lor gregge.And there vvere in the same countrie shepheards vvatching, and keeping the night vvatches ouer their flocke.Et pastores erant in regione eadem vigilantes, et custodientes vigilias noctis super gregem suum. 9And behold an angel of the Lord stood by them and the brightness of God shone round about them: and they feared with a great fear.Quand'ecco sopraggiunse vicino a essi l'Angelo del Signore, e uno splendore divino gli abbarbagliò, e furono presi da gran timore.And behold, an Angel of our Lord stood beside them, and the brightnes of God did shine round about them, and they feared vvith a great feare.Et ecce angelus Domini stetit juxta illos, et claritas Dei circumfulsit illos, et timuerunt timore magno. 10And the angel said to them: Fear not; for, behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy that shall be to all the people:E l'Angelo disse loro: Non temete: imperocché eccomi a recare a voi la nuova di una grande allegrezza, che avrà tutto il popolo:And the angel said to them, Feare not: for behold I euangelize to you great ioy, that shal be to al the people:Et dixit illis angelus: Nolite timere: ecce enim evangelizo vobis gaudium magnum, quod erit omni populo: 11For, this day is born to you a Saviour, who is Christ the Lord, in the city of David.Perché è nato oggi a voi un Salvatore, che è il Cristo Signore, nella città di David.because this day is borne to you a SAVIOVR vvhich is Christ our Lord, in the citie of Dauid.quia natus est vobis hodie Salvator, qui est Christus Dominus, in civitate David. 12And this shall be a sign unto you. You shall find the infant wrapped in swaddling clothes and laid in a manger.Ed eccovene il segnale: troverete un bambino avvolto in fasce, giacente in una mangiatoia.And this shal be a signe to you, You shal finde the infant svvadled in clothes: and laid in a manger.Et hoc vobis signum: invenietis infantem pannis involutum, et positum in præsepio. 13And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly army, praising God and saying:E subitamente si unì coll'Angelo una schiera della celestiale milizia, che lodava Dio, dicendo:And sodenly there vvas vvith the Angel a multitude of the heauenly armie, praising God, and saying,Et subito facta est cum angelo multitudo militiæ cælestis laudantium Deum, et dicentium: 14Glory to God in the highest: and on earth peace to men of good will.Gloria a Dio nel più alto de' cieli, e pace in terra agli uomini di buon volere.Glorie in the highest to God: and in earth peace to Amen of good vvil.Gloria in altissimis Deo, / et in terra pax hominibus bonæ voluntatis.

15And it came to pass, after the angels departed from them into heaven, the shepherds said one to another: Let us go over to Bethlehem and let us see this word that is come to pass, which the Lord hath shewed to us.E dopo che gli Angeli si furono ritirati da loro verso il cielo, i pastori presero a dire tra di loro: Andiamo sino a Betlemme a vedere quello, che è ivi accaduto, come il Signore ci ha manifestato.And it came to passe: after the Angels departed from them into heauen, the shepheards spake one to an other: Let vs goe ouer to Bethlehem, and let vs see this vvord that is done, vvhich our Lord hath shevved to vs.Et factum est, ut discesserunt ab eis angeli in cælum: pastores loquebantur ad invicem: Transeamus usque Bethlehem, et videamus hoc verbum, quod factum est, quod Dominus ostendit nobis. 16And they came with haste: and they found Mary and Joseph, and the infant lying in the manger.E andarono con prestezza: e trovarono Maria, e Giuseppe, e il Bambino giacente nella mangiatoia.And they came vvith speede: and they found MARIE and Ioseph, and the infant laid in the manger.Et venerunt festinantes: et invenerunt Mariam, et Joseph, et infantem positum in præsepio. 17And seeing, they understood of the word that had been spoken to them concerning this child.E vedutolo, intesero quanto era stato detto loro di quel Bambino.And seeing it, they vnderstood of the vvord that had been spoken to them concerning this childe.Videntes autem cognoverunt de verbo, quod dictum erat illis de puero hoc. 18And all that heard wondered: and at those things that were told them by the shepherds.E tutti quelli, che ne sentirono parlare, restarono maravigliati delle cose, che erano state riferite loro dai pastori.And al that heard, did maruel: and concerning those things that vvere reported to them by the shepheards.Et omnes qui audierunt, mirati sunt: et de his quæ dicta erant a pastoribus ad ipsos. 19But Mary kept all these words, pondering them in her heart.Maria però di tutte queste cose facea conserva, paragonandole in cuor suo.But MARIE kept al these vvordes, conferring them in her hart.Maria autem conservabat omnia verba hæc, conferens in corde suo. 20And the shepherds returned, glorifying and praising God for all the things they had heard and seen, as it was told unto them.E i pastori se ne ritornarono glorificando, e lodando Dio per tutto quello, che udito avevano, e veduto, conforme era stato ad essi predetto.And the shepheards returned, glorifying and praysing God in al things that they had heard, and seen, as it vvas said to them.Et reversi sunt pastores glorificantes et laudantes Deum in omnibus quæ audierant et viderant, sicut dictum est ad illos.

21And after eight days were accomplished, that the child should be circumcised, his name was called JESUS, which was called by the angel before he was conceived in the womb.E compiti, che furono gli otto giorni per fare la circoncisione del bambino, gli fu posto nome GESÙ, conforme era stato nominato dall'Angelo prima di essere concepito.And after eight daies vvere expired, that the childe should be circuncised: his name vvas called IESVS, vvhich vvas called by the Angel, before that he vvas conceiued in the vvombe.Et postquam consummati sunt dies octo, ut circumcideretur puer, vocatum est nomen ejus Jesus, quod vocatum est ab angelo priusquam in utero conciperetur. 22And after the days of her purification, according to the law of Moses, were accomplished, they carried him to Jerusalem, to present him to the Lord:E venuto il tempo della purificazione di lei secondo la legge di Mosè, lo portarono a Gerusalemme, affine di presentarlo al Signore,And after the daies vvere fully ended of her purification according to the lavv of Moyses, they caried him into Hierusalem, to present him to our Lord (Et postquam impleti sunt dies purgationis ejus secundum legem Moysi, tulerunt illum in Jerusalem, ut sisterent eum Domino, 23As it is written in the law of the Lord: Every male opening the womb shall be called holy to the Lord:Secondo quello, che sta scritto nella legge del Signore: Qualunque maschio primogenito sarà consagrato al Signore:as it is vvritten in the lavv of our Lord, That euery male opening the matrice, shal be called holy to the Lord.)sicut scriptum est in lege Domini: Quia omne masculinum adaperiens vulvam, sanctum Domino vocabitur: 24And to offer a sacrifice, according as it is written in the law of the Lord, a pair of turtledoves or two young pigeons:E per fare l'offerta, conforme sta scritto nella legge del Signore, un paio di tortore, o due colombini.and to giue a sacrifice according as it is vvritten in the lavv of our Lord, a paire of turtles, or tvvo yong pigeons.et ut darent hostiam secundum quod dictum est in lege Domini, par turturum, aut duos pullos columbarum. 25And behold there was a man in Jerusalem named Simeon: and this man was just and devout, waiting for the consolation of Israel. And the Holy Ghost was in him.Era allora in Gerusalemme un uomo chiamato Simeone: e quest'uomo giusto, e timorato, che aspettava la consolazione di Israele; ed era in lui lo Spirito santo.And behold, there vvas a man in Hierusalem, named Simeon, and this man vvas iust and religious, expecting the consolation of Israel: and the Holy Ghost vvas in him.Et ecce homo erat in Jerusalem, cui nomen Simeon, et homo iste justus, et timoratus, exspectans consolationem Israël: et Spiritus Sanctus erat in eo.

26And he had received an answer from the Holy Ghost, that he should not see death before he had seen the Christ of the Lord.Ed eragli stato rivelato dallo Spirito santo, che non avrebbe veduto morte, prima di vedere il Cristo del Signore.And he had receiued an ansvver of the Holy Ghost, that he should not see death vnles he savv first the CHRIST of our Lord.Et responsum acceperat a Spiritu Sancto, non visurum se mortem, nisi prius videret Christum Domini. 27And he came by the Spirit into the temple. And when his parents brought in the child Jesus, to do for him according to the custom of the law,E condotto dallo spirito di Dio andò al tempio. E quando i genitori vi introdussero il bambino Gesù, per fare rispetto a lui il consueto secondo la legge:And he came in spirit into the temple. And vvhen his parents brought in the childe IESVS, to doe according to the custome of the Lavv for him:Et venit in spiritu in templum. Et cum inducerent puerum Jesum parentes ejus, ut facerent secundum consuetudinem legis pro eo, 28He also took him into his arms and blessed God and saidEgli se lo prese tra le sue braccia, e benedisse Dio, e disse:he also tooke him into his armes, and blessed God, and said,et ipse accepit eum in ulnas suas: et benedixit Deum, et dixit: 29Now thou dost dismiss thy servant, O Lord, according to thy word in peace:Adesso lascerai, o Signore, che se ne vada in pace il tuo servo secondo la tua parola:NOW THOV doest dimisse thy seruant O Lord, according to thy vvord in peace.Nunc dimittis servum tuum Domine, / secundum verbum tuum in pace: 30Because my eyes have seen thy salvation,Perché gli occhi miei hanno veduto il Salvatore dato da te,Because mine eies haue seen, thy SALVATION,quia viderunt oculi mei salutare tuum, 31Which thou hast prepared before the face of all peoples:Il quale è stato esposto da te al cospetto di tutti i popoli;Vvhich thou hast prepared before the face of al peoples:quod parasti ante faciem omnium populorum: 32A light to the revelation of the Gentiles and the glory of thy people Israel.Luce a illuminare le nazioni, e a gloria del popolo tuo Israele.A light to the reuelation of the Gentils, and the glorie of thy people Israel.lumen ad revelationem gentium, / et gloriam plebis tuæ Israël. 33And his father and mother were wondering at those things which were spoken concerning him.E il padre, e la madre di Gesù restavano maravigliati delle cose, che di lui si dicevano.And his father and mother vvere marueling vpon those things vvhich vvere spoken concerning him.Et erat pater ejus et mater mirantes super his quæ dicebantur de illo.

34And Simeon blessed them and said to Mary his mother: Behold this child is set for the fall and for the resurrection of many in Israel and for a sign which shall be contradicted.E Simeone li benedisse, e disse a Maria sua madre: Ecco che questi è posto per ruina, e per risurrezione di molti in Israele, e per bersaglio alla contraddizione:And Simeon blessed them, and said to MARIE his mother, Behold this is set vnto the ruine, and vnto the resurrection of many in Israel, and for a signe vvhich shal be contradicted,Et benedixit illis Simeon, et dixit ad Mariam matrem ejus: Ecce positus est hic in ruinam et in resurrectionem multorum in Israël, et in signum cui contradicetur: 35And thy own soul a sword shall pierce, that, out of many hearts thoughts may be revealed.E anche l'anima tua stessa sarà, trapassata dal coltello, affinchè di molti cuori restino disvelati i pensieri.and thine ovvne soule shal a svvord pearce, that out of many hartes cogitations may be reuealed.et tuam ipsius animam pertransibit gladius ut revelentur ex multis cordibus cogitationes. 36And there was one Anna, a prophetess, the daughter of Phanuel, of the tribe of Aser. She was far advanced in years and had lived with her husband seven years from her virginity.Eravi anche una profetessa, Anna, figliuola di Fanuel, della tribù di Aser: ella era molto avanzata in età, ed era vissuta sette anni col suo marito, al quale erasi sposata fanciulla.And there vvas Anne a prophetisse, the daughter of Phanuel, of the tribe of Aser: she vvas farre striken in daies, and had liued vvith her husband seuen yeres from her virginitie.Et erat Anna prophetissa, filia Phanuel, de tribu Aser: hæc processerat in diebus multis, et vixerat cum viro suo annis septem a virginitate sua. 37And she was a widow until fourscore and four years: who departed not from the temple, by fastings and prayers serving night and day.Ed ella (era rimasta) vedova fino agli ottantaquattro anni: e non usciva dal tempio, servendo Dio notte, e giorno con orazioni, e digiuni.And she vvas a vvidovv vntil eightie and foure yeres: vvho departed not from the temple, by fastings and praiers seruing night and day.Et hæc vidua usque ad annos octoginta quatuor: quæ non discedebat de templo, jejuniis et obsecrationibus serviens nocte ac die. 38Now she, at the same hour, coming in, confessed to the Lord: and spoke of him to all that looked for the redemption of Israel.E questa, sopraggiungendo in quel tempo stesso, lodava anch'essa il Signore: e parlava di lui a tutti coloro, che aspettavano la redenzione d'Israele.And she at the same houre sodenly comming in, confessed to our Lord: and spake of him to al that expected the redemption of Israel.Et hæc, ipsa hora superveniens, confitebatur Domino: et loquebatur de illo omnibus, qui exspectabant redemptionem Israël.

39And after they had performed all things according to the law of the Lord, they returned into Galilee, to their city Nazareth.E soddisfatto che ebbero a tutto quello, che ordinava la legge del Signore, se ne tornarono nella Galilea alla loro città di Nazaret.And after they had vvholy done al things according to the lavv of our Lord, they returned into Galilee, into their citie Nazareth.Et ut perfecerunt omnia secundum legem Domini, reversi sunt in Galilæam in civitatem suam Nazareth. 40And the child grew and waxed strong, full of wisdom: and the grace of God was in him.E il Bambino cresceva, e si fortificava riempiendosi di sapienza: e la grazia di Dio era in lui.And the childe grevv, and vvaxed strong': ful of vvisedom, and the grace of God vvas in him.Puer autem crescebat, et confortabatur plenus sapientia: et gratia Dei erat in illo. 41And his parents went every year to Jerusalem, at the solemn day of the pasch.E i suoi genitori andavano ogni anno a Gerusalemme pel dì solenne di pasqua.And his parents vvent euery yere vnto Hierusalem, at the solemne day of Pasche.Et ibant parentes ejus per omnes annos in Jerusalem, in die solemni Paschæ. 42And when he was twelve years old, they going up into Jerusalem, according to the custom of the feast,E quando egli fu arrivato all'età di dodici anni, essendo essi andati a Gerusalemme secondo il solito di quella solennità,And vvhen he vvas tvvelue yeres old, they going vp into Hierusalem according to the custome of the festiual day,Et cum factus esset annorum duodecim, ascendentibus illis Jerosolymam secundum consuetudinem diei festi, 43And having fulfilled the days, when they returned, the child Jesus remained in Jerusalem. And his parents knew it not.Allorché passati que' giorni se ne ritornavano, rimase il fanciullo Gesù in Gerusalemme, e non se ne accorsero i suoi genitori.and hauing ended the daies, vvhen they returned, the childe IESVS remained in Hierusalem: and his parents knew it not.consummatisque diebus, cum redirent, remansit puer Jesus in Jerusalem, et non cognoverunt parentes ejus. 44And thinking that he was in the company, they came a day’s journey and sought him among their kinsfolks and acquaintance.E pensandosi, che egli fosse coi compagni, camminarono una giornata, e lo andavano cercando tra i parenti, e conoscenti.And thinking that he vvas in the companie, they came a daies iourney, and sought him among their kinsfolke and acquaintance.Existimantes autem illum esse in comitatu, venerunt iter diei, et requirebant eum inter cognatos et notos. 45And not finding him, they returned into Jerusalem, seeking him.Nè avendolo trovato, tornarono a Gerusalemme a ricercarlo.And not finding him, they returned into Hierusalem, seeking him.Et non invenientes, regressi sunt in Jerusalem, requirentes eum.

46And it came to pass, that, after three days, they found him in the temple, sitting in the midst of the doctors, hearing them and asking them questions.E avvenne, che dopo tre giorni lo trovarono nel tempio, che sedeva in mezzo ai dottori, e gli ascoltava, e gli interrogava.And it came to passe, after three daies they found him in the temple sitting in the middes of the Doctors, hearing them, and asking them.Et factum est, post triduum invenerunt illum in templo sedentem in medio doctorum, audientem illos, et interrogantem eos. 47And all that heard him were astonished at his wisdom and his answers.E tutti quei, che l'udivano, restavano attoniti della sua sapienza, e delle sue risposte.And al vvere astonied that heard him, vpon his vvisedom and ansvvers.Stupebant autem omnes qui eum audiebant, super prudentia et responsis ejus. 48And seeing him, they wondered.

E la Madre sua gli disse: Figlio, perché ci hai tu fatto questo? Ecco che tuo padre, e io addolorati andavamo di te in cerca.And seeing him, they vvondered. And his mother said to him, Sonne, vvhy hast thou so done to vs? behold thy father and I sorovving did seeke thee.Et videntes admirati sunt.

E la Madre sua di tutte queste cose faceva conserva in cuor suo.And he vvent dovvne vvith them, and came to Nazareth: and vvas subiect to them.
