He was given the name Jesus

イエスと名付けられた

and Joseph and Mary took the Child to to Jerusalem to present Him to the Lord.

両親は幼な子を連れ エルサレムに上ぼった

In the temple there was a good and devout man

そこには シメオンという人物がいた

who the Holy Spirit had promised would not die

彼はキリストを見るまでは 死なないという

until he had seen the Christ.

お告げを聖霊から受けていた

His name was Simeon.

主よ あなたは約束通り

Lord, now You can let me, Thy servant,

この者を去らせて下さい

depart in peace according to Thy word.

この目があなたの救いを 見たのですから

For mine eyes have seen Thy salvation.

この子は神に選ばれたもの

This Child is chosen by God.

お二人に　祝福あれ

May you both be blessed.

彼らはモーセの律法の努めを すべて果たし

And when they had completed all their duties

エルサレムから ナザレに帰った

according to the law of Moses,

イエスが十二才の時

they left Jerusalem and returned to Nazareth.

両親は祭のため エルサレムに上ぼった

When Jesus was twelve years old,

祭りの後 帰途についたが

Joseph and Mary took Him to Jerusalem for the passover feast.

イエスだけは

But, when they started back home,

残っていた

thinking that the Boy was with them,

両親はイエスを捜しに 引き返した

Jesus stayed behind.

そして三日目 神殿で教師たちと共に――

They returned to the city looking for Him.

座っているイエスを見つけた

And on the third day found Him in the temple

この賢い子は 一体どこの子だ？

sitting with the rabbis and the elders.

ナザレから来ました はぐれてしまって

Whose Child is this who asks such questions?

ご無礼をお許し下さい

He's from Nazareth.

聞いていた人々はみな驚いた

We thought He had left with us. Please, forgive Him His zeal.

なぜこんなことをしたの？

All who heard Him were amazed.

心配して探し回ったのよ

Son! Why have You done this to us?

どうして探したりしたの？

Your father and I have been terribly worried trying to find you.

僕が父の仕事をしていたのを 知らなかったの？

How is it that you looked for Me?

イエスはその後ナザレに帰り

Did you not know that I must be about My Father's business?

ますます知恵に満たされ　成長し 神と人から愛された

And He came with them to Nazareth

and increased in wisdom and stature

and in favor with God and with man.
