Codex Vaticanus 2

1E aconteceu naqueles dias que saiu um decreto da parte de César Augusto, para que todo o mundo fosse alistado.

1And it came to pass in those days, that there went out a decree from Caesar Augustus, that all the world should be taxed.

2(Este primeiro alistamento foi feito sendo Quirino governador da Síria).

2(And this taxing was first made when Cyrenius was governor of Syria.)

3E todos iam alistar-se, cada um à sua própria cidade.

3And all went to be taxed, every one into his own city.

4E subiu também José da Galileia, da cidade de Nazaré, à Judeia, à cidade de Davi, chamada Belém (porque era da casa e família de Davi),

4And Joseph also went up from Galilee, out of the city of Nazareth, into Judaea, unto the city of David, which is called Bethlehem; (because he was of the house and lineage of David:)

5A fim de alistar-se com Maria, sua esposa, que estava grávida.

5To be taxed with Mary his espoused wife, being great with child.

6E aconteceu que, estando eles ali, se cumpriram os dias em que ela havia de dar à luz.

6And so it was, that, while they were there, the days were accomplished that she should be delivered.

7E deu à luz a seu filho primogênito, e envolveu-o em panos, e deitou-o numa manjedoura, porque não havia lugar para eles na estalagem.

7And 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.
