路加福音2:41-52 (CUV)

41每年到逾越節,他父母就上耶路撒冷去。
42當他十二歲的時候,他們按著節期的規矩上去。
43守滿了節期,他們回去,孩童耶穌仍舊在耶路撒冷。他的父母並不知道,
44以為他在同行的人中間,走了一天的路程,就在親族和熟識的人中找他,
45既找不著,就回耶路撒冷去找他。
46過了三天,就遇見他在殿裡,坐在教師中間,一面聽,一面問。
47凡聽見他的,都希奇他的聰明和他的應對。
48他父母看見就很希奇。他母親對他說:我兒!為甚麼向我們這樣行呢?看哪!你父親和我傷心來找你!
49耶穌說:為甚麼找我呢?豈不知我應當以我父的事為念麼(或作:豈不知我應當在我父的家裡麼)?
50他所說的這話,他們不明白。
51他就同他們下去,回到拿撒勒,並且順從他們。他母親把這一切的事都存在心裡。
52耶穌的智慧和身量(或作:年紀),並神和人喜愛他的心,都一齊增長。

Luke 2:41-52 (ESV)

The Boy Jesus in the Temple

41 Now his parents went to Jerusalem every year at the Feast of the Passover. 42 And when he was twelve years old, they went up according to custom. 43 And when the feast was ended, as they were returning, the boy Jesus stayed behind in Jerusalem. His parents did not know it, 44 but supposing him to be in the group they went a day's journey, but then they began to search for him among their relatives and acquaintances, 45 and when they did not find him, they returned to Jerusalem, searching for him. 46 After three days they found him in the temple, sitting among the teachers, listening to them and asking them questions. 47 And all who heard him were amazed at his understanding and his answers. 48 And when his parents[a] saw him, they were astonished. And his mother said to him, “Son, why have you treated us so? Behold, your father and I have been searching for you in great distress.” 49 And he said to them, “Why were you looking for me? Did you not know that I must be in my Father's house?”[b] 50 And they did not understand the saying that he spoke to them. 51 And he went down with them and came to Nazareth and was submissive to them. And his mother treasured up all these things in her heart.
52 And Jesus increased in wisdom and in stature[c] and in favor with God and man.
