This OET Readers’ Version was designed to be used with the Literal Version alongside, so you won’t get the best understanding from this single viewpoint. This is still an early look into the drafted text of the Open English Translation of the Bible. Please double-check the text in advance before using in public.
2:1 Yeshua’s birth in Beyt-Lehem
2 At that time, Kaisar Augustus sent a decree that everyone throughout the empire needed to register in a census. 2 (That census was conducted when Kurenios (Quirinius) was the governor of Aram (Syria).) 3 Everyone had to officially register in the city where they were born.
4 Because Yosef (Joseph) was a descendant of King David, he left Nazaret (Nazareth) town in the Galil region and went down to David’s town of Beyt-Lehem (Bethlehem) in Yehudah (Judea) 5 to register along with Maria (Mary; Heb. Miryam; Grk. Maria/Mariam), his pregnant fiancée. 6 While they were in Beyt-Lehem, the time came for her to give birth 7 and so Maria bore her first son and wrapped him in strips of cloth and slept him in an empty feeding trough, because they had missed out on the guest room.
