Luke 2:16

2:16 So they hurried off and located Mary and Joseph, and found the baby lying in a manger. ¹ 

Luke 5:25

5:25 Immediately ²  he stood up before them, picked ³  up the stretcher ⁴  he had been lying on, and went home, glorifying ⁵  God.

¹ tn Or “a feeding trough.”

² tn Grk “And immediately.” Here καί (kai) has not been translated because of differences between Greek and English style.

³ tn Grk “and picked up.” Here καί (kai) has not been translated because contemporary English normally places a coordinating conjunction only between the last two elements in a series.

⁴ tn Grk “picked up what he had been lying on”; the referent of the relative pronoun (the stretcher) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

⁵ sn Note the man’s response, glorifying God. Joy at God’s work is also a key theme in Luke: 2:20; 4:15; 5:26; 7:16; 13:13; 17:15; 18:43; 23:47.
