Infancy Gospel of Thomas 2

1This little child Jesus when he was five years old was playing at the ford of a brook: and he gathered together the waters that flowed there into pools, and made them straightway clean, and commanded them by his word alone.

Τοῦτο τὸ παιδίον Ἰησοῦς πενταέτης γενόμενος παίζων ἦν ἐν διαβάσει ῥύακος, καὶ τὰ ῥέοντα ὕδατα συνήγαγεν εἰς λάκκους, καὶ ἐποίει αὐτὰ εὐθέως καθαρά, καὶ λόγῳ μόνῳ ἐπέταξεν αὐτά. (14956)

2And having made soft clay, he fashioned thereof twelve sparrows. And it was the sabbath when he did these things ( or made them). And there were also many other little children playing with him.

Καὶ ποιήσας πηλὸν τρυφερὸν ἔπλασεν ἐξ αὐτοῦ στρουθία ιβ· καὶ ἦν σάββατον ὅτε ταῦτα ἐποίησεν. ἦσαν δὲ καὶ ἄλλα παιδία πολλὰ παίζοντα σὺν αὐτῷ. (10940)

3And a certain Jew when he saw what Jesus did, playing upon the sabbath day, departed straightway and told his father Joseph: Lo, thy child is at the brook, and he hath taken clay and fashioned twelve little birds, and hath polluted the sabbath day.

Ἰδὼν δέ τις Ἰουδαῖος ἃ ἐποίει ὁ Ἰησοῦς ἐν σαββάτῳ παίζων, ἀπῆλθε παραχρῆμα καὶ ἀνήγγειλε τῷ πατρὶ αὐτοῦ Ἰωσήφ· ἰδοὺ τὸ παιδίον σου ἐστὶν ἐπὶ τὸ ῥυάκιον, καὶ λαβὼν πηλὸν ἔπλασεν πουλία ιβ, καὶ ἐβεβήλωσεν τὸ σάββατον. (18776)

4And Joseph came to the place and saw: and cried out to him, saying: Wherefore doest thou these things on the sabbath, which it is not lawful to do? But Jesus clapped his hands together and cried out to the sparrows and said to them: Go! and the sparrows took their flight and went away chirping.

Καὶ ἐλθὼν Ἰωσὴφ ἐπὶ τὸν τόπον καὶ ἰδὼν ἀνέκραζεν αὐτῷ λέγων· διατί ταῦτα ποιεῖς ἐν σαββάτῳ ἃ οὐκ ἔξεστι ποιεῖν; ὁ δὲ Ἰησοῦς συγκροτήσας τὰς χεῖρας αὐτοῦ ἀνέκραζε τοῖς στρουθίοις καὶ εἶπεν αὐτοῖς· ὑπάγετε. καὶ πετασθέντα τὰ στρουθία ὑπῆγον κράζοντα. (24094)

5And when the Jews saw it they were amazed, and departed and told their chief men that which they had seen Jesus do.

Ἰδόντες δὲ οἱ Ἰουδαῖοι ἐθαμβήθησαν, καὶ ἀπελθόντες διηγήσαντο τοῖς πρώτοις αὐτῶν ὅπερ εἶδον πεποιηκότα τὸν Ἰησοῦν. (8958)
