Mateo 2
1 Iayo cenean bada Iesus Bethlehem Iudeacoan regue Herodesen demborán, huná, Çuhurrac Orientetic ethor citecen Ierusalemera,
And so, when Jesus had been born in Bethlehem of Judah, in the days of king Herod, behold, Magi from the east arrived in Jerusalem,
2 Cioitela, Non da Iuduén regue iayo dena? ecen ikussi dugu haren içarra Orientean, eta ethorri gara hura adora deçagunçat.
saying: “Where is he who was born king of the Jews? For we have seen his star in the east, and we have come to adore him.”
3 Bada regue Herodes ençunic hori trubla cedin, eta Ierusaleme gucia harequin.
Now king Herod, hearing this, was disturbed, and all Jerusalem with him.
4 Eta bilduric Sacrificadore principal guciac eta populuaren Scribác, informa cedin hetaric non Christ sortzeco cen.
And gathering together all the leaders of the priests, and the scribes of the people, he consulted with them as to where the Christ would be born.
5 Eta hec erran cieçoten, Bethlehem Iudeacoan, ecen hunela scribatua duc Prophetáz,
And they said to him: “In Bethlehem of Judea. For so it has been written by the prophet:
6 Eta hi Bethlehem Iudaco lurrá, ezaiz Iudaco gobernadorén arteco chipiena, ecen hireganic ilkiren duc, Israel ene populua bazcaturen duen gobernadorea.
‘And you, Bethlehem, the land of Judah, are by no means least among the leaders of Judah. For from you shall go forth the ruler who shall guide my people Israel.’”
7 Orduan Herodes secretuqui Çuhurrac deithuric informa cedin hetaric diligentqui, içarra aguertu içan çayen demboráz:
Then Herod, quietly calling the Magi, diligently learned from them the time when the star appeared to them.
8 Eta hec Bethlehemerat igorriric, erran cieçén, Ioanic informa çaitezte diligentqui haourtchoaz: eta eriden duqueçuenean, iaquin eraci ieçadacue, nic-ere ethorriric adora deçadan hura.
And sending them into Bethlehem, he said: “Go and diligently ask questions about the boy. And when you have found him, report back to me, so that I, too, may come and adore him.”
9 Hec bada reguea ençunic parti citecen: eta huná, Orientean ikussi vkan çuten içarra hayén aitzinean ioaiten cen, haourtchoa cen lekuaren gainera ethorriric gueldi cedino.
And when they had heard the king, they went away. And behold, the star that they had seen in the east went before them, even until, arriving, it stood still above the place where the child was.
10 Eta içarra ikussiric bozcario handiz boz citecen haguitz.
Then, seeing the star, they were gladdened by a very great joy.
11 Eta etchera sarthuric eriden ceçaten haourtchoa bere ama Mariarequin: eta ahozpez adora ceçaten hura, eta bere thesaurac desplegaturic presenta cietzoten estrenác, vrrhe, encensu, eta myrrha.
And entering the home, they found the boy with his mother Mary. And so, falling prostrate, they adored him. And opening their treasures, they offered him gifts: gold, frankincense, and myrrh.
12 Eta diuinoqui ametsetan aduertitu içanic ezlitecen Herodesgana itzul, berce bidez retira citecen bere comarcarát.
And having received a response in sleep that they should not return to Herod, they went back by another way to their own region.
13 Bada hec retiratu eta, huná, Iaunaren Aingueruä aguertzen çayó Iosephi, dioela, Iaiquiric har itzac haourtchoa eta haren ama, eta ihes eguic Egyptera: eta aicén han nic darraqueadano: ecen Herodesec bilhaturen dic haourtchoa hiltzeco.
And after they had gone away, behold, an Angel of the Lord appeared in sleep to Joseph, saying: “Rise up, and take the boy and his mother, and flee into Egypt. And remain there until I tell you. For it will happen that Herod will seek the boy to destroy him.”
14 Iosephec bada iratzarri eta, har citzan haourtchoa eta haren ama gauaz, eta retira cedin Egyptera.
And getting up, he took the boy and his mother by night, and withdrew into Egypt.
15 Eta egon cedin han Herodesen finerano, Iaunac Prophetáz erran çuena compli ledinçát, cioela Egyptetic deithu vkan dut neure Semea.
And he remained there, until the death of Herod, in order to fulfill what was spoken by the Lord through the prophet, saying: “Out of Egypt, I called my son.”
16 Orduan Herodesec ikussiric nola Çuhurréz enganatu içan cen, asserre cedin haguitz: eta bere gendea igorriric hil citzan Bethlehemen eta haren aldiri gucietan ciraden haour bi vrthetaco eta behereco guciac, Çuhurretaric diligentqui informatu içan cen demboraren araura.
Then Herod, seeing that he had been fooled by the Magi, was very angry. And so he sent to kill all the boys who were in Bethlehem, and in all its borders, from two years of age and under, according to the time that he had learned by questioning the Magi.
17 Orduan compli cedin Iaunac Hieremias Prophetáz erran vkan çuena, cioela,
Then what was spoken through the prophet Jeremiah was fulfilled, saying:
18 Voza Rhaman ençun içan da, deithore eta nigar eta auhen handi. Rachel bere haourracgatic nigarrez egon, eta ezta consolatu nahi içan, ceren eztiraden.
“A voice has been heard in Ramah, great weeping and wailing: Rachel crying for her sons. And she was not willing to be consoled, because they were no more.”
19 Baina Herodes hil eta, huná, Iaunaren Aingueruä aguer cequión ametsetan Iosephi Egypten,
Then, when Herod had passed away, behold, an Angel of the Lord appeared in sleep to Joseph in Egypt,
20 Cioela, iaiquiric har itzac haourtchoa eta haren ama eta ioan adi Israeleco lurrerát, ecen haourtchoaren arimaren ondoan çabiltzanac hil içan dituc.
saying: “Rise up, and take the boy and his mother, and go into the land of Israel. For those who were seeking the life of the boy have passed away.”
21 Harc bada iratzarri eta, har citzan haourtchoa eta haren ama, eta ethor cedin Israeleco lurrera.
And rising up, he took the boy and his mother, and he went into the land of Israel.
22 Baina ençunic ecen Archelausec regnatzen çuela Iudean bere aita Herodesen lekuan, beldur cedin hara ioaitera: eta ametsetan diuinoqui aduertituric retira cedin Galileaco bazterretarát.
Then, hearing that Archelaus reigned in Judea in place of his father Herod, he was afraid to go there. And being warned in sleep, he withdrew into parts of Galilee.
23 Eta hara ethorriric habita cedin Nazareth deitzen den hirian: Prophetéz erran içan cena compli ledinçat, ecen Nazareno deithuren cela.
And arriving, he lived in a city which is called Nazareth, in order to fulfill what was spoken through the prophets: “For he shall be called a Nazarene.”
