Matthew 2
1 Now when Jesus was born in Bethlehem of Judea in the days of King Herod, behold, wise men from the east came to Jerusalem, saying,
Bara Heroodis Mootichaa keessa, erga Yesuus magaalaa Beetlihem Yihuudaatti argamtu keessatti dhalatee booddee, beektonni baʼa biiftuutii gara Yerusaalem dhufan;
2 “Where is he who is born King of the Jews? For we saw his star in the east, and have come to worship him.”
isaanis, “Mootiin Yihuudootaa inni dhalate sun eessa jira? Nu urjii isaa baʼa biiftuutti arginee isaaf sagaduu dhufneerra” jedhanii gaafatan.
3 When King Herod heard it, he was troubled, and all Jerusalem with him.
Heroodis Mootichi yommuu waan kana dhagaʼetti ni jeeqame; Yerusaalemis guutummaatti isa wajjin jeeqamte.
4 Gathering together all the chief priests and scribes of the people, he asked them where the Christ would be born.
Innis luboota hangafootaa fi barsiistota seeraa hunda saba keessaa walitti qabee, Kiristoos eessatti akka dhalatu isaan gaafate.
5 They said to him, “In Bethlehem of Judea, for this is written through the prophet,
Isaanis akkana jedhanii deebisaniif; “Beetlihem Yihuudaatti dhalata; kunis dubbii raajichi, “‘Yaa Beetlihem ishee biyya Yihuudaa, ati gonkumaa bulchitoota Yihuudaatii gad miti; bulchaan saba koo Israaʼelin tiksu si keessaa ni baʼaatii’ jedhee barreesse sanaa dha.”
6 ‘You Bethlehem, land of Judah, are in no way least among the princes of Judah; for out of you shall come a governor who shall shepherd my people, Israel.’”
7 Then Herod secretly called the wise men, and learned from them exactly what time the star appeared.
Ergasii Heroodis beektota sana dhoksaatti waamee yeroo itti urjiin sun mulʼate isaan irraa hubate.
8 He sent them to Bethlehem, and said, “Go and search diligently for the young child. When you have found him, bring me word, so that I also may come and worship him.”
Innis, “Dhaqaatii jabeessaa mucicha barbaadaa. Yeroo argitanitti immoo akka anis dhufee isaaf sagaduuf natti himaa” jedhee Beetlihemitti isaan erge.
9 They, having heard the king, went their way; and behold, the star, which they saw in the east, went before them until it came and stood over where the young child was.
Isaanis erga waan mootichi jedhe sana dhagaʼanii booddee karaa isaanii itti fufan; urjiin isaan baʼa biiftuutti argan sunis hamma iddoo mucichi ture gaʼee dhaabatutti isaan dura deeme.
10 When they saw the star, they rejoiced with exceedingly great joy.
Isaanis yeroo urjii sana arganitti akka malee gammadan.
11 They came into the house and saw the young child with Mary, his mother, and they fell down and worshiped him. Opening their treasures, they offered to him gifts: gold, frankincense, and myrrh.
Akkuma mana ol seenaniinis mucicha, haadha isaa Maariyaam wajjin argan; kufaniis sagadaniif. Qorxii isaaniis bananii kennaa warqee, ixaanaa fi qumbii dhiʼeessaniif.
12 Being warned in a dream not to return to Herod, they went back to their own country another way.
Beektonnis akka gara Heroodisitti hin deebineef waan abjuudhaan of eeggachiisni isaaniif kennameef karaa biraatiin biyya isaaniitti deebiʼan.
13 Now when they had departed, behold, an angel of the Lord appeared to Joseph in a dream, saying, “Arise and take the young child and his mother, and flee into Egypt, and stay there until I tell you, for Herod will seek the young child to destroy him.”
Yommuu beektonni sun deemanitti, kunoo ergamaan Gooftaa abjuudhaan Yoosefitti mulʼatee, “Sababii Heroodis mucicha ajjeesuu barbaaduuf kaʼiitii mucichaa fi haadha isaa fudhadhuutii Gibxitti baqadhu. Hamma ani yeroo ati itti deebitu sitti himutti achuma turi” jedheen.
14 He arose and took the young child and his mother by night and departed into Egypt,
Kanaafuu Yoosef kaʼee mucichaa fi haadha isaa halkaniin fudhatee Gibxitti qajeele;
15 and was there until the death of Herod, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the Lord through the prophet, saying, “Out of Egypt I called my son.”
hamma Heroodis duʼuttis achi jiraate. Kunis akka wanni Gooftaan karaa raajichaatiin, “Ani Gibxii ilma koo waameera” jedhe sun raawwatamuuf taʼe.
16 Then Herod, when he saw that he was mocked by the wise men, was exceedingly angry, and sent out and killed all the male children who were in Bethlehem and in all the surrounding countryside, from two years old and under, according to the exact time which he had learned from the wise men.
Heroodis yommuu akka beektonni sun isa gowwoomsan hubatetti akka malee aare; innis akka yeroo beektota sana irraa bareetti, ijoollee dhiiraa warra umuriin isaanii waggaa lamaa fi hammasii gad taʼe kanneen Beetlihemii fi naannoo ishee keessa jiraatan hunda nama itti ergee ficcisiise.
17 Then that which was spoken by Jeremiah the prophet was fulfilled, saying,
Kanaanis wanni Ermiyaas raajichi dubbate ni raawwatame. Innis akkana jedha:
18 “A voice was heard in Ramah, lamentation, weeping and great mourning, Rachel weeping for her children; she wouldn’t be comforted, because they are no more.”
“Sagaleen booʼichaatii fi wawwaannaa guddaan tokko Raamaa keessaa dhagaʼame; sababii isaan hin jirreef, Raahel ijoollee isheetiif booʼaa jirti; jajjabaachuus ni didde.”
19 But when Herod was dead, behold, an angel of the Lord appeared in a dream to Joseph in Egypt, saying,
Erga Heroodis duʼee booddee, ergamaan Gooftaa tokko Gibxitti abjuudhaan Yoosefitti mulʼatee,
20 “Arise and take the young child and his mother, and go into the land of Israel, for those who sought the young child’s life are dead.”
“Warri lubbuu mucichaa barbaadan waan duʼaniif kaʼiitii mucicha haadha isaa wajjin fudhadhuutii biyya Israaʼel dhaqi” jedheen.
21 He arose and took the young child and his mother, and came into the land of Israel.
Kanaafuu Yoosef kaʼee mucichaa fi haadha isaa fudhatee biyya Israaʼel dhaqe.
22 But when he heard that Archelaus was reigning over Judea in the place of his father, Herod, he was afraid to go there. Being warned in a dream, he withdrew into the region of Galilee,
Garuu yommuu akka Arkelaawoos iddoo abbaa isaa, iddoo Heroodis Yihuudaa irratti moʼe dhagaʼetti achi dhaquu sodaate; abjuudhaanis waan of eeggachiisni isaaf kennameef gara aanaa Galiilaa deeme;
23 and came and lived in a city called Nazareth; that it might be fulfilled which was spoken through the prophets that he will be called a Nazarene.
achis dhaqee magaalaa Naazreeti jedhamtu keessa jiraate. Kunis dubbiin, “Inni Naaziricha jedhamee ni waamama” jedhamee karaa raajotaatiin dubbatame sun akka raawwatamuuf taʼe.
