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,
anantaraṁ herod saṁjñake rājñi rājyaṁ śāsati yihūdīyadeśasya baitlehami nagare yīśau jātavati ca, katipayā jyotirvvudaḥ pūrvvasyā diśo yirūśālamnagaraṁ sametya kathayamāsuḥ,
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.”
yo yihūdīyānāṁ rājā jātavān, sa kutrāste? vayaṁ pūrvvasyāṁ diśi tiṣṭhantastadīyāṁ tārakām apaśyāma tasmāt taṁ praṇantum agamāma|
3 When King Herod heard it, he was troubled, and all Jerusalem with him.
tadā herod rājā kathāmetāṁ niśamya yirūśālamnagarasthitaiḥ sarvvamānavaiḥ sārddham udvijya
4 Gathering together all the chief priests and scribes of the people, he asked them where the Christ would be born.
sarvvān pradhānayājakān adhyāpakāṁśca samāhūyānīya papraccha, khrīṣṭaḥ kutra janiṣyate?
5 They said to him, “In Bethlehem of Judea, for this is written through the prophet,
tadā te kathayāmāsuḥ, yihūdīyadeśasya baitlehami nagare, yato bhaviṣyadvādinā itthaṁ likhitamāste,
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.’”
sarvvābhyo rājadhānībhyo yihūdīyasya nīvṛtaḥ| he yīhūdīyadeśasye baitleham tvaṁ na cāvarā|isrāyelīyalokān me yato yaḥ pālayiṣyati| tādṛgeko mahārājastvanmadhya udbhaviṣyatī||
7 Then Herod secretly called the wise men, and learned from them exactly what time the star appeared.
tadānīṁ herod rājā tān jyotirvvido gopanam āhūya sā tārakā kadā dṛṣṭābhavat, tad viniścayāmāsa|
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.”
aparaṁ tān baitlehamaṁ prahītya gaditavān, yūyaṁ yāta, yatnāt taṁ śiśum anviṣya taduddeśe prāpte mahyaṁ vārttāṁ dāsyatha, tato mayāpi gatvā sa praṇaṁsyate|
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.
tadānīṁ rājña etādṛśīm ājñāṁ prāpya te pratasthire, tataḥ pūrvvarsyāṁ diśi sthitaistai ryā tārakā dṛṣṭā sā tārakā teṣāmagre gatvā yatra sthāne śiśūrāste, tasya sthānasyopari sthagitā tasyau|
10 When they saw the star, they rejoiced with exceedingly great joy.
tad dṛṣṭvā te mahānanditā babhūvuḥ,
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.
tato gehamadhya praviśya tasya mātrā mariyamā sāddhaṁ taṁ śiśuṁ nirīkṣaya daṇḍavad bhūtvā praṇemuḥ, aparaṁ sveṣāṁ ghanasampattiṁ mocayitvā suvarṇaṁ kunduruṁ gandharamañca tasmai darśanīyaṁ dattavantaḥ|
12 Being warned in a dream not to return to Herod, they went back to their own country another way.
paścād herod rājasya samīpaṁ punarapi gantuṁ svapna īśvareṇa niṣiddhāḥ santo 'nyena pathā te nijadeśaṁ prati pratasthire|
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.”
anantaraṁ teṣu gatavatmu parameśvarasya dūto yūṣaphe svapne darśanaṁ datvā jagāda, tvam utthāya śiśuṁ tanmātarañca gṛhītvā misardeśaṁ palāyasva, aparaṁ yāvadahaṁ tubhyaṁ vārttāṁ na kathayiṣyāmi, tāvat tatraiva nivasa, yato rājā herod śiśuṁ nāśayituṁ mṛgayiṣyate|
14 He arose and took the young child and his mother by night and departed into Egypt,
tadānīṁ yūṣaph utthāya rajanyāṁ śiśuṁ tanmātarañca gṛhītvā misardeśaṁ prati pratasthe,
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.”
gatvā ca herodo nṛpate rmaraṇaparyyantaṁ tatra deśe nyuvāsa, tena misardeśādahaṁ putraṁ svakīyaṁ samupāhūyam| yadetadvacanam īśvareṇa bhaviṣyadvādinā kathitaṁ tat saphalamabhūt|
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.
anantaraṁ herod jyotirvidbhirātmānaṁ pravañcitaṁ vijñāya bhṛśaṁ cukopa; aparaṁ jyotirvvidbhyastena viniścitaṁ yad dinaṁ taddinād gaṇayitvā dvitīyavatsaraṁ praviṣṭā yāvanto bālakā asmin baitlehamnagare tatsīmamadhye cāsan, lokān prahitya tān sarvvān ghātayāmāsa|
17 Then that which was spoken by Jeremiah the prophet was fulfilled, saying,
ataḥ anekasya vilāpasya nināda: krandanasya ca| śokena kṛtaśabdaśca rāmāyāṁ saṁniśamyate| svabālagaṇahetorvai rāhel nārī tu rodinī| na manyate prabodhantu yataste naiva manti hi||
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.”
yadetad vacanaṁ yirīmiyanāmakabhaviṣyadvādinā kathitaṁ tat tadānīṁ saphalam abhūt|
19 But when Herod was dead, behold, an angel of the Lord appeared in a dream to Joseph in Egypt, saying,
tadanantaraṁ heredi rājani mṛte parameśvarasya dūto misardeśe svapne darśanaṁ dattvā yūṣaphe kathitavān
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.”
tvam utthāya śiśuṁ tanmātarañca gṛhītvā punarapīsrāyelo deśaṁ yāhī, ye janāḥ śiśuṁ nāśayitum amṛgayanta, te mṛtavantaḥ|
21 He arose and took the young child and his mother, and came into the land of Israel.
tadānīṁ sa utthāya śiśuṁ tanmātarañca gṛhlan isrāyeldeśam ājagāma|
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,
kintu yihūdīyadeśe arkhilāyanāma rājakumāro nijapitu rherodaḥ padaṁ prāpya rājatvaṁ karotīti niśamya tat sthānaṁ yātuṁ śaṅkitavān, paścāt svapna īśvarāt prabodhaṁ prāpya gālīldeśasya pradeśaikaṁ prasthāya nāsarannāma nagaraṁ gatvā tatra nyuṣitavān,
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.
tena taṁ nāsaratīyaṁ kathayiṣyanti, yadetadvākyaṁ bhaviṣyadvādibhirukttaṁ tat saphalamabhavat|
