Matiyu 2
1 kubẹ na iwa maru Yisa ku in Baitalami un Yahudiya nayiri tigoh in Hiridus, amon anitt anan yiru yenju niyini kusari kitene nin Urushalima da ida woro,
Now after Jesus was born in Bethlehem of Judea, in the days of Herod the king, behold, wise men [magi] from the East came into Jerusalem,
2 Adin weri ulenge na ina marughe ugoh na Yahudawe? Tina yene fiyini mere kusari kitene unnare ti da tida zazinghe.”
saying: “Where is he who has been born King of the Jews? For we saw his star in the East and have come to worship him.”
3 Na ugoh Hiridus in lanza nani, ayi me nin na nitin Urushalima fita vat.
When Herod the king heard it he became agitated, and all Jerusalem with him.
4 Hiridus pitirino a didya na Priest nin na nan ninyerte nanit vat kiti kirum, anin tirino nani, “Nweri ima Kristi ku?”
And gathering all the chief priests and scribes of the people, he inquired of them where the Christ was to be born.
5 I woro ghe nenge, “In Baitalamin Yahudiya, bara imon ile na nyan lirun nuu Kutullẹ na nyertin nari ine,
So they said to him: “In Bethlehem of Judea, for thus it stands written by the prophet:
6 'A fe, ubaitalami, in myin Yahudiya, na fere ubene nan nya na nan bun Yahudiya, nani nan nya fere unan tigo ba nuzukuulenge na ama su libya nanit nig Israila.'”
‘And you, Bethlehem, land of Judah, are not at all the least among the rulers of Judah, for out of you will come a Ruler who will shepherd my people Israel.’”
7 Hiridus tunna ayicila anan yiru vat likire a tirino nani in dert kubi kongo na fiyine na nuzu.
Then Herod, calling the wise men secretly, determined from them the time when the star appeared.
8 A to nani udu ubaitalahmi, a woro, “Can idi piziru ubeleng gono seng. Asa i se ghe, dan ida belli, bara meng wang nan do in di zazinghe.”
And directing them to Bethlehem he said, “When you get there, search carefully for the young child; and should you find him, bring back word to me, so that I also may go and worship him.”
9 Na i lanza ugowe ku, i kiffo libau i nya, fiyine na ini yene kusari kitene tunna ncin nbun mine fidi duru fiyisina kiti kirum dert kiti kanga na gọnọ diku.
So having heard the king they departed, and there was the star that they had seen in the East! It went before them until it arrived and stopped above where the young Child was.
10 Na iyene fiyinie, isu ayi abo nin liburi libo kang.
Now when they saw the star they rejoiced with exceedingly great joy!
11 Itunna ipira nan nya kilare iyene gone nin nene Maryamue. Itumuno izazin ghe. Itunna i puzuno tika mine i nakpaghe imon ile na i ming mun, izinariya, lubban a kwul.
And coming into the house they saw the young Child with Mary His mother, and falling down they worshiped Him; and opening their treasures they presented gifts to Him: gold, frankincense and myrrh.
12 Na ise uwannu nataf kiti Kutellẹ nan nya namorona iwa kpilin kitin Hiridus ba, ifita i yira nlong libau ugang ukpillu kipin mine.
Then, having been warned in a dream not to return to Herod, they departed for their own country by a different road.
13 Na inung nna nya, Gono kadura Kutellẹ tun na a da kitin Yusufu nan nya namoro, a woroghe, “Fita uyiru gono, kinesse nin nene urum udu uMasar, udi so kikane se kubi kongo na mbellin fi uliru bara na Hiridus ma pizuru gone a molu kining.”
Now when they had departed, again, an angel of the Lord appeared to Joseph in a dream saying: “Get up, take the young Child and His mother, flee to Egypt and stay there until I tell you; because Herod is about to seek the young Child to destroy Him!”
14 A tunna nin kitik ka ne afita a yauna ggono kinesse nin nene inya mun ucindu umasar.
So he got up and took the young Child and His mother by night and departed for Egypt.
15 Awa di so kikane udi duru kubin nkul in Hiridus, ulire nan kulo na cikilare wa bellin kitin nnan liru nin nuu Kutellẹ, “Unuzun nan nyan Masar nna yicila usaun ning ku.”
And he was there until the death of Herod, so that what was spoken by the Lord through the prophet should be fulfilled, namely: “Out of Egypt I called my Son.”
16 Na Hiridus iyene anitt ayinjing ane nrusuzo ghe, ayi nana ghe kang, ato idi molusu nnono ni lirine vat na niwadi in Baitalahmi, udu ligan nminne vat, ucizunu na kus aba utolu kadas nalenge na idurun ba, nafo kubatino kube na awa lanza Ubeleng nan nyan tinu na nit ajinjin ghe.
Then Herod, when he saw that he had been deceived by the wise men, became very angry, and he sent out and killed all the boys who were in Bethlehem and in all its districts, from two years old and under, according to the time which he had determined from the wise men.
17 Ulirue u ni wa kulo vilengwe na iwa bellin kitin Irimiya unan liru nin nuuKutellẹ.
Then what was spoken by Jeremiah the prophet was fulfilled, namely:
18 “I wa lanza liwani nan nyan rama, kuculu nin tiyom a liburi lisirne, Rahilla di kuculu nnono me.”
“A voice was heard in Ramah, lamentation, weeping and great mourning; Rachel weeping for her children and not wanting to be comforted, because they are no more.”
19 Na Hiridus nku gono kadura Kutellẹ da kitin Yusufu nan nya namoro in masar.
Now Herod having died, there, an angel of the Lord appeared in a dream to Joseph in Egypt
20 “Aworo, Fita, yauna gono kinesse nin nene, udo nan nyan nmin Israila.”
saying: “Get up, take the young Child and His mother and go into the land of Israel, for those seeking the life of the young Child have died.”
21 Yusufue fita, a yauna gone nin nene, ada nan nya nmin Israila.
So he got up and took the young Child and His mother and went into the land of Israel.
22 Na alanza Arkila usari di tigon yahudiya kudarun ncife, Hiridus, fiu kiffo ghe na ado ba, vat nin woru Kutellẹ nwununghe kutuf nan nya namoro, ana lassina udu nmin ngalili.
But hearing that Archelaus was reigning over Judea instead of his father Herod, he was afraid to go there. And being warned in a dream he proceeded into the region of Galilee.
23 Amini ana wa dak ada da so nkan kipin na idin yiccu kinin unazarati, inan kulo uliru na iwa bellin tinu na nan nliru nnu Kutellẹ ima yiccu ghe kunan Nazarat.
And upon arriving he settled in a city called Natsareth [Branch-town], so that what was spoken through the prophets should be fulfilled, that He would be called a Natsorean [Branch-man].
