Matthew 2
1 Now when Jesus was born in Bethlehem of Judaea in the days of Herod the king, behold, there came wise men from the east to Jerusalem,
Baada ta Yesu, belekwa mu Bethlehemu ya Uyahudi plyo pa utawala ba mpwalume Herode bandu asomi buka kubwani ya kutalu baisile Yerusalemu kaakoya,
2 Saying, Where is he that is born King of the Jews? for we have seen his star in the east, and are come to worship him.
“ywabile kwaa'ko ywabelekilwe mpwalume Ayahudi? twabweni itondwa yabile mashariki yitu tuisi kumwabudu.
3 When Herod the king had heard these things, he was troubled, and all Jerusalem with him.
Palyo mpwalume Herode payowine atiyogopa, ni Yerusalemu yote pamope ni ywembe.
4 And when he had gathered all the chief priests and scribes of the people together, he demanded of them where Christ should be born.
Herode nga akusanya boti apendo ba makuhani ni baandishi ba bandu, kaalokiya, “Kristo abelekwa kwako?”
5 And they said unto him, In Bethlehem of Judaea: for thus it is written by the prophet,
Kaba koya, “ku'Bethlehemu ya Ayahudi, mana nyon nga yaandikilwe ni manabii,
6 And you Bethlehem, in the land of Juda, are not the least among the princes of Juda: for out of you shall come a Governor, that shall rule my people Israel.
Ni wenga Bethlehemu, mu, nchi ya ya Yuda, nchunu kwaa nnonge ya iongozi ba Yuda. kwa kuwa kuoma kwako wabile mtawala ywalowa kuwachunga bandu bango ba Israeli.”
7 Then Herod, when he had privately called the wise men, enquired of them diligently what time the star appeared.
Herode kabakema balo asomi kwa siri ni kabakoya muda gani hasa itondwa ipala bonekana.
8 And he sent them to Bethlehem, and said, Go and search diligently for the young child; and when all of you have found him, bring me word again, that I may come and worship him also.
Abatumite ku Bethlehemu, kakoya, “muyende mbolembole mukalaluye muda hasa mwana ywa abelekilwe. Palyo mwalowa m'bona, muniletei habari ili mwanja ni nenga niweche isa ni kumwabudu.”
9 When they had heard the king, they departed; and, lo, the star, which they saw in the east, went before them, till it came and stood over where the young child was.
Paba myowine mpwalume, bayei ni mwanja wabe, ni tondwa lelo waibweni ngolo ni yatikuwalongoya mpakanpaluyemi kunani ya mwana pabelekwile.
10 When they saw the star, they rejoiced with exceeding great joy.
Palyo paibweni tondwa, bapulaike muno.
11 And when they were come into the house, they saw the young child with Mary his mother, and fell down, and worshipped him: and when they had opened their treasures, they presented unto him gifts; gold, and frankincense and myrrh.
Bajingii nnyumba ni bamweni mwana ywa belekilwe ni Mariamu mao bake, batikunolekea ni kunnoba. Baundwi misigo yabe ni kumpeya zawadi ya dhahabu, uvumba ni manemane.
12 And being warned of God in a dream that they should not return to Herod, they departed into their own country another way.
Nnongo atikubaonya mu'ndoto kana bapite kwa Herode, ila babuye kwa ndela yenge.
13 And when they were departed, behold, the angel of the Lord appears to Joseph in a dream, saying, Arise, and take the young child and his mother, and flee into Egypt, and be you there until I bring you word: for Herod will seek the young child to destroy him.
Baada ya kuoma, malaika ba Ngwana ampiye Yusufu mundoto ni kukoya,'Uluka, umpotwe mwana ni mao bake ni m'butukie Misri. Mutame kwoo mpaka pana mmakiya, mwanja Herode apala mwana amulage.
14 When he arose, he took the young child and his mother by night, and departed into Egypt:
Kilo Yusufu atiyumuka ni kupotwa mwana ni mao bake ni kabutukya Misri.
15 And was there until the death of Herod: that it might be fulfilled which was spoken of the Lord by the prophet, saying, Out of Egypt have I called my son.
Atami kwoo mpaka Herode awile. Alee litimii lelo likowe lya longei Ngwana pitya kwa anabii, “kuoma Misri ni kemite mwana wango.”
16 Then Herod, when he saw that he was mocked of the wise men, was exceeding angry, and sent forth, and slew all the children that were in Bethlehem, and in all the coasts thereof, from two years old and under, according to the time which he had diligently enquired of the wise men.
Boka po Herode pabweni asomi batikonga, atikasirika sana. Alangi kwabulaga bana boti alalome bababile Bethlehemu miaka ibele mpaka pae yake kuoma muda ng'ulo wa akikishe na asomi.
17 Then was fulfilled that which was spoken by Jeremy the prophet, saying,
Palyo ngalitimii likowe lya alongei mukano wa nabii Yeremia,
18 In Rama was there a voice heard, lamentation, and weeping, and great mourning, Rachel weeping for her children, and would not be comforted, because they are not.
“Lilobe lyayowinike Rmah, kilelo sa lobola muno, Raheli kalelya bana bake, ni akani kumpembelya, mana bawile.”
19 But when Herod was dead, behold, an angel of the Lord appears in a dream to Joseph in Egypt,
Herode pawile, linga malaika wa Ngwana atikumpitya Yusufu mu ndoto kaakoya,
20 Saying, Arise, and take the young child and his mother, and go into the land of Israel: for they are dead which sought the young child's life.
“Uluka untole mwana ni mao bake, ni myende mu'nnema ba'Aisraeli kwa maana babau palenge byomi wa mwana bawile.”
21 And he arose, and took the young child and his mother, and came into the land of Israel.
Yusufu kayumuka ngampotwa mwana pamope ni mao bake, kaisa kunnema wa Israel.
22 But when he heard that Archelaus did reign in Judaea in the room of his father Herod, he was afraid to go thither: notwithstanding, being warned of God in a dream, he turned aside into the parts of Galilee:
Lakini payowine panga Arikelau abile katawala Yuda badala ta tate bake Herode. endeyogopa yenda kwao. Baada ya Nnongo kukalipwa kwa lota, atibuka yenda kunnema wa Galilaya.
23 And he came and dwelt in a city called Nazareth: that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophets, He shall be called a Nazarene.
ni ayei tama kunnema woo waukemelwa Nazareti. Alee lenga lilimi likowe lyalongei kwa ndela ya manabii, panga alowa kemelwa Mnazareti.
