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,
Leleꞌ bonggi Yesus mia kambo Betlehem sia profinsi Yudea, mane Herodes toꞌu parendaꞌ. Leleꞌ naa, hambu atahori hira mia mamana dodꞌooꞌ sia langgan rulu rema risiꞌ kota Yerusalem. Sira, atahori mana rahine mete nduuꞌ.
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.”
Leleꞌ ara losa Yerusalem, ara ratatane reu-rema rae, “Atahori Yahudi ra manen fo feꞌe nenebꞌonggiꞌ a, sia bee, e? Hai mita nduuꞌ sa sia langgan rulu, mana fee tatandaꞌ nae, bonggi E ena. Naeni de hai ima mae beꞌutee neu E.”
3 When King Herod heard it, he was troubled, and all Jerusalem with him.
Leleꞌ mane Herodes rena oꞌola nara, ma ralan liuali. Naa de basa atahori sia Yerusalem ra o ramedꞌa taꞌo naa boe.
4 Gathering together all the chief priests and scribes of the people, he asked them where the Christ would be born.
Basa ma, mane Herodes naꞌabꞌue nala basa malangga agama Yahudi ra ro meser agama ra, de natane se nae, “Hei mifadꞌe sobꞌa au dei! Kristus fo, Lamatualain helu-fuli memaꞌ a, nenebꞌonggiꞌ sia bee, e?”
5 They said to him, “In Bethlehem of Judea, for this is written through the prophet,
Ma rataa rae, “Sia kambo Betlehem, sia profinsi Yudea, ama maneꞌ. Huu Lamatuaꞌ mana ola-olan Mika suraꞌ memaꞌ mia dalahulun taꞌo ia:
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.’”
‘We, hei atahori Betlehem, mana sia profinsi Yudea re. Afiꞌ duꞌa mae, hei kambom naa, kambo anaꞌ nda naꞌena sosoa-ndandaaꞌ sa. Huu dei fo hambu atahori moko-monaen sa mia naa nema. Dei fo Ana dadꞌi manatadꞌa soaꞌ neu Au atahori Israꞌel ngga ra.’”
7 Then Herod secretly called the wise men, and learned from them exactly what time the star appeared.
Rena basa taꞌo naa ma, mane Herodes noꞌe nee-nee nala atahori mana mete rahine nduuꞌ ra. De natane se, sira rita nduuꞌ naa sou sia lalai a eni bees. Ma ara rafadꞌe e.
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.”
Boe ma ana denu se Betlehem reu. Nafadꞌe se nae, “Mii sangga rereoꞌ Anaꞌ naa sia naa. Mete ma hei mindaa mo E, na, baliꞌ ima mifadꞌe au. Huu au ae uu beꞌutee neu E boe.
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.
Ara rena basa maneꞌ a oꞌolan, ma ara reu boe. Tao-tao te, ara rita nduuꞌ fo dalahulun rita mia seriꞌ rulu a. Nduuꞌ a sou mia mata nara, ma ana laoꞌ de losa Anaꞌ a mamana leleon, ma naloeꞌ.
10 When they saw the star, they rejoiced with exceedingly great joy.
Rita taꞌo naa, ma ramahoꞌo rala seli.
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.
Basa de ara ume rala reu, ma rita Anaꞌ a no maman Maria. De sendeꞌ lululangga nara beꞌutee neu E. Boe ma ara buka mbomboti sudꞌiꞌ a saa mafelit nara, fo fee neu Anaꞌ a. Ara fee lilo, kemenyan, no hau raa maꞌameniꞌ.
12 Being warned in a dream not to return to Herod, they went back to their own country another way.
Nda dooꞌ sa ma, ara hambu meit mia Lamatualain oi, “Ama afiꞌ baliꞌ misiꞌ mane Herodes fai.” Naa de ara bali risiꞌ kambo nara tungga dalaꞌ laen.
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.”
Leleꞌ atahori mana mete rahine nduuꞌ ra lao baliꞌ, boe ma Lamatualain aten esa mia sorga nema nafadꞌe neu Yusuf sia meit na, nae “Wae, Yusuf! Fela lailai! Haꞌi mala Anaꞌ naa no maman fo mela nusa Masir mi. Leo mihati naa losa faiꞌ bee fo Au ufadꞌe nggi fo ama baliꞌ na dei fo ama baliꞌ, te mane Herodes sangga nae nisa Anaꞌ naa!”
14 He arose and took the young child and his mother by night and departed into Egypt,
Basa ma Yusuf fela. Boe ma ana nendi saon no Anaꞌ naa tetembaꞌ, de rela nusa Masir reu.
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.”
Ara leo mia naa losa Herodes mate. No taꞌo naa Lamatualain oꞌolan dadꞌi, onaꞌ mana ola-olan Hosea nafadꞌe memaꞌ eniꞌ a mia lele uluꞌ a nae, “Au oꞌe baliꞌ Ana Ngga, fo lao hela Masir.”
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.
Leleꞌ mane Herodes nahine nae, atahori mana mete rahine nduuꞌ ra lelekoꞌ e, ma ana namanasa seli. De ana parenda soldꞌadꞌu nara nae, “Mii sia kambo Betlehem ma kambo-kambo mana deka naa ra. Tao misa basa ana diki tou anaꞌ, mana to beꞌe ruaꞌ fo rae neu.” Herodes parenda taꞌo naa, huu ana nasanedꞌa atahori mahineꞌ ra dudꞌuin. Ana reken eniꞌ a ara rita nduuꞌ a sou fefeun mia lalai a.
17 Then that which was spoken by Jeremiah the prophet was fulfilled, saying,
Basa dalaꞌ ia ra dadꞌi, tungga saa fo Lamatualain mana ola-olan Yeremia sura memaꞌ mia lele uluꞌ a nae,
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.”
“Rena atahori nggae ei-ei sia kota Rama. Rahel nggae ei-ei, huu basa ana nara mate ena. Ana nda nau atahori reu kokoe e sa. huu basa ana nara nese ena.”
19 But when Herod was dead, behold, an angel of the Lord appeared in a dream to Joseph in Egypt, saying,
Dodꞌoo ma mane Herodes mate. Leleꞌ naa Yusuf se feꞌe sia Masir. Boe ma Lamatualain aten esa mia sorga, nema natudꞌu matan neu e mia meit.
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.”
Ate a nafadꞌe nae, “Wae, Yusuf! Fela leo! Mo baliꞌ Anaꞌ naa no maman, Israꞌel reu. Te atahori fo mana nae tao nisa Anaꞌ naa mate ena.”
21 He arose and took the young child and his mother, and came into the land of Israel.
Rena taꞌo naa ma Yusuf fela. De ana no baliꞌ se nusa Israꞌel reu.
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,
Te leleꞌ ana rena nae, mane Herodes anan Arkalaus toꞌu parendaꞌ sia profinsi Yudea, boe ma namatau baliꞌ naa neu. Basa ma Lamatualain parenda e sia meit sa fai nae, “Yusuf, afiꞌ leo sia Yudea.” Naeni de ana neu leo sia profinsi Galilea,
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.
sia kamboꞌ sa naran Nasaret. No taꞌo naa, Lamatualain oꞌolan, dadꞌi tebꞌe-tebꞌeꞌ ena, tungga saa fo mana ola-ola nara suraꞌ memaꞌ rae, “Dei fo ara roꞌe E rae, Atahori Nasaret.”
