< Matayo 2 >
1 Che Yesu ŵapagwile mmusi wa ku Beselehemu, muchilambo cha ku Yudea, kele katemako che Helode ali mwenye. Napagwa pe, ŵandu ŵaŵaimanyichisye nnope ndondwa kutyochela kungopochelo lyuŵa ŵaiche ku Yelusalemu.
Now Jesus having been born in Bethlehem of Judea in [the] days of Herod the king behold Magi from [the] east arrived in Jerusalem
2 Ŵausisye ŵandu, “Ana alikwapi mwanache jwapagwile, kuŵa Mwenye jwa Ŵayahudi? Tujiweni ndondwa jakwe pajikopochele kungopochelo lyuŵa ni weleu tuiche kukwapopelela.”
saying; Where is the [One] having been born King of the Jews? We saw for His star in the east and are come to worship Him.
3 Mwenye che Helode paŵapilikene yeleyo ni ŵapwele ntima, ŵelewo pamo ni ŵandu wose ŵa ku Yelusalemu.
Having heard then King Herod he was troubled and all Jerusalem with him,
4 Nipele, ŵaaŵilasile pamo achakulungwa wose ŵambopesi ni ŵakwiganya Malajisyo ga Akunnungu gaŵapele che Musa, ŵausisye kuti, “Ana Kilisito Jwakuwombola chapagwe kwapi?”
And having gathered together all the chief priests and scribes of the people he was inquiring of them where the Christ is born.
5 Nombewo ŵajanjile, “Mu musi wa ku Beselehemu, muchilambo cha ku Yudea, pakuŵa yeleyo ni yaitite pakulembekwa ni jwakulondola jwa Akunnungu,
And they said to him; In Bethlehem of Judea. thus for it has been written through the prophet:
6 ‘Mmwe Beselehemu chilambo cha ku Yudea, mmwe nganimma jwamwana kose pasikati misi ja chilambo cha ku Yudea, pakuŵa kutyochela kukwenu chakopochele chilongola juchiŵalongosye ŵandu ŵangu, Ŵaisilaeli.’”
And you yourself Bethlehem land of Judah, by no means least are among the rulers of Judah; out of you for will go forth [One] leading who will shepherd the people of Mine Israel.’
7 Pelepo, che Helode ŵaaŵilasile pachisyepela ŵanyawo ŵaŵaimanyichisye nnope ndondwa ni ŵausisye katema chi jele ndondwa jo pijakopochele.
Then Herod secretly having called the Magi inquired exactly of them the time of the appearing star,
8 Nipele ŵatumile ku Beselehemu aninkuti, “Njaulanje nkauchilichisye uchenene ngani sya jwele mwanache. Mwamalaga kummona, nkauje kukuusalila, ni une jwakwe nyaule ngaatindiŵalile.”
And having sent them to Bethlehem he said; Having gone do search carefully for the Child. when then You may have found [Him], do bring word back to me so that I myself also I myself also having come may worship Him.
9 Paŵamalisisye kumpilikanila mwenye, ŵajendelechele ni ulendo wao nipele jele ndondwa jo jiŵajiweni kungopochelo lyuŵa jalongolele mmbujo mwao mpaka pajaiche ni kwima pachanya nyuumba jiŵaliji mwanache.
And having heard the king they went away. and behold the star which they saw in the east was going before them until having arrived (it was stood *N(k)O*) over where was the Child.
10 Paŵajiweni jele ndondwa jo ŵasengwile nnope.
Having seen now the star they rejoiced [with] joy great exceedingly,
11 Ŵajinjile nkati ni ŵammweni mwanache jula pamo ni che Maliamu achikulugwe, ŵatindiŵalile ni kunkotamila. Pelepo ni ŵagopwele mmalombo gao ni ŵampele ntuuka, sahabu ni ubani ni mauta gagakuŵilanjikwa manemane.
And having come into the house (they saw *NK(o)*) the Child with Mary the mother of Him, and having fallen down they worshiped Him, and having opened the treasures of them they offered to Him gifts, gold and frankincense and myrrh.
12 Akunnungu ŵakanyisye mu sagamisi kuti akaujila sooni ku che Helode, nipele ŵausile kumangwao kwa litala line.
And having been divinely warned in a dream not to return to Herod, through another route they withdrew into the country of them.
13 Paŵamasile kutyoka achalendo ŵala, katumetume jwa kwinani jwa Ambuje ŵankopochele che Yusufu mu sagamisi ni kwasalila, “Njimuche! Munjigale mwanache jo pamo ni achikulugwe ni mmutuchile ku Misili. Ntamanje kweleko mpaka pachinantanjile, pakuŵa che Helode akusaka kummulaga mwanache ju.”
When were withdrawing then they behold an angel of [the] Lord appears in a dream to Joseph saying; Having arisen do take the Child and the mother of Him and do flee into Egypt and do remain there until when I may tell you; is about for Herod is to seek the Child to destroy Him.
14 Nipele che Yusufu ŵajimwiche ni kunjigala mwanache pamo ni achikulugwe, ŵatyosile chilo, ŵajawile ku Misili.
And having arisen he took the Child and the mother of Him by night and withdrew into Egypt,
15 Ŵatemi kweleko mpaka che Helode paŵajasiche. Yeleyo yatendekwe kuti liloŵe liŵaŵechete Ambuje kwa litala lya jwakulondola jwakwe liŵe isyene, “Nammilasile mwanangu kutyochela ku Misili.”
and he was remaining there until the death of Herod, so that it may be fulfilled that having been spoken by (the *k*) Lord through the prophet saying; Out of Egypt I called the Son of mine.
16 Che Helode paŵaimanyi kuti ŵaŵaimanyichisye ndondwa kwa nnope ŵala ŵalambwisye, ŵatumbile nnope. Ŵalajisye ŵandu ŵakwe akaaulaje ŵanache achanandi wose ŵachilume ŵapagwile ku Beselehemu ni mumbali mwakwe ŵaali ni yaka iŵili ni paasi ja pelepo. Ŵatesile yeleyo malinga ni katema paŵaimanyi kutyochela kwa ŵele ŵaŵaimanyichisye nnope ndondwa.
Then Herod having seen that he had been outwitted by the Magi was enraged intensely, and having sent forth he executed all the boys that [were] in Bethlehem and in all the vicinity of it from two years old and under according to the time which he had ascertained from the Magi.
17 Yeleyo ni igatite kuŵa isyene maloŵe gagaŵechetekwe kwa litala lya che Yelemia juŵaliji jwakulondola jwa Akunnungu achitiji,
Then was fulfilled that having been spoken (through *N(k)O*) Jeremiah the prophet saying;
18 “Liloŵe lipikaniche ku Lama ko, kulila kwa kupeteka ni kulila kwa malumbo. Che Laheli akwalilila ŵanache ŵao, ni ngaakusaka kwamyalasya, pakuŵa ŵanache wose ajasiche.”
A voice in Ramah was heard, (lamentation and *K*) weeping and mourning great, Rachel weeping [for] the children of her, and not was willing to be comforted because no more they are.
19 Paŵawile che Helode, katumetume jwa kwinani jwa Ambuje ŵankopochele che Yusufu mu sagamisi ku Misili kula,
When was dying now Herod behold an angel of [the] Lord appears in a dream to Joseph in Egypt
20 ŵansalile, “Njimuche! Munjigale mwanache jo pamo ni achikulugwe, mmuje sooni ku chilambo cha Isilaeli, pakuŵa ŵandu ŵaŵasakaga kummulaga mwanache jo ŵamale kwasika.”
saying; Having arisen do take the Child and the mother of Him and do go into [the] land of Israel; they have died for those seeking the life of the Child.
21 Nipele che Yusufu ŵajimwiche ni ŵanjigele mwanache pamo ni achikulugwe, ŵausile ku chilambo cha Isilaeli.
And having arisen he took the Child and the mother of Him and (entered *N(k)O*) into [the] land of Israel.
22 Nambo che Yusufu paŵapilikene kuti che Alikelao mwanache ju che Helode, akamulile umwenye wa atatigwe, ŵajogwepe kwaula ku Yudea. Nombe, paŵamasile kukanyikwa mu sagamisi, ŵajawile mbande sya ku Galilaya,
Having heard now that Archelaus rules (upon *ko*) Judea in place of the father of him Herod he was afraid there to go. having been divinely warned now in a dream he withdrew into the district of Galilee,
23 ŵajawile kutama mu musi waukuŵilanjikwa ku Nasaleti. Yele ni iyatite pakuŵa isyene maloŵe gagaŵechetekwe kwa litala lya ŵakulondola ŵa Akunnungu gagakuti, “Chaŵilanjikwe jwa ku Nasaleti.”
and having come he dwelt in a city being named Nazareth, so that it may be fulfilled that having been spoken through the prophets that A Nazarene He will be called.
