Matouš 2
1 Když se pak narodil Ježíš v Betlémě Judově, za dnů Herodesa krále, aj, mudrci od východu slunce přijeli do Jeruzaléma,
Now after Jesus was born in Bethlehem of Judea, in the days of Herod the king, behold, Magi from the east came to Jerusalem,
2 Řkouce: Kde jest ten, kterýž se narodil Král Židovský? Nebo viděli jsme hvězdu jeho na východu slunce, a přijeli jsme klaněti se jemu.
saying: Where is he that is born king of the Jews? For we have seen his star in the east, and have come to do him homage.
3 To uslyšev Herodes král, zarmoutil se i všecken Jeruzalém s ním.
When Herod the king heard these things, he was troubled, and all Jerusalem with him.
4 A svolav všecky přední kněží a učitele lidu, tázal se jich, kde by se Kristus měl naroditi.
And when he had assembled all the chief priests and scribes of the people, he inquired of them where the Christ should be born.
5 Oni pak řekli jemu: V Betlémě Judově. Nebo tak jest psáno skrze proroka:
And they said to him: In Bethlehem of Judea; for thus it is written by the prophet:
6 A ty Betléme, země Judská, nikoli nejsi nejmenší mezi knížaty Judskými; neboť z tebe vyjde Vývoda, kterýž pásti bude lid můj Izraelský.
And thou, Bethlehem, city of Judah, art by no means the least among the chiefs of Judah; for out of thee shall come a leader, that shall be a shepherd to my people Israel.
7 Tedy Herodes tajně povolav mudrců, pilně se jich ptal, kterého by se jim času hvězda ukázala.
Then Herod, when he had secretly called the Magi, inquired of them strictly at what time the star, then visible, first made its appearance:
8 A když je propouštěl do Betléma, řekl: Jdouce, ptejte se pilně na to dítě, a když naleznete, zvěstujtež mi, ať i já přijda, pokloním se jemu.
and sending them to Bethlehem, he said: Go, make strict inquiry for the young child: and when you have found him, bring me word, that I also may go and do him homage.
9 Oni pak vyslyševše krále, jeli. A aj, hvězda, kterouž byli viděli na východu slunce, předcházela je, až i přišedši, stála nad domem, kdež bylo dítě.
When they had heard the king, they departed; and lo, the star, which they had seen in the east, went before them, till it came and stood over the place where the young child was.
10 A uzřevše hvězdu, zradovali se radostí velmi velikou.
And when they saw the star, they rejoiced with very great joy.
11 I všedše do domu, nalezli dítě s Marijí matkou jeho, a padše, klaněli se jemu; a otevřevše poklady své, obětovali jemu dary, zlato a kadidlo a mirru.
And having come into the house, they saw the young child with Mary his mother; and falling down, they did him homage. And when they had opened their treasures, they offered to him gifts, gold, frankincense, and myrrh.
12 A od Boha napomenuti jsouce ve snách, aby se nenavraceli k Herodesovi, jinou cestou navrátili se do krajiny své.
And having been warned in a dream not to return to Herod, they departed into their own country by another way.
13 Když pak oni odjeli, aj, anděl Páně ukázal se Jozefovi ve snách, řka: Vstana, vezmi dítě i matku jeho, a utec do Egypta, a buď tam, dokavadž nepovím tobě; neboť bude Herodes hledati dítě, aby je zahubil.
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 be there till I bring you word; for Herod is about to seek for the young child, to destroy him.
14 Kterýžto vstav hned v noci, vzal dítě i matku jeho, a odšel do Egypta.
And he arose and took the young child and his mother by night, and departed into Egypt,
15 A byl tam až do smrti Herodesovy, aby se naplnilo povědění Páně skrze proroka, řkoucího: Z Egypta povolal jsem Syna svého.
and was there till the death of Herod; that the word might be fulfilled which was spoken by the Lord through his prophet, saying: Out of Egypt have I called my Son.
16 Tehdy Herodes uzřev, že by oklamán byl od mudrců, rozhněval se náramně, a poslav služebníky své, zmordoval všecky dítky, kteréž byly v Betlémě i ve všech končinách jeho, od dvouletých a níže, podle času, na kterýž se byl pilně vyptal od mudrců.
Then Herod, when he saw that he was deceived by the Magi, was greatly enraged, and sent out and slew all the male children that were in Bethlehem and in all its borders, from the age of two years and under, according to the time which he had strictly inquired of the Magi.
17 Tehdy naplněno jest to povědění Jeremiáše proroka, řkoucího:
Then was fulfilled that which was spoken by Jeremiah the prophet, saying:
18 Hlas v Ráma slyšán jest, naříkání a pláč a kvílení mnohé; Ráchel plačící synů svých, a nedala se potěšiti, protože jich není.
A voice was heard in Ramah, wailing and weeping, and great mourning; Rachel weeping for her children, and refusing to be comforted because they are no more.
19 Když pak umřel Herodes, aj, anděl Páně ukázal se Jozefovi ve snách v Egyptě,
But when Herod was dead, behold, an angel of the Lord appeared in a dream to Joseph in Egypt,
20 Řka: Vstana, vezmi dítě i matku jeho, a jdiž do země Izraelské; neboť jsou zemřeli ti, jenž hledali bezživotí dítěte.
saying: Arise and take the young child and his mother, and go into the land of Israel; for they are dead who sought the young child’s life.
21 Kterýžto vstav, vzal dítě i matku jeho, a přišel do země Izraelské.
And he arose and took the young child and his mother, and came into the land of Israel.
22 A uslyšev, že by Archelaus kraloval v Judstvu místo Herodesa otce svého, obával se tam jíti; a napomenut jsa od Boha ve snách, obrátil se do krajin Galilejských.
But when he heard that Archelaus was reigning in Judea in place of Herod his father, he was afraid to go thither. But being warned in a dream, he withdrew into the regions of Galilee,
23 A přišed, bydlil v městě, jenž slove Nazarét, aby se naplnilo, což povědíno bylo skrze proroky, že Nazaretský slouti bude.
and came and dwelt in a city called Nazareth, that the word might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophets: He shall be called a Nazarene.
