< Matthew 2 >

1 And so, when Jesus had been born in Bethlehem of Judah, in the days of king Herod, behold, Magi from the east arrived in Jerusalem,
اَنَنْتَرَں ہیرودْ سَںجْنَکے راجْنِ راجْیَں شاسَتِ یِہُودِییَدیشَسْیَ بَیتْلیہَمِ نَگَرے یِیشَو جاتَوَتِ چَ، کَتِپَیا جْیوتِرْوُّدَح پُورْوَّسْیا دِشو یِرُوشالَمْنَگَرَں سَمیتْیَ کَتھَیَماسُح،
2 saying: “Where is he who was born king of the Jews? For we have seen his star in the east, and we have come to adore him.”
یو یِہُودِییاناں راجا جاتَوانْ، سَ کُتْراسْتے؟ وَیَں پُورْوَّسْیاں دِشِ تِشْٹھَنْتَسْتَدِییاں تارَکامْ اَپَشْیامَ تَسْماتْ تَں پْرَنَنْتُمْ اَگَمامَ۔
3 Now king Herod, hearing this, was disturbed, and all Jerusalem with him.
تَدا ہیرودْ راجا کَتھامیتاں نِشَمْیَ یِرُوشالَمْنَگَرَسْتھِتَیح سَرْوَّمانَوَیح سارْدّھَمْ اُدْوِجْیَ
4 And gathering together all the leaders of the priests, and the scribes of the people, he consulted with them as to where the Christ would be born.
سَرْوّانْ پْرَدھانَیاجَکانْ اَدھْیاپَکاںشْچَ سَماہُویانِییَ پَپْرَچّھَ، کھْرِیشْٹَح کُتْرَ جَنِشْیَتے؟
5 And they said to him: “In Bethlehem of Judea. For so it has been written by the prophet:
تَدا تے کَتھَیاماسُح، یِہُودِییَدیشَسْیَ بَیتْلیہَمِ نَگَرے، یَتو بھَوِشْیَدْوادِنا اِتّھَں لِکھِتَماسْتے،
6 ‘And you, Bethlehem, the land of Judah, are by no means least among the leaders of Judah. For from you shall go forth the ruler who shall guide my people Israel.’”
سَرْوّابھْیو راجَدھانِیبھْیو یِہُودِییَسْیَ نِیورِتَح۔ ہے یِیہُودِییَدیشَسْیے بَیتْلیہَمْ تْوَں نَ چاوَرا۔ اِسْراییلِییَلوکانْ مے یَتو یَح پالَیِشْیَتِ۔ تادرِگیکو مَہاراجَسْتْوَنْمَدھْیَ اُدْبھَوِشْیَتِی۔۔
7 Then Herod, quietly calling the Magi, diligently learned from them the time when the star appeared to them.
تَدانِیں ہیرودْ راجا تانْ جْیوتِرْوِّدو گوپَنَمْ آہُویَ سا تارَکا کَدا درِشْٹابھَوَتْ ، تَدْ وِنِشْچَیاماسَ۔
8 And sending them into Bethlehem, he said: “Go and diligently ask questions about the boy. And when you have found him, report back to me, so that I, too, may come and adore him.”
اَپَرَں تانْ بَیتْلیہَمَں پْرَہِیتْیَ گَدِتَوانْ، یُویَں یاتَ، یَتْناتْ تَں شِشُمْ اَنْوِشْیَ تَدُدّیشے پْراپْتے مَہْیَں وارْتّاں داسْیَتھَ، تَتو مَیاپِ گَتْوا سَ پْرَنَںسْیَتے۔
9 And when they had heard the king, they went away. And behold, the star that they had seen in the east went before them, even until, arriving, it stood still above the place where the child was.
تَدانِیں راجْنَ ایتادرِشِیمْ آجْناں پْراپْیَ تے پْرَتَسْتھِرے، تَتَح پُورْوَّرْسْیاں دِشِ سْتھِتَیسْتَے رْیا تارَکا درِشْٹا سا تارَکا تیشامَگْرے گَتْوا یَتْرَ سْتھانے شِشُوراسْتے، تَسْیَ سْتھانَسْیوپَرِ سْتھَگِتا تَسْیَو۔
10 Then, seeing the star, they were gladdened by a very great joy.
تَدْ درِشْٹْوا تے مَہانَنْدِتا بَبھُووُح،
11 And entering the home, they found the boy with his mother Mary. And so, falling prostrate, they adored him. And opening their treasures, they offered him gifts: gold, frankincense, and myrrh.
تَتو گیہَمَدھْیَ پْرَوِشْیَ تَسْیَ ماتْرا مَرِیَما سادّھَں تَں شِشُں نِرِیکْشَیَ دَنْڈَوَدْ بھُوتْوا پْرَنیمُح، اَپَرَں سْویشاں گھَنَسَمْپَتِّں موچَیِتْوا سُوَرْنَں کُنْدُرُں گَنْدھَرَمَنْچَ تَسْمَے دَرْشَنِییَں دَتَّوَنْتَح۔
12 And having received a response in sleep that they should not return to Herod, they went back by another way to their own region.
پَشْچادْ ہیرودْ راجَسْیَ سَمِیپَں پُنَرَپِ گَنْتُں سْوَپْنَ اِیشْوَرینَ نِشِدّھاح سَنْتو نْیینَ پَتھا تے نِجَدیشَں پْرَتِ پْرَتَسْتھِرے۔
13 And after they had gone away, behold, an Angel of the Lord appeared in sleep to Joseph, saying: “Rise up, and take the boy and his mother, and flee into Egypt. And remain there until I tell you. For it will happen that Herod will seek the boy to destroy him.”
اَنَنْتَرَں تیشُ گَتَوَتْمُ پَرَمیشْوَرَسْیَ دُوتو یُوشَپھے سْوَپْنے دَرْشَنَں دَتْوا جَگادَ، تْوَمْ اُتّھایَ شِشُں تَنْماتَرَنْچَ گرِہِیتْوا مِسَرْدیشَں پَلایَسْوَ، اَپَرَں یاوَدَہَں تُبھْیَں وارْتّاں نَ کَتھَیِشْیامِ، تاوَتْ تَتْرَیوَ نِوَسَ، یَتو راجا ہیرودْ شِشُں ناشَیِتُں مرِگَیِشْیَتے۔
14 And getting up, he took the boy and his mother by night, and withdrew into Egypt.
تَدانِیں یُوشَپھْ اُتّھایَ رَجَنْیاں شِشُں تَنْماتَرَنْچَ گرِہِیتْوا مِسَرْدیشَں پْرَتِ پْرَتَسْتھے،
15 And he remained there, until the death of Herod, in order to fulfill what was spoken by the Lord through the prophet, saying: “Out of Egypt, I called my son.”
گَتْوا چَ ہیرودو نرِپَتے رْمَرَنَپَرْیَّنْتَں تَتْرَ دیشے نْیُواسَ، تینَ مِسَرْدیشادَہَں پُتْرَں سْوَکِییَں سَمُپاہُویَمْ۔ یَدیتَدْوَچَنَمْ اِیشْوَرینَ بھَوِشْیَدْوادِنا کَتھِتَں تَتْ سَپھَلَمَبھُوتْ۔
16 Then Herod, seeing that he had been fooled by the Magi, was very angry. And so he sent to kill all the boys who were in Bethlehem, and in all its borders, from two years of age and under, according to the time that he had learned by questioning the Magi.
اَنَنْتَرَں ہیرودْ جْیوتِرْوِدْبھِراتْمانَں پْرَوَنْچِتَں وِجْنایَ بھرِشَں چُکوپَ؛ اَپَرَں جْیوتِرْوِّدْبھْیَسْتینَ وِنِشْچِتَں یَدْ دِنَں تَدِّنادْ گَنَیِتْوا دْوِتِییَوَتْسَرَں پْرَوِشْٹا یاوَنْتو بالَکا اَسْمِنْ بَیتْلیہَمْنَگَرے تَتْسِیمَمَدھْیے چاسَنْ، لوکانْ پْرَہِتْیَ تانْ سَرْوّانْ گھاتَیاماسَ۔
17 Then what was spoken through the prophet Jeremiah was fulfilled, saying:
اَتَح اَنیکَسْیَ وِلاپَسْیَ نِنادَ: کْرَنْدَنَسْیَ چَ۔ شوکینَ کرِتَشَبْدَشْچَ رامایاں سَںنِشَمْیَتے۔ سْوَبالَگَنَہیتورْوَے راہیلْ نارِی تُ رودِنِی۔ نَ مَنْیَتے پْرَبودھَنْتُ یَتَسْتے نَیوَ مَنْتِ ہِ۔۔
18 “A voice has been heard in Ramah, great weeping and wailing: Rachel crying for her sons. And she was not willing to be consoled, because they were no more.”
یَدیتَدْ وَچَنَں یِرِیمِیَنامَکَبھَوِشْیَدْوادِنا کَتھِتَں تَتْ تَدانِیں سَپھَلَمْ اَبھُوتْ۔
19 Then, when Herod had passed away, behold, an Angel of the Lord appeared in sleep to Joseph in Egypt,
تَدَنَنْتَرَں ہیریدِ راجَنِ مرِتے پَرَمیشْوَرَسْیَ دُوتو مِسَرْدیشے سْوَپْنے دَرْشَنَں دَتّوا یُوشَپھے کَتھِتَوانْ
20 saying: “Rise up, and take the boy and his mother, and go into the land of Israel. For those who were seeking the life of the boy have passed away.”
تْوَمْ اُتّھایَ شِشُں تَنْماتَرَنْچَ گرِہِیتْوا پُنَرَپِیسْراییلو دیشَں یاہِی، یے جَناح شِشُں ناشَیِتُمْ اَمرِگَیَنْتَ، تے مرِتَوَنْتَح۔
21 And rising up, he took the boy and his mother, and he went into the land of Israel.
تَدانِیں سَ اُتّھایَ شِشُں تَنْماتَرَنْچَ گرِہْلَنْ اِسْراییلْدیشَمْ آجَگامَ۔
22 Then, hearing that Archelaus reigned in Judea in place of his father Herod, he was afraid to go there. And being warned in sleep, he withdrew into parts of Galilee.
کِنْتُ یِہُودِییَدیشے اَرْکھِلایَنامَ راجَکُمارو نِجَپِتُ رْہیرودَح پَدَں پْراپْیَ راجَتْوَں کَروتِیتِ نِشَمْیَ تَتْ سْتھانَں یاتُں شَنْکِتَوانْ، پَشْچاتْ سْوَپْنَ اِیشْوَراتْ پْرَبودھَں پْراپْیَ گالِیلْدیشَسْیَ پْرَدیشَیکَں پْرَسْتھایَ ناسَرَنّامَ نَگَرَں گَتْوا تَتْرَ نْیُشِتَوانْ،
23 And arriving, he lived in a city which is called Nazareth, in order to fulfill what was spoken through the prophets: “For he shall be called a Nazarene.”
تینَ تَں ناسَرَتِییَں کَتھَیِشْیَنْتِ، یَدیتَدْواکْیَں بھَوِشْیَدْوادِبھِرُکْتَّں تَتْ سَپھَلَمَبھَوَتْ۔
