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,
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.
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.
Ŵausisye ŵandu, “Ana alikwapi mwanache jwapagwile, kuŵa Mwenye jwa Ŵayahudi? Tujiweni ndondwa jakwe pajikopochele kungopochelo lyuŵa ni weleu tuiche kukwapopelela.”
3 When Herod the king had heard [these things], he was troubled, and all Jerusalem with him.
Mwenye che Helode paŵapilikene yeleyo ni ŵapwele ntima, ŵelewo pamo ni ŵandu wose ŵa ku Yelusalemu.
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.
Nipele, ŵaaŵilasile pamo achakulungwa wose ŵambopesi ni ŵakwiganya Malajisyo ga Akunnungu gaŵapele che Musa, ŵausisye kuti, “Ana Kilisito Jwakuwombola chapagwe kwapi?”
5 And they said unto him, In Bethlehem of Judaea: for thus it is written by the prophet,
Nombewo ŵajanjile, “Mu musi wa ku Beselehemu, muchilambo cha ku Yudea, pakuŵa yeleyo ni yaitite pakulembekwa ni jwakulondola jwa Akunnungu,
6 And thou Bethlehem, [in] the land of Juda, art not the least among the princes of Juda: for out of thee shall come a Governor, that shall rule my people Israel.
‘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.’”
7 Then Herod, when he had privily called the wise men, enquired of them diligently what time the star appeared.
Pelepo, che Helode ŵaaŵilasile pachisyepela ŵanyawo ŵaŵaimanyichisye nnope ndondwa ni ŵausisye katema chi jele ndondwa jo pijakopochele.
8 And he sent them to Bethlehem, and said, Go and search diligently for the young child; and when ye have found [him], bring me word again, that I may come and worship him also.
Nipele ŵatumile ku Beselehemu aninkuti, “Njaulanje nkauchilichisye uchenene ngani sya jwele mwanache. Mwamalaga kummona, nkauje kukuusalila, ni une jwakwe nyaule ngaatindiŵalile.”
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.
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.
10 When they saw the star, they rejoiced with exceeding great joy.
Paŵajiweni jele ndondwa jo ŵasengwile nnope.
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.
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.
12 And being warned of God in a dream that they should not return to Herod, they departed into their own country another way.
Akunnungu ŵakanyisye mu sagamisi kuti akaujila sooni ku che Helode, nipele ŵausile kumangwao kwa litala line.
13 And when they were departed, behold, the angel of the Lord appeareth to Joseph in a dream, saying, Arise, and take the young child and his mother, and flee into Egypt, and be thou there until I bring thee word: for Herod will seek the young child to destroy him.
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.”
14 When he arose, he took the young child and his mother by night, and departed into Egypt:
Nipele che Yusufu ŵajimwiche ni kunjigala mwanache pamo ni achikulugwe, ŵatyosile chilo, ŵajawile ku Misili.
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.
Ŵatemi kweleko mpaka che Helode paŵajasiche. Yeleyo yatendekwe kuti liloŵe liŵaŵechete Ambuje kwa litala lya jwakulondola jwakwe liŵe isyene, “Nammilasile mwanangu kutyochela ku Misili.”
16 Then Herod, when he saw that he was mocked of the wise men, was exceeding wroth, 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.
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.
17 Then was fulfilled that which was spoken by Jeremy the prophet, saying,
Yeleyo ni igatite kuŵa isyene maloŵe gagaŵechetekwe kwa litala lya che Yelemia juŵaliji jwakulondola jwa Akunnungu achitiji,
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.
“Liloŵe lipikaniche ku Lama ko, kulila kwa kupeteka ni kulila kwa malumbo. Che Laheli akwalilila ŵanache ŵao, ni ngaakusaka kwamyalasya, pakuŵa ŵanache wose ajasiche.”
19 But when Herod was dead, behold, an angel of the Lord appeareth in a dream to Joseph in Egypt,
Paŵawile che Helode, katumetume jwa kwinani jwa Ambuje ŵankopochele che Yusufu mu sagamisi ku Misili kula,
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.
ŵansalile, “Njimuche! Munjigale mwanache jo pamo ni achikulugwe, mmuje sooni ku chilambo cha Isilaeli, pakuŵa ŵandu ŵaŵasakaga kummulaga mwanache jo ŵamale kwasika.”
21 And he arose, and took the young child and his mother, and came into the land of Israel.
Nipele che Yusufu ŵajimwiche ni ŵanjigele mwanache pamo ni achikulugwe, ŵausile ku chilambo cha Isilaeli.
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:
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,
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.
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.”
