Matthew 2
1 Now when Jesus was born in Bethlehem of Judea in the days of Herod the king, look, Magi from the east came to Jerusalem, saying,
Kawuwa Heroodisa woden Yesuusi Yihuda biittan Beeteleme kataman yelettidayssafe guye xoolintto taybiya asati dolohappe Yerusalaame yidi,
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."
“Yelettida Ayhude kawoy awun de7ii? Nuuni doloha baggara keyida iya xoolinttuwa be7idi iyaw goynnanaw yida” yaagidi oychchidosona.
3 And when King Herod heard it, he was troubled, and all Jerusalem with him.
Kawoy Heroodisi hessa si7ida wode dagammis. Yerusalaamen de7iya asay ubbayka dagammidosona.
4 And gathering together all the chief priests and scribes of the people, he asked them where the Christ would be born.
Heroodisi kahine halaqatanne higge asttamaareta baakko xeegidi, “Kiristtoosi awun yelettanddeshsha?” yaagidi entta oychchis.
5 And they said to him, "In Bethlehem of Judea, for thus it is written through the prophet,
Enttika, “Yihuda Beetelemena; nabey,
6 'And you, Bethlehem, land of Judah, are in no way least among the rulers of Judah; for out of you will come forth a ruler who will shepherd my people, Israel.'"
‘Yihudan de7iya Beeteleme, Yihudan de7iya gooba katamatappe, neeni aybinkka guuxaka. Ta deriya Isra7eele aysanayssi, neeppe keyana’ gidi xaafis” yaagidosona.
7 Then Herod secretly called the Magi, and learned from them exactly what time the star appeared.
Hessafe guye, Heroodisi dolohappe yida asata geeman xeegidi, xoolinttuwa entti be7ida wodiya enttafe geeshshidi eris.
8 And he sent them to Bethlehem, and said, "Go and search diligently for the young child, and when you have found him, bring me word, so that I also may come and worship him."
I enttana Beeteleme yeddishe, “Bidi yelettida na7aa minthidi koyite; iya hintte demmida wode takka bada iyaw goynnana mela simmidi yishe taw odite” yaagis.
9 And they, having heard the king, went their way; and look, the star which they saw in the east went before them, until it came and stood over where the young child was.
Enttika kawoy Heroodisi gidayssa si7idi bidosona. Entti doloha baggara be7ida xoolinttoy enttana kaalethishe na7ay de7iyasuwa gakkanaw efis.
10 And when they saw the star, they rejoiced with exceedingly great joy.
Entti he xoolinttuwa be7ida wode gita ufayssi ufayttidosona.
11 And they came into the house and saw the young child with Mary, his mother, and they fell down and worshiped him. Then, opening their treasures, they offered to him gifts: gold, frankincense, and myrrh.
Soo gelidi na7aa ba aaye Mayraamira de7eyssa be7idosona. Iyaw gulbbatidi goynnidosona. Bantta saaxiniya dooyidi worqqa, ixaanenne karbbe iyaw immidosona.
12 Being warned in a dream that they should not return to Herod, they went back to their own country another way.
Entti Heerodisakko guye simmona mela Xoossay amuhon enttaw odin, hara ogera bantta biittaa simmidosona.
13 Now when they had departed, look, 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."
Doloha baggafe yida asati bidaappe guye, Godaa kiitanchchoy Yoosefas amuhon qonccidi, “Heroodisi na7aa wodhanaw koyaa gisho dendda; ellesada na7aanne na7aa aayiw ekkada Gibxe biittaa ba. Ne simmana wodiya ta new odana gakkanaw yan gam77a” yaagis.
14 And he arose and took the young child and his mother by night, and departed into Egypt,
Hessa gisho, Yoosefi he qamman denddidi, na7aanne na7aa aayiw ekkidi Gibxe bis.
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."
Nabiya doonan Xoossay, “Taani, ta na7aa, Gibxe biittafe xeegas” geetettida qaalay polettana mela Heroodisi hayqqana gakkanaw I yan de7is.
16 Then Herod, when he saw that he was mocked by the Magi, 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 Magi.
Hessafe guye, doloha baggafe yida asati iya cimmidayssa erida wode daro yilotis. I kase enttafe si7idayssada Beetelemeninne he heeran de7iya nam77u laythi kumidayssatanne nam77u laythafe garssan de7iya adde nayta ubbaa ba wotaddareta yeddidi wodhisis.
17 Then that which was spoken by Jeremiah the prophet was fulfilled, saying,
Nabiya Ermmiyasa doonan, “Yeehoynne zeleelssi, Raama kataman si7ettis. Raahela ba naytas yeekkawusu; entti hayqqida gisho minettanaw dandda7abuukku” gidi odidayssi polettis.
18 "A voice was heard in Ramah, lamentation and weeping and great mourning, Rachel weeping for her children; and she would not be comforted, because they are no more."
19 But when Herod was dead, look, an angel of the Lord appeared in a dream to Joseph in Egypt, saying,
Heroodisi hayqqidaappe guye Gibxen Godaa kiitanchchoy Yoosefas amuhon qonccidi,
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."
“Na7aa wodhanaw koyaa asati hayqqida gisho, denddada na7aanne na7aa aayiw ekkada Isra7eele biittaa simma” yaagis.
21 And he arose and took the young child and his mother, and went to the land of Israel.
Yoosefi denddidi na7aanne na7aa aayiw ekkidi Isra7eele biittaa simmis.
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,
Shin Arkkeliyoosi Yihudan ba aawa Heroodisa bessan kawotidayssa si7ida wode yaa baanaw yayyis. Xoossay amuhon iyaw qonccisin Galiila biittaa bis.
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 Nazorean.
Nabeta doonan, “Naazirete asi geetettana” gidi odettidayssi polettana mela Naazirete katamaa bidi yan de7is.
