Matthew 2
1 Now when Yeshua was born in Bethlehem of Judea in the days of Herod the king, look, Magi from the east came to Jerusalem, saying,
Da ba ngrji Yesu ni Betalahim u Yahudiya ni ntton wu chu Fero, indi bi toh bari baa ye rji ni Urushalima,
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."
Ba tre ichu Yahudawa wa ba ngrji wu'a he mame? Kie toh Tsitsen ma ni ko Nzan u kie ye chi.
3 And when King Herod heard it, he was troubled, and all Jerusalem with him.
Niwo tre yi, Fero ka katie gbododo (wieme) me ni indi bi Urushalima wawu mba wu.
4 And gathering together all the chief cohanim and scribes of the people, he asked them where the Messiah would be born.
Da ayo firist bi ni nkon ni bi nha u ndi mba a mye ba ka bandi toh wrji wa ba ngrji Kristi a?
5 And they said to him, "In Bethlehem of Judea, for thus it is written through the prophet,
U baka hla wu Ni Batakami u Yahudiya a na ki anabawa ba nha,
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.'"
Iwu me' Batalami, igbu Yahudiya ana hi wuyi u nkle ni mi ba chu bi gbu Yahuda na: to gona wa ani nji ndimu Israila ani rji niwu.
7 Then Herod secretly called the Magi, and learned from them exactly what time the star appeared.
Hirudus ka yo shehuna ba ni yaybi nda mla wo inton wa to tsintsen'a.
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."
A tonba hi Baitalami nda tre, Hi yi', hu sren me di mla wo tre' u vrenyi, biti tou bika ye hlamu, ndu me ngame ye ciwu.
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.
Da ba wo tre chua kle, ba ka wlu hi nda to, tsitsen wa bana tou ni ki nzan, azren guci sihi ni ko shishi mba, nda zren hito ki me aka kukrli gyame ni bubu wa ivren he'a.
10 And when they saw the star, they rejoiced with exceedingly great joy.
Da ba to vren baka ngri nda briku.
11 And they came into the house and saw the young child with Miriam, his mother, and they fell down and worshiped him. Then, opening their treasures, they offered to him gifts: gold, frankincense, and myrrh.
Ba ri nimi koha nda to kpran vrena mba yi ma Maryamu nda ti gbru kukru nda ciu nda bwu ikpi wa ba nji'a nda nno; Zinariya mba Lubban u jawul.
12 Being warned in a dream that they should not return to Herod, they went back to their own country another way.
U Irji ka ti ba rah ndu bana lahi zu ni Hiridus ngana ba wlu zu nkon ri nka hi gbumba.
13 Now when they had departed, look, an angel of the Lord appeared to Joseph in a dream, saying, "Herod will seek the young child to destroy him."
Niwa ba wlu hu, u malaika Rji kaye ni Isuwu ni rah nda hla wu, “Wlu, ban vren'a mba yima, ndi tsutsu hi ni Masar, son niki me di la ka wo ni me rli: Hiridus niwa wu kpran vren'a.
14 And he arose and took the young child and his mother by night, and departed into Egypt,
Wa aye wlu'a a bari kpran vren'a ba yima ni cuu nda tsutsu hi ni Masar;
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."
Nda he niki me ye mla niqu Hiridus: wa aku gyre me ni tre Baci wa a hla ni ngu Anabi, din nimi Masar mi yo' vren mu.
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.
Hiridus a ye to di shehuna ba yau hlega ni tre ma, nda tie vrafu nda ndu ba wu mrli nlon bi Batalami, ni bi gbu wa ba he nha niwu'a bi wa ise mba a mla harli kima krji; bla rji ni nton wa a wo trea ni shehuna ba.
17 Then that which was spoken by Jeremiah the prophet was fulfilled, saying,
Rli kuko u ikpie wa ba hla ni nyu anabi Irimiya kaye ku tsra,
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."
Ba wo lan nimi Rama, iyi mba jequ, Rahila aniyi ni tu mrli ma, nda na wo wiere na wa mrli ba ba qu'a
19 But when Herod was dead, look, an angel of the Lord appeared in a dream to Joseph in Egypt, saying,
Hiridus ye qu u malaika Baci ka ye ni Isuwa ni rah ni mi Masar, nda hla,
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."
Wu ban kpran vren'a mba yima di hi ni meme Israila: e bi wa bazi wa wu kpran vrenia ba qu ye.
21 And he arose and took the young child and his mother, and went to the land of Israel.
A ye wlu nda ba kpranvren'a ni yima nda ye ni mi meme Israila.
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 Galil,
Wa'a wo ndi Arkilaus a kpa chu u tiema Hiridus nda nji Yahudiya a klu sisri uhi ni ki, u Rji ka tsro ni rah ndu vu y'ba hi ni meme Galili.
23 and came and lived in a city called Natzeret; that it might be fulfilled which was spoken through the prophets, that he will be called a Natzrati.
Aye nda ka son ni gburi wa ba yowu ndi Nazarat: ndu ikpie wa ba hla ni nyu anabawa ndu he me, ba yowu u-Nazarat.
