< Matthew 2 >

1 Jesus was born in Bethlehem [town] in Judea [province] during the time [MTY] that King Herod [the Great ruled there. Some time] after Jesus was born, some men who studied the stars and who lived in a [country] east [of Judea] came to Jerusalem.
Дупэ че С-а нэскут Исус ын Бетлеемул дин Иудея, ын зилеле ымпэратулуй Ирод, ятэ кэ ау венит ниште маӂь дин Рэсэрит ла Иерусалим
2 They asked [people], “Where is the one who has been born [in order that he might be] the king of [you] Jews? [We believe that your new king] has been born, because we have seen the star [that we believe indicated that] he has been [born]. [We saw it while we were in our country] east [of here]. So we have come to worship him.”
ши ау ынтребат: „Унде есте Ымпэратул де курынд нэскут ал иудеилор? Фииндкэ Й-ам вэзут стяуа ын Рэсэрит ши ам венит сэ не ынкинэм Луй.”
3 When King Herod heard [what those men were asking], he became worried [that someone else might be proclaimed] {[people might proclaim someone else]} [king of the Jews to replace him]. Many [of the people] of Jerusalem [MTY, HYP] [also] became worried [because they were afraid of what King Herod might do].
Кынд а аузит ымпэратул Ирод ачест лукру, с-а тулбурат мулт ши тот Иерусалимул с-а тулбурат ымпреунэ ку ел.
4 Then Herod gathered together all the ruling priests and men who taught the people the [Jewish] laws and he asked them where [the prophets had predicted that] the Messiah was to be born.
А адунат пе тоць преоций чей май де сямэ ши пе кэртурарий нородулуй ши а кэутат сэ афле де ла ей унде требуя сэ Се наскэ Христосул.
5 They said to him, “[He will be born] in Bethlehem, [here] in Judea [province], because it was written by the prophet [Micah] {the prophet [Micah] wrote} [long ago what God said]:
„Ын Бетлеемул дин Иудея”, й-ау рэспунс ей, „кэч ятэ че а фост скрис прин пророкул:
6 ‘You [who live in] Bethlehem [APO], in Judea [province], your town is certainly very important [LIT], because a man from your [town] will become a ruler. He will guide my people [who live in] Israel.’”
‘Ши ту, Бетлееме, цара луй Иуда, ну ешть ничдекум чя май неынсемнатэ динтре кэпетенииле луй Иуда; кэч дин тине ва еши о Кэпетение, каре ва фи Пэсторул попорулуй Меу Исраел.’”
7 Then [King] Herod secretly summoned those men who studied the stars. He asked them exactly when the star [first] appeared. [By what they told him, he was able to know the approximate age of the baby].
Атунч, Ирод а кемат ын аскунс пе маӂь ши а афлат ынтокмай де ла ей время ын каре се арэтасе стяуа.
8 Then he [concealed what he really planned to do and] said to them, “Go to Bethlehem and inquire thoroughly [where] the infant is. When you have found him, [come back and] report to me so that I, myself, can go [there and] worship him, too.”
Апой й-а тримис ла Бетлеем ши ле-а зис: „Дучеци-вэ де черчетаць ку де-амэнунтул деспре Прунк ши, кынд Ыл вець гэси, даци-мь ши мие де штире, ка сэ вин ши еу сэ мэ ынкин Луй.”
9 After the men heard what the king [told them], they went [toward Bethlehem]. To their surprise, the star that they had seen while they were in the eastern [country] went ahead of them [again] until it stood above [the house] where the child was.
Дупэ че ау аскултат пе ымпэратул, маӂий ау плекат. Ши ятэ кэ стяуа пе каре о вэзусерэ ын Рэсэрит мерӂя ынаинтя лор, пынэ че а венит ши с-а оприт дясупра локулуй унде ера Прункул.
10 When they saw the star, they rejoiced greatly [and followed it].
Кынд ау вэзут ей стяуа, н-ау май путут де букурие.
11 They [found] the house and entered it and saw the child and his mother, Mary. They bowed down and worshipped him. Then they opened their treasure [boxes] [MTY] and they gave gold, [costly] frankincense, and myrrh to him.
Ау интрат ын касэ, ау вэзут Прункул ку Мария, мама Луй, с-ау арункат ку фаца ла пэмынт ши И с-ау ынкинат; апой шь-ау дескис вистиерииле ши Й-ау адус дарурь: аур, тэмые ши смирнэ.
12 [Because] God [knew that King Herod planned to kill Jesus], in a dream the men who studied the stars were warned {he warned the men who studied the stars} that they should not return to [King] Herod. So they returned to their country, [but instead of traveling back on the same road, they] went on a different road.
Ын урмэ, ау фост ынштиинцаць де Думнезеу ын вис сэ ну май дя пе ла Ирод ши с-ау ынторс ын цара лор пе ун алт друм.
13 After the men who studied the stars left [Bethlehem], an angel [from] the Lord appeared to Joseph in a dream. He said, “Get up, take the child and his mother, and flee to Egypt. Stay there until I tell you [(sg) that you should leave], because [King] Herod is about [to send soldiers] to look for the child so that they can kill him.”
Дупэ че ау плекат маӂий, ун ынӂер ал Домнулуй се аратэ ын вис луй Иосиф ши-й зиче: „Скоалэ-те, я Прункул ши пе мама Луй, фуӂь ын Еӂипт ши рэмый аколо пынэ ыць вой спуне еу, кэч Ирод аре сэ кауте Прункул ка сэ-Л омоаре.”
14 So Joseph got up, he took the child and his mother [that] night, and they fled to Egypt.
Иосиф с-а скулат, а луат Прункул ши пе мама Луй, ноаптя, ши а плекат ын Еӂипт.
15 They stayed there until [King] Herod died, [and then they left Egypt]. By doing that, it was {they} fulfilled what the prophet [Hosea] wrote, which had been said by the Lord {which the Lord had said}, I have told my son to come out of Egypt.
Аколо а рэмас пынэ ла моартя луй Ирод, ка сэ се ымплиняскэ че фусесе вестит де Домнул прин пророкул каре зиче: „Ам кемат пе Фиул Меу дин Еӂипт.”
16 [While King] Herod [was still living], because he realized that he had been tricked by the men who studied the stars {the men who studied the stars had tricked him}, he became furious. Then, [assuming that Jesus was still in Bethlehem or the surrounding regions], Herod sent [soldiers there] to kill all the boy babies two years old and younger. [Herod calculated how old the baby was], according to what the men who studied the stars told him [about when the star first appeared].
Атунч, Ирод, кынд а вэзут кэ фусесе ыншелат де маӂь, с-а мыният фоарте таре ши а тримис сэ омоаре пе тоць прунчий де парте бэрбэтяскэ, де ла дой ань ын жос, каре ерау ын Бетлеем ши ын тоате ымпрежуримиле луй, потривит ку время пе каре о афласе ынтокмай де ла маӂь.
17 [Because Bethlehem and Ramah towns were in the area where the descendants of Jacob’s wife Rachel lived, when soldiers killed the infant boys], they fulfilled what Jeremiah the prophet wrote,
Атунч с-а ымплинит че фусесе вестит прин пророкул Иеремия, каре зиче:
18 [Women] in Ramah were weeping and wailing loudly. [Women who were the descendants] of Rachel, [the ancestor of the women there] [SYN], were grieving for [what happened to] their children. [Even though people tried to comfort them], they would not be comforted {stop mourning}, because their children were dead.
„Ун ципэт с-а аузит ын Рама, плынӂере ши бочет мулт: Рахела ышь желя копиий ши ну воя сэ фие мынгыятэ, пентру кэ ну май ерау.”
19 After Herod died [and while Joseph and his family were still in Egypt], an angel that the Lord [had sent] appeared to Joseph in Egypt in a dream.
Дупэ че а мурит Ирод, ун ынӂер ал Домнулуй се аратэ ын вис луй Иосиф, ын Еӂипт,
20 He said to Joseph, “Take the child and his mother and go back to Israel [to live], because the people who were looking for the child [in order to kill him] have died.”
ши-й зиче: „Скоалэ-те, я Прункул ши пе мама Луй ши ду-те ын цара луй Исраел, кэч ау мурит чей че кэутау сэ я вяца Прункулуй.”
21 So Joseph took the child and his mother, and they went back to Israel.
Иосиф с-а скулат, а луат Прункул ши пе мама Луй ши а венит ын цара луй Исраел.
22 When Joseph heard that Archaelaus now ruled in Judea [district] instead of his father, [King] Herod [the Great], he was afraid to go there. Because he was warned {[God] warned Joseph} in a dream [that it was still dangerous for them to live in Judea], he [and Mary and Jesus] went to Galilee [District]
Дар, кынд а аузит кэ ын Иудея ымпэрэцеште Архелау, ын локул татэлуй сэу Ирод, с-а темут сэ се дукэ аколо; ши, фиинд ынштиинцат де Думнезеу ын вис, а плекат ын пэрциле Галилеий.
23 to Nazareth [to live there]. The result was that what had been said by the ancient prophets {what the ancient prophets had said} [about the Messiah], that he would be called {people would call him} a Nazareth-man, was fulfilled {came true}.
А венит аколо ши а локуит ынтр-о четате нумитэ Назарет, ка сэ се ымплиняскэ че фусесе вестит прин пророчь: кэ Ел ва фи кемат Назаринян.
