Matthew 2
1 After Jesus was born in Bethlehem of Judea in the days of Herod the king, learned men from the east arrived in Jerusalem saying,
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 “Where is he who was born King of the Jews? We saw his star in the east and have 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 heard this, 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 Herod brought together all the chief priests and scribes of the people, and he asked them, “Where is the Christ to be born?”
Nipele, ŵaaŵilasile pamo achakulungwa wose ŵambopesi ni ŵakwiganya Malajisyo ga Akunnungu gaŵapele che Musa, ŵausisye kuti, “Ana Kilisito Jwakuwombola chapagwe kwapi?”
5 They said to him, “In Bethlehem of Judea, for this is what was 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 'But you, Bethlehem, in the land of Judah, are not the least among the leaders of Judah, for from you will come a ruler who will shepherd 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 secretly called the learned men to ask them exactly what time the star had appeared.
Pelepo, che Helode ŵaaŵilasile pachisyepela ŵanyawo ŵaŵaimanyichisye nnope ndondwa ni ŵausisye katema chi jele ndondwa jo pijakopochele.
8 He sent them to Bethlehem, saying, “Go and search carefully for the young child. When you have found him, bring me word, so that I also may come and worship him.”
Nipele ŵatumile ku Beselehemu aninkuti, “Njaulanje nkauchilichisye uchenene ngani sya jwele mwanache. Mwamalaga kummona, nkauje kukuusalila, ni une jwakwe nyaule ngaatindiŵalile.”
9 After they had heard the king, they went on their way, and the star that they had seen in the east went before them until it came and stood still 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 very great joy.
Paŵajiweni jele ndondwa jo ŵasengwile nnope.
11 They went into the house and saw the young child with Mary his mother. They fell down and worshiped him. They opened their treasures and offered him gifts of gold, 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 God warned them in a dream not to return to Herod, so they departed to their own country by another way.
Akunnungu ŵakanyisye mu sagamisi kuti akaujila sooni ku che Helode, nipele ŵausile kumangwao kwa litala line.
13 After they had departed, an angel of the Lord appeared to Joseph in a dream and said, “Get up, take the young child and his mother, and flee to Egypt. Remain there until I tell you, 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 That night Joseph rose and took the young child and his mother and departed into Egypt.
Nipele che Yusufu ŵajimwiche ni kunjigala mwanache pamo ni achikulugwe, ŵatyosile chilo, ŵajawile ku Misili.
15 He remained there until the death of Herod. This fulfilled what the Lord had spoken through the prophet, “Out of Egypt I have 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 had been mocked by the learned men, was very angry. He sent and killed all the male children that were in Bethlehem and in all that region who were two years old and under, according to the time that he had determined exactly from the learned 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 what had been spoken through Jeremiah the prophet,
Yeleyo ni igatite kuŵa isyene maloŵe gagaŵechetekwe kwa litala lya che Yelemia juŵaliji jwakulondola jwa Akunnungu achitiji,
18 “A voice was heard in Ramah, weeping and great mourning, Rachel weeping for her children, and she refused to be comforted, because they were no more.”
“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 When Herod died, behold, an angel of the Lord appeared in a dream to Joseph in Egypt and said,
Paŵawile che Helode, katumetume jwa kwinani jwa Ambuje ŵankopochele che Yusufu mu sagamisi ku Misili kula,
20 “Get up and take the child and his mother and go to the land of Israel, for those who sought the child's life are dead.”
ŵansalile, “Njimuche! Munjigale mwanache jo pamo ni achikulugwe, mmuje sooni ku chilambo cha Isilaeli, pakuŵa ŵandu ŵaŵasakaga kummulaga mwanache jo ŵamale kwasika.”
21 Joseph rose, took the 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 was reigning over Judea in the place of his father Herod, he was afraid to go there. After God warned him in a dream, he left for the region 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 went and lived in a city called Nazareth. This fulfilled what had been spoken through the prophets, that he would 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.”
