Mataio 2
1 A HANAUIA o Iesu ma Betelehema i Iudea, i ke kau ia Herode ke alii, aia hoi, kele mai la na magoi mai ka aina hikina mai a Ierusalema,
After Jesus was born in Bethlehem in Judea, during the time of King Herod, Magi from the east arrived in Jerusalem,
2 I ka i ana mai, Ai la ihea ka mea i hanau iho nei i aliii no ka poe Iudaio? No ka mea, ua ike makou ma ka aina hikina i kona hoku, a ua hele mai nei makou e kukuli hoomaikai ia ia.
asking, “Where is the One who has been born King of the Jews? We saw His star in the east and have come to worship Him.”
3 A lohe ae la o Herode ke alii, apoapo ae la kona oili, oia a me ko Ierusalema a pau.
When King Herod heard this, he was disturbed, and all Jerusalem with him.
4 Alaila, houluulu ae la ia i ka poe kahuna nui a me ka poe kakauolelo a na kanaka, ninau mai la oia ia lakou, Ai la ihea kahi e hanau ai o ka Mesia?
And when he had assembled all the chief priests and scribes of the people, he asked them where the Christ was to be born.
5 Hai aku la lakou ia ia, Aia i Betelehema i Indea nei; no ka mea, ua palapalaia e ke kaula penei,
“In Bethlehem in Judea,” they replied, “for this is what the prophet has written:
6 O oe, e Betelehema, i ka aina o Iuda, aole no oe ka mea uuku loa iwaena o ko Iuda poe alii; no ka mea, mailoko mai ou e hele mai ana kekahi alii, nana e hoomalu i ko'u poe kanaka o ka Iseraela.
‘But you, Bethlehem, in the land of Judah, are by no means least among the rulers of Judah, for out of you will come a ruler who will be the shepherd of My people Israel.’”
7 Alaila, kii malu aku la o Herode i ua mau magoi la, ninau pono aku la ia lakou i maopopo ai ka manawa i ikea aku ai ua hoku la.
Then Herod called the Magi secretly and learned from them the exact time the star had appeared.
8 Hoouna aku la oia ia lakou i Betelehema, i aku la, Ou haele oukou, e imi pono aku i ua keiki la; a loaa hoi, alaila e hai mai ia'u, i hele aku hoi au e kukuli hoomaikai ia ia.
And sending them to Bethlehem, he said: “Go and search carefully for the Child, and when you find Him, report to me, so that I too may go and worship Him.”
9 A lohe ae la i ka ke alii, haele aku la lakou; aia hoi, ka hoku a lakou i ike ai ma ka aina hikina, lele e aku la ia imua o lakou, a hele aku la, a kau iho la maluna pono o kahi e noho ana o ua keiki la,
After they had heard the king, they went on their way, and the star they had seen in the east went ahead of them until it stood over the place where the Child was.
10 A ike aku lakou i ua hoku la, hauoli nui loa ae la lakou.
When they saw the star, they rejoiced with great delight.
11 Komo lakou iloko o ka hale, a ike aku la i ua keiki la a me kona makuwahine o Maria, a moe iho la lakou, hoomaikai aku la ia ia; a wehe ae la lakou i ko lakou waihona waiwai, haawi aku la lakou nana i ke gula, a me ka libano, a me ka mura.
On coming to the house, they saw the Child with His mother Mary, and they fell down and worshiped Him. Then they opened their treasures and presented Him with gifts of gold and frankincense and myrrh.
12 A ma ka moeuhane, papaia mai lakou, aole e hoi bou aku io Herode la, a ma kekahi alanui e ae i hoi aku ai lakou i ko lakou aina.
And having been warned in a dream not to return to Herod, they withdrew to their country by another route.
13 A hala aku la lakou, aia hoi, ikea aku la ka anela a ka Haku e Iosepa i ka moeuhane, i mai la, E ala, e lawe i ke keiki a me kona makuwahine, a holo aku i Aigupita; malaila e noho ai, a olelo hon aku au ia oe; no ka mea, e imi mai ana o Herode i ke keiki, e pepehi ia ia.
When the Magi had gone, an angel of the Lord appeared to Joseph in a dream. “Get up!” he said. “Take the Child and His mother and flee to Egypt. Stay there until I tell you, for Herod is going to search for the Child to kill Him.”
14 Ala ae la ia, lawe ae la i ke keiki a me kona makuwahine i ka po, a holo aku la i Aigupita;
So he got up, took the Child and His mother by night, and withdrew to Egypt,
15 Malaila ia i noho ai a make o Herode. Nolaila, ko ae la ka olelo a ka Haku ma ke kaula, i ka i ana mai, Ua kahea aku au i ka'u keiki mai Aigupita mai.
where he stayed until the death of Herod. This fulfilled what the Lord had spoken through the prophet: “Out of Egypt I called My Son.”
16 Alaila, ike ae la o Herode, ua hoohokaia oia e ka poe magoi, ukiuki loa iho la ia, kena aku la ia, a luku aku la i na keikikane a pau o Betelehema, a o na wahi a puni e kokoke ana, i ka poe elua makahiki a hala ilalo, i ka manawa i ninau pono aku ai ia i ka poe magoi.
When Herod saw that he had been outwitted by the Magi, he was filled with rage. Sending orders, he put to death all the boys in Bethlehem and its vicinity who were two years old and under, according to the time he had learned from the Magi.
17 Alaila, ko ae la ka olelo a ke kaula a Ieretnia, i i mai ai,
Then what was spoken through the prophet Jeremiah was fulfilled:
18 Ua lohea ka leo ma Rama, he pihe, he uwe ana, a me ke kanikau nui; e uwe ana o Rahela no kana mau keiki, aole loa ia e na, no ka mea, aole ae nei lakou.
“A voice is heard in Ramah, weeping and great mourning, Rachel weeping for her children, and refusing to be comforted, because they are no more.”
19 A make o Herode, alaila ikea aku la kekahi anela a ka Haku e Iosepa ma ka moeuhane i Aigupita;
After Herod died, an angel of the Lord appeared in a dream to Joseph in Egypt.
20 I mai la, E ala oe e lawe i ke keiki a me kona makuwahine, a e hoi aku i ka aina o ka Iseraela; no ka mea, ua make ka poe i imi mai e pepehi i ua keiki nei.
“Get up!” he said. “Take the Child and His mother and go to the land of Israel, for those seeking the Child’s life are now dead.”
21 Ala'e la ia, lawe ae la i ua keiki la, a me kona makuwahine, a hele aku la i ka aina o ka Iseraela.
So Joseph got up, took the Child and His mother, and went to the land of Israel.
22 Aka, lohe ae la ia, o Arekelau ke alii ma ludea i pani no ka hakahaka o kona makuakane o Herode, makau iho la ia i ka hele aku malaila: a aoia mai ai ma ka moeuhane, hoi aku ia i ka moku o Galilaia.
But when he learned that Archelaus was reigning in Judea in place of his father Herod, he was afraid to go there. And having been warned in a dream, he withdrew to the district of Galilee,
23 A hiki aku la ia i kekahi kulanakauhale o Nazareta ka inoa, noho iho la ia ilaila: pela i ko ai ka olelo a ka poe kaula, E kapaia oia he Nazarene.
and he went and lived in a town called Nazareth. So was fulfilled what was spoken through the prophets: “He will be called a Nazarene.”
