Nae watugwa u Yesu mkisale ka Bethelehemu a Uyahudi mumahiku ang'wa mutemi Herode, eantu nia manyi kupuma kilya na kuli ikapika ku Yerusalemu ikalunga.
2 Jiu vahe'motma Kinima manisia nera inantega kasente'ne? Na'ankure tagra Agri ofuna zage hanati kazigati keteta, mono hunteku e'none.
Ukolipi uyu nutugilwe umutemi wa Ayahudi? Aza kuina nzota akwe kukilya nusese kapika kumukulya.
3 Ama ana nanekema Heroti'ma kini ne'mo nentahino'a, agu'agesamo kore nehuno tarerare nehigeno, Jerusalemi kumate vahe'mo'zanena agrama hiaza hu'naze.
Matungo nu Herode aewija inkani izi akaambwa masigo makulu, i Yerusalemu ihi palung'wi nung'wenso.
4 Heroti'ma pristi vahe'zagane, kasegere'ma ugagota hu'naza vahe'ma magopi zamazeri atru huteno'a, inantega Mesaia'a fore hugahie? huno zamantahige'ne.
Herode akailingiila iakulu ihi nawa neetunza inkani ya antu, akaakolya, “u Kilisto ukutugwa pee?”
5 Hige'za zamagra, agri husmi'za, Judia kaziga Betlehe kumate kasentegahie, na'ankure korapa Anumzamofo kasnampa (profet) ke huama hu'nea ne'mo avon tafepi amanage huno krente'ne,
Akamuila, “ukutugwa ku Bethelehemu a Uyahudi, kunsoko uu aeyandikilwe nianyakidagu,
6 Hagi kagra, Betlehemia, Juda vahe mopafina, kagra Juda vahe'mokizmi ranra kumapintira osasi kumatfana omani'nane, na'ankure kagripinti magora ra nera Israeli vahe ni'ama kegavama hania nera fore hugahie. (Mai 5:2.)
Nue Bethelehemu, ihi ang'wa Yuda, singa wimunino muatongeeli ang'wa Yuda, kunsoko kupuma kitalako uzile mkulu nuziadima iantu ane Israeli.”
7 Hagi Heroti'a frakino oku'a antahi'zane vahera zamagenoka huno, Nankna ana ofumo'a fore hu'ne huno zamantahige'ne.
Herode akaitanga iamanyi ankani kenkunku akaakolya ite matungo kelukulu inzota ai ezigela.
8 Heroti'a Betlehemu viho huno hunezmanteno, anage huno zamasmi'ne, Vutma ana Mofavrea ome haketa ketetma, Agri'ma kefore'ma hanutma eme nasminke'na, nagranena anazanke hu'na monora ome hunta'neno.
Akaatuma alongole ku Bethelehemu, akalunga, longoli kiisa uende mumuetume ung'wana nutugilwe. Matungo angamamuona, ulete inkani nunene nihuma kuza kumukulya.”
9 Ana nanekema kini ne'mo'ma hige'za antahite'za, nevu'za ko'ma zage hanati kaziga mani'neza ke'naza ofumo kagota huzmanteno nevige'za keme nevazageno ana Mofavre mani'nea nomofo agofetu eme otige'za ke'naze.
Nai amija umtemi, ikalongoleka numuhinzo wao, ni nzota iyo naeamiine kukilya ikaatongeela ikimika migulya apo nung'wana utugiwe.
10 Ana ofuma negageno'a tusi'a muse zamo zamagu'afina avite'ne.
Nai amiona inzota ikalowa ikulu.
11 Ana nompi emareri'za ana Mofavrene nerera Mariane nege'za, zamugosa regati kepri hu'za mono hunte'naze. Eri'zama vu'naza feno'zana anagi'za, musezama ami'nazana, golima, mananentake paurane (frankincense), mere'ne (myrrh) ami'naze.
Ikingila mnyumba ikamuona ung'wana nutugilwe nu Mariamu unyinya wakwe. Ikamiloelya nukumukulya. Ikatungula imaintu nimaza naiatite ikamupa.
12 Anumzamo'ma ava'nafi zamasmino Herotintera oviho huno'ma hu'nea kea nentahiza, antahi'zane vahe'mo'za oti'za rugantegati mopa zamirega vu'naze.
Itunda akaahugulya kukeela ndoti kusuka kung'wa Herode, kululo, ikahega kusuka kihe ao kukeela nzila ngiza.
13 Antahi'zane vahe'ma vutageno'a, Ra Anumzamofo ankeromo Josefena ava'nafi efore huno asmi'ne, Otio! Mofavrene, nerera'nena znavrenka Isipi frenka vuo, anantega umani'nege'na Nagrama kasmisugenka eno, na'ankure Heroti'a ana Mofavre hakreno ahe friku nehie huno asami'ne.
Nai akondya kuhega, malaika akamuzeela Yusufu kukeela ndoti akalunga, “Uka, muhole ung'wana nu nyinya wakwe mumankeele ku Misri. Musige kuko mpaka ninzemuila kunsoko u Herode wenda ukumupenza amubulage.
14 Anage higeno Josefe'a otino ana Mofavrene, nererane ana kenage agu'afi zanavreno Isipi vu'ne.
Utiku wuwo u Yusufu akauka akamuhola ung'wana nu nyinya wakwe ikamankiila ku Misri.
15 Anantega Isip vuno umani'negeno Heroti'a fri'ne. Ana'ma hu'neana Anumzamo kasnampa ne'mofo asmigeno korapa kre'nea kemofo nena'a efore hu'ne, Isipitira Nagra Ne'mofavre'ni'a agi hugeno e'ne. (Hos 11:1.)
Akikie kuko mpaka u Herode ikasha. Iko naikilingiligwe numunyakidagu, “Kupuma ku Misri numitangile ung'waane.”
16 Anante Heroti'ma keama, antahi'zane vahe'mo'za revatgama hazageno'a, agra tusi'a rimpa he'ne. Agra vahe huzmanteno, Betlehemi kumapinti ene, ana tva'onte me'nea kumapinti, zagegafu'zmimo tare zagekafureti urami'nea mofavre'zaga ome zamahe friho huno antahi'zane vahe'mo'za ofugu'ma asami'za, e'inahu'zana fore hugahie hazageno antahi'nea knagu anage hunora zamasami'ne.
Kululo u Herode, akalunga kina iantu awa niahugu antendela ubi, akalaka. Akalagiilya kubulagwa ehi iang'enya niagoha ku Bethelehemu niatite miaka ibiile ni pihe apang'wanso kunsoko aiwakondya kulinga kukeela antu ao niamanyi ankani.
17 Anante korapa mago kasnampa ne' Jeremaia Anumzamo asmigeno hu'nea kemofo nena'a fore hu'ne,
Ingi nailakondigwa ulukani naeluligitigwe kukeela mnyakidagu Yeremia,
18 Mago ageru Rama kumateti antahi'naze, zavi neteno tusi'a asuza eri'ne, Reseli'a mofavre rmima'agu zavi ate'ne, higeno agri'ma azeri tagane'zankura ave'osi'ne, na'ankure magore huno omani tfa higeno'e. (Jere 31:15.)
Luli lukigela ku Ramah, kilelo nikinyauwai kikulu, u Raheli akazealila iana akwe, hangi akahita kupumbuligwa, kunsoko ikutile singaaziziona hangi.”
19 Heroti'ma fritegeno, mago Ra Anumzamofo ankeromo Josefena ava'nafi eno Isipi eme asmi'ne,
U Herode naiwasha, umalaika akamuhanga u Yusufu kukeela ndoti kuko ku Misri akalunga,
20 Otinka, Mofavrene nererane zanavarenka Israeli mopare vuo, na'ankure ahe'naku hakre'naza vahera hago fri'naze.
“Uka muhole ung'wana nunyinya wakwe, mlongole mihe a Israeli kunsoko awa naienda upenza upanga wa ng'wana akuza.”
21 Anage higeno Josefe'a otino ana Mofavrene, nererane zanavreno ete Israeli mopare e'ne.
U Yusufu akauka akamuhola ung'wana nu nyinya wakwe, ikolongola mihe a Israeli.
22 Hianagi Heroti nemofo Akelasi, nefa no erino Judia kaziga kegava hie kema nentahino'a, ana kaziga vuzanku koro hu'ne. Anumzamo ava'nafima asmi'nea kante anteno, agra (Josefe) atreno Galili kaziga vu'ne.
Ingi gwa nae wija kina Arikelau ae mutemi Yuda pang'wa tata wakwe u Herode. Akogopa kulongola kung'wanso. Matungo ni Tunda nae wamuhugula kukeela mundoti, akahega akalongola mukisali ka Galilaya.

Hangi akalongola kikie mukisali nikitangwa Nazareti. Ike aekekondaniye iko naikiligitigwe kukeela nzila aanyakedagu, kina ukitangwa Mnazareti.
