1 Kwathi uJesu esezelwe eBhethelehema yeJudiya, ensukwini zikaHerodi inkosi, khangela, kwafika izazi eJerusalema zivela empumalanga,
Leng Herod vaipoh laiyin, Judea gam Bethlehem a Yeshua ana peng in ahi. Hiche pet chun solam gamkai hoa kon in miching phabep Jerusalem khopia ahung un, amaho chun adong un,
2 zisithi: Ungaphi ozelwe eyinkosi yamaJuda? Ngoba sibonile inkanyezi yakhe empumalanga, njalo sesize ukumkhonza.
“Juda nam mite lengthah hungpeng chu hoilaiya umham? Kei hon Ama ahsi hung sohdoh chu solam a kamu uvin chule Ama chu, hou dinga hunga kahiuve,” atiuvin ahi.
3 Ngakho uHerodi inkosi esezwile wakhathazeka, leJerusalema yonke kanye laye.
Leng Herod chun hiche thu ajah phat in ama le Jerusalem a cheng jouse alung kham lheh jeng un ahi.
4 Esebuthanisile bonke abapristi abakhulu lababhali babantu, wabuza kubo ukuthi uKristu uzazalelwa ngaphi.
Aman thempu pipui ho leh hou dan thuhil ho akhom in “Messiah hoilai muna peng ding ham?” tin amaho chu adong tai.
5 Basebesithi kuye: EBhethelehema yeJudiya; ngoba kulotshiwe ngokunjalo ngumprofethi ukuthi:
Amahon adonbut un, “Judea gam Bethlehem a atiuve, ajeh chu themgao vin hiti hin ajih e:
6 Lawe, Bhethelehema, lizwe lakoJuda, kawusuye omncinyane lakanye phakathi kwababusi bakoJuda; ngoba kuzavela kuwe umbusi, ozakwelusa abantu bami uIsrayeli.
‘Chule nangma, vo Bethlehem Judah gam'a um, Judah khopia vaipo holah a aneopen nahi poi, ijeh inem itileh nangma a kona vaipo khat, kami Israelte ching dingpa chu hung ding ahi,’” atiuve.
7 Khona uHerodi, esezibizile izazi ensitha, wabuzisisa kuzo isikhathi sokubonakala kwenkanyezi.
Chutah in Herod chun miching ho chu guhthim in aki houpin, amahoa kon in ahsi akimu masat phat chu ahedoh tai.
8 Wasezithuma eBhethelehema wathi: Hambani libuzisise ngomntwana omncinyane; kuzakuthi nxa limtholile, libike kimi, ukuze lami ngiye ngimkhonze.
Chutah in aman amaho chu aseipeh in, “Bethlehem a che uvin chule naosen chu ching thei tah in gahol un, ama chu namu teng uleh, hungkit un chule keima neiseipeh un, chutia keima jong kaga chea Ama chu kaga hou theina ding in,” ati.
9 Kwathi seziyizwile inkosi zasuka zahamba; njalo khangela, inkanyezi, ezayibona empumalanga, yahamba phambi kwazo, yaze yafika yema phezu kwalapho usane olwalukhona.
Lengpa thu ajah jou uchun miching ho chu ache uvin ahileh, solam a ahsi amu uchu amasang uva ache peh in, Bethlehem lama apuiyun chule naosen umna mun chunga chun akingan ahi.
10 Zathi ukuyibona inkanyezi zathokoza ngentokozo enkulu kakhulu.
Amahon ahsi chu amu phat uvin, amaho chu kipanan alungu alodim tai!
11 Zasezingena endlini, zabona usane kanye loMariya unina, zawela phansi zalukhonza, zavula impahla zazo eziligugu zalukhunga ngezipho, igolide lempepha lemure.
Amaho insunga alut uva ahileh naosen chu anu Mary toh ana umkhom amu uvin, chuin amaho aboh khup uvin, Ama chu ahou tauve. Chuin amahon agou bom'u chu ahong doh uvin, ama chu Sana, Bego chule Myrrh kipa thilpeh in ape tauvin ahi.
12 Kwathi sezilayiwe nguNkulunkulu ephutsheni ukuthi zingabuyeli kuHerodi, zasuka zabuyela elizweni lakizo ngenye indlela.
Chujouvin amahon adalhah tauvin ahileh, Pathen in amang uva Herod heng lama kile lou dinga agihsal jeh'u chun, lam chom aho uvin agam lam uva akile tauve.
13 Kwathi sezisukile, khangela, ingilosi yeNkosi ibonakala kuJosefa ephutsheni, isithi: Vuka uthathe usane lonina, ubusubalekela eGibhithe, ube khona ngize ngikutshele; ngoba uHerodi uzaludinga usane, ukuze alubulale.
Miching ho ache doh jou uvin, Pakai vantil khat Joseph mang'in akilah in, “Kipatdoh in! Egypt gama naosen le anu chutoh jam uvin. Hiche mun achun hung kile kit dinga kaseipeh kahsen umden un, ajeh chu Herod in naosen chu tha dinga ahol ding ahi” tin aseipeh tai.
14 Wavuka-ke wathatha usane lonina ebusuku wasuka waya eGibhithe,
Chuche jan chun naosen chutoh anu Mary chu Joseph in apuiyin Egypt'a din, hiche mun chu adalha tauvin ahi.
15 wasehlala khona kwaze kwaba yikufa kukaHerodi; ukuze kugcwaliswe okwakhulunywa yiNkosi ngomprofethi isithi: Ngiyibizile indodana yami iphume eGibhithe.
Chule Herod thi kahsen chua chun aum den tauve. Hiche hi Pakaiyin themgao kam'a ana phondohsa: “Keiman ka Chapa chu Egypt a kakou doh e” ti gui lhunna ahi.
16 Kwathi uHerodi, esebonile ukuthi uphicwe yizazi, wathukuthela kakhulu, wathuma wabulala abantwana bonke ababeseBhethelehema lemingceleni yayo yonke, kusukela eminyakeni emibili langaphansi, njengesikhathi abebuzisise ngaso kuzazi.
Miching hon angol bol'u Herod chun ahet doh phat in alung hang lheh jengtai. Aman chapang pasal jouse, miching hon ahsi so masat phat aseiyu totoh in, kum nia lhah noi-lamse Bethlehem sung le akimvel sea sepai ho asol in agatha sahtai.
17 Kwasekugcwaliseka okwakhulunywa nguJeremiya umprofethi, ukuthi:
Herod khansetna hi Pathen in themgao Jeremiah henga ana seisa:
18 Kwezwakala ilizwi eRama, ukukhala lokulila lokudabuka okukhulu, uRasheli elilela abantwana bakhe, njalo engavumi ukududuzwa, ngoba bengasekho.
“Ramah ah ka awgin akijai-Kana le lunghemna nasatah chu! Rachel in achate akapin, amaho athitah jeh uvin, lhepbi ding anom tapoi,” kiti chu gui lhunna ahi.
19 Kodwa kwathi esefile uHerodi, khangela, ingilosi yeNkosi yabonakala ephutsheni kuJosefa eGibhithe,
Herod athi phat in, Pakai vantil khat chu Joseph henga amang in, Egypt a aumpet in ahung kilah in,
20 isithi: Vuka uthathe umntwana omncinyane lonina, uye elizweni lakoIsrayeli; ngoba sebefile ababedinga umphefumulo womntwana omncinyane.
“Kipatdoh in naosen chule anu chu Israel gam'a puikit in, ijeh inem itileh naosen tha ding ana goho chu athi tauve” tin vantil in aseipeh in ahi.
21 Wavuka-ke wathatha umntwana omncinyane lonina wasefika elizweni lakoIsrayeli.
Chuin Joseph akipat doh in chule Israel gam lama Yeshua le anutoh ahung kile tauve.
22 Kodwa esezwile ukuthi uAkelawu usebusa eJudiya esikhundleni sikaHerodi uyise, wesaba ukuya khona; kodwa esexwayisiwe nguNkulunkulu ephutsheni, wasuka waya kungxenye zeGalili,
Ahinlah aman Judea vaipo thahpa chu Herod chapa Archelaus ahi ti ahetphat in, chuche mun a gache ding akicha tai. Ajan manga gihsalna amutah jeh in Galilee gam lam a ding in akipat doh tai.
23 wasefika wahlala emzini othiwa yiNazaretha; ukuze kugcwaliseke okwakhulunywa ngabaprofethi ukuthi: Uzabizwa ngokuthi ngumNazaretha.
Hiti chun hiche insung chu Nazareth kiti khopi khat a chun aga cheuvin chule hichea chun acheng tauve. Hiti chun themgao thusei “Ama Nazareth mi kiti ding ahi” kiti chu agui lhung tan ahi.
