UMathewu 2
1 Kwathi uJesu esezelwe eBhethelehema yeJudiya, ensukwini zikaHerodi inkosi, khangela, kwafika izazi eJerusalema zivela empumalanga,
Judia mookugv Betlehem banggu lo Jisunyi bvngtoku, Herod gv Dvbv bv rila doori hoka. Vbvridanam gula doonyi chaagu mooku lokv nyido takar a chinv nyi mego Jerusalem lo aatoku
2 zisithi: Ungaphi ozelwe eyinkosi yamaJuda? Ngoba sibonile inkanyezi yakhe empumalanga, njalo sesize ukumkhonza.
okv tvvkato, “Jius vdwgv Dvbv bv rijinv vmi anga nga ogolo bvngpv? Ngonu ninyigv takar a chaagu kiambv chaalin nama kaala ninyia kumdujodubv aapvnv.”
3 Ngakho uHerodi inkosi esezwile wakhathazeka, leJerusalema yonke kanye laye.
Vdwlo Dvbv Herod sum tvvpa tokudw, hv achialvbv mvngru toku, okv Jerusalem gv nyi mvnwng ngvka.
4 Esebuthanisile bonke abapristi abakhulu lababhali babantu, wabuza kubo ukuthi uKristu uzazalelwa ngaphi.
Nw Nyibu Butvnv mvnwngnga okv pvbv tamsarnv vdwa gokkum tola bunua tvvkato, “Ogolodw Kristonyi dwrwboklin jikuv?”
5 Basebesithi kuye: EBhethelehema yeJudiya; ngoba kulotshiwe ngokunjalo ngumprofethi ukuthi:
“Judia mookugv Betlehem lo,” bunu mirwkto. “Vkvlvgavbolo nyijwk vdwv svbv lvkpvpv:
6 Lawe, Bhethelehema, lizwe lakoJuda, kawusuye omncinyane lakanye phakathi kwababusi bakoJuda; ngoba kuzavela kuwe umbusi, ozakwelusa abantu bami uIsrayeli.
‘Judah mookugv kvdw Betlehem a, no Judah mookugv pamtv mvnwng lokv miang nvgobv ribwng kumare; noogv lokv rigv nvgo linre, hv ngoogv Israel nyi vdwa rigvre.’”
7 Khona uHerodi, esezibizile izazi ensitha, wabuzisisa kuzo isikhathi sokubonakala kwenkanyezi.
Vkvlvgabv Herod chaagu lokv kaalwknv nyi vdwa kvba doosi kolo goklwk toku okv bunugv lokv chintoku takar v dw tvrwk lo boklin pvnvnyi vla.
8 Wasezithuma eBhethelehema wathi: Hambani libuzisise ngomntwana omncinyane; kuzakuthi nxa limtholile, libike kimi, ukuze lami ngiye ngimkhonze.
Vbvrikunamv nw bunua svbv gaam mingv rikula Betlehem lo vngmu toku: “Vngnyika okv anga nga alvbv makar laka, okv vdwlo nonu mapa ridw, ngaaka chimu labv, ngo ka vngla ninyia kumdujodubv.”
9 Kwathi seziyizwile inkosi zasuka zahamba; njalo khangela, inkanyezi, ezayibona empumalanga, yahamba phambi kwazo, yaze yafika yema phezu kwalapho usane olwalukhona.
Okv vkvlvgabv bunu vngrap toku, okv bunugv lamtvlo bunu doonyi chaagu kiamgv takar kaanam anga lvkodv kaapa toku. Vdwlo bunu um kaapa tokudw, bunu achialvbv mvngpu laku, bunu achialv himpu punya toku! Hv bunua vngcho-vngcho gvla anga gv dooku lo vnglwk gvtoku.
10 Zathi ukuyibona inkanyezi zathokoza ngentokozo enkulu kakhulu.
11 Zasezingena endlini, zabona usane kanye loMariya unina, zawela phansi zalukhonza, zavula impahla zazo eziligugu zalukhunga ngezipho, igolide lempepha lemure.
Bunu naam arwnglo aatoku, okv vdwlo bunu vmi anga nga anv Meri nga lvkobv doodubv kaato kudw, bunu lvbwng ngv kumpvla gublwk dvla ninyia kumtojotoku. Bunugv amin gvnamv ain go, nampunv tvli go, okv nampunv amokayok jungnv guka naalinla ninyia jitoku.
12 Kwathi sezilayiwe nguNkulunkulu ephutsheni ukuthi zingabuyeli kuHerodi, zasuka zabuyela elizweni lakizo ngenye indlela.
Vbvrikunamv bunu akusunv lamtvbv vngla bunugv mooku lo vngkurla vngtoku, ogulvgavbolo Pwknvyarnv bunua yumalo gamrwto Herod gv dookubv vngpit kumabvkv vla mintoku.
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.
Bunugv vngyuro kochingbv, yuma goloka Ahtu gv nyidogindung gonv Josep gvlo aala mintoku, “Herod vmi anga nga mvkidubv vla ninyia makar kardu. Vkvlvgabv gudung tvka, okv vmi anga hala anv nga vnggv laila Ijipt lo kisum gvtoka, okv vdwlo ngo vnglakukv vla mima redw hoka doobwng laka.”
14 Wavuka-ke wathatha usane lonina ebusuku wasuka waya eGibhithe,
Josep dokrap toku, vmi anga hala anv nga vnggv laila ayu Ijipt lo kisum toku,
15 wasehlala khona kwaze kwaba yikufa kukaHerodi; ukuze kugcwaliswe okwakhulunywa yiNkosi ngomprofethi isithi: Ngiyibizile indodana yami iphume eGibhithe.
Nw hoka Herod gv sima dvdvlobv dobwngto. So si Ahtu gv nyijwk vdwlo, minpvnam gaam “Ijipt lokv ngoogv Kuunyilo nga gokpv kunv,” vnam a jvjvbv rilin modukubv si ripvnv.
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.
Vdwlo Herod chaagu kiamgv kaalwknv nyi vdwv ninyia mvvpv kunvnyi vla chinto kudw, nw achialvbv dokcha toku.

17 Kwasekugcwaliseka okwakhulunywa nguJeremiya umprofethi, ukuthi:
Svbvrila nyijwk Jeremia gv minam v jvjv bv rilin toku:
18 Kwezwakala ilizwi eRama, ukukhala lokulila lokudabuka okukhulu, uRasheli elilela abantwana bakhe, njalo engavumi ukududuzwa, ngoba bengasekho.
“Rama lo dutv rungnv adu go tvvpadu, hidwkla kapnam adu go. Rakel gv kuu vdwv siro kunam lvkwngbv: nw maaku jimakv vla, siinyimar mvla kapdu.”
19 Kodwa kwathi esefile uHerodi, khangela, ingilosi yeNkosi yabonakala ephutsheni kuJosefa eGibhithe,
Herod gv siro kochingbv, Ahtu gv nyidogindung ako Ijipt lo Josep gv yumalo aalwk toku
20 isithi: Vuka uthathe umntwana omncinyane lonina, uye elizweni lakoIsrayeli; ngoba sebefile ababedinga umphefumulo womntwana omncinyane.
okv minto, “Gudungto, vmi anga hala okv ninyigv anv nga naalaila, Israel mookubv vngkur tokuka, ogulvgavbolo vmia mvkidubv rungnv vdwv siroku.”
21 Wavuka-ke wathatha umntwana omncinyane lonina wasefika elizweni lakoIsrayeli.
Vkvlvgabv Josep gudung toku, vmi hala okv anv ha naalaila, Israel mookubv vngkur gvtoku.
22 Kodwa esezwile ukuthi uAkelawu usebusa eJudiya esikhundleni sikaHerodi uyise, wesaba ukuya khona; kodwa esexwayisiwe nguNkulunkulu ephutsheni, wasuka waya kungxenye zeGalili,
Vbvritola vdwlo Josep Arkelaus Judia lo ninyigv abu Herod gv Dvbv svngtung nga svngsit pvkv vla tvvpa pvkudw, nw hoka vngdubv busuto. Ninyia yumalo abuyabv mintamto, vkvlvgabv hv Galili gv mooku lo vngtoku
23 wasefika wahlala emzini othiwa yiNazaretha; ukuze kugcwaliseke okwakhulunywa ngabaprofethi ukuthi: Uzabizwa ngokuthi ngumNazaretha.
