Mateus 2

Ahenja kuhuma mbande ya Ngeha

1 Yesu kakibhelekwa kumbwani ya Betelehemu, mu nkoa ghwa Yudea, manjubha agho Helode kakibhegha mutwa. Kamu, mbole ya kubhelekwa Yesu, bhanautendehi bha kumanya ndondwa kuhuma mbande ya ngeha bhakehika ku Yelusalemu 2 bhakikonya, "Kabhengha kwoki aywo mwana ywakabhelekitwe, ywakapala kubhegha Mutwa ywa Akaayahudi? Tuyibhona ndondwa yake payibwitukila kungeha, na twenga tuhika kumtundamila."

3 Mutwa Helode pakayihwite nnando aghu kakibhaghaya, ywombe papamo na bhandu boha bhubho bha ku Yelusalemu. 4 Basi kakiakema papamu mandundame akulu bhoha na ahunda bha Malaghilo gha Musa, kakiakonya "Kilisito katabhelekwa kwoki?"

5 Bhombe bhakinng’ombela, "Katabhelekwa kumbwani ya Betelehemu kunkoa ghwa Yudea," Handa pakalembite mbuye ywa Chapanga.

6 "Naghwenga Betelehemu munnima ghwa Yudea,

Ghwenga ghunndoko ng’obhe nkati ya hitami ihwadali hya ku Yudea;

Mana, kwa ghwenga katabwituka kilongohi

ywakapala kualongoha bhandu bhangu Akaaisilaeli."

7 Apo ndo Helode kakiakema pambwegha abho atendehi bha kumanya ndondwa, kakiakonya bhammanyihe nndaluko ghwa tela ghuubhonekanite yila ndondwa. 8 Mbole kakibhalaghila aghende Betelehemu pakiaghombela. "Nng’ende mukahingukihe maha mihalo ya mwana aywo. Mbole ya kummona mumuyihile mihalo yake, ngati na nenga ng’ende kuntundamila."

9 Mbole ya kunnyihwa Mutwa, abho atendehi bha kumanya ndondwa bhakibhuka, na kamu yila ndondwa bhaayibhonite mbande ya ngeha yikialongoha, nabhombe bhakiyitughila mbaka payiyimite pakabheghite mwana. 10 Paayibhonite yila ndondwa yiyima bhakiyelelwa na kulumbilila kwa uyelelo. 11 Paayingilite unyumba bhakimmona mwana papamu na Malia mama ghwake, bhakichutama na bhakintundamila. Ndo bhakihughula lijamanda na bhakitola hupo hyabhe, bhakinpegha mahabha na ubanu na ntela ghwa bhana.

12 Mbole Chapanga kakiakinya mululoto bhakotoke kummuyila Helode, ndo bhakibhuya ukaya kwabhe kwa njila yingi.
