Matthew 2 (EKKPKP)

1Pärast seda kui Jeesus oli sündinud Petlemmas Juudamaal kuningas Heroodese valitsemisajal, tulid targad mehed idast Jeruusalemma.After Jesus was born in Bethlehem in Judea, during the time of King Herod, Magi from the east arrived in Jerusalem,

2„Kus on juutide kuningas, kes sündis?“ küsisid nad. „Me nägime tema tähte idas ja tulime teda kummardama.“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.”

3Kui kuningas Heroodes sellest kuulis, muutus ta väga rahutuks ja kogu Jeruusalemm koos temaga.When King Herod heard this, he was disturbed, and all Jerusalem with him.

4Heroodes kutsus kokku kõik ülempreestrid ja rahva vaimulikud õpetajad ning küsis neilt, kus Messias pidi sündima.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„Petlemmas Juudamaal,“ vastasid nad talle, „sest nii kirjutas prohvet:“In Bethlehem in Judea,” they replied, “for this is what the prophet has written:

6„Petlemm Juudamaal, sa ei ole kindlasti Juuda linnadest kõige tähtsusetum, sest sinust tuleb juht, kellest saab mu rahva Iisraeli karjane.““‘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.’”

7Siis kutsus Heroodes targad mehed, rääkis nendega omaette ja uuris neilt täpselt, millal täht oli ilmunud.Then Herod called the Magi secretly and learned from them the exact time the star had appeared.

8Ta saatis nad Petlemma sõnadega: „Kui te sinna jõuate, otsige laps üles. Kui te ta leiate, andke mulle teada, et ka mina saaksin minna teda kummardama.“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.”

9Pärast seda, kui nad olid ära kuulanud, mis kuningal öelda oli, läksid nad oma teed, ning täht, mida nad olid idas näinud, juhtis neid, kuni peatus täpselt selle paiga kohal, kus laps oli.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.

10Kui nad nägid tähte, ei suutnud nad oma rõõmu tagasi hoida!When they saw the star, they rejoiced with great delight.

11Nad läksid majja ja nägid last koos tema ema Maarjaga. Nad põlvitasid ja kummardasid teda. Seejärel avasid nad oma aardekotid ning andsid talle kingiks kulda, viirukit ja mürri.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.

12Kui neid oli unenäos hoiatatud, et nad ei läheks Heroodese juurde tagasi, suundusid nad oma kodumaale teist teed mööda.And having been warned in a dream not to return to Herod, they withdrew to their country by another route.

13Pärast nende lahkumist ilmus Issanda ingel unes Joosepile ja ütles talle: „Tõuse üles, võta laps ja tema ema ning põgene Egiptusesse. Jää sinna, kuni ma sulle ütlen, sest Heroodes hakkab last otsima, et teda tappa.“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.”

14Nõnda tõusis Joosep üles, võttis poisi ja tema ema ning hakkas öösel Egiptuse poole minema.So he got up, took the Child and His mother by night, and withdrew to Egypt,

15Sinna jäid nad kuni Heroodese surmani. Nii täitus see, mida Issand oli prohveti kaudu öelnud: „Ma kutsusin oma poja Egiptusest.“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.”

16Kui Heroodes mõistis, et targad olid teda petnud, sai ta väga vihaseks. Ta saatis mehed tapma kõiki Petlemma ja ümberkaudsete piirkondade väikseid poisse, kes olid kaheaastased ja nooremad. See tugines ajavahemikule, mille ta oli tarkadelt teada saanud.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.

17Nii läks täide Jeremija prohvetikuulutus:Then what was spoken through the prophet Jeremiah was fulfilled:

18„Raamas kuuldakse kohutavat nutmist ja leinamist, Raahel nutab oma lapsi taga. Nad on surnud ja ta on lohutamatu.““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.”

19Pärast seda kui Heroodes suri, ilmus Issanda ingel unenäos Joosepile Egiptuses ja ütles talle:After Herod died, an angel of the Lord appeared in a dream to Joseph in Egypt.

20„Tõuse üles! Võta laps ja tema ema ning mine tagasi Iisraeli maale, sest need, kes üritasid last tappa, on surnud.““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.”

21Nõnda siis Joosep tõusis, võttis poisi ja tema ema ning läks tagasi Iisraeli maale.So Joseph got up, took the Child and His mother, and went to the land of Israel.

22Kuid Joosep kartis sinna tagasi minna, kui ta oli teada saanud, et Arhelaos oli oma isa Heroodese järel Juudamaa kuningaks saanud. Kui Joosep oli saanud unenäos hoiatuse, läks ta Galilea piirkondaBut 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,

23ja seadis end sisse Naatsaretis. Nii täitus see, mida prohvetid olid öelnud: „Teda nimetatakse naatsaretlaseks.“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.”
