Riveduta 1927Berean Standard Bible

1. 1RIVOr essendo Gesù nato in Betleem di Giudea, ai dì del re Erode, ecco dei magi d’Oriente arrivarono in Gerusalemme, dicendo:BSBBSB: After Jesus was born in Bethlehem in Judea, during the time of King Herod, Magi from the east arrived in Jerusalem,
2. 2RIVDov’è il re de’ Giudei che è nato? Poiché noi abbiam veduto la sua stella in Oriente e siam venuti per adorarlo.BSBBSB: 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.”
3. 3RIVUdito questo, il re Erode fu turbato, e tutta Gerusalemme con lui.BSBBSB: When King Herod heard this, he was disturbed, and all Jerusalem with him.
4. 4RIVE radunati tutti i capi sacerdoti e gli scribi del popolo, s’informò da loro dove il Cristo dovea nascere.BSBBSB: 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. 5RIVEd essi gli dissero: In Betleem di Giudea; poiché così è scritto per mezzo del profeta:BSBBSB: “In Bethlehem in Judea,” they replied, “for this is what the prophet has written:
6. 6RIVE tu, Betleem, terra di Giuda, non sei punto la minima fra le città principali di Giuda; perché da te uscirà un Principe, che pascerà il mio popolo Israele.BSBBSB: ‘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.’”
7. 7RIVAllora Erode, chiamati di nascosto i magi, s’informò esattamente da loro del tempo in cui la stella era apparita;BSBBSB: Then Herod called the Magi secretly and learned from them the exact time the star had appeared.
8. 8RIVe mandandoli a Betleem, disse loro: Andate e domandate diligentemente del fanciullino; e quando lo avrete trovato, fatemelo sapere, affinché io pure venga ad adorarlo.BSBBSB: 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.”
9. 9RIVEssi dunque, udito il re, partirono; ed ecco la stella che aveano veduta in Oriente, andava dinanzi a loro, finché, giunta al luogo dov’era il fanciullino, vi si fermò sopra.BSBBSB: 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.
10. 10RIVEd essi, veduta la stella, si rallegrarono di grandissima allegrezza.BSBBSB: When they saw the star, they rejoiced with great delight.
11. 11RIVEd entrati nella casa, videro il fanciullino con Maria sua madre; e prostratisi, lo adorarono; ed aperti i loro tesori, gli offrirono dei doni: oro, incenso e mirra.BSBBSB: 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.
12. 12RIVPoi, essendo stati divinamente avvertiti in sogno di non ripassare da Erode, per altra via tornarono al loro paese.BSBBSB: And having been warned in a dream not to return to Herod, they withdrew to their country by another route.
13. 13RIVPartiti che furono, ecco un angelo del Signore apparve in sogno a Giuseppe e gli disse: Lèvati, prendi il fanciullino e sua madre, e fuggi in Egitto, e sta’ quivi finch’io non tel dica; perché Erode cercherà il fanciullino per farlo morire.BSBBSB: 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.”
14. 14RIVEgli dunque, levatosi, prese di notte il fanciullino e sua madre, e si ritirò in Egitto;BSBBSB: So he got up, took the Child and His mother by night, and withdrew to Egypt,
15. 15RIVed ivi stette fino alla morte di Erode, affinché si adempiesse quello che fu detto dal Signore per mezzo del profeta: Fuor d’Egitto chiamai il mio figliuolo.BSBBSB: 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.”
16. 16RIVAllora Erode, vedutosi beffato dai magi, si adirò gravemente, e mandò ad uccidere tutti i maschi ch’erano in Betleem e in tutto il suo territorio dall’età di due anni in giù, secondo il tempo del quale s’era esattamente informato dai magi.BSBBSB: 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.
17. 17RIVAllora si adempié quello che fu detto per bocca del profeta Geremia:BSBBSB: Then what was spoken through the prophet Jeremiah was fulfilled:
18. 18RIVUn grido è stato udito in Rama; un pianto ed un lamento grande: Rachele piange i suoi figliuoli e ricusa d’esser consolata, perché non sono più.BSBBSB: “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.”
19. 19RIVMa dopo che Erode fu morto, ecco un angelo del Signore apparve in sogno a Giuseppe in Egitto, e gli disse:BSBBSB: After Herod died, an angel of the Lord appeared in a dream to Joseph in Egypt.
20. 20RIVLèvati, prendi il fanciullino e sua madre, e vattene nel paese d’Israele; perché son morti coloro che cercavano la vita del fanciullino.BSBBSB: “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.”
21. 21RIVEd egli, levatosi, prese il fanciullino e sua madre ed entrò nel paese d’Israele.BSBBSB: So Joseph got up, took the Child and His mother, and went to the land of Israel.
22. 22RIVMa udito che in Giudea regnava Archelao invece d’Erode, suo padre, temette d’andar colà; ed essendo stato divinamente avvertito in sogno, si ritirò nelle parti della Galilea,BSBBSB: But 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,
23. 23RIVe venne ad abitare in una città detta Nazaret, affinché si adempiesse quello ch’era stato detto dai profeti, ch’egli sarebbe chiamato Nazareno.BSBBSB: 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.”
