1. 1SWH1850Yesu alizaliwa mjini Bethlehemu, mkoani Yudea, wakati Herode alipokuwa mfalme. Punde tu baada ya kuzaliwa kwake, wataalamu wa nyota kutoka mashariki walifika Yerusalemu,BSBBSB: After Jesus was born in Bethlehem in Judea, during the time of King Herod, Magi from the east arrived in Jerusalem,
2. 2SWH1850wakauliza, “Yuko wapi mtoto, Mfalme wa Wayahudi, aliyezaliwa? Tumeiona nyota yake ilipotokea mashariki, tukaja kumwabudu.”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. 3SWH1850Mfalme Herode aliposikia hayo, alifadhaika, yeye pamoja na wakazi wote wa Yerusalemu.BSBBSB: When King Herod heard this, he was disturbed, and all Jerusalem with him.
4. 4SWH1850Basi akawaita pamoja makuhani wakuu wote na walimu wa Sheria, akawauliza, “Kristo atazaliwa wapi?”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. 5SWH1850Nao wakamjibu, “Mjini Bethlehemu, mkoani Yudea. Ndivyo nabii alivyoandika:BSBBSB: “In Bethlehem in Judea,” they replied, “for this is what the prophet has written:
6. 6SWH1850Ewe Bethlehemu katika nchi ya Yuda, kwa vyovyote wewe si mdogo kabisa kati ya viongozi wa Yuda; maana kwako atatokea kiongozi atakayewaongoza watu wangu, Israeli.”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. 7SWH1850Hapo, Herode aliwaita faraghani hao wataalamu wa nyota, akawauliza wakati hasa ile nyota ilipowatokea.BSBBSB: Then Herod called the Magi secretly and learned from them the exact time the star had appeared.
8. 8SWH1850Kisha akawatuma Bethlehemu akisema, “Nendeni mkachunguze kwa makini habari za mtoto huyo. Mkisha mpata nileteeni habari ili nami niende nikamwabudu.”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. 9SWH1850Baada ya kumsikiliza mfalme, hao wataalamu wa nyota wakaenda. Kumbe ile nyota waliyokuwa wameiona upande wa mashariki iliwatangulia hata ikaenda kusimama juu ya mahali pale alipokuwa mtoto.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. 10SWH1850Walipoiona hiyo nyota, walifurahi mno.BSBBSB: When they saw the star, they rejoiced with great delight.
11. 11SWH1850Basi, wakaingia nyumbani, wakamwona yule mtoto pamoja na Maria mama yake; wakapiga magoti, wakamsujudia. Kisha wakafungua hazina zao, wakampa zawadi: dhahabu, ubani na manemane.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. 12SWH1850Mungu aliwaonya katika ndoto wasimrudie Herode; hivyo wakarudi makwao kwa njia nyingine.BSBBSB: And having been warned in a dream not to return to Herod, they withdrew to their country by another route.
13. 13SWH1850Baada ya wale wageni kuondoka, malaika wa Bwana alimtokea Yosefu katika ndoto, akamwambia, “Amka! Mchukue mtoto pamoja na mama yake, mkimbilie Misri. Kaeni huko mpaka nitakapokwambia, maana Herode anakusudia kumwua huyu mtoto.”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. 14SWH1850Hivyo, Yosefu aliamka, akamchukua mtoto pamoja na mama yake, akaondoka usiku, akaenda Misri.BSBBSB: So he got up, took the Child and His mother by night, and withdrew to Egypt,
15. 15SWH1850Akakaa huko mpaka Herode alipokufa. Jambo hilo lilifanyika ili neno alilosema Bwana kwa njia ya nabii litimie: “Nilimwita Mwanangu kutoka Misri.”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. 16SWH1850Herode alipogundua kwamba wale wataalamu wa nyota walikuwa wamemhadaa, alikasirika sana. Akaamuru watoto wote wa kiume mjini Bethlehemu na kandokando yake wenye umri wa miaka miwili na chini yake wauawe. Alifanya hivyo kufuatana na muda aliopata kujua kutoka kwa wale wataalamu wa nyota.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. 17SWH1850Ndivyo yalivyotimia maneno yaliyosemwa kwa njia ya nabii Yeremia:BSBBSB: Then what was spoken through the prophet Jeremiah was fulfilled:
18. 18SWH1850“Sauti imesikika mjini Rama, kilio na maombolezo mengi. Raheli anawalilia watoto wake, wala hataki kutulizwa, maana wote wamefariki.”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. 19SWH1850Baada ya kifo cha Herode, malaika wa Bwana alimtokea Yosefu katika ndoto kule Misri,BSBBSB: After Herod died, an angel of the Lord appeared in a dream to Joseph in Egypt.
20. 20SWH1850akamwambia, “Amka! Mchukue mtoto pamoja na mama yake, urudi tena katika nchi ya Israeli, maana wale waliotaka kumwua mtoto huyo wamekwisha kufa.”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. 21SWH1850Basi, Yosefu aliamka, akamchukua mtoto pamoja na mama yake, akarejea katika nchi ya Israeli.BSBBSB: So Joseph got up, took the Child and His mother, and went to the land of Israel.
22. 22SWH1850Lakini Yosefu aliposikia kwamba Arkelao mwanawe Herode alikuwa mfalme wa Yudea mahali pa baba yake, aliogopa kwenda huko. Naye baada ya kuonywa katika ndoto, alikwenda katika mkoa wa Galilaya,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. 23SWH1850akahamia katika mji uitwao Nazareti. Ndivyo yalivyotimia maneno yaliyonenwa kwa njia ya manabii: “Ataitwa Mnazare.”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.”
