1 Jesu abana kuleiwa mu mulenen̄i no Betelehema mu tolopo no Judeya, mu nako no mbumu Heloda. Ba nako eyo alume anjili no kushangama naku upa sebeli aiya mu Jelusalema.

2 Cwale sebeli aibanguta nji, “Kubine ali woyo ona leiwa ombumu no Majuda? Natu mono olutungweti lwaye aba lunapi ku upa, mi natwiyi nji tumu kubamene.” 3 Cwale mbumu Heloda aba ana kuyupa ngeeso, sebeli otina onene, bamweya naanu onje na mu Jelusalema. 4 Cwale sebeli oisana akulu no apulisita na iyeti no mulawo, sebeli waa ibanguta nji, “Kubine oko afanena oku leyelwa woyo Kilesite?”

5 Sebeli atambula nji, “Mu mulenen̄i no Betelehema mu Judeya,” kakuli yokame ina kun̄oliwa kwa munuhi wa Nyambe nji,

6 ‘Kono wene Betelehema mu naha ya Juda,

kame ukwite outokwa mukaci no titolopo ta Juda,

kakuli mukaci no tolopo yowe mbaku tundu omubusi

woyo so lisa aanu ange namu Isilaele.’

7 Cwale Heloda sebeli oisana alume no kushangama ku mukunda ni kwaibanguta enako luna kumonahala oweli olutungweti. 8 Mi sebeli waa tuma ku Betelehema nji, “Mute muka saisise wino woyo olukeke. Mi aba sa mumuwane munisimwete nji ni mene nite nika mukubamene.”

9 Cwale aba ana kuyupa oku tundelela kwa mbumu, sebeli akutela endila yoo, mi olutungweti olo ana kumono ku upa sebeli lwaa enda ku lubala konji aba luna kwimana ba sibaka aba ana kwikala olukeke. 10 Aba ana kumona olutungweti, sebeli awabelelwa onene. 11 Aba ana kwingena mu ndoo, sebeli amona olukeke ni inawaye Maliya, mi sebeli akubama banji ni kumulapela. Cwale sebeli ayatulula mu mikotana yoo ni kutundisamo etituwelo no Gauda, incense ni Mala. 12 Munyima no kulemusiwa kwa Nyambe mu tolo nji alese oku ukela kwa Heloda, sebeli auka ku litunga lyoo oukutusisa endila indina.

Okushotokela ku Engepita

13 Aba ana mana okuta ano kushangama, ababo elingeloi lya Mbumu sebeli limonahala kwa Josefa mu kulota. Mi sebeli lyamba nji, “Inguka! Olonde olukeke ni inawaye, oshotokele ku Egepita mi okaikalako konji abasa ni kwambele nji uuke kakuli Heloda mba saele olukeke nji alwibae.”

14 Josefa sebeli oinguka ni kulonda olukeke ni inawaye mu nako no usiku ni kushotokela ku Egepita. 15 Sebeli aka ikalakoko okubitela abo ana kufela Heloda. Eyi yonje nai kutendahala okwiyateteta eyo ina kwambiwa kwa Mbumu, kutundelela kwa munuhi wa Nyambe nji, “Inaisana mwanange no mulume, okutunda mu Egepita.”

Okwiibaiwa no Anukana

16 Cwale Heloda aba ana kulemuha nji ano kushangama na moongo, sebeli otina onene. Mi sebeli otuma aanu nji aibae anuke no andumana onje mu Betelehema mane sebeli aibaa naana no awo ana kwikalanga noo awo ana kukeela ba myaka yiili okutwala kunji, okukon̄elela omo ana kuyupela kwawo no kushangama enako luna kumonahala olutungweti.

17 Mu ndila eyi yakwiyateteta kale eyo ana kwamba omunuhi wa Nyambe Jelemiya nji,

18 “Esitumena sebeli siyupahala mu Lama,

okulila ni kutenda esililo sinene.

Lahele yo lilela anaye,

mi ni mukana okumu omba-omba,

kakuli anaye naafu.”

Okuuka Okutunda ku Egepita

19 Munyima no kufa kwa Heloda, ababo elingeloi lya Mbumu sebeli liku monahaza kwa Josefa ku tulo mu Egepita 20 ni kwamba nji, “Inguka, oshimbe omwana ni inawaye, muukele ku litunga no Isilaele, kakuli awo ana saelanga okwibaa olukeke naafi.” 21 Cwale sebeli oinguka, ni kushimba olukeke ni inawaye, ni kuukela ku litunga no Isilaele.

22 Kono Josefa aba ana kuyupa nji Akelausi nashwana sitaye Heloda okutenda ombumu no Judeya, sebeli ocila okutako. Mulibaka no kubiwa emamela ku tulo, sebeli ota mu sikiliti no Galileya. 23 Sebeli okayoya mu sibaka siisaniwa Nazaleta, abonji kwiyatetetwe eyo ana kwamba asikunuha a Nyambe nji, “Mbaisaniwa omunazaleta.”
