马太福音 2
Revised Chinese Union Version (Simplified Script) Shen Edition
博学之士朝拜
2 在希律作王的时候,耶稣生在犹太的伯利恒。有几个博学之士[a]从东方来到耶路撒冷,说: 2 “那生下来作犹太人之王的在哪里?我们在东方看见他的星,特来拜他。” 3 希律王听见了,就心里不安;耶路撒冷全城的人也都不安。 4 他就召集了祭司长和民间的文士,问他们:“基督该生在哪里?” 5 他们说:“在犹太的伯利恒。因为有先知记着:
6 ‘犹大地的伯利恒啊,
你在犹大诸城中并不是最小的;
因为将来有一位统治者要从你那里出来,
牧养我以色列民。’”
7 于是,希律暗地里召了博学之士来,查问那星是什么时候出现的, 8 就派他们往伯利恒去,说:“你们去仔细寻访那小孩子,找到了就来报信,我也好去拜他。” 9 他们听了王的话就去了。忽然,在东方所看到的那颗星在前面引领他们,一直行到小孩子所在地方的上方就停住了。 10 他们看见那星,就非常欢喜; 11 进了房子,看见小孩子和他母亲马利亚,就俯伏拜那小孩子,揭开宝盒,拿出黄金、乳香、没药,作为礼物献给他。 12 因为在梦中得到主的指示,不要回去见希律,他们就从别的路回自己的家乡去了。
逃往埃及
13 他们走后,忽然主的使者在约瑟梦中向他显现,说:“起来!带着小孩子和他母亲逃往埃及,住在那里,等我的指示;因为希律要搜寻那小孩子来杀害他。” 14 约瑟就起来,连夜带着小孩子和他母亲往埃及去, 15 住在那里,直到希律死了。这是要应验主藉先知所说的话:“我从埃及召我的儿子出来。”
屠杀男孩
16 希律见自己被博学之士愚弄,极其愤怒,差人将伯利恒城里和四境所有的男孩,根据他向博学之士仔细查问到的时间,凡两岁以内的,都杀尽了。 17 这就应验了耶利米先知所说的话:
18 “在拉玛听见号啕大哭的声音,
是拉结哭她儿女;
她不肯受安慰,
因为他们都不在了。”
从埃及回来
19 希律死了以后,在埃及,忽然主的使者在约瑟梦中向他显现, 20 说:“起来,带着小孩子和他母亲回以色列地去!因为要杀害这小孩子的人已经死了。” 21 约瑟就起来,带着小孩子和他母亲进入以色列地去。 22 但是他因听见亚基老继承他父亲希律作了犹太王,怕到那里去;又在梦中得到主的指示,就往加利利境内去了。 23 他们到了一座城,名叫拿撒勒,就住在那里。这是要应验先知所说的话:“他将称为拿撒勒人。”

Kubanga twalaba emmunyeenye ye nga tuli mu buvanjuba, era tuzze okumusinza.”
3 Awo Kabaka Kerode bwe yabiwulira ne bimweraliikiriza nnyo, era ne bonna abaali mu Yerusaalemi. 4 N’ayita bakabona abakulu bonna n’abawandiisi b’amateeka n’abeebuuzaako ekifo Kristo gye yali agenda okuzaalibwa. 5 (C)Ne bamuddamu nti, “Mu Besirekemu eky’omu Buyudaaya, kyawandiikibwa nnabbi nti,
6 (D)“ ‘Naawe Besirekemu ekya Yuda,
toli mutono mu balangira ba Yuda,
kubanga omufuzi aliva mu ggwe,
alifuga abantu bange Isirayiri.’ ”
7 Awo Kerode n’atumya Abagezigezi kyama, n’ababuuza ebiro emmunyeenye bye yalabikiramu. 8 N’abasindika e Besirekemu ng’agamba nti, “Mugende mubuulirize ebikwata ku mwana. Bwe mumulaba, mukomeewo muntegeeze, nange ŋŋende musinze!”
9 Bwe baamala okuwulira Kabaka bye yabagamba ne bagenda. Bwe baafuluma, emmunyeenye eri gye baalaba ebuvanjuba n’eddamu okubalabikira n’okubakulembera, okutuusa lwe yayimirira waggulu Omwana w’ali. 10 Bwe baalaba emmunyeenye ng’eyimiridde, essanyu lyabwe ne libeera lingi nnyo! 11 (E)Bwe baayingira mu nnyumba[a] ne balaba Omwana ne Maliyamu nnyina ne bavuunama ne basinza Omwana. Ne basumulula ensawo zaabwe, ne bamutonera ebirabo, zaabu, n’obubaane n’omugavu. 12 (F)Awo bwe baalabulibwa mu kirooto baleme kuddayo wa Kerode, bwe batyo ne baddayo ewaabwe nga bayita mu kkubo eddala.

13 (G)Awo abagezigezi bwe baamala okugenda, malayika wa Mukama n’alabikira Yusufu mu kirooto n’amugamba nti, “Golokoka oddusize Omwana ne nnyina e Misiri, mubeere eyo okutuusa lwe ndibalagira okudda. Kubanga Kerode ajja kunoonya Omwana ng’ayagala okumutta.” 14 Ekiro ekyo n’asituka n’atwala Omwana ne nnyina e Misiri. 15 (H)Ne babeera eyo okutuusa Kerode bwe yafa. Mukama kye yayogerera mu nnabbi we ne kituukirira, bwe yagamba nti:
“Nayita Omwana wange okuva mu Misiri.”
Okutta Abaana Abato
16 Kerode bwe yalaba ng’Abagezigezi banyoomye ekiragiro kye, n’asunguwala nnyo, n’atuma abaserikale e Besirekemu ne mu byalo byakyo batte abaana bonna aboobulenzi ab’emyaka ebiri n’abatannagiweza, ng’asinziira ku bbanga abagezigezi lye baali bamutegeezeza mwe baalabira emmunyeenye. 17 Awo ekigambo nnabbi Yeremiya kye yayogera ne kiryoka kituukirira ng’agamba nti,
18 (I)“Eddoboozi lyawulirwa mu Laama,
okukuba emiranga n’okukungubaga okunene,
nga Laakeeri akaabira abaana be,
nga tewakyali asobola kumuwooyawooya,
kubanga bonna baweddewo.”
Okuva e Misiri Okudda e Nazaaleesi
19 (J)Kerode bwe yamala okufa malayika wa Mukama n’alabikira Yusufu mu kirooto e Misiri, 20 n’amugamba nti, “Golokoka ozzeeyo Omwana ne nnyina mu Isirayiri, kubanga abaali baagala okutta Omwana bafudde.”
21 Yusufu n’asitukiramu n’azzaayo Omwana ne nnyina mu nsi ya Isirayiri. 22 (K)Naye bwe yatuuka mu kkubo n’atya nnyo bwe yawulira nga Alukerawo[b] mutabani wa Kerode ye yali alidde obwakabaka. Mukama n’amulabulira nate mu kirooto aleme kugenda Buyudaaya, bw’atyo n’alaga e Ggaliraaya 23 (L)n’atuuka mu kibuga ky’e Nazaaleesi, ne babeera omwo.

Coming of the magi
2 After Jesus was born in Bethlehem in the territory of Judea during the rule of King Herod, magi came from the east to Jerusalem. 2 They asked, “Where is the newborn king of the Jews? We’ve seen his star in the east, and we’ve come to honor him.”
3 When King Herod heard this, he was troubled, and everyone in Jerusalem was troubled with him. 4 He gathered all the chief priests and the legal experts and asked them where the Christ was to be born. 5 They said, “In Bethlehem of Judea, for this is what the prophet wrote:
6 You, Bethlehem, land of Judah,
by no means are you least among the rulers of Judah,
because from you will come one who governs,
who will shepherd my people Israel.”[a]
7 Then Herod secretly called for the magi and found out from them the time when the star had first appeared. 8 He sent them to Bethlehem, saying, “Go and search carefully for the child. When you’ve found him, report to me so that I too may go and honor him.” 9 When they heard the king, they went; and look, the star they had seen in the east went ahead of them until it stood over the place where the child was. 10 When they saw the star, they were filled with joy. 11 They entered the house and saw the child with Mary his mother. Falling to their knees, they honored him. Then they opened their treasure chests and presented him with gifts of gold, frankincense, and myrrh. 12 Because they were warned in a dream not to return to Herod, they went back to their own country by another route.
Escape to Egypt
13 When the magi had departed, an angel from the Lord appeared to Joseph in a dream and said, “Get up. Take the child and his mother and escape to Egypt. Stay there until I tell you, for Herod will soon search for the child in order to kill him.” 14 Joseph got up and, during the night, took the child and his mother to Egypt. 15 He stayed there until Herod died. This fulfilled what the Lord had spoken through the prophet: I have called my son out of Egypt.[b]
Murder of the Bethlehem children
16 When Herod knew the magi had fooled him, he grew very angry. He sent soldiers to kill all the children in Bethlehem and in all the surrounding territory who were two years old and younger, according to the time that he had learned from the magi. 17 This fulfilled the word spoken through Jeremiah the prophet:
18 A voice was heard in Ramah,
weeping and much grieving.
Rachel weeping for her children,
and she did not want to be comforted,
because they were no more.[c]
Return from Egypt
19 After King Herod died, an angel from the Lord appeared in a dream to Joseph in Egypt. 20 “Get up,” the angel said, “and take the child and his mother and go to the land of Israel. Those who were trying to kill the child are dead.” 21 Joseph got up, took the child and his mother, and went to the land of Israel. 22 But when he heard that Archelaus ruled over Judea in place of his father Herod, Joseph was afraid to go there. Having been warned in a dream, he went to the area of Galilee. 23 He settled in a city called Nazareth so that what was spoken through the prophets might be fulfilled: He will be called a Nazarene.
Matthew 2
New International Version
The Magi Visit the Messiah
2 After Jesus was born in Bethlehem in Judea,(A) during the time of King Herod,(B) Magi[a] from the east came to Jerusalem 2 and asked, “Where is the one who has been born king of the Jews?(C) We saw his star(D) when it rose and have come to worship him.”
3 When King Herod heard this he was disturbed, and all Jerusalem with him. 4 When he had called together all the people’s chief priests and teachers of the law, he asked them where the Messiah was to be born. 5 “In Bethlehem(E) in Judea,” they replied, “for this is what the prophet has written:
6 “‘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 shepherd my people Israel.’[b]”(F)
7 Then Herod called the Magi secretly and found out from them the exact time the star had appeared. 8 He sent them to Bethlehem and said, “Go and search carefully for the child. As soon as you find him, report to me, so that I too may go and worship him.”
9 After they had heard the king, they went on their way, and the star they had seen when it rose went ahead of them until it stopped over the place where the child was. 10 When they saw the star, they were overjoyed. 11 On coming to the house, they saw the child with his mother Mary, and they bowed down and worshiped him.(G) Then they opened their treasures and presented him with gifts(H) of gold, frankincense and myrrh. 12 And having been warned(I) in a dream(J) not to go back to Herod, they returned to their country by another route.
The Escape to Egypt
13 When they had gone, an angel(K) of the Lord appeared to Joseph in a dream.(L) “Get up,” he said, “take the child and his mother and escape to Egypt. Stay there until I tell you, for Herod is going to search for the child to kill him.”(M)
14 So he got up, took the child and his mother during the night and left for Egypt, 15 where he stayed until the death of Herod. And so was fulfilled(N) what the Lord had said through the prophet: “Out of Egypt I called my son.”[c](O)
16 When Herod realized that he had been outwitted by the Magi, he was furious, and he gave orders to kill all the boys in Bethlehem and its vicinity who were two years old and under, in accordance with the time he had learned from the Magi. 17 Then what was said through the prophet Jeremiah was fulfilled:(P)
18 “A voice is heard in Ramah,
weeping and great mourning,
Rachel(Q) weeping for her children
and refusing to be comforted,
because they are no more.”[d](R)
The Return to Nazareth
19 After Herod died, an angel(S) of the Lord appeared in a dream(T) to Joseph in Egypt 20 and said, “Get up, take the child and his mother and go to the land of Israel, for those who were trying to take the child’s life are dead.”(U)
21 So he got up, took the child and his mother and went to the land of Israel. 22 But when he heard that Archelaus was reigning in Judea in place of his father Herod, he was afraid to go there. Having been warned in a dream,(V) he withdrew to the district of Galilee,(W) 23 and he went and lived in a town called Nazareth.(X) So was fulfilled(Y) what was said through the prophets, that he would be called a Nazarene.(Z)
