1 Now Jesus having been born in Bethlehem of Judaea, in the days of Herod the king, behold magi from the east arrived at Jerusalem, saying,
2 Where is the king of the Jews that has been born? for we have seen his star in the east, and have come to do him homage.
3 But Herod the king having heard {of it}, was troubled, and all Jerusalem with him;
4 and, assembling all the chief priests and scribes of the people, he inquired of them where the Christ should be born.
5 And they said to him, In Bethlehem of Judaea; for thus it is written through the prophet:
6 And *thou* Bethlehem, land of Juda, art in no wise the least among the governors of Juda; for out of thee shall go forth a leader who shall shepherd my people Israel.
7 Then Herod, having secretly called the magi, inquired of them accurately the time of the star that was appearing;
8 and having sent them to Bethlehem, said, Go, search out accurately concerning the child, and when ye shall have found {him} bring me back word, so that *I* also may come and do him homage.
9 And they having heard the king went their way; and lo, the star, which they had seen in the east, went before them until it came and stood over the place where the little child was.
10 And when they saw the star they rejoiced with exceeding great joy.
11 And having come into the house they saw the little child with Mary his mother, and falling down did him homage. And having opened their treasures, they offered to him gifts, gold, and frankincense, and myrrh.
12 And being divinely instructed in a dream not to return to Herod, they departed into their own country another way.
13 Now, they having departed, behold, an angel of {the} Lord appears in a dream to Joseph, saying, Arise, take to {thee} the little child and his mother, and flee into Egypt, and be there until I shall tell thee; for Herod will seek the little child to destroy it.
14 And, having arisen, he took to {him} the little child and his mother by night, and departed into Egypt.
15 And he was there until the death of Herod, that that might be fulfilled which was spoken by {the} Lord through the prophet, saying, Out of Egypt have I called my son.
16 Then was fulfilled that which was spoken through Jeremias the prophet, saying,
18 A voice has been heard in Rama, weeping, and great lamentation: Rachel weeping {for} her children, and would not be comforted, because they are not.
19 But Herod having died, behold, an angel of {the} Lord appears in a dream to Joseph in Egypt, saying,
20 Arise, take to {thee} the little child and its mother, and go into the land of Israel: for they who sought the life of the little child are dead.
21 And he arose and took to {him} the little child and its mother, and came into the land of Israel;
22 but having heard that 'Archelaus reigns over Judaea, instead of Herod his father,' he was afraid to go there; and having been divinely instructed in a dream, he went away into the parts of Galilee,
23 and came and dwelt in a town called Nazareth; so that that should be fulfilled which was spoken through the prophets, He shall be called a Nazaraene.
1 Na, i te mea kua whanau nei a Ihu ki Peterehema o Huria, i nga ra o Kingi Herora, na, ka haere mai etahi Maki i te rawhiti ki Hiruharama,
2 Ka mea, Kei hea tenei kua whanau nei hei kingi mo nga Hurai? i kite hoki matou i tona whetu i te rawhiti, a ka tae mai nei ki te koropiko ki a ia.
3 A, no te rongonga o Kingi Herora, ka ohorere ratou ko Hiruharama katoa.
4 Na whakaminea katoatia ana e ia nga tohunga nui me nga karaipi o te iwi, a ka ui ki a ratou ki te wahi e whanau ai a te Karaiti.
5 Ka mea ratou ki a ia, Ki Peterehema o Huria: ko ta te poropiti hoki tenei i tuhituhi ai,
6 A ko koe, e Peterehema, whenua o Hura, ehara rawa i te iti rawa i roto i nga kawana o Hura: e puta mai hoki i a koe he kawana, hei hepara mo taku iwi, mo Iharaira.
7 Na, ka oti nga Maki te karanga puku e Herora, ka uia marietia ratou ki te wa i puta mai ai te whetu.
8 A unga ana ratou e ia ki Peterehema, i mea ia, Haere, rapua marietia te tamaiti; a, ka kitea, ka whakahoki mai i te korero ki ahau, kia haere ai hoki ahau ki te koropiko ki a ia.
9 Na, ka rongo ratou i ta te kingi, ka haere; na ko te whetu, i kite ai ratou i te rawhiti, e haere ana i mua i a ratou, a tae noa, tu noa ki runga ake i te takotoranga o te tamaiti.
10 A, i to ratou kitenga i te whetu, ko te tino haringa i hari ai.
11 A, ka tae ki roto ki te whare, ka kite i te tamaiti raua ko tona whaea, ko Meri, na tapapa ana ratou, koropiko ana ki a ia: a, no ka mawhera o ratou taonga, ka hoatu etahi mea ki a ia, he koura, he parakihe, he maira.
12 A i whakatupatoria ratou e te Atua, he mea moemoea, kia kaua e hoki ki a Herora; na haere ana ki to ratou kainga he ara ke.
13 A, ka riro atu ratou, na ka puta moemoea tetahi anahera a te Ariki ki a Hohepa, ka mea, E ara, tangohia te tamaiti raua ko tona whaea, e rere ki Ihipa, a hei reira koe kia korero ra ano ahau ki a koe: meake hoki rapu a Herora i te tamaiti kia wh akangaromia.
14 Na, ka ara ake ia, ka mau ki te tamaiti raua ko tona whaea i te po, a haere ana ki Ihipa:
15 A noho ana i reira, mate noa a Herora; na ka rite ta te Ariki i korerotia e te poropiti, i mea ai ia, He mea karanga naku taku tamaiti i Ihipa.
16 A, no te kitenga o Herora ka oti ia te tinihanga e nga Maki, rahi rawa tona riri, ka tono tangata, a patua iho nga tamariki katoa, nga mea e rua nei o ratou tau, me o muri iho, i Peterehema, i nga wahi katoa o reira, he mea whakarite ki te taima i uia marietia e ia ki nga Maki.
17 Katahi ka rite ta Heremaia poropiti i korero ai, i mea ai,
18 I rangona he reo ki Rama, he uhunga, he tangi, he aue nui, ko Rahera e tangi ana ki ana tamariki, a kihai i pai kia whakamarietia, no te mea kua kahore ratou.
19 A, no ka mate a Herora, na ka puta moemoea te anahera a te Ariki ki a Hohepa ki Ihipa,
20 Ka mea, Ara ake, tangohia te tamaiti raua ko tona whaea, a haere ki te whenua o Iharaira: kua mate hoki te hunga i whai kia patua te tamaiti.
21 A, ko tona aranga ake, ka mau ki te tamaiti raua ko tona whaea, ka haere ki te whenua o Iharaira.
22 Otira ka rongo ia ko Arakerauha te kingi o Huria i muri i tona matua, i a Herora, ka wehi ki te haere ki reira: otiia i whakamaharatia ia e te Atua, he mea moemoea, a haere ana ki nga wahi o Kariri;
23 A ka tae, a ka noho ki tetahi pa, ko Nahareta te ingoa; i rite ai ta nga poropiti i mea ai, Me hua ia he tangata no Nahareta.
