¹Now when Jesus was born in Bethlehem of Judaea in the days of Herod the king, behold, there came wise men from the east to Jerusalem,

¹O Jesus arakhadilo ando Bethlehem ande Judea. Pe kodia vriama o Herod sas o amperato.

²Saying, Where is he that is born King of the Jews? for we have seen his star in the east, and are come to worship him.

²Antunchi le manush kai jinenas le chererhaia avile anda Easto, ai aresle ande Jerusalem. Ai phushle, "Kai kodo kai arakhadilo o Amperato le Zhidovongo? Ame dikhliam leski cherarhai ando Easto, ai aviliam te preznais ai te luvudis les."

³When Herod the king had heard these things, he was troubled, and all Jerusalem with him.

³Kana o amperato Herod ashundya pa kadia, darailo zurales, ai chi le manush kai sas ando Jerusalem lesa.

⁴And when he had gathered all the chief priests and scribes of the people together, he demanded of them where Christ should be born.

⁴Chidia andek than sa le bare rasha, ai le manush kai ramon o zakono, ai phushlia le, "Kai trobulas te arakhadilo o Kristo?" Won phende leske,

⁵And they said unto him, In Bethlehem of Judaea: for thus it is written by the prophet,

⁵"Ando Bethlehem ande Judea. Ke kadia si so ramosardia o profeto,

⁶And thou Bethlehem, in the land of Juda, art not the least among the princes of Juda: for out of thee shall come a Governor, that shall rule my people Israel.

⁶Ai tu Bethlehem, phuv anda Judea, chi san e mai tsigni andal gazdi andai Judea; ke tutar avela iek gazda kai avela o pastuxo murho narodoske Israel.'"

⁷Then Herod, when he had privily called the wise men, enquired of them diligently what time the star appeared.

⁷Porme o Herod chordanes akhardia le manushen kai jinenas le chererhaia, ai phushlia lendar e vorta vriama kai sikadili e chererhai.

⁸And he sent them to Bethlehem, and said, Go and search diligently for the young child; and when ye have found him, bring me word again, that I may come and worship him also.

⁸Wo tradia len ande Bethlehem ai phendia lenge, "Zhan ai roden mishto la glata; ai kana arakhena les, phenena i mange, te zhav vi me te preznaiv ai te luvudiv les."

⁹When they had heard the king, they departed; and, lo, the star, which they saw in the east, went before them, till it came and stood over where the young child was.

⁹Kana ashunde ka o amperato, geletar. Ai e chererhai kai dikhlesas ando Easto, zhalas anglal lende, zhi pon aresle po than kai sas e glata.

¹⁰When they saw the star, they rejoiced with exceeding great joy.

¹⁰Kana dikhle e chererhai, raduisaile zurales.

¹¹And when they were come into the house, they saw the young child with Mary his mother, and fell down, and worshipped him: and when they had opened their treasures, they presented unto him gifts; gold, and frankincense and myrrh.

¹¹Kana aresle ando kher, dikhle la glata peska dasa e Maria. Thode pe ande changende ai preznaisarde ai luvudisarde les, porme phuterde penge gone, ai dine les podarki: sumnakai, frankincense ai mirrh.

¹²And being warned of God in a dream that they should not return to Herod, they departed into their own country another way.

¹²O Del phendia lenge ando suno te na zhan palpale ka Herod; anda kodia gele pa kaver drom te zhan palpale ande pengo them.

¹³And when they were departed, behold, the angel of the Lord appeareth to Joseph in a dream, saying, Arise, and take the young child and his mother, and flee into Egypt, and be thou there until I bring thee word: for Herod will seek the young child to destroy him.

¹³Kana geletar le manush kai jinenas le chererhaia, iek angelo le Devlesko avisailo ka Josef ando suno, ai phendia leske, "Wushti opre, le la glata ai leska da, ai zhatar ande Egypt, besh kotse zhi kai phenava tuke te aves palpale, ke o Herod si te rodel la glata te mudarel les."

¹⁴When he arose, he took the young child and his mother by night, and departed into Egypt:

¹⁴O Josef wushtilo, lia la glata ai leska da, ai geletar e riate ande Egypt.

¹⁵And was there until the death of Herod: that it might be fulfilled which was spoken of the Lord by the prophet, saying, Out of Egypt have I called my son.

¹⁵Beshle kotse zhi kai mulo o Herod. Te kerdiol so phendiasas o Del katar o profeto. "Akhardem murhe Shaves avri andai Egypt."

¹⁶Then Herod, when he saw that he was mocked of the wise men, was exceeding wroth, and sent forth, and slew all the children that were in Bethlehem, and in all the coasts thereof, from two years old and under, according to the time which he had diligently enquired of the wise men.

¹⁶Kana o Herod haliardia ke le manush kai jinenas le chererhaia athade les, xolialo zurales. Ai tradia te mudaren sa le shavorhen kai sas ando Bethlehem ai vi avrial kai sas dui bershenge ai mai terne, pala e vriama kai sichilosas katar le manush kai jinen le chrerhaia.

¹⁷Then was fulfilled that which was spoken by Jeremy the prophet, saying,

¹⁷Antunchi pherdilo so phendiasas o profeto Jeremiah.

¹⁸In Rama was there a voice heard, lamentation, and weeping, and great mourning, Rachel weeping for her children, and would not be comforted, because they are not.

¹⁸"Iek glaso ashundilo ande Rama, roimos ai huhuimos. E Rachel rovelas peske shaven; ai chi manglias te pochin la, ke lake glate na mas.

¹⁹But when Herod was dead, behold, an angel of the Lord appeareth in a dream to Joseph in Egypt,

¹⁹Kana o Herod mulo, ek angelo le Devlesko avisailo ando suno ka Josef ande Egypt,

²⁰Saying, Arise, and take the young child and his mother, and go into the land of Israel: for they are dead which sought the young child's life.

²⁰ai phendia leske, "Wushti opre, le la glata ai leska da, ai zha palpale ande Israel, ke kodola kai rodenas te mudaren la glata mule."

²¹And he arose, and took the young child and his mother, and came into the land of Israel.

²¹O Josef wushtilo, lia la glata ai leska da ai gele ande Israel.

²²But when he heard that Archelaus did reign in Judaea in the room of his father Herod, he was afraid to go thither: notwithstanding, being warned of God in a dream, he turned aside into the parts of Galilee:

²²Numa kana ashundias ke o Archelaus ashilo amperato ande Juda ando than pesko dadesko o Herod, darailo te zhal kotse. Ai ke phendosas leske ando suno katar o Del gelo ande Galilee;

²³And he came and dwelt in a city called Nazareth: that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophets, He shall be called a Nazarene.

²³Gelo te beshel ando foro Nazareth, te pherdiol so sas phendo katar le profeturia,, ke si te akharen les Nazarene.
