¹Now when Jesus was born in Bethlehem of Judea in the days of King Herod, behold, wise men The word for “wise men” (magoi) can also mean teachers, scientists, physicians, astrologers, seers, interpreters of dreams, or sorcerers. from the east came to Jerusalem, saying,

¹Goortii Ciise ku dhashay Beytlaxamtii Yahuudiya, waagii Herodos boqorkii ahaa, waxaa Yeruusaalem bari kaga yimid niman xigmad leh iyagoo leh,

²“Where is he who is born King of the Jews? For we saw his star in the east, and have come to worship him.”

²Xaggee buu joogaa boqorka Yuhuudda ee dhashay? Waayo, bari ayaannu xiddigtiisii ka aragnay, oo waxaannu u nimid inaannu caabudno.

³When King Herod heard it, he was troubled, and all Jerusalem with him.

³Goortuu boqor Herodos waxan maqlay, ayuu welwelay, isaga iyo reer Yeruusaalem oo dhan.

⁴Gathering together all the chief priests and scribes of the people, he asked them where the Christ would be born.

⁴Oo intuu isu ururiyey wadaaddadii sare iyo culimmadii dadka oo dhan, ayuu weyddiiyey meeshii Masiixu ku dhalan lahaa.

⁵They said to him, “In Bethlehem of Judea, for this is written through the prophet,

⁵Oo waxay ku yidhaahdeen, Beytlaxamtii Yahuudiya, waayo, sidaasaa nebigii u qoray,

⁶‘You Bethlehem, land of Judah, are in no way least among the princes of Judah: for out of you shall come forth a governor, who shall shepherd my people, Israel.’” Micah 5:2

⁶Adigu Beytlaxam, oo dhulka Yahuudah ahay, Kuma aad yaridba caaqillada Yahuudah dhexdooda, Waayo, waxaa adiga kaa soo bixi doona taliye, Kan dadkayga Israa'iil u talin doona.

⁷Then Herod secretly called the wise men, and learned from them exactly what time the star appeared.

⁷Markaasuu Herodos nimankii xigmadda lahaa hoos ahaan ugu yeedhay, oo ka hubsaday goortay xiddigtu u muuqatay.

⁸He sent them to Bethlehem, and said, “Go and search diligently for the young child. When you have found him, bring me word, so that I also may come and worship him.”

⁸Kolkaasuu Beytlaxam cid u diray oo ku yidhi, Taga oo ilmaha aad u doondoona, oo goortaad heshaan i soo ogeysiiya si aan anna ugu tago oo u caabudo.

⁹They, having heard the king, went their way; and behold, the star, which they saw in the east, went before them, until it came and stood over where the young child was.

⁹Goortay boqorkii maqleen ayay tageen, oo xiddigtii ay bari ka arkeen ayaa hor kacday ilaa ay timid oo ay kor joogsatay meeshii ilmuhu joogay,

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

¹⁰oo goortay xiddigtii arkeen ayay farxad aad u weyn ku farxeen.

¹¹They came into the house and saw the young child with Mary, his mother, and they fell down and worshiped him. Opening their treasures, they offered to him gifts: gold, frankincense, and myrrh.

¹¹Markaasay gurigii galeen oo waxay arkeen ilmihii iyo Maryan hooyadiis, wayna dhaceen oo caabudeen isaga, oo intay khasnadahoodii fureen waxay isaga u dhiibeen hadiyado dahab iyo beeyo iyo malmal ah.

¹²Being warned in a dream that they shouldn’t return to Herod, they went back to their own country another way.

¹²Markaasaa riyo loogu digay inaanay Herodos ku noqon, oo dhulkoodii ayay jid kale u mareen.

¹³Now when they had departed, behold, an angel of the Lord appeared to Joseph in a dream, saying, “Arise and take the young child and his mother, and flee into Egypt, and stay there until I tell you, for Herod will seek the young child to destroy him.”

¹³Goortay ka tageen, malaa'igtii Rabbiga ayaa Yuusuf riyo ugu muuqatay, iyadoo leh, Kac oo kaxee ilmaha iyo hooyadiis, oo Masar u carar oo halkaas joog ilaa aan kuu soo sheego, waayo, Herodos ayaa ilmaha dooni doona inuu dilo.

¹⁴He arose and took the young child and his mother by night, and departed into Egypt,

¹⁴Wakhti habeen ah ayuu kacay, oo ilmihii iyo hooyadiis kaxeeyey, oo Masar tegey,

¹⁵and was there until the death of Herod; that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the Lord through the prophet, saying, “Out of Egypt I called my son.” Hosea 11:1

¹⁵oo halkaasuu joogay ilaa dhimashadii Herodos, inay noqoto wixii Rabbigu kaga dhex hadlay nebiga, isagoo leh, Wiilkayga ayaan Masar uga yeedhay.

¹⁶Then Herod, when he saw that he was mocked by the wise men, was exceedingly angry, and sent out, and killed all the male children who were in Bethlehem and in all the surrounding countryside, from two years old and under, according to the exact time which he had learned from the wise men.

¹⁶Goortuu Herodos arkay inay nimankii xigmadda lahaa ku cayaareen isagii, ayuu aad u cadhooday, oo cid buu u diray oo laayay wiilashii yaryaraa oo dhan, kuwii laba sannadood jiray iyo kuwii ka yaraa oo joogay Beytlaxam iyo meelaha u dhow oo dhan, sida wakhtigii uu nimankii xigmadda lahaa ka hubsaday.

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

¹⁷Markaas waxaa noqotay wixii nebi Yeremyaah lagaga dhex hadlay, isagoo leh,

¹⁸“A voice was heard in Ramah, lamentation, weeping and great mourning, Rachel weeping for her children; she wouldn’t be comforted, because they are no more.” Jeremiah 31:15

¹⁸Cod baa Raamaah laga maqlay, Oohin iyo baroor weyn, Raaxeel oo u ooyaysa carruurteeda, Oo aan doonaynin in la qalbi qabowjiyo, waayo, ma ay joogin.

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

¹⁹Laakiin goortuu Herodos dhintay, malaa'igtii Rabbiga ayaa riyo ugu muuqatay Yuusuf oo Masar jooga, iyadoo leh,

²⁰“Arise and take the young child and his mother, and go into the land of Israel, for those who sought the young child’s life are dead.”

²⁰Kac oo kaxee ilmaha iyo hooyadiis, oo dhulka Israa'iil tag, waayo, kuwii ilmaha naftiisa doonayay waa dhinteen.

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

²¹Markaasuu kacay oo kaxeeyey ilmihii iyo hooyadiis, oo dalkii Israa'iil tegey.

²²But when he heard that Archelaus was reigning over Judea in the place of his father, Herod, he was afraid to go there. Being warned in a dream, he withdrew into the region of Galilee,

²²Laakiin goortuu maqlay in Arkhela'os meeshii aabbihiis Herodos Yahuudiya xukumayo, wuu ka baqay inuu halkaas tago. Markaase Ilaah baa riyo ugu digay, oo uu dhinacyada Galili ku leexday.Wuxuuna yimid oo degay magaalada Naasared la odhan jiray si ay u noqoto wixii nebiyada lagaga hadlay, Waxaa loogu yeedhayaa Naasaraani.

²³and came and lived in a city called Nazareth; that it might be fulfilled which was spoken through the prophets: “He will be called a Nazarene.”

²³Wuxuuna yimid oo degay magaalada Naasared la odhan jiray si ay u noqoto wixii nebiyada lagaga hadlay, Waxaa loogu yeedhayaa Naasaraani.
