马太福音 2
Chinese Union Version, punctuated (Simplified)
Berean Standard Bible
1当 希律 王的时候，耶稣生在 犹太 的 伯利恒 。有几个博士从东方来到 耶路撒冷 ， 说 ：
1After Jesus was born in Bethlehem in Judea, during the time of King Herod, Magi from the east arrived in Jerusalem,
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。」
2asking, “Where is the One who has been born King of the Jews? We saw His star in the east and have come to worship Him.”
3希律 王听见了，就心里不安； 耶路撒冷 合城的人也都不安。
3When King Herod heard this, he was disturbed, and all Jerusalem with him.
4他就召齐了祭司长和民间的文士，问他们说：「基督当生在何处？」
4And when he had assembled all the chief priests and scribes of the people, he asked them where the Christ was to be born.
5他们回答说：「在 犹太 的 伯利恒 。因为有先知记着，说：
5“In Bethlehem in Judea,” they replied, “for this is what the prophet has written:
6犹大 地的 伯利恒 啊， 你在 犹大 诸城中并不是最小的； 因为将来有一位君王要从你那里出来， 牧养我 以色列 民。」
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 be the shepherd of My people Israel.’”
7当下， 希律 暗暗地召了博士来，细问那星是什么时候出现的，
7Then Herod called the Magi secretly and learned from them the exact time the star had appeared.
8就差他们往 伯利恒 去，说：「你们去仔细寻访那小孩子，寻到了就来报信，我也好去拜他。」
8And sending them to Bethlehem, he said: “Go and search carefully for the Child, and when you find Him, report to me, so that I too may go and worship Him.”
9他们听见王的话就去了。在东方所看见的那星忽然在他们前头行，直行到小孩子的地方，就在上头停住了。
9After they had heard the king, they went on their way, and the star they had seen in the east went ahead of them until it stood over the place where the Child was.
10他们看见那星，就大大地欢喜；
10When they saw the star, they rejoiced with great delight.
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，拿黄金、乳香、没药为礼物献给他。
11On coming to the house, they saw the Child with His mother Mary, and they fell down and worshiped Him. Then they opened their treasures and presented Him with gifts of gold and frankincense and myrrh.
12博士因为在梦中被 主 指示不要回去见 希律 ，就从别的路回本地去了。
12And having been warned in a dream not to return to Herod, they withdrew to their country by another route.
13他们去后，有主的使者向 约瑟 梦中显现，说：「起来！带着小孩子同他母亲逃往 埃及 ，住在那里，等我吩咐你；因为 希律 必寻找小孩子，要除灭他。」
13When the Magi had gone, an angel of the Lord appeared to Joseph in a dream. “Get up!” he said. “Take the Child and His mother and flee to Egypt. Stay there until I tell you, for Herod is going to search for the Child to kill Him.”
14约瑟 就起来，夜间带着小孩子和他母亲往 埃及 去，
14So he got up, took the Child and His mother by night, and withdrew to Egypt,
15住在那里，直到 希律 死了。这是要应验主借先知所说的话，说：「我从 埃及 召出我的儿子来。」
15where he stayed until the death of Herod. This fulfilled what the Lord had spoken through the prophet: “Out of Egypt I called My Son.”
16希律 见自己被博士愚弄，就大大发怒，差人将 伯利恒 城里并四境所有的男孩，照着他向博士仔细查问的时候，凡两岁以里的，都杀尽了。
16When Herod saw that he had been outwitted by the Magi, he was filled with rage. Sending orders, he put to death all the boys in Bethlehem and its vicinity who were two years old and under, according to the time he had learned from the Magi.
17这就应了先知 耶利米 的话，说：
17Then what was spoken through the prophet Jeremiah was fulfilled:
18在 拉玛 听见号咷大哭的声音， 是 拉结 哭她儿女， 不肯受安慰， 因为他们都不在了。
18“A voice is heard in Ramah, weeping and great mourning, Rachel weeping for her children, and refusing to be comforted, because they are no more.”
19希律 死了以后，有主的使者在 埃及 向 约瑟 梦中显现，说：
19After Herod died, an angel of the Lord appeared in a dream to Joseph in Egypt.
20「起来！带着小孩子和他母亲往 以色列 地去，因为要害小孩子性命的人已经死了。」
20“Get up!” he said. “Take the Child and His mother and go to the land of Israel, for those seeking the Child’s life are now dead.”
21约瑟 就起来，把小孩子和他母亲带到 以色列 地去；
21So Joseph got up, took the Child and His mother, and went to the land of Israel.
22只因听见 亚基老 接着他父亲 希律 作了 犹太 王，就怕往那里去，又在梦中被 主 指示，便往 加利利 境内去了，
22But when he learned that Archelaus was reigning in Judea in place of his father Herod, he was afraid to go there. And having been warned in a dream, he withdrew to the district of Galilee,
23到了一座城，名叫 拿撒勒 ，就住在那里。这是要应验先知所说，他将称为 拿撒勒 人的话了。
23and he went and lived in a town called Nazareth. So was fulfilled what was spoken through the prophets: “He will be called a Nazarene.”
