1Now when Jesus was born in Bethlehem of Judea in the days of King Herod, behold, wise men from the east came to Jerusalem, saying,
1A HANAUIA o Iesu ma Betelehema i Iudea, i ke kau ia Herode ke alii, aia hoi, kele mai la na magoi mai ka aina hikina mai a Ierusalema,
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.”
2I ka i ana mai, Ai la ihea ka mea i hanau iho nei i aliii no ka poe Iudaio? No ka mea, ua ike makou ma ka aina hikina i kona hoku, a ua hele mai nei makou e kukuli hoomaikai ia ia.
3When King Herod heard it, he was troubled, and all Jerusalem with him.
3A lohe ae la o Herode ke alii, apoapo ae la kona oili, oia a me ko Ierusalema a pau.
4Gathering together all the chief priests and scribes of the people, he asked them where the Christ would be born.
4Alaila, houluulu ae la ia i ka poe kahuna nui a me ka poe kakauolelo a na kanaka, ninau mai la oia ia lakou, Ai la ihea kahi e hanau ai o ka Mesia?
5They said to him, “In Bethlehem of Judea, for this is written through the prophet,
5Hai aku la lakou ia ia, Aia i Betelehema i Indea nei; no ka mea, ua palapalaia e ke kaula penei,
6‘You Bethlehem, land of Judah, are in no way least among the princes of Judah; for out of you shall come a governor who shall shepherd my people, Israel.’”
6O oe, e Betelehema, i ka aina o Iuda, aole no oe ka mea uuku loa iwaena o ko Iuda poe alii; no ka mea, mailoko mai ou e hele mai ana kekahi alii, nana e hoomalu i ko'u poe kanaka o ka Iseraela.
7Then Herod secretly called the wise men, and learned from them exactly what time the star appeared.
7Alaila, kii malu aku la o Herode i ua mau magoi la, ninau pono aku la ia lakou i maopopo ai ka manawa i ikea aku ai ua hoku la.
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.”
8Hoouna aku la oia ia lakou i Betelehema, i aku la, Ou haele oukou, e imi pono aku i ua keiki la; a loaa hoi, alaila e hai mai ia'u, i hele aku hoi au e kukuli hoomaikai ia ia.
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.
9A lohe ae la i ka ke alii, haele aku la lakou; aia hoi, ka hoku a lakou i ike ai ma ka aina hikina, lele e aku la ia imua o lakou, a hele aku la, a kau iho la maluna pono o kahi e noho ana o ua keiki la,
10When they saw the star, they rejoiced with exceedingly great joy.
10A ike aku lakou i ua hoku la, hauoli nui loa ae la lakou.
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.
11Komo lakou iloko o ka hale, a ike aku la i ua keiki la a me kona makuwahine o Maria, a moe iho la lakou, hoomaikai aku la ia ia; a wehe ae la lakou i ko lakou waihona waiwai, haawi aku la lakou nana i ke gula, a me ka libano, a me ka mura.
12Being warned in a dream not to return to Herod, they went back to their own country another way.
12A ma ka moeuhane, papaia mai lakou, aole e hoi bou aku io Herode la, a ma kekahi alanui e ae i hoi aku ai lakou i ko lakou aina.
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.”
13A hala aku la lakou, aia hoi, ikea aku la ka anela a ka Haku e Iosepa i ka moeuhane, i mai la, E ala, e lawe i ke keiki a me kona makuwahine, a holo aku i Aigupita; malaila e noho ai, a olelo hon aku au ia oe; no ka mea, e imi mai ana o Herode i ke keiki, e pepehi ia ia.
14He arose and took the young child and his mother by night and departed into Egypt,
14Ala ae la ia, lawe ae la i ke keiki a me kona makuwahine i ka po, a holo aku la i Aigupita;
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.”
15Malaila ia i noho ai a make o Herode. Nolaila, ko ae la ka olelo a ka Haku ma ke kaula, i ka i ana mai, Ua kahea aku au i ka'u keiki mai Aigupita mai.
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.
16Alaila, ike ae la o Herode, ua hoohokaia oia e ka poe magoi, ukiuki loa iho la ia, kena aku la ia, a luku aku la i na keikikane a pau o Betelehema, a o na wahi a puni e kokoke ana, i ka poe elua makahiki a hala ilalo, i ka manawa i ninau pono aku ai ia i ka poe magoi.
17Then that which was spoken by Jeremiah the prophet was fulfilled, saying,
17Alaila, ko ae la ka olelo a ke kaula a Ieretnia, i i mai ai,
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.”
18Ua lohea ka leo ma Rama, he pihe, he uwe ana, a me ke kanikau nui; e uwe ana o Rahela no kana mau keiki, aole loa ia e na, no ka mea, aole ae nei lakou.
19But when Herod was dead, behold, an angel of the Lord appeared in a dream to Joseph in Egypt, saying,
19A make o Herode, alaila ikea aku la kekahi anela a ka Haku e Iosepa ma ka moeuhane i Aigupita;
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.”
20I mai la, E ala oe e lawe i ke keiki a me kona makuwahine, a e hoi aku i ka aina o ka Iseraela; no ka mea, ua make ka poe i imi mai e pepehi i ua keiki nei.
21He arose and took the young child and his mother, and came into the land of Israel.
21Ala'e la ia, lawe ae la i ua keiki la, a me kona makuwahine, a hele aku la i ka aina o ka Iseraela.
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,
22Aka, lohe ae la ia, o Arekelau ke alii ma ludea i pani no ka hakahaka o kona makuakane o Herode, makau iho la ia i ka hele aku malaila: a aoia mai ai ma ka moeuhane, hoi aku ia i ka moku o Galilaia.
23and came and lived in a city called Nazareth; that it might be fulfilled which was spoken through the prophets that he will be called a Nazarene.
23A hiki aku la ia i kekahi kulanakauhale o Nazareta ka inoa, noho iho la ia ilaila: pela i ko ai ka olelo a ka poe kaula, E kapaia oia he Nazarene.
