Mathayo 2: 13-15, 19-23

2:13 Na baada ya wao kuondoka, tazama, Malaika wa Bwana akamtokea Yosefu usingizini, akisema: “Inuka, na mchukue mvulana na mama yake, na kukimbilia Misri. Na ukae hapo mpaka nikuambie. Kwa maana Herode atamtafuta kijana amwangamize.

2:14 Na kuamka, akamchukua mvulana na mama yake usiku, kisha akaondoka kwenda Misri.

2:15 Naye akabaki huko, mpaka kifo cha Herode, ili litimie neno lililonenwa na Bwana kwa kinywa cha nabii, akisema: “Kutoka Misri, Nilimpigia simu mwanangu.”

2:19 Kisha, when Herod had passed away, tazama, an Angel of the Lord appeared in sleep to Joseph in Egypt,

2:20 akisema: “Inuka, na mchukue mvulana na mama yake, and go into the land of Israel. For those who were seeking the life of the boy have passed away.”

2:21 Na kuinuka, he took the boy and his mother, and he went into the land of Israel.

2:22 Kisha, hearing that Archelaus reigned in Judea in place of his father Herod, he was afraid to go there. And being warned in sleep, he withdrew into parts of Galilee.

2:23 Na kuwasili, he lived in a city which is called Nazareth, in order to fulfill what was spoken through the prophets: “For he shall be called a Nazarene.”
