Awaganga awa ewufumanyanga waazre oku-aa Yesu owunene
Yesu yaiwulwa ku omugizi ogwa Bethleemu mu ekialo ekia Yudeea. Mu amiire ago, Omwami *Eroode nio owawanga ku entewe. Nikuemao otino, wario awantu awaaza ku omugizi ogwa Yerusaleemu ni waema mu ewialo ewia ewufumanyanga. Awantu wano waaesanga okusoma engʼeni-ngʼeni kandi wamanya ekia zilagana. Luuk 2:4–7 Waawuuzia otino, “Ariai omwana oiwuulwe okuwa omwami owa *Awayaudi? Twawona engʼeni-ngʼeni elagana okuiwulwa kwae ewufumanyanga, kandi wuno tuuzre okumuifunamira tumu-ee owunene.” Yere 23:5; Math 27:11
Olwa Omwami Eroode yawurra ekingʼana kino, iye alala na awantu awangi mu omugizi ogwa Yerusaleemu, waawa no okuinyaasia ino mu emioyo giawu. Yaeta awakangasi awa *awoozia alala na *awagerezi awa endagirra woona wamuuzako. Yawawuuzia aa *Kristo yasugananga aiwulwe. Waamulaga mbwe, “Bethleemu mu ekialo ekia Yudeea, aeniki kino nikio ekia *omugambi owa Katonda omulala yajoja:
“Ni iwue Bethleemu omugizi oguri mu ekialo ekia Yuuda,
ngori omutono ino okukira awaami awa Yuuda woona
kiomo awangi wamiire okuwa ni wakuwona yaaya;
aeniki ni iwue omwami ooza okuaaya awantu wange Awaisraeli aaza okuemako.” Miik 5:2 Yowa 7:42
Nikuemao, Eroode yaeta awasomi awa engʼeni-ngʼeni waria owuiwisi, awaamulaga enyinga ezia engʼeni-ngʼeni eria yafumiramo. Eroode yawatuma wagie Bethleemu na awalaga otino, “Mugie muagale omwana oyo geeza. Ni, ni mumutuukiire-utuukra otino, munkubre omunwa kugere neena ngie muifunamire mu-ee owunene.”
9-10 Olwa waamala okuwurra amangʼana aga Omwami Eroode, waafuma okugia emberi no olugendo lwawu. Kandi engʼeni-ngʼeni eya waawona ewufumanyanga eria yawafumira kandi. Olwa waagiwona, waawa no owusangaavu ino. Yawakangatra nawuno egia eidengʼa aa aiwariire ni aa omwana Yesu yawanga. 11 Olwa waaingira mu enyumba, waawona omwana wazane ni ngʼinwae Maaria. Woona waaifunama ansi wa-aa omwana Yesu owunene. Nikuemao, waaigula ewia owuwiikro wiawu, wafumiamo empanwa endootu-ndootu ezia igula eriri kungulu kiomo edhaabu, epooda ewunya esaami, alala na amavuta agawunya esaami agaetwa mbwe mane-maane, wa-aa omwana Yesu. Zabu 72:10, 15; Isaa 60:3, 6 12 Awantu wano, olwa waagonanga owuire, waasikirrwa mu amalooto mbwe wataaza wairana ku Eroode. Okwo kwagera wairana mu ekialo kiawu, ni walondre engira indi. Math 27:19
Yesu airwa Misiri okumizula olumbe
13 Olwa waamala okugia, *enyankoi yafumira Yoseefu mu amalooto na amulaga otino, “Ema, otoole omwana ono ni ngʼinwae orumuke ogie mu ekialo ekia Misiri. Gia oweere eyo nawuno nkulage, aeniki Eroode aaza okuagarizia omwana ono amuite.”
14 Kutio Yoseefu yaema atoola omwana ni ngʼinwae afuma nawo owuire okugia Misiri 15 aa yaweera nawuno Eroode afwa. Kutio amangʼana aga *Omwami Katonda yawoola ni kuwitra ku omugambi waae mbwe, “Nyiza okueta omuzia wange aeme Misiri” Osea 11:1 gaatuuka kuwuene.
16 Eroode yagia amanya mbwe awasomi awa engʼeni-ngʼeni waria, waalowa okukola okuagala kwae. Okwo kwagera enda yaae yayia ino. Yasikirra mbwe awaana awekizia woona mu omugizi ogwa Bethleemu alala ne ewitemo ewiri ampi, awa emiaka iwiri ni kuika ansi, nikulondokana ne enyinga ezia awantu awo waamulaga, waitwe!
17 Kuno kwatuusia amangʼana aga Omugambi Yeremia yawoola mbwe:
18 “Omwoyo guwurrwa Raama. Ee okurra ne enkweri enyingi.
Raeli arra awaana waae
kandi alowere okuoreziwua.
Aeniki awaana waae wafwire wawuere.” Yere 31:15
Yesu airaniziwua Nazareeti
19 Ne Eroode yamala okufwa, enyankoi owa Katonda yafumira Yoseefu mu amalooto, na ari Misiri. 20 Yamulaga otino, “Ema, otoole omwana ni ngʼinwae oirane mu ekialo ekia Israeli. Aeniki awaagalanga okuona owulamu owua omwana wafwire wawuere.” Okuf 4:19 21 Kutio Yoseefu yaema atoola omwana oyo ni ngʼinwae airana mu ekialo ekia Israeli. 22 No olwa yawurra mbwe Akelaao yawanga ku entewe eya Eroode swae, yatia okugia eyo. Yagia ale mu ekitemo ekia Galiili, kiomo yasiagiziwua mu amalooto mbwe yasugananga akole. 23 Yagia amenya mu omugizi oguetwa mbwe Nazareeti. Kandi okwo kwatuusia amangʼana agaawoolwa na awagambi owa Katonda ku Kristo mbwe: “Arietwa Omunazareeti.” Mari 1:24; Luuk 2:39; Yowa 1:45; Isaa 11:1
