NgokukaMathewu 2:1-11

UJesu esezelwe eBhethlehema eJudiya ngezinsuku zokubusa kukaHerode inkosi; bheka, kwafika izazi eJerusalema, zivela empumalanga, zathi: “Uphi lowo ozelwe eyinkosi yabaJuda na? Ngokuba siyibonile inkanyezi yakhe empumalanga, ngakho-ke size ukuzokhuleka kuye.” UHerode, inkosi, esekuzwile lokho wakhathazeka nalo lonke iJerusalema. Waqoqa bonke abaphristi abakhulu nezazimthetho zesizwe, wabuza kubo ukuthi uKhristu uzakuzalelwa kuphi. Bathi kuye: “EBhethlehema eJudiya, ngokuba kulotshiwe kanjalo ngomphrofethi, ukuthi: “ ‘Nawe Bhethlehema, lizwe lakwaJuda awumncinyane kubabusi bakwaJuda, ngokuba kuwe kuyakuvela umbusi oyakwelusa isizwe sami u-Israyeli.’ ” UHerode wayesezibiza ngasese izazi, wazibuzisisa ngesikhathi inkanyezi ebonakale ngaso, wazithuma eBhethlehema, wathi: “Hambani nifike nibuzisise ngomntwana, kuyothi nxa nimtholile ningibikele ukuze nami ngiye ngiyokhuleka kuye.” Seziyizwile inkosi, zaqhubeka nohambo. Inkanyezi ezayibona empumalanga yahamba phambi kwazo, yaze yafika yema phezu kwalapho ekhona umntwana. Zathi zingayibona inkanyezi, zathokoza ngokuthokoza okukhulu kakhulu. Zase zingena endlini, zabona umntwana nonina uMariya, zawa phansi, zakhuleka kuye. Zavula amagugu azo, zamkhunga ngezipho: igolide, amakha, nenhlaka.
