Iwanu iwomanya igholawila kwa kulola tsinondo iwalawile ubali wa kwalilawila litsua tsawatsa Yerusalemu, 2 waghutsa, “Yalikwani imndewa wa Wayahudi yelekighwe? Tuyona inondo yake kulawa ubali wa kwalilawila litsua, kuya tutsa kumtamanila.”
3 Imndewa Herodi na iwanu wose iwali Yerusalemu hawahulike apfo, tsawaghanzika. 4 Herodi kawakema hamwe iwatambika wakulu na iwolangulitsa Ghamalaghitso, kawaghutsa, “Kiristu Mkombotsi yatsakonekela kwani?”

Kuya wapfughula imikoba yawo, wamwing'a nzawadi, nzahabu, upfumba na dawa inoghile iikemighwa manemane.

Mkale ako mbaka hanitsokulongela, kwaapfila Herodi kobama yamkome imwana.” 14 Apfo Yosefu kalamka, kamsola imwana na mai wake ichilo chicho, waghenda Misiri. 15 Tsakakala ako mbaka Herodi hayafile. Chinu acho chitendeka ili imbuli yalongile Imtwatsa kubitila nabii itimile, “Tsanimkema mwanangu kulawa Misiri.”
