Tangena endlini, tabona umntfwana naMariya, unina. Taguca phansi, tadvumisa iNkhosi; tase tivula tikhwama tato, tamupha tipho: igolide, nemphepho, nemakha.

Kwatsi kube kutalwe Jesu eBhetlehema esigodzini saseJudiya ngesikhatsi Herodi ayinkhosi, kwefika tati eJerusalema tiphuma emphumalanga, tabuta tatsi: “Uphi lomntfwana lotelwe loyinkhosi yemaJuda? Ngobe sabona inkhanyeti yakhe iphuma emphumalanga. Site kutemkhotsamela.”

Tatsi natiyibona lenkhanyeti, tafa kujabula.

Kwatsi kube tati tisuke lapho, ingilosi yeNkhosi yatibonakalisa kuJosefa ephusheni itsi: “Vuka, utsatse umntfwana nenina, nibalekele eGibhithe, nifike nihlale khona niyawuze nitjelwe ngimi; ngobe Herodi utawufuna lomntfwana kuze ambulale.”
