Ná nkurɔfo bi wɔ Israel apuei fam a wɔgye di sɛ nsoromma betumi akyerɛ wɔn kwan. Anadwo bi, mmarima bi a wɔfi Apuei fam huu biribi a ɛte sɛ nsoromma a ɛhyerɛn paa sɛ ɛnam wim. Enti wɔdii akyi. “Nsoromma” no dii wɔn anim de wɔn kopuee Yerusalem. Mmarima no duu hɔ no, wɔbisabisaa nkurɔfo sɛ: ‘Abofra a ɔbɛyɛ Yudafo hene no wɔ he? Yɛaba sɛ yɛrebɛkotow no.’

Bere a Yerusalem hene Herode tee ɔhene foforo bi ho asɛm no, ɛhaw no paa. Ɔhene no bisaa asɔfo mpanyin no sɛ: ‘Ɛhe na wɔkyerɛ sɛ wɔbɛwo saa ɔhene yi?’ Wɔka kyerɛɛ no sɛ: ‘Adiyifo no kaa sɛ wɔbɛwo no wɔ Betlehem.’ Enti Herode frɛɛ mmarima a wɔfi Apuei fam no, na ɔka kyerɛɛ wɔn sɛ: ‘Monkɔ Betlehem nkɔhwehwɛ saa abofra yi, na mommɛka baabi a ɔwɔ no nkyerɛ me. Mepɛ sɛ me nso mekɔkotow no.’ Nanso, na ɛyɛ atoro na ɔredi.

Yehowa ka kyerɛɛ mmarima a wɔfi Apuei fam no sɛ, ɛnsɛ sɛ wɔsan kɔ Herode nkyɛn. Bere a Herode huu sɛ mmarima no ansan amma no, ne bo fuwii paa. Esiane sɛ Herode nsa anka Yesu nti, ɔhyɛɛ mmara sɛ wɔnkunkum mmarimaa nkumaa a wɔn mfe te sɛ Yesu a wɔwɔ Betlehem no nyinaa. Nanso, wɔannya Yesu, efisɛ na Yesu wɔ Egypt nohoa.
