1 Vuvu u Yesu Kristi ivren Dauda, ivren u Ibrahim.
The Lineage Roll of Jesus Christ, —Son of David, Son of Abraham.
2 Ibrahim a ngrji Ishaku, Ishaku ka ngrji Yakubu, u Yakubu a ngrji Yahuda ni ba mrli vayi ma.
Abraham begat Isaac, and Isaac begat Jacob, and Jacob, begat Judah and his brethren;
3 Yahuda a ngrji Perez mba Zerah ngrji u Tamar, Perez ngrji Hezron, u Hezron ngrji Ram.
And Judah begat Perez and Zarah of Tamah, and Perez begat Hezron, and Hezron begat Ram;
4 Ram ngrji Amminadah, Amminadah ngrji Nahshon, u Nahshon ngrji Salmon.
And Ram begat Amminadab, and Amminadab begat Nashon, and Nashon begat Salmon;
5 Salmon ngrji Boaz ngrji Rahab, Baoz ngrji Obadiya ngrji u Rautha, Obadiya ngrji Jesse.
And Salmon begat Boaz of Rahab, and Boaz begat Obed of Ruth, and Obed begat Jesse;
6 U Jesse ngrji ichu Dauda. Ichu Dauda ngrji Suleman wa iyima ana wa Uraya
And Jesse begat David the King. And David begat Solomon of her [that had been the wife] of Uriah;
7 Suleman a nu ngrji Rehoboam, Rehoboam a ngrji Abijah u Abijah ngrji Asa.
And Solomon begat Rehoboam, and Rehoboam begat Abijah, and Abijah begat Asa;
8 Asa ngrji Jehoshafat, Jehoshafat ngrji Joram, Joram ngrji Uzziya.
And Asa begat Jehoshaphat, and Jehoshaphat begat Joram, and Joram begat Uzziah;
9 Uzziya ngrji Jotham, Jotham ngrji Ahaz u Ahaz ngrji Hezekaya.
And Uzziah begat Jotham, and Jotham begat Ahaz, and Ahaz begat Hezekiah:
10 Hazekaya a ngrji Manaseh, Manaseh a ngrji Amon u Amon ngrji Yosiya.
And Hezekiah begat Manasseh, and Manasseh begat Amon, and Amon begat Josiah;
11 Yosiya ngrji Yekoniya ni mrli vayi ma wiere me ni nton wa ba vu ba hi ni Babila.
And Josiah begat Jechoniah, and his brethren, —upon the removal to Babylon.
12 U wa ba nji ye Babila, Yekoniya ngrji Shealtiel u Shealtiel ngrji Yerubabel.
And, after the removal to Babylon, Jechoniah begat Shealtiel, and Shealtiel begat Zerubbabel;
13 Yerubabel ngrji Abuid, Abuid ngrji Eliakim, u Eliakim ngrji Azor.
And Zerubbabel begat Abiud, and Abiud begat Eliakim, and Eliakim begat Azor;
14 Azor ngrji Zadok, Zadok ngrji Achim u Achim ngrji Eliud.
And Azor begat Sadoc, and Sadoc begat Achim, and Achim begat Eliud;
15 Eliud ngrji Eleazer, Eleazer
And Eliud begat Eleazar, and Eleazar begat Matthan, and Matthan begat Jacob; —
16 ngrji Matthan, u Matthan ngrji Yakubu. U Yakubu ngrji Yusufu illon Maryamu wa a ngrji Yesu wa ba yo'u din Kristi.
And Jacob begat Joseph, the husband of Mary, of whom was born Jesus, —who is called Christ.
17 To inzan ba wawu rji ni Ibrahim hi Dauda ba wlon don zia, rji ni Dauda hi ntton wa ba vu hi ni Babila bahi izan zia, u rji ni ni ntton u wa bahe ni Babila hi ni ye Kristi ba nzan wlon don zia.
So then, all the generations from Abraham unto David, are, fourteen, generations, and, from David unto the removal to Babylon, fourteen, generations; and, from the removal to Babylon unto the Christ, fourteen, generations.
18 Ingrji Yesu Kristi ahe towa: wa ba nna yima Maryamu ni Yusufu gben ntton wa baka gran kpa, u nne Ruhu tsatsar ye riwu.
Now the birth, of [Jesus] Christ, was, thus: His mother Mary having been betrothed to Joseph, —before they came together, she was found with child by [the] Holy Spirit.
19 U Yusufu illon ma indi u klu Rji, nda na son nno shan na, a cu sron ma rju ni gran nda kama ni wu niyay'bi (aboye)
Moreover, Joseph her husband, being, righteous, and yet unwilling to expose her, —intended, privately, to divorce her.
20 Amma, asi tamre towa, u malaika Baci ka ye niwu ni rah nda tre, “Yusufu, ivren Dauda, na klu sisri ban wame Maryamu na, don ikpie a wrji anne ma, a u Ruhu tsatsar.
But, when, these things, he had pondered, lo! a messenger of the Lord, by dream, appeared to him, saying, —Joseph, son of David! do not fear to take unto thee Mary thy wife, for, that which, in her, hath been begotten, is of [the], Holy, Spirit.
21 Ani ngrji vrenlon wa u yowu ndi Yesu, don ani kpa ndi ma cuwo ni gbugbu latre mba.
Moreover she shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt call his name Jesus, —for, he, will save his people from their sins.
22 To, ahe to yi don ndu tre Baci he na wa a hla din.
But, all this, hath come to pass, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the Lord, through the prophet, saying:
23 “To mba, vivren wa ri wa ana to lillona ani ye he nne nda ngrji vrenlon wa ba yo wa ndi Imanuwal” wa hi riri ni “Irji he nita”
Lo! a Virgin, shall be with child, and shall bring forth a son, —and they shall call his name Emmanuel; which is, being translated, God with us.
24 U Yusufu, gbla sh'me ni nah tie ikpie wa Malaika hla niwu nda hi ka ban wa-a hi ni kpama.
And Joseph, awaking, from his sleep, did as the messenger of the Lord directed him, —and took unto him his wife;
25 Ana rlihe toh wa-a sai wa a ngrji vren ma u mumla. Ayo nde ma di Yesu.
and knew her not, until she had brought forth a son, —and he called his name Jesus.
