The book of the generation of Jesus Christ, the son of David, the son of Abraham.

and Solomon begat Roboam; and Roboam begat Abia; and Abia begat Asa;

Hozias begat Joatham; and Joatham begat Achaz; Achaz begat Hezekiah;
10 Hazekaya a ngrji Manaseh, Manaseh a ngrji Amon u Amon ngrji Yosiya.
and Hezekiah begat Manasses; and Manasses 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 Jechonias and his brothers in the captivity of Babylon.
12 U wa ba nji ye Babila, Yekoniya ngrji Shealtiel u Shealtiel ngrji Yerubabel.
And after the captivity of Babylon, Jechonias begat Salathiel; and Salathiel begat Zorababbel;
13 Yerubabel ngrji Abuid, Abuid ngrji Eliakim, u Eliakim ngrji Azor.

and Jacob begat Joseph the husband of Mary, from whom Jesus, who is called Christ, was born.
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.
Therefore all the generations from Abraham unto David are fourteen generations; from David unto the captivity of Babylon are fourteen generations; and from the captivity of Babylon unto Christ are 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.
The birth of Jesus Christ was thus: His mother Mary, having been betrothed to Joseph, before they came together, was found having gestation from the Holy Ghost.
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)
And Joseph her husband, being righteous and not wishing to expose her publicly, determined to send her away secretly.
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.
And he meditating on these things, behold an angel of the Lord appeared unto him in a dream, saying; Joseph, son of David, do not fear to receive Mary thy wife; for that which is begotten in her is of the Holy Spirit;
21 Ani ngrji vrenlon wa u yowu ndi Yesu, don ani kpa ndi ma cuwo ni gbugbu latre mba.
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.
And all this took place in order that the Word, having been spoken by the Lord through the prophet, might be fulfilled, 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”
Behold, the virgin shall have gestation and bring forth a son, and they will call his name Emmanuel, which is interpreted, God is 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 rising from sleep did as the angel of the Lord commanded him;
25 Ana rlihe toh wa-a sai wa a ngrji vren ma u mumla. Ayo nde ma di Yesu.
and he took his wife to himself, and did not know her until she brought forth a son, and called his name Jesus.
