17 Ang tanang kaliwatan gikan kang Abraham ngadto kang David kay napulo ug upat ka kaliwatan, gikan kang David hangtod sa pagbiya ngadto sa Babilonia napulo ug upat ka kaliwatan, ug gikan sa pagbiya ngadto sa Babilonia hangtod kang Cristo napulo ug upat ka kaliwatan.
[As you can calculate, I have grouped Jesus’] ancestors [as follows: ] There was [a succession of] 14 of them from [the time when] Abraham [lived] to [the time when King] David [lived]. There was [a succession of] 14 of them from [the time when] David [lived] to [the time when] the [Israelites were taken] {[the Babylonian army took the Israelites]} away to Babylon. There was [a succession of] 14 of them from [the time when the Israelites were taken] {[the Babylonian army took the Israelites]} away to Babylon until [the time when] the Messiah [was born].
18 Ang pagkatawo ni Jesu-Cristo nahitabo niining mosunod nga paagi. Ang iyang inahan, si Maria, kaslonon ngadto kang Jose, apan sa wala pa sila nagkahiusa, nakaplagan nga siya buntis pinaagi sa Balaang Espiritu.
This is [the account of what happened just before] Jesus Christ was born. Mary, his mother, {had publicly promised Joseph that she would marry him} had been publicly promised to marry Joseph. Before they began to sleep together, [Mary] realized that she was pregnant. [It was the power of] the Holy Spirit that had caused her to become pregnant.
19 Ang iyang bana, si Jose, usa ka matarong nga tawo, apan dili niya buot nga pakaulawan siya sa kadaghanan. Mao nga nakahukom siya nga taposon sa hilom ang iyang pagpakasal kaniya.
Joseph, her [future] husband, was a man who obeyed God’s commands. [One of those commands was that men must divorce women who had acted immorally. So when Joseph learned that Mary was pregnant, he assumed that she was pregnant as a result of her acting immorally]. So he decided to break the engagement. But because he did not want to shame her publicly, he decided to do it privately.
20 Samtang naghunahuna siya niining mga butanga, ang anghel sa Ginoo nagpakita kaniya sa damgo, nga nag-ingon, “Jose, anak ni David, ayaw kahadlok sa pagpangasawa kang Maria, kay ang gipanamkon niya gipanamkon pinaagi sa Balaang Espiritu.
While he was seriously considering this, much to his surprise, in a dream he saw an angel whom the Lord [had sent]. The angel said, “Joseph, descendant of [King] David, do not be afraid that [you(sg) would be doing wrong if you(sg) would marry] Mary. Instead, [begin to treat her] as your wife, because the Holy Spirit, [not a man], has caused her to be pregnant.
21 Manganak siya ug usa ka anak nga lalaki, ug tawgon nimo ang iyang ngalan nga Jesus, kay iyang luwason ang iyang katawhan gikan sa ilang mga sala.”
She will give birth to a son. Since it is he who will cause that his people will be saved from [the guilt of] their having sinned, name [the baby] Jesus, [which means ‘the Lord saves people’].”
22 Kining tanan nahitabo aron matuman kung unsa ang gisulti sa Ginoo pinaagi sa propeta, nga nag-ingon,
All this happened as a result of what the Lord told the prophet [Isaiah to write long ago about what was going to happen]. This is what Isaiah wrote:
23 “Tan-awa, ang ulay manamkon ug manganak ug anak nga lalaki, ug tawgon nila ang iyang ngalan nga Immanuel”—nga ang buot ipasabot, “Ang Dios uban kanato.”
“Listen, a virgin will become pregnant and will give birth to a son. They will call him Emmanuel.” Emmanuel means ‘God is with us’.
24 Si Jose nimata gikan sa iyang pagkatulog ug gibuhat ang gimando sa anghel sa Ginoo kaniya ug gikuha niya siya ingon nga iyang asawa.
When Joseph got up from sleep, he did what the angel whom the Lord [had sent] commanded him to do. He took [Mary] home to be his wife.
25 Bisan pa niini, wala siya natulog uban kaniya hangtod nga nanganak siya ug usa ka anak nga lalaki. Ug iyang gitawag ang iyang ngalan nga Jesus.
But he did not have sexual relations with her until she had given birth to a son. And [Joseph] named him Jesus.
