All the generations therefore from Abraham to David are fourteen generations: and from David until the captivity of Babylon fourteen generations: and from the Babylonish captivity unto Christ, fourteen generations.
18 Jesus Christ sua na thu sia hibang a hihi: A nu Mary sia Joseph in dokzu a piak sa hi a, a ki ngawm khop ma in Thaa Thiangtho taw nau ngil om hi.
Now the birth of Jesus Christ was in wise: when Mary his mother was promised in marriage to Joseph, before they came together, she was found with child by the Holy Ghost:
19 Joseph sia thutang khat hi a, Mary mindaisak nuam ngawl ahikom, nol ku tu in ngaisun hi.
but Joseph her husband, being a just man, and not willing publicly to expose her, was inclined to break off the contract with her privately;
20 Tabang a ngaisut laitak in, a mang sung ah vantungmi khat hong ki lang a, David suan Joseph awng, Mary na zi tu in teenpui tu lau heak in: banghangziam cile a naungil sia Tha Thiangtho taw a hihi.
and when he was thinking on these things, behold an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream, saying, Joseph thou Son of David, scruple not to take unto thee Mary thy wife; for that which is conceived in her is from the Holy Spirit.
21 Tapa nei tu a, tua tapa in a mite mawna pan ngum tu ahi man in, Jesus ci in a min na phuak tu hi: ci in vangtungmi in son hi.
And she shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt call his name Jesus, for he shall save his people from their sins.
22 Hi te theampo Pathian in kamsang te tungtawn in a sonkholsa a tangtun na hi, kamsang i sonkhol na ah,
(Now all this came to pass, that it might be fulfilled, which the Lord spake by the prophet, saying,
23 En vun, ngaknu thiangtho khat naungil om tu a, tapa khat nei tu hi, a min Immanuel kiphuak tu hi, Emmanuel a khiakna sia, Pathian eite taw hong om hi, ci nopna a hihi.
"Behold a virgin shall conceive and bear a son, and they shall call his name Emmanuel," which is God with us.)
24 Joseph a khanlaw ciang, Topa vantungmi i sawl bang in, Mary tenpui hi.
So Joseph, when he awoke from his sleep, did as the angel of the Lord directed him, and took home his wife:
25 Ahihang taciil a nei dong luppui ngawl a, a min Jesus ci in phuak hi.
and he knew her not, till she brought forth her Son the first-born, and he called his name Jesus.
