So all the generations from Abraham to David are fourteen generations; and from David to the exile to Babylon fourteen generations; and from the exile to Babylon to the Messiah, fourteen generations.
18 Jisuh Khrih a khenae teh, hettelah ao. A manu Meri teh Joseph yu lah pacei lah ao navah tak cungtalah a hmawng roi hoehnahlan,
Now the birth of Jesus (the) Messiah happened like this. His mother Mary had been engaged to Joseph, and before they came together, she was found to be with child from the Holy Spirit.
19 Kathoung Muitha e camo teh a vawn toe. A vâ Joseph teh tamikalan lah ao dawkvah, Meri kaya sak hane a ngai hoeh dawkvah, arulahoi ma hanlah a kâcai.
And Joseph, her husband, being a righteous man, and not willing to make her a public example, intended to put her away secretly.
20 Hottelah a kâcai navah, a manglah Bawipa e kalvantami, ahni koe a kamnue pouh teh, Devit capa Joseph, na yu Meri paluen hane hah na lungpuen hanh, atu e a vawn e camo teh Kathoung Muitha lahoi doeh a vawn.
But when he thought about these things, look, an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream, saying, "Joseph, son of David, do not be afraid to take to yourself Mary, your wife, for that which is conceived in her is of the Holy Spirit.
21 Ahni ni Ca tongpa a khe vaiteh, Jisuh telah na phung han. Bangkongtetpawiteh, a taminaw yon thung hoi a rungngang han dawkvah atipouh.
And she will bring forth a son, and you are to name him Jesus, for he will save his people from their sins."
22 Hete akong teh Bawipa ni profetnaw hno lahoi sutdeilawk akuep nahane doeh.
Now all this has happened, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the Lord through the prophet, saying,
23 Sutdeilawk teh, Khenhaw! tanglakacuem ni vawn vaiteh ca tongpa a khe han. A min teh Emmanuel telah a phung han. Emmanuel tie teh Cathut maimouh koe ao tinae doeh.
"Look, the virgin will conceive and bear a son, and they will call his name Immanuel;" which is translated, "God with us."
24 Joseph a kâhlaw teh, Cathut e kalvantami ni lawk a poe e patetlah a yu teh a paluen.
And Joseph arose from his sleep, and did as the angel of the Lord commanded him, and took his wife to himself;
25 Hatei, camin a khe hoehroukrak tak cungtalah hmawngkhai hoeh. Hote capa hah Jisuh telah a phung.
and had no marital relations with her until she had brought forth a son; and he named him Jesus.
