Matthew 1
1 A book of a genealogy of Jesus Christ, the son of David, the son of Abraham.
Iyi ndiyo nhoroondo yamadzitateguru aJesu Kristu mwanakomana waDhavhidhi, mwanakomana waAbhurahama:
2 Abraham begot Isaac, and Isaac begot Jacob, and Jacob begot Judah and his brothers,
Abhurahama aiva baba vaIsaka, Isaka baba vaJakobho, Jakobho baba vaJudha namadzikoma ake, navanunʼuna vake,
3 and Judah begot Perez and Zerah from Tamar, and Perez begot Hezron, and Hezron begot Ram,
Judha baba vaPerezi naZera, mai vavo vaiva Tamari, Perezi baba vaHezironi, Hezironi baba vaRamu,
4 and Ram begot Amminadab, and Amminadab begot Nahshon, and Nahshon begot Salmon,
Ramu baba vaAminadhabhu, Aminadhabhu baba vaNashoni, Nashoni baba vaSarimoni,
5 and Salmon begot Boaz from Rahab, and Boaz begot Obed from Ruth, and Obed begot Jesse,
Sarimoni baba vaBhoazi, mai vake vari Rahabhi, Bhoazi baba vaObhedhi, mai vake vari Rute, Obhedhi baba vaJese,
6 and Jesse begot David the king. And David begot Solomon from the widow of Uriah,
naJese baba vamambo Dhavhidhi. Dhavhidhi aiva baba vaSoromoni, mai vake ndivo vaimbova mukadzi waUria,
7 and Solomon begot Rehoboam, and Rehoboam begot Abijah, and Abijah begot Asa,
Soromoni baba vaRehobhoamu, Rehobhoamu baba vaAbhija, Abhija baba vaAsa,
8 and Asa begot Jehoshaphat, and Jehoshaphat begot Joram, and Joram begot Uzziah,
Asa baba vaJehoshafati, Jehoshafati baba vaJoramu, Joramu baba vaUzia,
9 and Uzziah begot Jotham, and Jotham begot Ahaz, and Ahaz begot Hezekiah,
Uzia baba vaJotamu, Jotamu baba vaAhazi, Ahazi baba vaHezekia.
10 and Hezekiah begot Manasseh, and Manasseh begot Amon, and Amon begot Josiah,
Hezekia baba vaManase, Manase baba vaAmoni, Amoni baba vaJosia,
11 and Josiah begot Jechoniah and his brothers during the Babylonian exile.
naJosia baba vaJekonia navanunʼuna vake panguva yavaiva kuutapwa muBhabhironi.
12 And after the Babylonian exile, Jechoniah begot Shealtiel, and Shealtiel begot Zerubbabel,
Vabva kuutapwa kuBhabhironi: Jekonia aiva baba vaShearitieri, Shearitieri baba vaZerubhabheri,
13 and Zerubbabel begot Abiud, and Abiud begot Eliakim, and Eliakim begot Azor,
Zerubhabheri baba vaAbhiudhi, Abhiudhi baba vaEriakimu, Eriakimu baba vaAzori.
14 and Azor begot Zadoc, and Zadoc begot Achim, and Achim begot Eliud,
Azori baba vaZadhoki, Zadhoki baba vaAkimu, Akimu baba vaEriudhi,
15 and Eliud begot Eleazar, and Eleazar begot Matthan, and Matthan begot Jacob,
Eriudhi baba vaEreazari, Ereazari baba vaMatani, Matani baba vaJakobho.
16 and Jacob begot Joseph the husband of Mary, of whom was born Jesus, who is called Christ.
Jakobho baba vaJosefa, uyo aiva murume waMaria, uyo akabereka Jesu, anonzi Kristu.
17 So all the generations from Abraham to David are fourteen generations, and from David to the Babylonian exile fourteen generations, and from the Babylonian exile to the Christ fourteen generations.
Nokudaro kwaiva nezvizvarwa gumi nezvina pamwe chete kubvira pana Abhurahama kusvika pana Dhavhidhi, zvizvarwa gumi nezvina kubva pana Dhavhidhi kusvika pakutapwa kwavo vachiendwa navo kuBhabhironi, zvizvarwa gumi nezvina kubva pakudzoka kwavo kuutapwa kusvika panguva yaKristu.
18 Now the birth of Jesus Christ was this way. For his mother Mary, who was betrothed to Joseph, before they came together she was found having in her womb from the Holy Spirit.
Uku ndiko kuberekwa kwakaitwa Jesu Kristu: Maria, mai vake vainge vatsidzirwa kuroorwa naJosefa, asi vasati vagara vose, achiri mhandara, akaonekwa ava napamuviri nokuda kwaMweya Mutsvene.
19 But Joseph her husband, being a righteous man, and not wanting to expose her to public disgrace, intended to dismiss her privately.
Asi nokuda kwokuti Josefa akanga ari munhu akarurama akafunga zvokumuramba chinyararire, asingamunyadzisi pavazhinji.
20 But while he considered these things, behold, an agent of the Lord appeared to him in a dream, saying, Joseph, thou son of David, fear not to take Mary to be thy wife, for that which was begotten in her is from the Holy Spirit.
Asi achiri kufunga nezvenyaya iyi, mutumwa waIshe akauya kwaari mukurota akasvikoti, “Josefa, mwana waDhavhidhi, usatya kutora Maria somukadzi wako nokuti pamuviri paava napo akapabata nokuda kwesimba raMweya Mutsvene.
21 And she will bring forth a son, and thou shall call his name JESUS, for he will save his people from their sins.
Achava nomwana mukomana wauchazotumidza zita rokuti Jesu nokuti ndiye achaponesa vanhu vake kubva muzvivi zvavo.”
22 Now all this has come to pass, so that what was spoken by the Lord through the prophet might be fulfilled, which says,
Izvi zvose zvakaitika kuti zvizadzise zvakanga zvataurwa naIshe kubudikidza nomuprofita wake zvokuti:
23 Behold, the virgin will have in her womb, and will bring forth a son. And they will call his name Immanuel, which is, being interpreted, God with us.
“Mhandara ichava napamuviri, igozvara mwana mukomana, uye vachamutumidza zita rokuti Emanueri, zvichireva kuti, ‘Mwari anesu.’”
24 And Joseph, being roused from his sleep, did as the agent of the Lord ordered him. And he took his wife,
Josefa paakapepuka, akaita sezvaakanga arayirwa nomutumwa waIshe, uye akatora Maria somukadzi wake,
25 and knew her not until she brought forth her son, the firstborn. And he called his name JESUS.
asi haana kusangana naye kusvikira azvara mwana mukomana. Akamutumidza zita rokuti Jesu.
