1 This is the record of the genealogy of Jesus Christ, the son of David, the son of Abraham:
Abraham hoi Devit e catoun lah kaawm e, Jisuh Khrih a thonae lairui cauk teh,
2 Abraham was the father of Isaac, Isaac the father of Jacob, and Jacob the father of Judah and his brothers.

6 and Jesse the father of David the king. Next: David was the father of Solomon by Uriah’s wife,

8 Asa was the father of Jehoshaphat, Jehoshaphat the father of Joram, and Joram the father of Uzziah.

10 Hezekiah was the father of Manasseh, Manasseh the father of Amon, Amon the father of Josiah,
Hezekiah capa Manasseh, Manasseh capa Amon, Amon capa Josiah,
11 and Josiah the father of Jeconiah and his brothers at the time of the exile to Babylon.
Josiah capa Jekhoniah hoi a hmaunawnghanaw, Babilon lah a kampuen tawmlei vah a khe e ca catounnaw doeh.
12 After the exile to Babylon: Jeconiah was the father of Shealtiel, Shealtiel the father of Zerubbabel,
Babilon kho lah a kampuen awh hnukkhu, Jekhoniah capa Shealtiel, Shealtiel capa Zerubbabel,
13 Zerubbabel the father of Abiud, Abiud the father of Eliakim, and Eliakim the father of Azor.

14 Azor was the father of Zadok, Zadok the father of Achim, and Achim the father of Eliud.
Azor capa Zadok, Zadok capa Akhim, Akhim capa Eliud,
15 Eliud was the father of Eleazar, Eleazar the father of Matthan, Matthan the father of Jacob,
Eliud capa Eleazar, Eleazar capa Matthan, Matthan capa Jakop,
16 and Jacob the father of Joseph, the husband of Mary, of whom was born Jesus, who is called Christ.
Jakop capa, Meri e a vâ Joseph, Khrih tie Jisuh teh Meri koehoi a khe.
17 In all, then, there were fourteen generations from Abraham to David, fourteen from David to the exile to Babylon, and fourteen from the exile to the Christ.
Abraham koehoi Devit totouh a se hlaipali, Devit koehoi Babilon kho lah a kampuen awh totouh a se hlaipali, Babilon kho lah a kampuen awh hoi Khrih totouh a se hlaipali touh a pha.
18 This is how the birth of Jesus Christ came about: His mother Mary was pledged in marriage to Joseph, but before they came together, she was found to be with child through the Holy Spirit.
Jisuh Khrih a khenae teh, hettelah ao. A manu Meri teh Joseph yu lah pacei lah ao navah tak cungtalah a hmawng roi hoehnahlan,
19 Because Joseph her husband was a righteous man and was unwilling to disgrace her publicly, he resolved to divorce her quietly.
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.
20 But after he had pondered these things, an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream and said, “Joseph, son of David, do not be afraid to embrace Mary as your wife, for the One conceived in her is from the Holy Spirit.
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.
21 She will give birth to a Son, and you are to give Him the name Jesus, because He will save His people from their sins.”
Ahni ni Ca tongpa a khe vaiteh, Jisuh telah na phung han. Bangkongtetpawiteh, a taminaw yon thung hoi a rungngang han dawkvah atipouh.
22 All this took place to fulfill what the Lord had said through the prophet:
Hete akong teh Bawipa ni profetnaw hno lahoi sutdeilawk akuep nahane doeh.
23 “Behold, the virgin will be with child and will give birth to a son, and they will call Him Immanuel” (which means, “God with us”).
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.
24 When Joseph woke up, he did as the angel of the Lord had commanded him, and embraced Mary as his wife.
Joseph a kâhlaw teh, Cathut e kalvantami ni lawk a poe e patetlah a yu teh a paluen.
25 But he had no union with her until she gave birth to a Son. And he gave Him the name Jesus.
Hatei, camin a khe hoehroukrak tak cungtalah hmawngkhai hoeh. Hote capa hah Jisuh telah a phung.
