Matthew 1
1 Book of the generation of Jesus Christ, Son of David, Son of Abraham.

6 and Jesse begat David the king. And David begat Solomon, of her [that had been the wife] of Urias;
Jesse loh manghai David a sak tih, David neh Uriah kah yurho loh Solomon a sak.
7 and Solomon begat Roboam, and Roboam begat Abia, and Abia begat Asa,
Solomon loh Rehoboam a sak tih, Rehoboam loh Abijah a sak, Abijah loh Asa a sak
8 and Asa begat Josaphat, and Josaphat begat Joram, and Joram begat Ozias,

9 and Ozias begat Joatham, and Joatham begat Achaz, and Achaz begat Ezekias,

10 and Ezekias begat Manasses, and Manasses begat Amon, and Amon begat Josias,

11 and Josias begat Jechonias and his brethren, at the time of the carrying away of Babylon.
Josiah he Babylonla a puennah kungah Jekhoniah neh a manuca rhoek te a sak
12 And after the carrying away of Babylon, Jechonias begat Salathiel, and Salathiel begat Zorobabel,
Babylon la a puennah hnukah, Jekhoniah loh Shealtiel a sak, Shealtiel loh Zerubbabel a sak,
13 and Zorobabel begat Abiud, and Abiud begat Eliakim, and Eliakim begat Azor,
Zerubbabel loh Abiud a sak tih, Abiud loh Eliakim a sak, Eliakim loh Azor a sak,
14 and Azor begat Sadoc, and Sadoc begat Achim, and Achim begat Eliud,

15 and Eliud begat Eliazar, and Eliazar begat Matthan, and Matthan begat Jacob,
Eliud loh Eleazar a sak tih, Eleazar loh Matthan a sak, Matthan loh Jakob a sak,
16 and Jacob begat Joseph, the husband of Mary, of whom was born Jesus, who is called Christ.
Jakob loh Mary kah a va Joseph a sak. Anih lamloh Khrih la a khue Jesuh a sak.
17 All the generations, therefore, from Abraham to David [were] fourteen generations; and from David until the carrying away of Babylon, fourteen generations; and from the carrying away of Babylon unto the Christ, fourteen generations.
Te dongah Abraham lamloh David duela a khongla khong hlaili tih, David lamloh Babylonla a puennah duela khong hlaili, Babylonla a puennah lamloh Khrih duela boeih ah khong hlaili lo.
18 Now the birth of Jesus Christ was thus: His mother, Mary, that is, having been betrothed to Joseph, before they came together, she was found to be with child of [the] Holy Spirit.
Jesuh Khrih kah rhuirhong khaw ana om tangloeng. A manu Mary he Joseph hamla a bae dae a om rhoi hlan ah Mueihla Cim loh bungvawn la a om sak te a ming.
19 But Joseph, her husband, being [a] righteous [man], and unwilling to expose her publicly, purposed to have put her away secretly;
A va Joseph tah aka duengla om tih anih te yan ham a ngaih pawt dongah toeng hamla duem cai.
20 but while he pondered on these things, behold, an angel of [the] Lord appeared to him in a dream, saying, Joseph, son of David, fear not to take to [thee] Mary, thy wife, for that which is begotten in her is of [the] Holy Spirit.
He a poek vaengah, boeipa kah puencawn loh anih taengla a mang ah pakcak a phoe pah tih, “David capa Joseph Mary te na yuula loh ham rhih boeh, anih a vawn he Mueihla Cim rhangnen ni,”.
21 And she shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt call his name Jesus, for he shall save his people from their sins.
Capa a cun vaengah a ming te Jesuh na sui ni. Anih long tah a pilnam te a tholh khui lamloh a khang ni.
22 Now all this came to pass that that might be fulfilled which was spoken by [the] Lord, through the prophet, saying,
Boeipa kah a thui te soep sak hamla he he boeih thoeng coeng.
23 Behold, the virgin shall be with child, and shall bring forth a son, and they shall call his name Emmanuel, which is, being interpreted, 'God with us.'
Tonghma lamlong khaw, “Oila te bungvawn la om vetih capa a cun ni, a ming tah Emmanuel la a khue uh ni he. Te tah mamih taengah aka om Pathen ni a thuingaih,” a ti nah.
24 But Joseph, having awoke up from his sleep, did as the angel of [the] Lord had enjoined him, and took to [him] his wife,
Joseph tah a ih kung lamkah a thoh vaengah Boeipa kah puencawn loh anih a uen bangla a ngai tih a yuu te a loh.
25 and knew her not until she had brought forth her firstborn son: and he called his name Jesus.
Tedae capa a cun hil Mary te ming pawh. A ming te khaw Jesuh a sui.
