Matthew 1
1 Book of the generation of Jesus Christ, Son of David, Son of Abraham.
Ma e kaka anywola mar Yesu Kristo ma wuod Daudi kendo wuod Ibrahim chalo:
2 Abraham begat Isaac; and Isaac begat Jacob, and Jacob begat Juda and his brethren;
Ibrahim ne en wuon Isaka, Isaka ne en wuon Jakobo, to Jakobo ne en wuon Juda gi owetene.
3 and Juda begat Phares and Zara of Thamar; and Phares begat Esrom, and Esrom begat Aram,
Juda ne en wuon Perez gi Zera, ma min-gi ne en Tamar, Perez ne en wuon Hezron, Hezron ne en wuon Ram,
4 and Aram begat Aminadab, and Aminadab begat Naasson, and Naasson begat Salmon,
to Ram ne en wuon Aminadab. Aminadab ne en wuon Nashon, Nashon ne en wuon Salmon,
5 and Salmon begat Booz of Rachab; and Booz begat Obed of Ruth; and Obed begat Jesse,
Salmon ne en wuon Boaz, ma min-gi ne en Rahab. Boaz ne en wuon Obed ma min-gi ne en Ruth, Obed ne en wuon Jesse,
6 and Jesse begat David the king. And David begat Solomon, of her [that had been the wife] of Urias;
to Jesse ne en wuon Ruoth Daudi. Daudi ne en wuon Solomon, ma min-gi, kane pok Daudi okawe, ne en chi Uria,
7 and Solomon begat Roboam, and Roboam begat Abia, and Abia begat Asa,
Solomon ne en wuon Rehoboam, Rehoboam ne en wuon Abija, to Abija ne en wuon Asa.
8 and Asa begat Josaphat, and Josaphat begat Joram, and Joram begat Ozias,
Asa ne en wuon Jehoshafat, Jehoshafat ne en wuon Jehoram, Jehoram ne en wuon Uzia,
9 and Ozias begat Joatham, and Joatham begat Achaz, and Achaz begat Ezekias,
to Uzia ne en wuon Jotham, Jotham ne en wuon Ahaz, Ahaz ne en wuon Hezekia,
10 and Ezekias begat Manasses, and Manasses begat Amon, and Amon begat Josias,
to Hezekia ne en wuon Manase. Manase ne en wuon Amon, Amon ne en wuon Josia,
11 and Josias begat Jechonias and his brethren, at the time of the carrying away of Babylon.
kendo Josia ne en wuon Jekonia gi owetene, e kinde mag twech e piny Babulon.
12 And after the carrying away of Babylon, Jechonias begat Salathiel, and Salathiel begat Zorobabel,
Bangʼ twech e Babulon: Jekonia ne en wuon Shealtiel, Shealtiel ne en wuon Zerubabel,
13 and Zorobabel begat Abiud, and Abiud begat Eliakim, and Eliakim begat Azor,
Zerubabel ne en wuon Abihud, to Abihud ne en wuon Eliakim. Eliakim ne en wuon Azor,
14 and Azor begat Sadoc, and Sadoc begat Achim, and Achim begat Eliud,
Azor ne en wuon Zadok, Zadok ne en wuon Akim, to Akim ne en wuon Eliud.
15 and Eliud begat Eliazar, and Eliazar begat Matthan, and Matthan begat Jacob,
Eliud ne en wuon Eleazar, Eleazar ne en wuon Mathan, Mathan ne en wuon Jakobo,
16 and Jacob begat Joseph, the husband of Mary, of whom was born Jesus, who is called Christ.
to Jakobo ne en wuon Josef mane chwor Maria mane onywolo Yesu, miluongo ni Kristo.
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.
Kamano tienge duto mane nitie chakre Ibrahim nyaka Daudi ne gin apar gangʼwen; to chakre Daudi nyaka ndalo twech e Babulon ne tienge apar gangʼwen kendo chakre ndalo twech nyaka kinde mag Kristo bende ne tienge apar gangʼwen.
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.
Kama e kaka nywol mar Yesu Kristo notimore: Noyudo min mare ma Maria osesingi ne Josef mondo okende, to kane pok gibedo kaachiel, noyude ka en gi ich kuom Roho Maler.
19 But Joseph, her husband, being [a] righteous [man], and unwilling to expose her publicly, purposed to have put her away secretly;
Nikech Josef chwore ne en ngʼat makare, kendo ne ok odwar ni okuod wiye e nyim ji, omiyo nochano e pache mar weye ma lingʼ-lingʼ.
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.
To bangʼ paro mar timo kamano, Malaika mar Ruoth nofwenyorene e lek mowachone niya, “Josef wuod Daudi, kik iluor dhi gi Maria dala kaka chiegi, nikech gima otingʼo e iye owuok kuom Roho Maler.
21 And she shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt call his name Jesus, for he shall save his people from their sins.
Obiro nywolo wuowi, kendo nyaka imiye nying ni Yesu, nikech obiro waro joge kogolo e richo.”
22 Now all this came to pass that that might be fulfilled which was spoken by [the] Lord, through the prophet, saying,
Magi duto notimore mondo ochop gima ne Ruoth owacho gi dho janabi niya,
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.'
“Nyako ngili biro mako ich minywol wuowi, mi nigiluonge ni Imanuel” (tiende ni, “Nyasaye ni kodwa”).
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,
Kane Josef ochiewo gokinyi, notimo gima malaika mar Ruoth nochike mondo otim, kendo nokawo Maria odhigo dala mobedo chiege.
25 and knew her not until she had brought forth her firstborn son: and he called his name Jesus.
To ne ok oriwore kode nyaka bangʼ kane osenywolo nyathi ma wuowi kendo nomiye nying ni Yesu.
