Matthew 1
1 Book of the generation of Jesus Christ, Son of David, Son of Abraham.
Hayssafe kaallidi xaafettidayssi Dawite na7a Abrahaame na7a gidida Yesuus Kiristtoosa yeletethaa.

Abrahamey Yisaaqa yelis; Yisaaqi Yayqooba yelis; Yayqoobi Yihudanne iya ishata yelis;

6 and Jesse begat David the king. And David begat Solomon, of her [that had been the wife] of Urias;
Isseyyey kawuwa Dawite yelis; Dawitey koyro Ooriyo machcheefe Solomone yelis;
7 and Solomon begat Roboam, and Roboam begat Abia, and Abia begat Asa,
Solomoney Robi7aame yelis; Robi7aamey Abiya yelis; Abiyey Asaafe yelis;
8 and Asa begat Josaphat, and Josaphat begat Joram, and Joram begat Ozias,
Asaafi Iyosaafexe yelis; Iyosaafixey Iyoraame yelis; Iyoraamey Ooziyane yelis;
9 and Ozias begat Joatham, and Joatham begat Achaz, and Achaz begat Ezekias,
Ooziyaney Iyo7atame yelis; Iyo7atamey Akkaza yelis; Akkazi Hiziqiyasa yelis;
10 and Ezekias begat Manasses, and Manasses begat Amon, and Amon begat Josias,
Hiziqiyasi Minaase yelis; Minaasey Amoona yelis; Amooni Iyosiyaasa yelis;
11 and Josias begat Jechonias and his brethren, at the time of the carrying away of Babylon.
Isra7eele asay di7ettidi Babiloone biittaa bida wode Iyosiyaasi Ikoniyananne iya ishata yelis.
12 And after the carrying away of Babylon, Jechonias begat Salathiel, and Salathiel begat Zorobabel,
Babiloone biitta Isra7eele asay di7ettidi bidaappe guye Ikoniyaani Selaatiyale yelis. Selaatiyaley Zerubaabela yelis;
13 and Zorobabel begat Abiud, and Abiud begat Eliakim, and Eliakim begat Azor,
Zerubaabeli Abdiyu yelis; Abdiyuy Eliyaaqeme yelis; Eliyaaqemey Azaara yelis;
14 and Azor begat Sadoc, and Sadoc begat Achim, and Achim begat Eliud,
Azaari Sadooqe yelis; Sadooqey Akiime yelis; Akiimey Eliyuuda yelis;
15 and Eliud begat Eliazar, and Eliazar begat Matthan, and Matthan begat Jacob,
Eliyuudi Alaazara yelis; Alaazari Maatane yelis; Maataney Yayqooba yelis;
16 and Jacob begat Joseph, the husband of Mary, of whom was born Jesus, who is called Christ.
Yayqoobi Yoosefa yelis; Yoosefi Kiristtoosa giya Yesuusa yelida Mayraami azina.
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.
Hiza, yeletethay Abrahameppe Dawite gakkanaw tammanne oydda. Dawiteppe bidi Babiloone di7uwa gakkanaw tammanne oydda. Babiloone di7uwappe bidi Kiristtoosa gakkanaw tammanne oyddu yeletethi gidees.
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.
Yesuus Kiristtoosa yeletethaa taarikey hayssafe kaalleyssa. Iya aaya Mayraama Yoosefas oyshetta de7ashe Yoosefara gahettonna Geeshsha Ayyaanaappe qanthatasu.
19 But Joseph, her husband, being [a] righteous [man], and unwilling to expose her publicly, purposed to have put her away secretly;
Yoosefi Xillo asi gidida gisho iyo asan kessanaw koyibeenna. Yaaniya gisho qosan iyo agganaw qoppis.
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.
I he qofan de7ishin Xoossaa kiitanchchoy amuhon qonccidi, “Dawite na7aw, Yoosefa, Mayraama qanthatiday Geeshsha Ayyaanaappe gidiya gisho iyo ekkanaw yayyofa” yaagis.
21 And she shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt call his name Jesus, for he shall save his people from their sins.
Iya adde na7a yelana, I ba deriya entta nagaraappe ashshiya gisho iya sunthaa ne Yesuusa gada xeegana.
22 Now all this came to pass that that might be fulfilled which was spoken by [the] Lord, through the prophet, saying,
Goday nabiya Isayaasa doonan,
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.'
“Hekko geela7iya qanthatana; adde na7akka yelana; iya sunthay Ammanu7eela geetettana” goyssi polettana mela ha ubbay hanis. Ammanu7eela geyssas birshshethay “Xoossay nuura de7ees” guussu.
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,
Yoosefi dhiskkofe barkkidi Godaa kiitanchchoy kiittidayssa mela Mayraamo ba soo efis.
25 and knew her not until she had brought forth her firstborn son: and he called his name Jesus.
Shin ba bayra na7a yelana gakkanaw iyo bochchibeenna; yelettida na7akka Yesuusa gidi xeegis.
