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.
Ary ny taranaka rehetra hatramin’ i Abrahama ka hatramin’ i Davida dia taranaka efatra ambin’ ny folo; ary hatramin’ i Davida ka hatramin’ ny nifindrana tany Babylona dia taranaka efatra ambin’ ny folo; ary hatramin’ ny nifindrana tany Babylona ka hatramin’ i Kristy dia taranaka efatra ambin’ ny folo.
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.
Ary ny nahaterahan’ i Jesosy Kristy dia toy izao: Rehefa nanaiky Maria, renin’ i Jesosy, ho fofombadin’ i Josefa, raha tsy mbola nivady izy, dia hita fa nitoe-jaza avy tamin’ ny Fanahy Masìna izy.
19 But Joseph, her husband, being [a] righteous [man], and unwilling to expose her publicly, purposed to have put her away secretly;
Ary Josefa vadiny, izay lehilahy marina sady tsy ta-hanala baraka azy, dia nikasa hametraka azy mangingina.
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.
Fa raha mbola nisaina izany izy, indro, nisy anjelin’ ny Tompo niseho taminy tamin’ ny nofy ka nanao hoe: Ry Josefa, zanak’ i Davida, aza matahotra hampakatra an’ i Maria vadinao; fa ny Zaza ao an-kibony dia avy amin’ ny Fanahy Masìna,
21 And she shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt call his name Jesus, for he shall save his people from their sins.
ka hiteraka Zazalahy izy, ary ny anarany hataonao hoe Jesosy; fa Izy no hamonjy ny olony ho afaka amin’ ny fahotany.
22 Now all this came to pass that that might be fulfilled which was spoken by [the] Lord, through the prophet, saying,
Ary izany rehetra izany dia tonga mba hahatanteraka izay nampilazain’ ny Tompo ny mpaminany hoe:
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.'
Indro, ny virijina hitoe-jaza ka hiteraka zazalahy; Ary ny anarany hataon’ ny olona hoe Imanoela, izany hoe, raha adika: Amintsika Andriamanitra.
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,
Ary Josefa, rehefa nahatsiaro tamin’ ny torimasony, dia nanao araka izay nandidian’ ny anjelin’ ny Tompo ary ka nampakatra ny vadiny.
25 and knew her not until she had brought forth her firstborn son: and he called his name Jesus.
Ary tsy nahalala azy izy mandra-piterany Zazalahy; ary ny anarany nataony hoe Jesosy.
