Naizvozvo mazera ese kubva kuna Abhurahama kusvikira kuna Dhavhidhi mazera gumi nemana; nekubva kuna Dhavhidhi kusvikira pakutapirwa kuBhabhironi mazera gumi nemana; nekubva pakutapirwa kuBhabhironi kusvikira kuna Kristu mazera gumi nemana.
18 And of Jesus Christ, the birth was thus: for His mother Mary having been betrothed to Joseph, before their coming together she was found to have conceived from the Holy Spirit,
Zvino kuberekwa kwaJesu Kristu kwaiva kwakadai: Nokuti mai vake Maria vakati vatsidzirwa kuroorwa naJosefa, vasati vasangana vakaonekwa vava nemimba kubva kuMweya Mutsvene.
19 and her husband Joseph being righteous, and not willing to make her an example, resolved to send her away privately.
Zvino Josefa murume wavo zvaakange ari wakarurama, asingadi kuvafumura, waida kuvaramba muchivande.
20 And on his thinking of these things, behold, a messenger of the LORD appeared to him in a dream, saying, “Joseph, son of David, you may not fear to receive your wife Mary, for that which was begotten in her is of [the] Holy Spirit,
Asi zvino wakati acharangarira zvinhu izvozvi, tarira, mutumwa waIshe wakaonekwa kwaari muchiroto achiti: Josefa, mwanakomana waDhavhidhi, usatya kuzvitorera Maria mukadzi wako; nokuti icho chakaumbwa maari ndecheMweya Mutsvene.
21 and she will bring forth a Son, and you will call His Name Jesus, for He will save His people from their sins.”
Uye achabereka Mwanakomana, uye uchatumidza zita rake Jesu, nokuti iye achaponesa vanhu vake pazvivi zvavo.
22 And all this has come to pass, that it may be fulfilled that was spoken by the LORD through the prophet, saying,
Zvino zvese izvozvi zvakaitwa kuti zvizadziswe zvakarehwa naIshe kubudikidza nemuporofita achiti:
23 “Behold, the virgin will conceive, and she will bring forth a Son, and they will call His Name Emmanuel,” which is, being interpreted, “God with us.”
Tarira, mhandara ichava nemimba, igobereka Mwanakomana, uye vachatumidza zita rake Emanueri, ndokuti kana zvichishandurwa, Mwari anesu.
24 And Joseph, having risen from sleep, did as the messenger of the LORD directed him, and received his wife,
Zvino Josefa amuka pahope akaita sezvakaraira mutumwa waIshe kwaari, akazvitorera mukadzi wake;
25 and did not know her until she brought forth her Son—the firstborn, and he called His Name Jesus.
uye haana kumuziva kusvikira azvara Mwanakomana wake wedangwe; akatumidza zita rake JESU.
