5 and Salmon begot Boaz of Rahab, and Boaz begot Obed of Ruth, and Obed begot Jesse,
Salmon neh Rahab loh Boaz a sak rhoi, Boaz neh Ruth loh Obed a sak, Obed loh Jesse a sak.
6 and Jesse begot David the king. And David the king begot Solomon, of her [who had been] Uriah’s,
Jesse loh manghai David a sak tih, David neh Uriah kah yurho loh Solomon a sak.
7 and Solomon begot Rehoboam, and Rehoboam begot Abijah, and Abijah begot Asa,
Solomon loh Rehoboam a sak tih, Rehoboam loh Abijah a sak, Abijah loh Asa a sak
8 and Asa begot Jehoshaphat, and Jehoshaphat begot Joram, and Joram begot Uzziah,

9 and Uzziah begot Jotham, and Jotham begot Ahaz, and Ahaz begot Hezekiah,

10 and Hezekiah begot Manasseh, and Manasseh begot Amon, and Amon begot Josiah,
Hezekiah loh Manasseh a sak tih, Manasseh loh Amos a sak, Amos loh Josiah a sak.
11 and Josiah begot Jeconiah and his brothers, at the Babylonian removal.
Josiah he Babylonla a puennah kungah Jekhoniah neh a manuca rhoek te a sak
12 And after the Babylonian removal, Jeconiah begot Shealtiel, and Shealtiel begot Zerubbabel,
Babylon la a puennah hnukah, Jekhoniah loh Shealtiel a sak, Shealtiel loh Zerubbabel a sak,
13 and Zerubbabel begot Abiud, and Abiud begot Eliakim, and Eliakim begot Azor,
Zerubbabel loh Abiud a sak tih, Abiud loh Eliakim a sak, Eliakim loh Azor a sak,

15 and Eliud begot Eleazar, and Eleazar begot Matthan, and Matthan begot Jacob,
Eliud loh Eleazar a sak tih, Eleazar loh Matthan a sak, Matthan loh Jakob a sak,
16 and Jacob begot Joseph, the husband of Mary, of whom was begotten Jesus, who is named 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 [are] fourteen generations, and from David to the Babylonian removal fourteen generations, and from the Babylonian removal to 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 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,
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 and her husband Joseph being righteous, and not willing to make her an example, resolved to send her away privately.
A va Joseph tah aka duengla om tih anih te yan ham a ngaih pawt dongah toeng hamla duem cai.
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,
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 will bring forth a Son, and you will call His Name Jesus, for He will 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 And all this has come to pass, that it may be fulfilled that 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 will conceive, and she will bring forth a Son, and they will 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 And Joseph, having risen from sleep, did as the messenger of the LORD directed him, and received 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 did not know her until she brought forth her Son—the firstborn, and he called His Name Jesus.
Tedae capa a cun hil Mary te ming pawh. A ming te khaw Jesuh a sui.
