Matthew 1
1 [The] scroll of the birth 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 begot Isaac, and Isaac begot Jacob, and Jacob begot Judah and his brothers,
Ibrahim ne en wuon Isaka, Isaka ne en wuon Jakobo, to Jakobo ne en wuon Juda gi owetene.
3 and Judah begot Perez and Zerah of Tamar, and Perez begot Hezron, and Hezron begot Ram,
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 Ram begot Amminadab, and Amminadab begot Nahshon, and Nahshon begot Salmon,
to Ram ne en wuon Aminadab. Aminadab ne en wuon Nashon, Nashon ne en wuon Salmon,
5 and Salmon begot Boaz of Rahab, and Boaz begot Obed of Ruth, and Obed begot 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 begot David the king. And David the king begot Solomon, of her [who had been] Uriah’s,
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 begot Rehoboam, and Rehoboam begot Abijah, and Abijah begot Asa,
Solomon ne en wuon Rehoboam, Rehoboam ne en wuon Abija, to Abija ne en wuon Asa.
8 and Asa begot Jehoshaphat, and Jehoshaphat begot Joram, and Joram begot Uzziah,
Asa ne en wuon Jehoshafat, Jehoshafat ne en wuon Jehoram, Jehoram ne en wuon Uzia,
9 and Uzziah begot Jotham, and Jotham begot Ahaz, and Ahaz begot Hezekiah,
to Uzia ne en wuon Jotham, Jotham ne en wuon Ahaz, Ahaz ne en wuon Hezekia,
10 and Hezekiah begot Manasseh, and Manasseh begot Amon, and Amon begot Josiah,
to Hezekia ne en wuon Manase. Manase ne en wuon Amon, Amon ne en wuon Josia,
11 and Josiah begot Jeconiah and his brothers, at the Babylonian removal.
kendo Josia ne en wuon Jekonia gi owetene, e kinde mag twech e piny Babulon.
12 And after the Babylonian removal, Jeconiah begot Shealtiel, and Shealtiel begot Zerubbabel,
Bangʼ twech e Babulon: Jekonia ne en wuon Shealtiel, Shealtiel ne en wuon Zerubabel,
13 and Zerubbabel begot Abiud, and Abiud begot Eliakim, and Eliakim begot Azor,
Zerubabel ne en wuon Abihud, to Abihud ne en wuon Eliakim. Eliakim ne en wuon Azor,
14 and Azor begot Sadok, and Sadok begot Achim, and Achim begot Eliud,
Azor ne en wuon Zadok, Zadok ne en wuon Akim, to Akim ne en wuon Eliud.
15 and Eliud begot Eleazar, and Eleazar begot Matthan, and Matthan begot Jacob,
Eliud ne en wuon Eleazar, Eleazar ne en wuon Mathan, Mathan ne en wuon Jakobo,
16 and Jacob begot Joseph, the husband of Mary, of whom was begotten Jesus, who is named 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 [are] fourteen generations, and from David to the Babylonian removal fourteen generations, and from the Babylonian removal to 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 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,
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 and her husband Joseph being righteous, and not willing to make her an example, resolved to send her away privately.
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 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,
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 will bring forth a Son, and you will call His Name Jesus, for He will save His people from their sins.”
Obiro nywolo wuowi, kendo nyaka imiye nying ni Yesu, nikech obiro waro joge kogolo e richo.”
22 And all this has come to pass, that it may be fulfilled that 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 will conceive, and she will bring forth a Son, and they will 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 And Joseph, having risen from sleep, did as the messenger of the LORD directed him, and received his wife,
Kane Josef ochiewo gokinyi, notimo gima malaika mar Ruoth nochike mondo otim, kendo nokawo Maria odhigo dala mobedo chiege.
25 and did not know her until she brought forth her Son—the firstborn, and he called His Name Jesus.
To ne ok oriwore kode nyaka bangʼ kane osenywolo nyathi ma wuowi kendo nomiye nying ni Yesu.
