17 So all the generations from Avraham to Dawid are fourteen generations; and from Dawid to the exile to Babylon fourteen generations; and from the exile to Babylon to the Meshikha, fourteen generations.
Tse ke ditshika di le lesome le metso e le mene mo ditshikeng tse di simololang ka Aberahame go tla go fitlha mo go Kgosi Dafide; le tse di lesome le bone go simolola ka nako ya ga Kgosi Dafide go ya nakong ya go gapelwa kwa Babelona; le tse di lesome le bone go simolola ka nako eo go tla go fitlha mo go Keresete.
18 Now the birth of Yeshua Meshikha happened like this. His mother Maryam had been engaged to Yauseph, and before they came together, she was found to be with child from the Rukha d'Qudsha.
A ke mabaka a boammaaruri a a amanang le botsalo jwa ga Jesu Keresete: Marea mmaagwe, o ne a beeletswe go nyalwa ke Josefa. Mme ya re a sa ntse a le kgarebana, a ithwala ga Mowa o o boitshepo.
19 And Yauseph, her husband, being a righteous man, and not willing to make her a public example, intended to put her away secretly.
Mme Josefa mmeeledi wa gagwe ka a le mosiami, a ikaelela go senya tsholofetso ka tidimalo ka a ne a sa rate go mmaa mo mpepeneneng go mo tlhabisa ditlhong.
20 But when he thought about these things, look, an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream, saying, "Yauseph, son of Dawid, do not be afraid to take to yourself Maryam, your wife, for that which is conceived in her is of the Rukha d'Qudsha.
Mme ya re a sa ntse a thantse a akanya ka ga selo se, a thulamela, a lora, mme a bona moengele a eme fa go ene a mo raya a re, “Josefa, morwa Dafide, se etsaetsege go tsaya Marea jaaka mosadi wa gago ka gore ngwana yo o mo rweleng o mo ithwele ka Mowa o o Boitshepo.”
21 And she will bring forth a son, and you are to name him Yeshua, for he will save his people from their sins."
Mme o tlaa tshola ngwana wa mosimane, mme o tlaa mo raya leina o re Jesu (Ke gore “Mmoloki”). Ka gore o tlaa golola batho ba gagwe mo dibeng tsa bone.
22 Now all this has happened, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the Lord through the prophet, saying,
Mo go tlaa diragatsa molaetsa wa Modimo o o kileng wa anamisiwa ke baporofiti ba one, ba re,
23 "Look, the virgin will conceive and bear a son, and they will call his name Amanuil;" which is translated, "God with us."
“Reetsang! Kgarebana e tlaa ithwala ngwana! E tlaa tshola ngwana wa mosimane, mme o tlaa bidiwa ‘Imanuele’.” (Ke gore “Modimo o na le rona”) fa go tlhalosiwa.
24 And Yauseph arose from his sleep, and did as the angel of the Lord commanded him, and took his wife to himself;
Erile Josefa a tsoga, a dira jaaka moengele a mo laetse, a isa Maria gae go nna mosadi wa gagwe.
25 and had no marital relations with her until she had brought forth a son; and he named him Yeshua.
Mme a nna a ntse a le kgarebana go fitlhelela morwawe a tsholwa mme Josefa a mo raya leina a re “Jesu.”
