17 So all the generations from Abraham to David are fourteen generations; and from David to the exile to Babylon fourteen generations; and from the exile to Babylon to the Messiah, fourteen generations.
Woonse mazyalani kuzwa kuli Abbulahamu kusika kuli Devidi akali mazyalane ali ikkumi aane, kuzwa kuli Devidi kusika kukulonzegwa kwabo kutolwa ku Bbabiloni mazyalane ali ikkumi aane, alimwi kuzwa kukulonzegwa kutolwa ku Bbabbiloni kusikila kuli Kkilisito mazyalane ali kkumi aane.
18 Now the birth of Jesus (the) Messiah happened like this. His mother Mary had been engaged to Joseph, and before they came together, she was found to be with child from the Holy Spirit.
Kuzyalwa kwa Jesu Kkilisito kwaka chitika munzila itobela. Banyina, Meli bakatangilwakuti bakwatwe a Jozefu, pesi kabatana kuswanana, wakajanika kuti wakali mintide kumuuya uusalala.
19 And Joseph, her husband, being a righteous man, and not willing to make her a public example, intended to put her away secretly.
Pesi Jozefu, mulumi wakwe, wakali mwalumi ululeme alimwi tewakayanda kumufwisya bweeme pe chaantanganana, aboobo wakayeya kumuleka chuumunizi akusiya chizuminano chabo.
20 But when he thought about these things, look, an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream, saying, "Joseph, son of David, do not be afraid to take to yourself Mary, your wife, for that which is conceived in her is of the Holy Spirit.
Awo mpakali kuyeeya ezi zintu, mungelo wa Mwami wakaboneka kulinguwe muchiloto, waamba kuti, “Jozefu mwana wa Devidi, utayowi pe kubweza Meli kuti abe mwanakazi wako, nkambo oyo umintidwe mulinguwe umintidwe a Muuya Uusalala.
21 And she will bring forth a son, and you are to name him Jesus, for he will save his people from their sins."
Uyozyala mwana mulombe, alimwi uyomuzika izina lyakuti ngu Jesu, nkambo uyofutula bantu bakwe kuzwa kuzibi zyabo.”
22 Now all this has happened, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the Lord through the prophet, saying,
Zyonseezi zyakachitika kuzuzikizya zyakaambwa a Mwami kwinda kubasinsiimi, wamba wati,
23 "Look, the virgin will conceive and bear a son, and they will call his name Immanuel;" which is translated, "God with us."
“Amubone, ooyo musimbi uzominta uzotumbuka mwana mulombe, mpawo izina lyakwe bazomuzika kuti ngu Imanuwele” - elyo lipandululwa kutegwa, “Leza ulandiswe.
24 And Joseph arose from his sleep, and did as the angel of the Lord commanded him, and took his wife to himself;
Jozefu wakabuka kuzwa kukoona kwakwe wachita mbuli mungelo wa Mwami mbakamulayilila, mpawo wakamubweza waba mwanakazi wakwe.
25 and had no marital relations with her until she had brought forth a son; and he named him Jesus.
Pesi takwepe nakamuziba kusika watumbuka mwana mulombe. Elyo wakamuzika izina kuti ngu Jesu.
