< Matthew 1 >
1 A record of the genealogy of Yeshua the Messiah, the son of David, the son of Abraham.

9 and Uzziah the father of Jotham, and Jotham the father of Ahaz, and Ahaz the father of Hezekiah;
nake Uzia aarĩ ithe wa Jothamu, nake Jothamu aarĩ ithe wa Ahazu, nake Ahazu aarĩ ithe wa Hezekia,
10 and Hezekiah the father of Manasseh, and Manasseh the father of Amon, and Amon the father of Josiah,
nake Hezekia aarĩ ithe wa Manase, nake Manase aarĩ ithe wa Amoni, nake Amoni aarĩ ithe wa Josia,
11 and Josiah the father of Jechoniah and his brothers, at the time of the exile to Babylon.
nake Josia aarĩ ithe wa Jekonia na ariũ a ithe, hĩndĩ ĩrĩa andũ maatahirwo, magĩtwarwo Babuloni.
12 And after the exile to Babylon, Jechoniah was the father of Shealtiel, and Shealtiel the father of Zerubbabel,
Thuutha wa gũtahwo, magĩtwarwo kũu Babuloni: Jekonia aarĩ ithe wa Shealitieli, nake Shealitieli aarĩ ithe wa Zerubabeli,
13 and Zerubbabel the father of Abihud, and Abihud the father of Eliakim, and Eliakim the father of Azzur,
nake Zerubabeli aarĩ ithe wa Abihudu, nake Abihudu aarĩ ithe wa Eliakimu, nake Eliakimu aarĩ ithe wa Azoro,
14 and Azzur the father of Zadok, and Zadok the father of Ahiam, and Ahiam the father of Elihud,
nake Azoro aarĩ ithe wa Zadoku, nake Zadoku aarĩ ithe wa Akimu, nake Akimu aarĩ ithe wa Eliudi,

16 and Jacob the father of Joseph, the husband of Miriam, from whom was born Yeshua, who is called the Messiah.
nake Jakubu aarĩ ithe wa Jusufu, mũthuuri wa Mariamu, ũrĩa waciarire Jesũ, ũrĩa wĩtagwo Kristũ.
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.
Ũguo nĩ kuuga njiaro ciothe ciarĩ ikũmi na inya kuuma Iburahĩmu nginya Daudi, na njiaro ikũmi na inya kuuma Daudi nginya hĩndĩ ĩrĩa andũ maatahirwo magĩtwarwo kũu Babuloni, na ningĩ njiaro ikũmi na inya kuuma hĩndĩ ĩrĩa andũ maatahirwo nginya hĩndĩ ya Kristũ.
18 Now the birth of Yeshua the Messiah happened like this. His mother Miriam had been engaged to Joseph, and before they came together, she was found to be with child from the Ruach ha-Kodesh.
Ũhoro wa gũciarwo kwa Jesũ Kristũ watariĩ ũũ: Nyina Mariamu nĩ oorĩtio nĩ Jusufu atuĩke mũtumia wake, no matanaikarania-rĩ, nĩamenyekire atĩ arĩ na nda ya Roho Mũtheru.
19 And Joseph, her husband, being a righteous man, and not willing to make her a public example, intended to put her away secretly.
Nake Jusufu mũthuuri wake tondũ aarĩ mũndũ mũthingu na ndangĩendire kũmũconorithia kũrĩ andũ, agĩĩciiria amũtige na hitho.
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 Miriam, your wife, for that which is conceived in her is of the Ruach ha-Kodesh.
No thuutha wa gwĩciiria ũndũ ũcio, mũraika wa Mwathani akĩmuumĩrĩra kĩroto-inĩ, akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Jusufu, mũrũ wa Daudi, ndũkae gwĩtigĩra kũhikia Mariamu atuĩke mũtumia waku, tondũ nda ĩyo arĩ nayo nĩ ya Roho Mũtheru.
21 And she will bring forth a son, and you are to name him Yeshua, for he will save his people from their sins."
Nĩagaciara kahĩĩ, nawe nĩũgagatua Jesũ, tondũ nĩwe ũkaahonokia andũ ake kuuma mehia-inĩ mao.”
22 Now all this has happened, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the Lord through the prophet, saying,
Na rĩrĩ, maũndũ macio mothe meekĩkire nĩguo ũrĩa Mwathani aarĩtie na kanua ka mũnabii ũhinge, rĩrĩa oigire atĩrĩ,
23 "Look, the virgin will conceive and bear a son, and they will call his name Immanuel;" which is translated, "God with us."
“Mũirĩtu gathirange nĩakagĩa nda na nĩagaciara kahĩĩ, nao magaagatua Imanueli” ũguo naguo ũgĩtaũrwo nĩ kuuga, “Ngai hamwe na ithuĩ.”
24 And Joseph arose from his sleep, and did as the angel of the Lord commanded him, and took his wife to himself;
Rĩrĩa Jusufu ookĩrire, agĩĩka o ta ũrĩa mũraika wa Mwathani aamwathĩte, nake akĩinũkia Mariamu gwake mũciĩ, agĩtuĩka mũtumia wake.
25 and had no marital relations with her until she had brought forth a son; and he named him Yeshua.
No matiigana kũmenyana nginya rĩrĩa aaciarire mwana ũcio wa kahĩĩ. Nake Jusufu agĩtua mwana ũcio Jesũ.
