< Matthew 1 >

1 A record of the genealogy of Jesus Christ, the son of David, the son of Abraham.
Ma e kaka anywola mar Yesu Kristo ma wuod Daudi kendo wuod Ibrahim chalo:
2 Abraham was the father of Isaac, and Isaac the father of Jacob, and Jacob the father of 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 was the father of Perez and Zerah by Tamar, and Perez was the father of Hezron, and Hezron the father of 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 the father of Amminadab, and Amminadab the father of Nahshon, and Nahshon the father of Salmon,
to Ram ne en wuon Aminadab. Aminadab ne en wuon Nashon, Nashon ne en wuon Salmon,
5 and Salmon the father of Boaz by Rahab, and Boaz was the father of Obed by Ruth, and Obed was the father of 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 the father of David the king. And David was the father of Solomon by her who had been the wife of Uriah;
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 was the father of Rehoboam, and Rehoboam the father of Abijah, and Abijah the father of Asa;
Solomon ne en wuon Rehoboam, Rehoboam ne en wuon Abija, to Abija ne en wuon Asa.
8 and Asa the father of Jehoshaphat, and Jehoshaphat the father of Joram, and Joram the father of Uzziah,
Asa ne en wuon Jehoshafat, Jehoshafat ne en wuon Jehoram, Jehoram ne en wuon Uzia,
9 and Uzziah the father of Jotham, and Jotham the father of Ahaz, and Ahaz the father of Hezekiah;
to Uzia ne en wuon Jotham, Jotham ne en wuon Ahaz, Ahaz ne en wuon Hezekia,
10 and Hezekiah the father of Manasseh, and Manasseh the father of Amon, and Amon the father of Josiah,
to Hezekia ne en wuon Manase. Manase ne en wuon Amon, Amon ne en wuon Josia,
11 and Josiah the father of Jechoniah and his brothers, at the time of the exile to Babylon.
kendo Josia ne en wuon Jekonia gi owetene, e kinde mag twech e piny Babulon.
12 And after the exile to Babylon, Jechoniah was the father of Shealtiel, and Shealtiel the father of Zerubbabel,
Bangʼ twech e Babulon: Jekonia ne en wuon Shealtiel, Shealtiel ne en wuon Zerubabel,
13 and Zerubbabel the father of Abihud, and Abihud the father of Eliakim, and Eliakim the father of Azzur,
Zerubabel ne en wuon Abihud, to Abihud ne en wuon Eliakim. Eliakim ne en wuon Azor,
14 and Azzur the father of Zadok, and Zadok the father of Ahiam, and Ahiam the father of Elihud,
Azor ne en wuon Zadok, Zadok ne en wuon Akim, to Akim ne en wuon Eliud.
15 and Elihud the father of Eleazar, and Eleazar the father of Matthan, and Matthan the father of Jacob,
Eliud ne en wuon Eleazar, Eleazar ne en wuon Mathan, Mathan ne en wuon Jakobo,
16 and Jacob the father of Joseph, the husband of Mary, from whom was born Jesus, who is called the Christ.
to Jakobo ne en wuon Josef mane chwor Maria mane onywolo Yesu, miluongo ni Kristo.
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 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 Now the birth of Jesus Christ 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.
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 Joseph, her husband, being a righteous man, and not willing to make her a public example, intended to put her away secretly.
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 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.
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 are to name him 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 Now all this has happened, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the Lord through the prophet, saying,
Magi duto notimore mondo ochop gima ne Ruoth owacho gi dho janabi niya,
23 "Look, the virgin will conceive and bear a son, and they will call his name Immanuel;" which is translated, "God with us."
“Nyako ngili biro mako ich minywol wuowi, mi nigiluonge ni Imanuel” (tiende ni, “Nyasaye ni kodwa”).
24 And Joseph arose from his sleep, and did as the angel of the Lord commanded him, and took his wife to himself;
Kane Josef ochiewo gokinyi, notimo gima malaika mar Ruoth nochike mondo otim, kendo nokawo Maria odhigo dala mobedo chiege.
25 and had no marital relations with her until she had brought forth a son; and he named him Jesus.
To ne ok oriwore kode nyaka bangʼ kane osenywolo nyathi ma wuowi kendo nomiye nying ni Yesu.
