1 The book of the generation of Jesus Christ, the son of David, the son of Abraham.

6 and Jesse begat David the king. And David begat Solomon of her [that had been the wife] of Uriah;
Na Yese kamwiwuliti Mfalumi Dawudi na Dawudi kamwiwuliti Selemani mawu gwakuwi kaweriti mdala gwa Uriya,
7 and Solomon begat Rehoboam; and Rehoboam begat Abijah; and Abijah begat Asa;
Selemani kamwiwuliti Rehobowamu na Rehobowamu kamwiwuliti Abiya na Abiya kamwiwuliti Asa.
8 and Asa begat Jehoshaphat; and Jehoshaphat begat Joram; and Joram begat Uzziah;

9 and Uzziah begat Jotham; and Jotham begat Ahaz; and Ahaz begat Hezekiah;
na Uziya kamwiwuliti Yosamu na Yosamu kamwiwuliti Ahazi na Ahazi kamwiwuliti Hezekiya.
10 and Hezekiah begat Manasseh; and Manasseh begat Amon; and Amon begat Josiah;
Hezekiya kamwiwuliti Manasi na Manasi kamwiwuliti Amoni na Amoni kamwiwuliti Yosiya
11 and Josiah begat Jechoniah and his brethren, at the time of the carrying away to Babylon.
na Yosiya kamwiwuliti Yekoniya na walongu wakuwi. Ashi shiweriti shipindi Wayawudi pawawajegiti kugenda muluhamiru Babiloni.
12 And after the carrying away to Babylon, Jechoniah begat Shealtiel; and Shealtiel begat Zerubbabel;
Pa Wayawudi kuwatola kugenda muluhamiru Babiloni na Yekoniya kamwiwuliti Sheatiyeli na Sheatiyeli kamwiwuliti Zerubabeli,
13 and Zerubbabel begat Abiud; and Abiud begat Eliakim; and Eliakim begat Azor;

14 and Azor begat Sadoc; and Sadoc begat Achim; and Achim begat Eliud;

15 and Eliud begat Eleazar; and Eleazar begat Matthan; and Matthan begat Jacob;
Eliwudi kamwiwuliti Eleyazari na Eliyazari kamwiwuliti Matati na Matati kamwiwuliti Yakobu.
16 and Jacob begat Joseph the husband of Mary, of whom was born Jesus, who is called Christ.
Yakobu kamwiwuliti Yosefu, mpalu gwa Mariya mawu gwakuwi Yesu yawamshema Kristu.
17 So all the generations from Abraham unto David are fourteen generations; and from David unto the carrying away to Babylon fourteen generations; and from the carrying away to Babylon unto the Christ fourteen generations.
Su kuweriti na nyiwuku lilongu na msheshi kwanjira Aburahamu mpaka Dawudi na nyiwuku lilongu na msheshi kwanjira Dawudi mpaka Wayawudi pawawalopoliti kugenda Babiloni na nyiwuku lilongu na msheshi kwanjira pawawatoliti lopola mpaka shipindi sha Kristu.
18 Now the birth of Jesus Christ was on this wise: When his mother Mary had been betrothed to Joseph, before they came together she was found with child of the Holy Ghost.
Hangu ndo Yesu Kristu ntambu yakiwukiti, Mariya mawu gwakuwi Yesu kaweriti kahetitwi na Yosefu. Kumbiti pamberi pa kulikala pamuhera gambira mpalu na mdala, kawonikaniti kana yinda kwa uwezu wa Rohu Mnanagala.
19 And Joseph her husband, being a righteous man, and not willing to make her a public example, was minded to put her away privily.
Yosefu mpalu gwakuwi kaweriti kamfiriziya Mlungu, kafiriti ndiri kumlanguziya kwa wantu kuwera kana vidoda, Hangu kafiriti kumleka kwa bada.
20 But when he thought on these things, behold, an angel of the Lord appeared unto him in a dream, saying, Joseph, thou son of David, fear not to take unto thee Mary thy wife: for that which is conceived in her is of the Holy Ghost.
Pakaweriti kankali kankulihola hangu, ntumintumi gwa kumpindi gwa Mtuwa kamulawira mukulota na kumgambira, “Yosefu mwana gwa Dawudi, nagutira kumtola Mariya kaweri mdala gwaku. Mana kana yinda kwa uwezu wa Rohu Mnanagala.
21 And she shall bring forth a son; and thou shalt call his name JESUS; for it is he that shall save his people from their sins.
Hakamwiwuli mwana mpalu, nagwenga hagumshemi Yesu, toziya yomberi ndo hakawalopoziyi wantu kulawa muvidoda vyawu.”
22 Now all this is come to pass, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the Lord through the prophet, saying,
Vinu, vyoseri avi vilawira su viweri nakaka visoweru vyakatakuliti Mtuwa kupitira mbuyi gwa Mlungu,
23 Behold, the virgin shall be with child, and shall bring forth a son, And they shall call his name Immanuel; which is, being interpreted, God with us.
“Mwali hakaweri na yinda, hakamwiwuli mwana mpalu na womberi hawamshemi litawu lyakuwi Imanuweri.” Mana yakuwi, “Mlungu kapamuhera na twenga”.
24 And Joseph arose from his sleep, and did as the angel of the Lord commanded him, and took unto him his wife;
Su, Yosefu pakimkiti mumpota katenditi gambira vyakamgambiriti ulii ntumintumi gwa kumpindi gwa Mtuwa, kamtola mdala gwakuwi ukaya.
25 and knew her not till she had brought forth a son: and he called his name JESUS.
Kumbiti Yosefu waliwoniti ndiri na Mariya mpaka pakamwiwuliti mwana mpalu. Yosefu kamupananiti mwana litawu Yesu.
