6 And Jesse begat David the King. And David begat Solomon of her [that had been the wife] of Uriah;

7 And Solomon begat Rehoboam, and Rehoboam begat Abijah, and Abijah begat Asa;

8 And Asa begat Jehoshaphat, and Jehoshaphat begat Joram, and Joram begat Uzziah;
Asa abile tate ba Yehishafati tate ba Yoramu, ni Yoramu tate ba Uzia.
9 And Uzziah begat Jotham, and Jotham begat Ahaz, and Ahaz begat Hezekiah:
Uzia abile tate ba Yothamu, Yothamu tate ba Ahazi, Ahazi tate ba Hezekia.
10 And Hezekiah begat Manasseh, and Manasseh begat Amon, and Amon begat Josiah;
Hezekia abile tate ba Manase, Manase baba ba Amoni ni Amoni tate ba Yosia.
11 And Josiah begat Jechoniah, and his brethren, —upon the removal to Babylon.
Yosia abile tate ba Yekonia ni kaka bake wakati pabatolilwe yenda Babeli.
12 And, after the removal to Babylon, Jechoniah begat Shealtiel, and Shealtiel begat Zerubbabel;
Ni baada ya tolelwa yenda Babeli, Yekonia abile tate ba Shatieli abile babu bake ni Zarubabeli.
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; —
Eliudi abile tate ba Eliaza, Eliaza tate ba Matani ni Matani tate ba Yakobo.
16 And Jacob begat Joseph, the husband of Mary, of whom was born Jesus, —who is called Christ.
Yakobo abile tate ba Yusufu nsengo wa Mariamu, ambaye kwa Yembe Yesu abelekilwe, ywa kemwa Kristo.
17 So then, all the generations from Abraham unto David, are, fourteen, generations, and, from David unto the removal to Babylon, fourteen, generations; and, from the removal to Babylon unto the Christ, fourteen, generations.
Ibelei yoti tangu Ibrahimu hadi Daudi yabile ibelei komi ni ncheche, kuoma Daudi hadi kutoliwa yenda Babeli ibelei komi ni ncheche, ni kuoma kutoliwa yenda Babeli mpaka Kristo yabile ibelei komi ni ncheche.
18 Now the birth, of [Jesus] Christ, was, thus: His mother Mary having been betrothed to Joseph, —before they came together, she was found with child by [the] Holy Spirit.
Belekwa kwa Yesu Kristo kwabile nyonyo, Mao bake, Mariamu, achumbilwe ni Yusufu, lakini babi bado gonja pamope, abonekine kubi ni ndumbo kwa uwezo ba Roho mtakatifu.
19 Moreover, Joseph her husband, being, righteous, and yet unwilling to expose her, —intended, privately, to divorce her.
Nchengo bake, Yusufu, abile mundu wa Nnongo apendi kwaa kumpeya oni. Amweni anneka kwa siri.
20 But, when, these things, he had pondered, lo! a messenger of the Lord, by dream, appeared to him, saying, —Joseph, son of David! do not fear to take unto thee Mary thy wife, for, that which, in her, hath been begotten, is of [the], Holy, Spirit.
Pabilekagawaza kunani makowe ago, Malaika ba Ngwana ampili mundoto, kakoya, “Yusufu mwana wa Daudi, kana uyogope kuntola Mariamu kuba nnyumbo bako, kwa sababu ndumbo abi nayo ni kwa uweza wa Roho mtakatifu.
21 Moreover she shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt call his name Jesus, —for, he, will save his people from their sins.
Alowa beleka mwana nnalome ni walowa kunkema lina lyake Yesu, kati apala kubalopwa bandu bake kuoma musambi zabe.”
22 But, all this, hath come to pass, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the Lord, through the prophet, saying:
Ngoti yega yapitike kamirisha chelo sabakilwe kwa ndela ya manabii, kakoya,
23 Lo! a Virgin, shall be with child, and shall bring forth a son, —and they shall call his name Emmanuel; which is, being translated, God with us.
Lola, bikira apatola ndumbo ni beleka mwana nnalome, ni akemwa lina lyake Imanueli maana yake, “Nnongo pamope natwenga.”
24 And Joseph, awaking, from his sleep, did as the messenger of the Lord directed him, —and took unto him his wife;
Yusufu atiyumuka kuoma mulugono ni panga kati malaika wa Ngwana akoite nga atikumpotwa kati nnyumbo bake.
25 and knew her not, until she had brought forth a son, —and he called his name Jesus.
Palyo, agonjike kwaa nakwe mpaka paapapite mwana wake nnalome akemilwe lina lyake Yesu.
