17 [As you can calculate, I have grouped Jesus’] ancestors [as follows: ] There was [a succession of] 14 of them from [the time when] Abraham [lived] to [the time when King] David [lived]. There was [a succession of] 14 of them from [the time when] David [lived] to [the time when] the [Israelites were taken] {[the Babylonian army took the Israelites]} away to Babylon. There was [a succession of] 14 of them from [the time when the Israelites were taken] {[the Babylonian army took the Israelites]} away to Babylon until [the time when] the Messiah [was born].
Haddaba abtirsiinyada oo dhan oo Ibraahim ilaa Daa'uud waa afar iyo toban oday, Daa'uud ilaa waagii Baabuloon loo kaxeeyeyna waa afar iyo toban oday, waagii Baabuloon loo kaxeeyey ilaa Masiixana waa afar iyo toban oday.
18 This is [the account of what happened just before] Jesus Christ was born. Mary, his mother, {had publicly promised Joseph that she would marry him} had been publicly promised to marry Joseph. Before they began to sleep together, [Mary] realized that she was pregnant. [It was the power of] the Holy Spirit that had caused her to become pregnant.
Dhalashadii Ciise Masiix sidanay ahayd. Kolkii hooyadiis Maryan u doonanayd Yuusuf, intaanay isu iman, waxaa la arkay iyadoo Ruuxa Quduuskaa ka uuraysatay.
19 Joseph, her [future] husband, was a man who obeyed God’s commands. [One of those commands was that men must divorce women who had acted immorally. So when Joseph learned that Mary was pregnant, he assumed that she was pregnant as a result of her acting immorally]. So he decided to break the engagement. But because he did not want to shame her publicly, he decided to do it privately.
Ninkeedii Yuusuf wuxuu ahaa nin xaq ah oo aan doonayn inuu dadka tuso, wuxuuse doonayay inuu si qarsoon u eryo.
20 While he was seriously considering this, much to his surprise, in a dream he saw an angel whom the Lord [had sent]. The angel said, “Joseph, descendant of [King] David, do not be afraid that [you(sg) would be doing wrong if you(sg) would marry] Mary. Instead, [begin to treat her] as your wife, because the Holy Spirit, [not a man], has caused her to be pregnant.
Laakiin intuu waxan ka fiirsanayay ayaa malaa'igtii Rabbigu riyo ugu muuqatay, iyadoo leh, Yuusuf ina Daa'uudow, ha ka baqin inaad naagtaada Maryan qaadatid, waayo, waxa ay uuraysatay ayaa Ruuxa Quduuskaa ka yimid.
21 She will give birth to a son. Since it is he who will cause that his people will be saved from [the guilt of] their having sinned, name [the baby] Jesus, [which means ‘the Lord saves people’].”
Oo waxay umuli doontaa wiil, magiciisana waxaad u bixin doontaa Ciise, waayo, dadkiisa ayuu dembiyadooda ka badbaadin doonaa.
22 All this happened as a result of what the Lord told the prophet [Isaiah to write long ago about what was going to happen]. This is what Isaiah wrote:
Waxaas oo dhan waxay u dhaceen in la arko wixii Rabbigu kaga dhex hadlay nebiga, isagoo leh,
23 “Listen, a virgin will become pregnant and will give birth to a son. They will call him Emmanuel.” Emmanuel means ‘God is with us’.
Gabadh bikrad ah baa uuraysan doonta oo wiil umuli doonta, Magiciisana waxaa loo bixin doonaa, Cimmaanuu'eel; kan micnihiisu yahay, Ilaah baa inala jooga.
24 When Joseph got up from sleep, he did what the angel whom the Lord [had sent] commanded him to do. He took [Mary] home to be his wife.
Markaasaa Yuusuf hurdadii ka kacay oo yeelay sidii malaa'igtii Rabbigu ku amartay, oo naagtiisii ayuu qaatay;
25 But he did not have sexual relations with her until she had given birth to a son. And [Joseph] named him Jesus.
uma uuse tegin iyada ilaa ay wiil umushay, oo wuxuu magiciisa u baxshay Ciise.
