7 And Solomon begat Roboam; and Roboam begat Abia; and Abia begat Asa;

11 And Josias begat Jechonias and his brethren, about the time they were carried away to Babylon:

12 And after they were brought to Babylon, Jechonias begat Salathiel; and Salathiel begat Zorobabel;
Ni baada jha kutolibhwa kul'ota Babeli, Yekonia ajhele tata ghwa Shatieli, Shatieli ajhele kokho munu ni Zerubabeli.

Yakobo ajhele tata ghwa Yusufu n'gosi ghwa Mariamu, ambajhe kwa muene Yesu ahogoliki, j'haikutibhwa Kristu.
17 So all the generations from Abraham to David [are] fourteen generations; and from David until the carrying away into Babylon [are] fourteen generations; and from the carrying away into Babylon to Christ [are] fourteen generations.
Fizazi fyoha kuh'omela Ibrahimu hadi Daudi fyaj'hele fizazi kumi na nne, kuh'omela Daudi hadi kutolibhwa kulota Babeli fizazi kumi na nne, ni kuhomela kutolibhwa kulota Babeli hadi Kristu fizazi kumi na nne.
18 Now the birth of Jesus Christ was in this manner: When his mother Mary was espoused to Joseph, before they came together, she was found with child by the Holy Spirit.
Kuhogoleka kwa Yesu Kristu kwajhele namna e'j'he. Ndebhuake, Mariamu, achumbilibhu ni Yusufu, lakini kabla bhakhona kubhonana, abhonekene kujha nu luleme kwa ngofo sya Roho Mtakatifu.
19 Then Joseph her husband, being a just [man], and not willing to make her a public example, purposed to put her away privately.
Ngwanamunu Yusufu, aj'hele munu mwenye haki alondeghe lepi kun'haibisya hadharani. Aamuili kuleka uchumba bhwake kwa siri.
20 But while he thought on these things, the angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream, saying, Joseph, thou son of David, fear not to take to thee Mary thy wife: for that which is conceived in her is by the Holy Spirit.
Bho ifikirira juu j'ha mambo agha, Malaika ghwa Bwana an'hidili mu ndoto, ajobhili, “Yusufu muana ghwa Daudi, usilili kun'tola Mariamu kama n'dalabhu, kwa ndabha luleme lwaaj'henabhu ni kwa bhuweza bhwa Roho Mtakatifu.
21 And she shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt call his name JESUS: for he shall save his people from their sins.
Ibetakuhogola mwana ghwa n'gosi ni ghwibeta kun'kuta lihina lyake Yesu, kwa ndabha ibetakubhaokola bhanu bhake ni dhambi syabhene.”
22 Now all this was done, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken from the Lord by the prophet, saying,
Ghoha agha ghahomili kutimisibhwa k'hela kyaka nenebhu ni Bwana kwa nj'hela j'ha nabiii ajobhili,
23 Behold, a virgin shall be with child, and shall bring forth a son, and they shall call his name Emmanuel, which being interpreted is, God with us.
“Langai, bikira ibetakukabha luleme ni kuhogola muana n'gosi, na bhibetakun'kuta lihina lyake Imanueli”— maana ghiake, “K'yara pamonga natu.”
24 Then Joseph, being raised from sleep, did as the angel of the Lord had bidden him, and took to him his wife:
Yusufu aj'humuiki kuh'omela mulugono ni kubhomba kama malaika ghwa Bwana kyaan'jobhili na an'tolili kama n'dala.
25 And knew her not till she had brought forth her first-born son: and he called his name JESUS.
Hata nahu agonililepi naku mpaka bho akifunguili muana n'gosi ni kunkuta lihina lyake Yesu
