6 Jesse became the father of King David. David the king became the father of Solomon by her who had been Uriah’s wife.

7 Solomon became the father of Rehoboam. Rehoboam became the father of Abijah. Abijah became the father of Asa.

8 Asa became the father of Jehoshaphat. Jehoshaphat became the father of Joram. Joram became the father of Uzziah.
Asa te fè Josaphat, e pa Josaphat, Joram. Pa Joram, Ozias;
9 Uzziah became the father of Jotham. Jotham became the father of Ahaz. Ahaz became the father of Hezekiah.
Pou Ozias te fèt Jotham; e a Jotham, Achaz; a Achaz, Ézéchias;
10 Hezekiah became the father of Manasseh. Manasseh became the father of Amon. Amon became the father of Josiah.
epi pa Ézéchias te fèt Manassé; e a Manassé, Amon; e pa Amon Josias;
11 Josiah became the father of Jechoniah and his brothers at the time of the exile to Babylon.
Josias te fè Jéchonias ak frè li yo nan tan depòtasyon Babylone nan.
12 After the exile to Babylon, Jechoniah became the father of Shealtiel. Shealtiel became the father of Zerubbabel.
Aprè depòtasyon Babylone nan, Jéchonias te fè Salathiel; e pa Salathiel, Zorobabel.

16 Jacob became the father of Joseph, the husband of Mary, from whom was born Jesus, who is called Christ.
Jacob te fè Joseph, mari a Marie a, manman a Jésus ke yo rele Kris la.
17 So all the generations from Abraham to David are fourteen generations; from David to the exile to Babylon fourteen generations; and from the carrying away to Babylon to the Christ, fourteen generations.
Konsa, tout jenerasyon yo soti nan Abraham jiska David se katòz jenerasyon epi kite David pou rive nan depòtasyon Babylone nan, se katòz jenerasyon. E poukite depòtasyon Babylone nan pou rive a Kris La, se katòz jenerasyon.
18 Now the birth of Jesus Christ was like this: After his mother, Mary, was engaged to Joseph, before they came together, she was found pregnant by the Holy Spirit.
Nesans a Jésus, Kris la te fèt konsa: Lè manman Li, Marie, te fiyanse ak Joseph, avan ke yo te vini ansanm, li te twouve ansent pa Lespri Sen an.
19 Joseph, her husband, being a righteous man, and not willing to make her a public example, intended to put her away secretly.
Konsa, Joseph, mari li, ki te yon nonm dwat, pa t vle fè l wont. Pou sa a, li te pran desizyon pou mete l sou kote an sekrè.
20 But when he thought about these things, behold, an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream, saying, “Joseph, son of David, don’t be afraid to take to yourself Mary as your wife, for that which is conceived in her is of the Holy Spirit.
Men pandan li t ap anvizaje sa, konsa, yon zanj Bondye te parèt devan li nan yon rèv epi te di l konsa: “Joseph, fis a David la, ou pa bezwen pè pran Marie kon madanm ou; pwiske sa ki gen tan plase nan vant li an, soti nan Lespri Sen an.
21 She shall give birth to a son. You shall name him Jesus, for it is he who shall save his people from their sins.”
Li va fè yon fis, epi ou va rele li Jésus paske se Li menm ki va sove pèp li a de peche yo.”
22 Now all this has happened that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the Lord through the prophet, saying,
Tout sa te fèt pou akonpli sa ki te pale pa Senyè a, atravè pwofèt yo;
23 “Behold, the virgin shall be with child, and shall give birth to a son. They shall call his name Immanuel,” which is, being interpreted, “God with us.”
“Koute byen, vyèj la va vin ansent e l ap fè yon gason. Y ap nonmen li Emmanuel”, ki tradwi vle di “Bondye Avèk Nou”.
24 Joseph arose from his sleep, and did as the angel of the Lord commanded him, and took his wife to himself;
Konsa, Joseph te leve nan dòmi. Li te fè sa ke zanj Senyè a te mande l fè a, e te pran li pou madanm li.
25 and didn’t know her sexually until she had given birth to her firstborn son. He named him Jesus.
Li te kenbe l kon yon vyèj jiskaske li te fin fè gason an, epi li te rele li Jésus.
