11 Josiah became the father of Jechoniah and his brothers at the time of the exile to Babylon.

16 Jacob became the father of Joseph, the husband of Mary, from whom was born Jesus, who is called Christ.
Jakop capa, Meri e a vâ Joseph, Khrih tie Jisuh teh Meri koehoi a khe.
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.
Abraham koehoi Devit totouh a se hlaipali, Devit koehoi Babilon kho lah a kampuen awh totouh a se hlaipali, Babilon kho lah a kampuen awh hoi Khrih totouh a se hlaipali touh a pha.
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.
Jisuh Khrih a khenae teh, hettelah ao. A manu Meri teh Joseph yu lah pacei lah ao navah tak cungtalah a hmawng roi hoehnahlan,
19 Joseph, her husband, being a righteous man, and not willing to make her a public example, intended to put her away secretly.
Kathoung Muitha e camo teh a vawn toe. A vâ Joseph teh tamikalan lah ao dawkvah, Meri kaya sak hane a ngai hoeh dawkvah, arulahoi ma hanlah a kâcai.
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.
Hottelah a kâcai navah, a manglah Bawipa e kalvantami, ahni koe a kamnue pouh teh, Devit capa Joseph, na yu Meri paluen hane hah na lungpuen hanh, atu e a vawn e camo teh Kathoung Muitha lahoi doeh a vawn.
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.”
Ahni ni Ca tongpa a khe vaiteh, Jisuh telah na phung han. Bangkongtetpawiteh, a taminaw yon thung hoi a rungngang han dawkvah atipouh.
22 Now all this has happened that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the Lord through the prophet, saying,
Hete akong teh Bawipa ni profetnaw hno lahoi sutdeilawk akuep nahane doeh.
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.”
Sutdeilawk teh, Khenhaw! tanglakacuem ni vawn vaiteh ca tongpa a khe han. A min teh Emmanuel telah a phung han. Emmanuel tie teh Cathut maimouh koe ao tinae doeh.
24 Joseph arose from his sleep, and did as the angel of the Lord commanded him, and took his wife to himself;
Joseph a kâhlaw teh, Cathut e kalvantami ni lawk a poe e patetlah a yu teh a paluen.
25 and didn’t know her sexually until she had given birth to her firstborn son. He named him Jesus.
Hatei, camin a khe hoehroukrak tak cungtalah hmawngkhai hoeh. Hote capa hah Jisuh telah a phung.
