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.
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 Joseph, her husband, being a righteous man, and not willing to make her a public example, intended to put her away secretly.
Nchengo bake, Yusufu, abile mundu wa Nnongo apendi kwaa kumpeya oni. Amweni anneka kwa siri.
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.
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 She shall give birth to a son. You shall name him Jesus, for it is he who shall 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 Now all this has happened 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 “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.”
Lola, bikira apatola ndumbo ni beleka mwana nnalome, ni akemwa lina lyake Imanueli maana yake, “Nnongo pamope natwenga.”
24 Joseph arose from his sleep, and did as the angel of the Lord commanded him, and took his wife to himself;
Yusufu atiyumuka kuoma mulugono ni panga kati malaika wa Ngwana akoite nga atikumpotwa kati nnyumbo bake.
25 and didn’t know her sexually until she had given birth to her firstborn son. He named him Jesus.
Palyo, agonjike kwaa nakwe mpaka paapapite mwana wake nnalome akemilwe lina lyake Yesu.
