Matthew 1
1 A roll of the birth of Jesus Christ, son of David, son of Abraham.
Ma e kaka anywola mar Yesu Kristo ma wuod Daudi kendo wuod Ibrahim chalo:
2 Abraham begat Isaac, and Isaac begat Jacob, and Jacob begat Judah and his brethren,
Ibrahim ne en wuon Isaka, Isaka ne en wuon Jakobo, to Jakobo ne en wuon Juda gi owetene.
3 and Judah begat Pharez and Zarah of Tamar, and Pharez begat Hezron, and Hezron begat Ram,

4 and Ram begat Amminadab, and Amminadab begat Nahshon, and Nahshon begat Salmon,
to Ram ne en wuon Aminadab. Aminadab ne en wuon Nashon, Nashon ne en wuon Salmon,
5 and Salmon begat Boaz of Rahab, and Boaz begat Obed of Ruth, and Obed begat Jesse,
Salmon ne en wuon Boaz, ma min-gi ne en Rahab. Boaz ne en wuon Obed ma min-gi ne en Ruth, Obed ne en wuon Jesse,
6 and Jesse begat David the king. And David the king begat Solomon, of her [who had been] Uriah's,
to Jesse ne en wuon Ruoth Daudi. Daudi ne en wuon Solomon, ma min-gi, kane pok Daudi okawe, ne en chi Uria,
7 and Solomon begat Rehoboam, and Rehoboam begat Abijah, and Abijah begat Asa,
Solomon ne en wuon Rehoboam, Rehoboam ne en wuon Abija, to Abija ne en wuon Asa.
8 and Asa begat Jehoshaphat, and Jehoshaphat begat Joram, and Joram begat Uzziah,
Asa ne en wuon Jehoshafat, Jehoshafat ne en wuon Jehoram, Jehoram ne en wuon Uzia,
9 and Uzziah begat Jotham, and Jotham begat Ahaz, and Ahaz begat Hezekiah,
to Uzia ne en wuon Jotham, Jotham ne en wuon Ahaz, Ahaz ne en wuon Hezekia,
10 and Hezekiah begat Manasseh, and Manasseh begat Amon, and Amon begat Josiah,
to Hezekia ne en wuon Manase. Manase ne en wuon Amon, Amon ne en wuon Josia,
11 and Josiah begat Jeconiah and his brethren, at the Babylonian removal.
kendo Josia ne en wuon Jekonia gi owetene, e kinde mag twech e piny Babulon.
12 And after the Babylonian removal, Jeconiah begat Shealtiel, and Shealtiel begat Zerubbabel,
Bangʼ twech e Babulon: Jekonia ne en wuon Shealtiel, Shealtiel ne en wuon Zerubabel,
13 and Zerubbabel begat Abiud, and Abiud begat Eliakim, and Eliakim begat Azor,
Zerubabel ne en wuon Abihud, to Abihud ne en wuon Eliakim. Eliakim ne en wuon Azor,
14 and Azor begat Sadok, and Sadok begat Achim, and Achim begat Eliud,
Azor ne en wuon Zadok, Zadok ne en wuon Akim, to Akim ne en wuon Eliud.
15 and Eliud begat Eleazar, and Eleazar begat Matthan, and Matthan begat Jacob,
Eliud ne en wuon Eleazar, Eleazar ne en wuon Mathan, Mathan ne en wuon Jakobo,
16 and Jacob begat Joseph, the husband of Mary, of whom was begotten Jesus, who is named Christ.
to Jakobo ne en wuon Josef mane chwor Maria mane onywolo Yesu, miluongo ni Kristo.
17 All the generations, therefore, from Abraham unto David [are] fourteen generations, and from David unto the Babylonian removal fourteen generations, and from the Babylonian removal unto the Christ, fourteen generations.
Kamano tienge duto mane nitie chakre Ibrahim nyaka Daudi ne gin apar gangʼwen; to chakre Daudi nyaka ndalo twech e Babulon ne tienge apar gangʼwen kendo chakre ndalo twech nyaka kinde mag Kristo bende ne tienge apar gangʼwen.
18 And of Jesus Christ, the birth was thus: For his mother Mary having been betrothed to Joseph, before their coming together she was found to have conceived from the Holy Spirit,
Kama e kaka nywol mar Yesu Kristo notimore: Noyudo min mare ma Maria osesingi ne Josef mondo okende, to kane pok gibedo kaachiel, noyude ka en gi ich kuom Roho Maler.
19 and Joseph her husband being righteous, and not willing to make her an example, did wish privately to send her away.
Nikech Josef chwore ne en ngʼat makare, kendo ne ok odwar ni okuod wiye e nyim ji, omiyo nochano e pache mar weye ma lingʼ-lingʼ.
20 And on his thinking of these things, lo, a messenger of the Lord in a dream appeared to him, saying, 'Joseph, son of David, thou mayest not fear to receive Mary thy wife, for that which in her was begotten [is] of the Holy Spirit,
To bangʼ paro mar timo kamano, Malaika mar Ruoth nofwenyorene e lek mowachone niya, “Josef wuod Daudi, kik iluor dhi gi Maria dala kaka chiegi, nikech gima otingʼo e iye owuok kuom Roho Maler.
21 and she shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt call his name Jesus, for he shall save his people from their sins.'
Obiro nywolo wuowi, kendo nyaka imiye nying ni Yesu, nikech obiro waro joge kogolo e richo.”
22 And all this hath come to pass, that it may be fulfilled that was spoken by the Lord through the prophet, saying,
Magi duto notimore mondo ochop gima ne Ruoth owacho gi dho janabi niya,
23 'Lo, the virgin shall conceive, and she shall bring forth a son, and they shall call his name Emmanuel,' which is, being interpreted 'With us [he is] God.'
“Nyako ngili biro mako ich minywol wuowi, mi nigiluonge ni Imanuel” (tiende ni, “Nyasaye ni kodwa”).
24 And Joseph, having risen from the sleep, did as the messenger of the Lord directed him, and received his wife,
Kane Josef ochiewo gokinyi, notimo gima malaika mar Ruoth nochike mondo otim, kendo nokawo Maria odhigo dala mobedo chiege.
25 and did not know her till she brought forth her son — the first-born, and he called his name Jesus.
To ne ok oriwore kode nyaka bangʼ kane osenywolo nyathi ma wuowi kendo nomiye nying ni Yesu.
