12 Thuutha wa gũtahwo, magĩtwarwo kũu Babuloni: Jekonia aarĩ ithe wa Shealitieli, nake Shealitieli aarĩ ithe wa Zerubabeli,

17 Ũguo nĩ kuuga njiaro ciothe ciarĩ ikũmi na inya kuuma Iburahĩmu nginya Daudi, na njiaro ikũmi na inya kuuma Daudi nginya hĩndĩ ĩrĩa andũ maatahirwo magĩtwarwo kũu Babuloni, na ningĩ njiaro ikũmi na inya kuuma hĩndĩ ĩrĩa andũ maatahirwo nginya hĩndĩ ya Kristũ.
So all the generations from Abraham [Father of a multitude] to David [Beloved] are fourteen generations; from David [Beloved] to the exile to Babylon [Confusion] fourteen generations; and from the carrying away to Babylon [Confusion] to the Messiah [Anointed one], fourteen generations.
18 Ũhoro wa gũciarwo kwa Jesũ Kristũ watariĩ ũũ: Nyina Mariamu nĩ oorĩtio nĩ Jusufu atuĩke mũtumia wake, no matanaikarania-rĩ, nĩamenyekire atĩ arĩ na nda ya Roho Mũtheru.
Now the birth of Yeshua Messiah [Salvation Anointed one] was like this; for after his mother, Mary [Rebellion], was engaged to Joseph [May he add], before they came together, she was found pregnant by Ruach haKodesh [Spirit, Breath of the Holiness].
19 Nake Jusufu mũthuuri wake tondũ aarĩ mũndũ mũthingu na ndangĩendire kũmũconorithia kũrĩ andũ, agĩĩciiria amũtige na hitho.
Joseph [May he add], her husband, being a upright man, and not willing to make her a public example, intended to divorce her secretly.
20 No thuutha wa gwĩciiria ũndũ ũcio, mũraika wa Mwathani akĩmuumĩrĩra kĩroto-inĩ, akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Jusufu, mũrũ wa Daudi, ndũkae gwĩtigĩra kũhikia Mariamu atuĩke mũtumia waku, tondũ nda ĩyo arĩ nayo nĩ ya Roho Mũtheru.
But when he thought about these things, behold, an angel of MarYah [Master Yahweh] appeared to him in a dream, saying, “Joseph [May he add], son of David [Beloved], don’t be afraid to take to yourself Mary [Rebellion], your wife, for that which is conceived in her is of Ruach haKodesh [Spirit, Breath of the Holiness].
21 Nĩagaciara kahĩĩ, nawe nĩũgagatua Jesũ, tondũ nĩwe ũkaahonokia andũ ake kuuma mehia-inĩ mao.”
She shall give birth to a son. You shall call his name Yeshua [Salvation], for it is he who shall save his people from their abstract sins ·miss the marks·.”
22 Na rĩrĩ, maũndũ macio mothe meekĩkire nĩguo ũrĩa Mwathani aarĩtie na kanua ka mũnabii ũhinge, rĩrĩa oigire atĩrĩ,
Now all this has happened, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by MarYah [Master Yahweh] through the prophet, saying,
23 “Mũirĩtu gathirange nĩakagĩa nda na nĩagaciara kahĩĩ, nao magaagatua Imanueli” ũguo naguo ũgĩtaũrwo nĩ kuuga, “Ngai hamwe na ithuĩ.”
“Behold, the virgin shall be with child, and shall give birth to a son. They shall call his name 'Immanu El [God is with us];” which is, being interpreted, “God with us.”
24 Rĩrĩa Jusufu ookĩrire, agĩĩka o ta ũrĩa mũraika wa Mwathani aamwathĩte, nake akĩinũkia Mariamu gwake mũciĩ, agĩtuĩka mũtumia wake.
Joseph [May he add] arose from his sleep, and did as the angel of MarYah [Master Yahweh] commanded him, and took his wife to himself;
25 No matiigana kũmenyana nginya rĩrĩa aaciarire mwana ũcio wa kahĩĩ. Nake Jusufu agĩtua mwana ũcio Jesũ.
and didn’t know her sexually until she had given birth to her firstborn son. He named him Yeshua [Salvation].
