6 Epi Isaï te bay nesans a David, wa a. David te fè Salomon pa Bathshéba ki te madanm a Urie.
And Jesse brings forth David the king; and David the king brings forth Solomon of her that had been the wife of Urias;
7 Salomon te fè Roboam. Roboam fè Abia, e pa Abia, Asa.

8 Asa te fè Josaphat, e pa Josaphat, Joram. Pa Joram, Ozias;
And Asa brings forth Josaphat; and Josaphat brings forth Joram; and Joram brings forth Ozias;
9 Pou Ozias te fèt Jotham; e a Jotham, Achaz; a Achaz, Ézéchias;
And Ozias brings forth Joatham; and Joatham brings forth Achaz; and Achaz brings forth Ezekias;
10 epi pa Ézéchias te fèt Manassé; e a Manassé, Amon; e pa Amon Josias;
And Ezekias brings forth Manasses; and Manasses brings forth Amon; and Amon brings forth Josias;
11 Josias te fè Jéchonias ak frè li yo nan tan depòtasyon Babylone nan.
And Josias brings forth Jechonias and his brethren, about the time they were carried away to Babylon:
12 Aprè depòtasyon Babylone nan, Jéchonias te fè Salathiel; e pa Salathiel, Zorobabel.
And after they were brought to Babylon, Jechonias brings forth Salathiel; and Salathiel brings forth Zorobabel;
13 A Zorobabel te fèt Abiud; e a Abiud, Eliakim, e a Eliakim, Azor.

16 Jacob te fè Joseph, mari a Marie a, manman a Jésus ke yo rele Kris la.
And Jacob brings forth Joseph the husband of Mary, of whom was born Jesus, who is called Christ.
17 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.
So all the generations from Abraham to David are fourteen generations; and from David until the carrying away into Babylon are fourteen generations; and from the carrying away into Babylon unto Christ are fourteen generations.
18 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.
Now the birth of Jesus Christ was likewise: When as his mother Mary was espoused to Joseph, before they came together, she was found with child of the Holy Spirit. (pneuma)
19 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.
Then Joseph her husband, being a just man, and not willing to make her a public example, was minded to put her away privately.
20 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.
But while he thought on these things, behold, the angel of the LORD appeared unto him in a dream, saying, Joseph, you son of David, fear not to take unto you Mary your wife: for that which is conceived in her is of the Holy Spirit. (pneuma)
21 Li va fè yon fis, epi ou va rele li Jésus paske se Li menm ki va sove pèp li a de peche yo.”
And she shall bring forth a son, and you shall call his name JESUS: for he shall save his people from their sins.
22 Tout sa te fèt pou akonpli sa ki te pale pa Senyè a, atravè pwofèt yo;
Now all this was done, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken of the Lord by the prophet, saying,
23 “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”.
Behold, a virgin shall be with child, and shall bring forth a son, and they shall call his name Emmanuel, which being interpreted is, God with us.
24 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.
Then Joseph being raised from sleep did as the angel of the Lord had bidden him, and took unto him his wife:
25 Li te kenbe l kon yon vyèj jiskaske li te fin fè gason an, epi li te rele li Jésus.
And had sexual contact with her not till she had brought forth her firstborn son: and he called his name JESUS.
