Matye 1
1 Rejis a zansèt Jésus Kris yo, fis a David, fis a Abraham nan.
The genealogy of Jesus Christ, son of David, son of Abraham.
2 Abraham te papa Isaac. Isaac te fè Jacob. Jacob te papa Juda ak lòt frè l yo.
Abraham begat Isaac; and Isaac begat Jacob; and Jacob begat Judah and his brothers.
3 Juda te papa Pharès avèk Zara pa Thamar, Pharès te papa Esrom, epi Esrom te papa a Ram.
And Judah begat Pharez and Zarah, by Tamar. And Pharez begat Hezron; and Hezron begat Ram;
4 Ram te papa Aminadab. Aminadab te papa Naasson. Naasson te papa Salmon.
and Ram begat Amminadab; and Amminadab begat Nahshon; and Nahshon begat Salmon;
5 Salmon e Rehab te fè Boaz. Boaz te papa Obed pa Ruth; Obed te papa Isaï.
and Salmon begat Boaz by Rahab. And Boaz begat Obed by Ruth. And Obed begat Jesse;
6 Epi Isaï te bay nesans a David, wa a. David te fè Salomon pa Bathshéba ki te madanm a Urie.
and Jesse begat David the king. And David begat Solomon by the wife of Uriah.
7 Salomon te fè Roboam. Roboam fè Abia, e pa Abia, Asa.
And Solomon begat Rehoboam; and Rehoboam begat Abijah; and Abijah begat Asa;
8 Asa te fè Josaphat, e pa Josaphat, Joram. Pa Joram, Ozias;
and Asa begat Jehoshaphat; and Jehoshaphat begat Joram; and Joram begat Uzziah;
9 Pou Ozias te fèt Jotham; e a Jotham, Achaz; a Achaz, Ézéchias;
and Uzziah begat Jotham; and Jotham begat Ahaz; and Ahaz begat Hezekiah;
10 epi pa Ézéchias te fèt Manassé; e a Manassé, Amon; e pa Amon Josias;
and Hezekiah begat Manasseh; and Manasseh begat Amon; and Amon begat Josiah;
11 Josias te fè Jéchonias ak frè li yo nan tan depòtasyon Babylone nan.
and Josiah begat Jeconiah and his brothers, at the time of the removal to Babylon.
12 Aprè depòtasyon Babylone nan, Jéchonias te fè Salathiel; e pa Salathiel, Zorobabel.
And after the removal to Babylon, Jeconiah begat Shealtiel; and Shealtiel begat Zerubbabel;
13 A Zorobabel te fèt Abiud; e a Abiud, Eliakim, e a Eliakim, Azor.
and Zerubbabel begat Abiud; and Abiud begat Eliakim; and Eliakim begat Azor;
14 Pou Azor te vin fèt Sadok, e a Sadok, Achim, e a Achim, Éliud.
and Azor begat Zadok; and Zadok begat Achim; and Achim begat Eliud;
15 A Éliud te vin fèt Éléazar. Éléazar te fè Matthan, e pou Matthan, Jacob.
and Eliud begat Eleazar; and Eleazar begat Matthan; and Matthan begat Jacob;
16 Jacob te fè Joseph, mari a Marie a, manman a Jésus ke yo rele Kris la.
and Jacob begat 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 to the removal to Babylon are fourteen generations; and from the removal to 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 in this manner. When his mother Mary had been betrothed to Joseph, before they came together, she was found to be with child by the Holy Spirit.
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 righteous, and not willing to expose her to shame, purposed 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, lo! an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream, saying, Joseph, son of David, fear not to take to thee Mary thy wife; for that which is conceived in her is by the Holy Spirit.
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 will bear a son, and thou shalt call his name Jesus; for he will 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 took place, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the Lord through 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, the virgin shall be with child, and shall bear a son, and they shall call his name Immanuel;” that is, when interpreted, God-is 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, on waking up from sleep, did as the angel of the Lord had bidden him, and took to 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 he knew her not till she had brought forth a son: and he called his name Jesus.
