Matiu 1
1 Ko te pukapuka o te whakapapa o Ihu Karaiti, tama a Rawiri, tama a Aperahama.
A book of a genealogy of Jesus Christ, the son of David, the son of Abraham.
2 Na ko ta Aperahama ko Ihaka; ta Ihaka ko Hakopa; ta Hakopa ko Hura ratou ko ona tuakana, ko ona teina;
Abraham begot Isaac, and Isaac begot Jacob, and Jacob begot Judah and his brothers,
3 Ta Hura raua ko Tamara ko Parete raua ko Hara; ta Parete ko Heteromo; ta Heteromo ko Arame;
and Judah begot Perez and Zerah from Tamar, and Perez begot Hezron, and Hezron begot Ram,
4 Ta Arame ko Aminarapa; ta Aminarapa ko Nahona; ta Nahona ko Haramono;
and Ram begot Amminadab, and Amminadab begot Nahshon, and Nahshon begot Salmon,
5 Ta Haramono raua ko Rahapa ko Poaha; ta Poaha raua ko Rutu ko Opere; ta Opere ko Hehe;
and Salmon begot Boaz from Rahab, and Boaz begot Obed from Ruth, and Obed begot Jesse,
6 Ta Hehe ko Rawiri, ko te kingi; ta Rawiri kingi raua ko te wahine a Uria ko Horomona;
and Jesse begot David the king. And David begot Solomon from the widow of Uriah,
7 Ta Horomona ko Rehopoama; ta Rehopoama ko Apia; ta Apia ko Aha;
and Solomon begot Rehoboam, and Rehoboam begot Abijah, and Abijah begot Asa,
8 Ta Aha ko Iehohapata; ta Iehohapata ko Iorama; ta Iorama ko Ohiaha;
and Asa begot Jehoshaphat, and Jehoshaphat begot Joram, and Joram begot Uzziah,
9 Ta Ohiaha ko Iotama; ta Iotama ko Ahata; ta Ahata ko Hetekia;
and Uzziah begot Jotham, and Jotham begot Ahaz, and Ahaz begot Hezekiah,
10 Ta Hetekia ko Manahi; ta Manahi ko Amono; ta Amono ko Hohia;
and Hezekiah begot Manasseh, and Manasseh begot Amon, and Amon begot Josiah,
11 Ta Hohia ko Hekonia ratou ko ona teina; i te wa o te whakahekenga ki Papurona:
and Josiah begot Jechoniah and his brothers during the Babylonian exile.
12 A, i muri i te whakahekenga atu ki Papurona, ka whanau ta Hekonia ko Haratiera; ta Haratiera ko Herupapera;
And after the Babylonian exile, Jechoniah begot Shealtiel, and Shealtiel begot Zerubbabel,
13 Ta Herupapera ko Apiuru; ta Apiuru ko Eriakimi; ta Eriakimi ko Atoro;
and Zerubbabel begot Abiud, and Abiud begot Eliakim, and Eliakim begot Azor,
14 Ta Atoro ko Haroko; ta Haroko ko Akimi; ta Akimi ko Eriuru;
and Azor begot Zadoc, and Zadoc begot Achim, and Achim begot Eliud,
15 Ta Eriuru ko Ereatara; ta Ereatara ko Matana; ta Matana ko Hakopa;
and Eliud begot Eleazar, and Eleazar begot Matthan, and Matthan begot Jacob,
16 Ta Hakopa ko Hohepa, ko te tahu a Meri; whanau ake ta Meri ko Ihu, e kiia nei ko te Karaiti.
and Jacob begot Joseph the husband of Mary, of whom was born Jesus, who is called Christ.
17 Heoi, ko nga whakatupuranga katoa o Aperahama tae noa ki a Rawiri tekau ma wha nga whakatupuranga; o Rawiri tae noa ki te whakahekenga ki Papurona tekau ma wha nga whakatupuranga; a no te whakahekenga ki Papurona tae noa ki a te Karaiti tekau ma wha nga whakatupuranga.
So all the generations from Abraham to David are fourteen generations, and from David to the Babylonian exile fourteen generations, and from the Babylonian exile to the Christ fourteen generations.
18 Na ko te whanautanga tenei o Ihu Karaiti: he mea taumau a Meri, tona whaea, ma Hohepa, a i te mea kiano raua i tata noa ki a raua, ka kitea kua hapu ia i te Wairua Tapu.
Now the birth of Jesus Christ was this way. For his mother Mary, who was betrothed to Joseph, before they came together she was found having in her womb from the Holy Spirit.
19 Otira he tangata tika tana tahu, a Hohepa, a kahore ona ngakau kia whakakitea nuitia ia, ka mea kia whakarerea pukutia.
But Joseph her husband, being a righteous man, and not wanting to expose her to public disgrace, intended to dismiss her privately.
20 Otiia i a ia e hurihuri ana i enei mea, na, ka puta moemoea mai tetahi anahera a te Ariki ki a ia, ka mea, E Hohepa, e te tama a Rawiri, kaua e hopohopo ki te tango i a Meri, i tau wahine; na te Wairua Tapu hoki tona hapu.
But while he considered these things, behold, an agent of the Lord appeared to him in a dream, saying, Joseph, thou son of David, fear not to take Mary to be thy wife, for that which was begotten in her is from the Holy Spirit.
21 A e whanau ia he tama, me hua e koe tona ingoa ko IHU: no te mea mana e whakaora tona iwi i o ratou hara.
And she will bring forth a son, and thou shall call his name JESUS, for he will save his people from their sins.
22 Na ka oti tenei katoa, katahi ka rite ta te Ariki, i korerotia e te poropiti, i mea ai ia,
Now all this has come to pass, so that what was spoken by the Lord through the prophet might be fulfilled, which says,
23 Na, ka hapu te wahine, ka whanau hoki he tama, a ka huaina e ratou tona ingoa ko Emanuera, ko tona whakamaoritanga tenei, Kei a tatou te Atua.
Behold, the virgin will have in her womb, and will bring forth a son. And they will call his name Immanuel, which is, being interpreted, God with us.
24 A ka ara ake a Hohepa i te moe, ka meatia e ia ta te anahera a te Ariki i whakahau ai ki a ia, a tango ana ia i tana wahine:
And Joseph, being roused from his sleep, did as the agent of the Lord ordered him. And he took his wife,
25 A kihai i mohio ki a ia, whanau noa tana tama matamua: a huaina ana e ia tona ingoa ko IHU.
and knew her not until she brought forth her son, the firstborn. And he called his name JESUS.
