Vat bisana bi Ibrahim uhana u Dauda bisana kanu kirau in ka nazi. Usuro Udauda u'inta uwe uhani uwe ubabila me, bisana ukirau inkani ka nazi kani, u inta uwe ubabila uhana unu bura bisana ukirau in kani ka nazi.
18 Ngakho ukuzalwa kukaJesu Kristu kwaba nje. Ngoba unina uMariya esegane uJosefa, bengakahlangani wabonakala eselesisu ngoMoya oNgcwele.
Uyoo u Yeso uzi gusi ana sa Isubu maa zin inti nyari ti Maryamu a i'no a Yeso, adaza sarki uzika ume, a iri me ma tonno u suro ubibe bilau.
19 Kodwa uJosefa indoda yakhe engolungileyo, njalo engathandi ukumthela ihlazo, wayefuna ukumala ensitha.
Uruma ume Isubu unu mani shew si, mada nyara me ma nya mu'i aje anu, ma ziki iriba ime madi harzina nan me in nihunzi.
20 Kwathi esanakana lezizinto, khangela, ingilosi yeNkosi yabonakala kuye ephutsheni, esithi: Josefa, ndodana kaDavida, ungesabi ukumthatha uMariya umkakho; ngoba lokho akukhulelweyo kungoMoya oNgcwele;
Sa mara anyimo ubasa imum me, bibe bi ka dura kasere bi'e ahira ame atiroo, bigu, “Yusufu vana Dauda katu kun biyau ziki une uwe maryamu, barki apuru a gino bibe bilau bini”
21 njalo uzazala indodana, ubize ibizo layo uthi nguJesu; ngoba yena uzasindisa abantu bakhe ezonweni zabo.
Madi yoo vana udi nyame niza Yesu barki me mani madi buri a nu ame amadini.
22 Konke lokhu-ke kwenzeka ukuze kugcwaliseke okwakhulunywa yiNkosi ngomprofethi ukuthi:
Vat uwuzi ani me, barki a myinca imumbe sa Ugomo Asere ma buka unu kur zoutize.
23 Khangela, intombi izathatha isisu ibelethe indodana, njalo bazabiza ibizo layo ngokuthi nguEmanuweli, okuyikuthi ngokuphendulelwa, uNkulunkulu ulathi.
“I ye kubura kudi we puru, ku yoo vana, adi wume ni za Emmanuel” (bi nyo bini zame Asere azi nan haru).
24 Kwathi uJosefa esephapheme ebuthongweni wenza njengalokho ingilosi yeNkosi imlayile, wasethatha umkakhe;
Sa Yusufu ma zuma amoro, matar si ti ze ti bibe bi kadura kasere ma ziki une ume.
25 kodwa kazange amazi waze wabeletha indodana yakhe eyingqabutho; wasebiza ibizo layo wathi nguJesu.
Dama rusi nipum nume mayo ma in kime ni za Yesu.
