18 Ngakho ukuzalwa kukaJesu Kristu kwaba nje. Ngoba unina uMariya esegane uJosefa, bengakahlangani wabonakala eselesisu ngoMoya oNgcwele.
Jisasi Kraisi'ma fore hu'neana amanahu hu'ne, Agri nerera Mariana, Josefente huhampri ante'nageno, nomago hu'ne omani'nakeno, Ruotge Avamu'mo rimpafi emanigeno, amu'ene hu'nege'za kefore hu'naze.
19 Kodwa uJosefa indoda yakhe engolungileyo, njalo engathandi ukumthela ihlazo, wayefuna ukumala ensitha.
Ana hazageno, agri neve Josefe'a fatgo ne' mani'negu, Mariana azeri agaze hu'zanku, oku'a a' atrenaku agu'agesa antahi'ne.
20 Kwathi esanakana lezizinto, khangela, ingilosi yeNkosi yabonakala kuye ephutsheni, esithi: Josefa, ndodana kaDavida, ungesabi ukumthatha uMariya umkakho; ngoba lokho akukhulelweyo kungoMoya oNgcwele;
Hianagi ana antahintahima retro nehigeno'a, mago Ramofo ankeromo ava'nafi eno anage huno asmi'ne, Josefe, Deviti nemofoge, korera osunka Mariana aka'agi avro, na'ankure agri rimpafima mani'neana, Ruotge Avamu'mofo mofavre mani'ne.
21 njalo uzazala indodana, ubize ibizo layo uthi nguJesu; ngoba yena uzasindisa abantu bakhe ezonweni zabo.
Ne'mofavre kasentegahianki, ana mofavremofo agi'a, Jisasi'e hunka agi'a antemio, na'ankure Agra vahe'amokizmi kumi'zmifinti zamaza hugahie.
22 Konke lokhu-ke kwenzeka ukuze kugcwaliseke okwakhulunywa yiNkosi ngomprofethi ukuthi:
Ama ana maka'zama efore hu'neana, korapa Ra Anumzamo kasnampa ne'te ke hunte'nea zamo nena'a efore hu'ne.
23 Khangela, intombi izathatha isisu ibelethe indodana, njalo bazabiza ibizo layo ngokuthi nguEmanuweli, okuyikuthi ngokuphendulelwa, uNkulunkulu ulathi.
Keho vene omani'nea a'mo mofavre amu'ene huno, Ne'mofavre kasentegahie, ana hanige'za zamagra Agri Agi'a Imanueli'e hugahaze, ana agima eri rukrahe haniana, Anumzamo tagrane mani'ne hu'ne. (Ais 7:14)
24 Kwathi uJosefa esephapheme ebuthongweni wenza njengalokho ingilosi yeNkosi imlayile, wasethatha umkakhe;
Mase'nefinti Josefe'a otino Ramofo ankeromo asmino hunte'nea kante anteno, Mariana a' avare'ne.
25 kodwa kazange amazi waze wabeletha indodana yakhe eyingqabutho; wasebiza ibizo layo wathi nguJesu.
Hianagi anteno omaseno amne kegava hu'negeno, ne'mofavre kasentegeno, Josefe'a, Jisasi'e huno agi'a ante'ne.
