and Amon begat Josias, and Josias begat Jakim, and Jakim begat Jechonias and his brethren, about the time of their being carried away to Babylon.
12 Ni baada ya tolelwa yenda Babeli, Yekonia abile tate ba Shatieli abile babu bake ni Zarubabeli.
And after the captivity of Babylon, Jechonias begat Salathiel,
13 Zarubabeli abile tate ba Abiudi, Abiudi tate ba Eliakimu, ni Eliakimu tate ba Azori,
and Salathiel begat Zorobabel, and Zorobabel begat Abiud, and Abiud begat Eliakim, and Eliakim begat Azor,

16 Yakobo abile tate ba Yusufu nsengo wa Mariamu, ambaye kwa Yembe Yesu abelekilwe, ywa kemwa Kristo.
and Jacob begat Joseph the husband of Mary, of whom was born Jesus who is called Christ.
17 Ibelei yoti tangu Ibrahimu hadi Daudi yabile ibelei komi ni ncheche, kuoma Daudi hadi kutoliwa yenda Babeli ibelei komi ni ncheche, ni kuoma kutoliwa yenda Babeli mpaka Kristo yabile ibelei komi ni ncheche.
All the generations therefore from Abraham to David are fourteen generations: and from David until the captivity of Babylon fourteen generations: and from the Babylonish captivity unto Christ, fourteen generations.
18 Belekwa kwa Yesu Kristo kwabile nyonyo, Mao bake, Mariamu, achumbilwe ni Yusufu, lakini babi bado gonja pamope, abonekine kubi ni ndumbo kwa uwezo ba Roho mtakatifu.
Now the birth of Jesus Christ was in wise: when Mary his mother was promised in marriage to Joseph, before they came together, she was found with child by the Holy Ghost:
19 Nchengo bake, Yusufu, abile mundu wa Nnongo apendi kwaa kumpeya oni. Amweni anneka kwa siri.
but Joseph her husband, being a just man, and not willing publicly to expose her, was inclined to break off the contract with her privately;
20 Pabilekagawaza kunani makowe ago, Malaika ba Ngwana ampili mundoto, kakoya, “Yusufu mwana wa Daudi, kana uyogope kuntola Mariamu kuba nnyumbo bako, kwa sababu ndumbo abi nayo ni kwa uweza wa Roho mtakatifu.
and when he was thinking on these things, behold an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream, saying, Joseph thou Son of David, scruple not to take unto thee Mary thy wife; for that which is conceived in her is from the Holy Spirit.
21 Alowa beleka mwana nnalome ni walowa kunkema lina lyake Yesu, kati apala kubalopwa bandu bake kuoma musambi zabe.”
And she shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt call his name Jesus, for he shall save his people from their sins.
22 Ngoti yega yapitike kamirisha chelo sabakilwe kwa ndela ya manabii, kakoya,
(Now all this came to pass, that it might be fulfilled, which the Lord spake by the prophet, saying,
23 Lola, bikira apatola ndumbo ni beleka mwana nnalome, ni akemwa lina lyake Imanueli maana yake, “Nnongo pamope natwenga.”
"Behold a virgin shall conceive and bear a son, and they shall call his name Emmanuel," which is God with us.)
24 Yusufu atiyumuka kuoma mulugono ni panga kati malaika wa Ngwana akoite nga atikumpotwa kati nnyumbo bake.
So Joseph, when he awoke from his sleep, did as the angel of the Lord directed him, and took home his wife:
25 Palyo, agonjike kwaa nakwe mpaka paapapite mwana wake nnalome akemilwe lina lyake Yesu.
and he knew her not, till she brought forth her Son the first-born, and he called his name Jesus.
