17 Impapo zyonti afume hwa Ibrahimu hadi hwa Daudi zyahali impapo kumi na nne, afume hwa Daudi hadi hwegwe abhale hwa Babeli impapo kumi na nne, na afume ahwegwe afume hu Babeli hadi hwa Klisiti impapo kumi na nne.
So all the generations from Abraham unto David are fourteen generations; and from David unto the carrying away to Babylon fourteen generations; and from the carrying away to Babylon unto the Christ fourteen generations.
18 Apapwe hwa Yesu Klisiti hwahali ishi. Unyina wakwe u Mariamu, ahazinjiwilwe nu Yusufu, ishi shebhasili alolane ahaloleshe aje alinivyanda hwa mpepo umfinjile.
Now the birth of Jesus Christ was on this wise: When his mother Mary had been betrothed to Joseph, before they came together she was found with child of the Holy Spirit.
19 Unume wakwe u Yusufu, ahali muntu wi lyoli zaga ahauzaga hukenyesye hubhantu. Ahamuye ahwimilisye husili.
And Joseph her husband, being a righteous man, and not willing to make her a public example, was minded to put her away privily.
20 Nahasibhaga ahusu amamba iga, uwantumi uwa ngumbhi ahamfumiiye hunjozi, ahaga, “Yusufu mwana wa Daudi, usahogope humweje u Mariamu unshi waho pipo ulwanda lwali nalwo lufumiline nu Mepo umfinjile.
But when he thought on these things, behold, an angel of the Lord appeared unto him in a dream, saying, Joseph, thou son of David, fear not to take unto thee Mary thy wife: for that which is conceived in her is of the Holy Spirit.
21 Abhapape umwana unsahala ubhalunkwize itawa lyakwe yu Yesu, papo anzahubhokole abhantu bhakwe ni dhambi zyabho.”
And she shall bring forth a son; and thou shalt call his name JESUS; for it is he that shall save his people from their sins.
22 Gonti gahafumiye aje nkezibhombeshe zyezyayangwile nu gosi hwidala lya kuwa aje,
Now all this is come to pass, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the Lord through the prophet, saying,
23 “Enya, u bikira ahayibha ni vyanda ahayipapa umwana uwishilume itawa lyakwe abhahukwizye yu Imanueli” — imaana yakwe, “Ungulubhi ali natwi.”
Behold, the virgin shall be with child, and shall bring forth a son, And they shall call his name Immanuel; which is, being interpreted, God with us.
24 U Yusufu ahadamushe mutulo na bhombe ndeshe abhantumi ngosi she bhahamuzizye na ahamwejile unshi wakwe.
And Joseph arose from his sleep, and did as the angel of the Lord commanded him, and took unto him his wife;
25 Hata shinisho, sagahagonile nawo mpaka lwahapapa umwana uwishilume ahankwizya itawa lyakwe yu Yesu.
and knew her not till she had brought forth a son: and he called his name JESUS.
