17 Nokudaro kwaiva nezvizvarwa gumi nezvina pamwe chete kubvira pana Abhurahama kusvika pana Dhavhidhi, zvizvarwa gumi nezvina kubva pana Dhavhidhi kusvika pakutapwa kwavo vachiendwa navo kuBhabhironi, zvizvarwa gumi nezvina kubva pakudzoka kwavo kuutapwa kusvika panguva yaKristu.
从亚伯拉罕到大卫共十四代人;从大卫到巴比伦流放之时亦为十四代人,从巴比伦流放到基督又为十四代人。
18 Uku ndiko kuberekwa kwakaitwa Jesu Kristu: Maria, mai vake vainge vatsidzirwa kuroorwa naJosefa, asi vasati vagara vose, achiri mhandara, akaonekwa ava napamuviri nokuda kwaMweya Mutsvene.
以下为弥赛亚——即耶稣基督降生的过程:他的母亲玛利亚被许配给约瑟,但在同房之前,玛利亚就因圣灵受孕。
19 Asi nokuda kwokuti Josefa akanga ari munhu akarurama akafunga zvokumuramba chinyararire, asingamunyadzisi pavazhinji.
她的丈夫约瑟生性善良,不愿张扬此事让她受尽羞辱,于是打算暗地将她休掉。
20 Asi achiri kufunga nezvenyaya iyi, mutumwa waIshe akauya kwaari mukurota akasvikoti, “Josefa, mwana waDhavhidhi, usatya kutora Maria somukadzi wako nokuti pamuviri paava napo akapabata nokuda kwesimba raMweya Mutsvene.
就在他思量此事之时,主派来天使进入他的梦境,对他说:“大卫之子约瑟,不要担心,迎娶你的妻子玛利亚,因她所孕育乃源于圣灵。
21 Achava nomwana mukomana wauchazotumidza zita rokuti Jesu nokuti ndiye achaponesa vanhu vake kubva muzvivi zvavo.”
她将诞下一子,请为其起名耶稣,他将会把苍生从罪恶之中拯救出来。”
22 Izvi zvose zvakaitika kuti zvizadzise zvakanga zvataurwa naIshe kubudikidza nomuprofita wake zvokuti:
(这一切印证了主通过先知给出的预言:
23 “Mhandara ichava napamuviri, igozvara mwana mukomana, uye vachamutumidza zita rokuti Emanueri, zvichireva kuti, ‘Mwari anesu.’”
将有处女怀孕生子,世人将称他为马内利 即 “上帝与我们同在”之意)。
24 Josefa paakapepuka, akaita sezvaakanga arayirwa nomutumwa waIshe, uye akatora Maria somukadzi wake,
约瑟醒来后,便遵从天使的嘱托,
25 asi haana kusangana naye kusvikira azvara mwana mukomana. Akamutumidza zita rokuti Jesu.
迎娶妻子过门,但在孩子出生前并未与她同房。玛利亚生下男婴后,约瑟为他起名耶稣。
