Jakub begat Jauseph, husband of Mariam, of whom was born JESHU who is called the Meshicha.
17 Naizvozvo mazera ese kubva kuna Abhurahama kusvikira kuna Dhavhidhi mazera gumi nemana; nekubva kuna Dhavhidhi kusvikira pakutapirwa kuBhabhironi mazera gumi nemana; nekubva pakutapirwa kuBhabhironi kusvikira kuna Kristu mazera gumi nemana.
Thus all the generations from Abraham to David (were) fourteen generations; and from David to the exile of Bobel, fourteen generations; and from the exile of Bobel to the Meshicha, fourteen generations.
18 Zvino kuberekwa kwaJesu Kristu kwaiva kwakadai: Nokuti mai vake Maria vakati vatsidzirwa kuroorwa naJosefa, vasati vasangana vakaonekwa vava nemimba kubva kuMweya Mutsvene.
NOW the nativity of Jeshu the Meshicha was thus: While Mariam his mother was betrothed to Jauseph, before they could be consociated, she was found to be with child from the Spirit of Holiness.
19 Zvino Josefa murume wavo zvaakange ari wakarurama, asingadi kuvafumura, waida kuvaramba muchivande.
But Jauseph her husband was just, and, not willing to defame her, meditated privately to release her.
20 Asi zvino wakati acharangarira zvinhu izvozvi, tarira, mutumwa waIshe wakaonekwa kwaari muchiroto achiti: Josefa, mwanakomana waDhavhidhi, usatya kuzvitorera Maria mukadzi wako; nokuti icho chakaumbwa maari ndecheMweya Mutsvene.
But while (on) these (things) he reflected, an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream, and said to him, Jauseph, son of David, fear not to take Mariam thy wife; for that which is conceived in her is from the Spirit of Holiness.
21 Uye achabereka Mwanakomana, uye uchatumidza zita rake Jesu, nokuti iye achaponesa vanhu vake pazvivi zvavo.
She shall give birth to a son, and thou shalt call his name JESHU; for he shall save his people from their sins.
22 Zvino zvese izvozvi zvakaitwa kuti zvizadziswe zvakarehwa naIshe kubudikidza nemuporofita achiti:
Now all this was done, that what was spoken from the Lord by the prophet might be fulfilled:
23 Tarira, mhandara ichava nemimba, igobereka Mwanakomana, uye vachatumidza zita rake Emanueri, ndokuti kana zvichishandurwa, Mwari anesu.
Behold, a virgin shall be with child, and shall bring forth the son, and they shall call his name Amanuel; which is interpreted, With us (is) our Aloha.
24 Zvino Josefa amuka pahope akaita sezvakaraira mutumwa waIshe kwaari, akazvitorera mukadzi wake;
Then Jauseph, when he had arisen from his sleep, did as the angel of the Lord commanded him, and took unto him his wife;
25 uye haana kumuziva kusvikira azvara Mwanakomana wake wedangwe; akatumidza zita rake JESU.
and knew her not until she had given birth to her son, the firstborn; and she called his name Jeshu.
