[As you can calculate, I have grouped Jesus’] ancestors [as follows: ] There was [a succession of] 14 of them from [the time when] Abraham [lived] to [the time when King] David [lived]. There was [a succession of] 14 of them from [the time when] David [lived] to [the time when] the [Israelites were taken] {[the Babylonian army took the Israelites]} away to Babylon. There was [a succession of] 14 of them from [the time when the Israelites were taken] {[the Babylonian army took the Israelites]} away to Babylon until [the time when] the Messiah [was born].
18 Bada Iesus Christen sortzea hunela içan da. Ecen Maria haren ama Iosephequin fedatua cela, hec elkargana gabe, içorra eriden cedin Spiritu sainduaganic.
This is [the account of what happened just before] Jesus Christ was born. Mary, his mother, {had publicly promised Joseph that she would marry him} had been publicly promised to marry Joseph. Before they began to sleep together, [Mary] realized that she was pregnant. [It was the power of] the Holy Spirit that had caused her to become pregnant.
19 Orduan bere senhar Iosephec, ceren iusto baitzen eta ezpaitzuen hura diffamatu nahi, secretuqui vtzi nahi vkan çuen.
Joseph, her [future] husband, was a man who obeyed God’s commands. [One of those commands was that men must divorce women who had acted immorally. So when Joseph learned that Mary was pregnant, he assumed that she was pregnant as a result of her acting immorally]. So he decided to break the engagement. But because he did not want to shame her publicly, he decided to do it privately.
20 Baina gauça hauc gogoan cerabiltzala, huná, Iaunaren Aingueruä aguer cequion ametsetaric, cioela, Ioseph Dauid-en semeá, ezaicela beldur eure emazte Mariaren hartzera: ecen hartan concebitu dena, Spiritu sainduaganic duc.
While he was seriously considering this, much to his surprise, in a dream he saw an angel whom the Lord [had sent]. The angel said, “Joseph, descendant of [King] David, do not be afraid that [you(sg) would be doing wrong if you(sg) would marry] Mary. Instead, [begin to treat her] as your wife, because the Holy Spirit, [not a man], has caused her to be pregnant.
21 Eta erdiren duc seme batez eta deithuren duc haren icena Iesus. Ecen harc saluaturen dic bere populua hayen bekatuetaric.
She will give birth to a son. Since it is he who will cause that his people will be saved from [the guilt of] their having sinned, name [the baby] Jesus, [which means ‘the Lord saves people’].”
22 Bada haur gucia eguin içan da, Iaunac Prophetáz erran vkan çuena compli ledinçát, cioela,
All this happened as a result of what the Lord told the prophet [Isaiah to write long ago about what was going to happen]. This is what Isaiah wrote:
23 Huná, virginabat içorra içanen da, eta erdiren da seme batez, eta deithuren duté haren icena Emmanuel, cein erran nahi baita hambat nola, Iaincoa gurequin.
“Listen, a virgin will become pregnant and will give birth to a son. They will call him Emmanuel.” Emmanuel means ‘God is with us’.
24 Lotaric iratzarturic bada Iosephec eguin ceçan Aingueruäc manatu ceraucan beçala, eta har ceçan bere emaztea.
When Joseph got up from sleep, he did what the angel whom the Lord [had sent] commanded him to do. He took [Mary] home to be his wife.
25 Eta etzeçan hura eçagut, bere lehen semeaz erdi cedino: eta deiceçan haren icena Iesus.
But he did not have sexual relations with her until she had given birth to a son. And [Joseph] named him Jesus.
