12 After the exile to Babylon, Jechoniah became the father of Shealtiel. Shealtiel became the father of Zerubbabel.

17 So all the generations from Abraham to David are fourteen generations; from David to the exile to Babylon fourteen generations; and from the carrying away to Babylon to the Christ, fourteen generations.
Hiza, yeletethay Abrahameppe Dawite gakkanaw tammanne oydda. Dawiteppe bidi Babiloone di7uwa gakkanaw tammanne oydda. Babiloone di7uwappe bidi Kiristtoosa gakkanaw tammanne oyddu yeletethi gidees.
18 Now the birth of Jesus Christ was like this: After his mother, Mary, was engaged to Joseph, before they came together, she was found pregnant by the Holy Spirit.
Yesuus Kiristtoosa yeletethaa taarikey hayssafe kaalleyssa. Iya aaya Mayraama Yoosefas oyshetta de7ashe Yoosefara gahettonna Geeshsha Ayyaanaappe qanthatasu.
19 Joseph, her husband, being a righteous man, and not willing to make her a public example, intended to put her away secretly.
Yoosefi Xillo asi gidida gisho iyo asan kessanaw koyibeenna. Yaaniya gisho qosan iyo agganaw qoppis.
20 But when he thought about these things, behold, an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream, saying, “Joseph, son of David, do not be afraid to take to yourself Mary as your wife, for that which is conceived in her is of the Holy Spirit.
I he qofan de7ishin Xoossaa kiitanchchoy amuhon qonccidi, “Dawite na7aw, Yoosefa, Mayraama qanthatiday Geeshsha Ayyaanaappe gidiya gisho iyo ekkanaw yayyofa” yaagis.
21 She shall give birth to a son. You shall name him Jesus, for it is he who shall save his people from their sins.”
Iya adde na7a yelana, I ba deriya entta nagaraappe ashshiya gisho iya sunthaa ne Yesuusa gada xeegana.
22 Now all this has happened that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the Lord through the prophet, saying,
Goday nabiya Isayaasa doonan,
23 “Behold, the virgin shall be with child, and shall give birth to a son. They shall call his name Immanuel,” which is, being interpreted, “God with us.”
“Hekko geela7iya qanthatana; adde na7akka yelana; iya sunthay Ammanu7eela geetettana” goyssi polettana mela ha ubbay hanis. Ammanu7eela geyssas birshshethay “Xoossay nuura de7ees” guussu.
24 Joseph arose from his sleep, and did as the angel of the Lord commanded him, and took his wife to himself;
Yoosefi dhiskkofe barkkidi Godaa kiitanchchoy kiittidayssa mela Mayraamo ba soo efis.
25 and did not know her sexually until she had given birth to her firstborn son. He named him Jesus.
Shin ba bayra na7a yelana gakkanaw iyo bochchibeenna; yelettida na7akka Yesuusa gidi xeegis.
