Matthew 1
1 The Lineage Roll of Jesus Christ, —Son of David, Son of Abraham.
Abalahama biga, jakobo biga, JESU kiristu yajanba yela n ne:
2 Abraham begat Isaac, and Isaac begat Jacob, and Jacob, begat Judah and his brethren;
Abalahama mali Isaka; Isaka ń mali Jakobo; Jakobo ń mali Juda yeni o ninjaba;
3 And Judah begat Perez and Zarah of Tamah, and Perez begat Hezron, and Hezron begat Ram;
Juda bo taa Tamaar, ki mali Fares yeni Saara; Fares ń mali Esrom; Esrom ń mali Aram;
4 And Ram begat Amminadab, and Amminadab begat Nashon, and Nashon begat Salmon;
Aram ń mali Aminadab; Aminadab ń mali Naasɔn; Naasɔn ń mali Salmɔn;
5 And Salmon begat Boaz of Rahab, and Boaz begat Obed of Ruth, and Obed begat Jesse;
Salmɔn ń taa Rahab, ki mali Bɔas; Bɔas ń taa Rut ki mali Obed;
6 And Jesse begat David the King. And David begat Solomon of her [that had been the wife] of Uriah;
Obed ń mali Isayi; Isayi ń mali Dafid; O badciamo Dafid ń taa Uri denpua, ki mali Salomɔn;
7 And Solomon begat Rehoboam, and Rehoboam begat Abijah, and Abijah begat Asa;
Salomɔn ń mali Robuam; Robuam ń mali Abia; Abiya ń mali Asa;
8 And Asa begat Jehoshaphat, and Jehoshaphat begat Joram, and Joram begat Uzziah;
Asa ń mali Josafat; Josafat ń mali Joram; Joram ń mali Osiyas;
9 And Uzziah begat Jotham, and Jotham begat Ahaz, and Ahaz begat Hezekiah:
Osiyas ń mali Juatam; Juatam ń mali Ahas; Ahas ń mali Esekihas;
10 And Hezekiah begat Manasseh, and Manasseh begat Amon, and Amon begat Josiah;
Esekihas ń mali Manase; Manase ń mali Amɔn; Amɔn ń mali Josias;
11 And Josiah begat Jechoniah, and his brethren, —upon the removal to Babylon.
Josias ń mali Jekonias yeni o ninjaba, ban cuo ba ya yogu ki gede yeni ba Babilɔni, ti yonbidi.
12 And, after the removal to Babylon, Jechoniah begat Shealtiel, and Shealtiel begat Zerubbabel;
Babiloni yonbdi ń pendi, ke Jekonias mali Salatiel; Salatiel ń mali Sorobabel;
13 And Zerubbabel begat Abiud, and Abiud begat Eliakim, and Eliakim begat Azor;
Sorobabel ń mali Abiyud; Abiyud ń mali Eliakim; Eliakim ń mali Asɔar;
14 And Azor begat Sadoc, and Sadoc begat Achim, and Achim begat Eliud;
Asɔar ń mali Sadɔk; Sadɔk ń mali Akim; Akim ń mali Eliyud.
15 And Eliud begat Eleazar, and Eleazar begat Matthan, and Matthan begat Jacob; —
Eliyud ń mali Eleyasaar; Eleyasaar ń mali Matan; Matan ń mali Jakob;
16 And Jacob begat Joseph, the husband of Mary, of whom was born Jesus, —who is called Christ.
Jakob ń mali Josef, Maari calo, Maari, yua n mali Jesu, ban yi yua kiristu.
17 So then, all the generations from Abraham unto David, are, fourteen, generations, and, from David unto the removal to Babylon, fourteen, generations; and, from the removal to Babylon unto the Christ, fourteen, generations.
Lan wani, lan cili Abalahama, ki tuoni Dafiid, li tie piiga n nifiima na, lan taa Dafiid ki tuoni Babiloni yonbidi, li mo tie piiga n nifiima na, ki taa Babiloni yonbdi hali kiristu li mo tie piiga n nifiima na.
18 Now the birth, of [Jesus] Christ, was, thus: His mother Mary having been betrothed to Joseph, —before they came together, she was found with child by [the] Holy Spirit.
Jesu kiristu ń mali maama n ne. Maari, o naá bo tie Josef cikpenga i, ki punbi U Tienu Foŋanma paalu po, ke bi dá ki taani yeni bi yaba (ki dá ki kuni ti cikpendi)
19 Moreover, Joseph her husband, being, righteous, and yet unwilling to expose her, —intended, privately, to divorce her.
O calo, Josef ń bo tie nitegnka, kaa bua ke o fiagi o yeni, o den jagi ke wan wuoni, ki yie o ŋasiili nni.
20 But, when, these things, he had pondered, lo! a messenger of the Lord, by dream, appeared to him, saying, —Joseph, son of David! do not fear to take unto thee Mary thy wife, for, that which, in her, hath been begotten, is of [the], Holy, Spirit.
Wan taa lan ya maalma yeni, O Diedo maleki ń legdi o po ti dangdi nni, ki maadi o: Dafiid bijua Josef, da jie yeni ŋan kuani a denpua Maari kelima, wan punbi ya biga ne ñani U Tienu Foŋanma kani i.
21 Moreover she shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt call his name Jesus, —for, he, will save his people from their sins.
O ba mali bonjaga, ŋan yini o Jesu; wani n ba faabi o buolu u tuonbiidi po.
22 But, all this, hath come to pass, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the Lord, through the prophet, saying:
Ne kuli tieni ke O Diedo ń bo cedi ke bi sawalpuaba tuodi ki waani yaali ń tieni ki dudi:
23 Lo! a Virgin, shall be with child, and shall bring forth a son, —and they shall call his name Emmanuel; which is, being translated, God with us.
I ba la powandiali (ya jifaano dá ki bani ja) ba punbi, ki mali bonjaga, ban yini o Emanuyel, li niima nni tie U Tienu ye yeni ti.
24 And Joseph, awaking, from his sleep, did as the messenger of the Lord directed him, —and took unto him his wife;
Josef ń den findi, o den tieni nani O Diedo maleki ń waani o yaala, o den ga o denpua ke bi taani ki ye.
25 and knew her not, until she had brought forth a son, —and he called his name Jesus.
Ama, o den ki taani yeni o hali ke o ban mali bonjaga ke o yini o Jesu.
