Mathayo 1
1 Kitabu cha lukolo lwa Yesu Kristo mwana wa Daudi, mwana wa Ibrahimu,
The book of the generation of Jesus Christ, the son of David, the son of Abraham.
2 Ibrahimu abile tate ba Isaka, ni Isaka tate bake Yakobo, ni Yakobo tate ba Yuda ni nuna bake.
Abraham begat Isaac; and Isaac begat Jacob; and Jacob begat Judah and his brethren;
3 Yuda abile tate ba Peresi ni Sera kwa Tamari, Peresi tate ba Hezeroni, ni Hezeroni tate ba Ramu.
And Judah begat Phares and Zara of Thamar; and Phares begat Esrom; and Esrom begat Aram;
4 Ramu abile tate ba Aminadabu, Aminadabu tate ba Nashoni, ni Nashoni tate ba Salimoni,
And Aram begat Aminadab; and Aminadab begat Naasson; and Naasson begat Salmon;
5 Salimoni abile tate ba Boazi kwa Rahabu, Boazi tate ba Obedi kwa Ruth, Obedi tate ba Yese,
And Salmon begat Booz of Rachab; and Booz begat Obed of Ruth; and Obed begat Jesse;
6 Yese abile tate ba mpwalume Daudi, Daudi abile tate ba Sulemani kwa nnyumbo wa Uria.
And Jesse begat David the king; and David the king begat Solomon of her [that had been the wife] of Uriah;
7 Sulemani abile tate ba Rehoboamu, Rehoboamu tate ba Abiya, Abiya tate ba Asa.
And Solomon begat Roboam; and Roboam begat Abia; and Abia begat Asa;
8 Asa abile tate ba Yehishafati tate ba Yoramu, ni Yoramu tate ba Uzia.
And Asa begat Josaphat; and Josaphat begat Joram; and Joram begat Ozias;
9 Uzia abile tate ba Yothamu, Yothamu tate ba Ahazi, Ahazi tate ba Hezekia.
And Ozias begat Joatham; and Joatham begat Achaz; and Achaz begat Ezekias;
10 Hezekia abile tate ba Manase, Manase baba ba Amoni ni Amoni tate ba Yosia.
And Ezekias begat Manasses; and Manasses begat Amon; and Amon begat Josias;
11 Yosia abile tate ba Yekonia ni kaka bake wakati pabatolilwe yenda Babeli.
And Josias begat Jechonias and his brethren, about the time they were carried away to Babylon:
12 Ni baada ya tolelwa yenda Babeli, Yekonia abile tate ba Shatieli abile babu bake ni Zarubabeli.
And after they were brought to Babylon, Jechonias begat Salathiel; and Salathiel begat Zorobabel;
13 Zarubabeli abile tate ba Abiudi, Abiudi tate ba Eliakimu, ni Eliakimu tate ba Azori,
And Zorobabel begat Abiud; and Abiud begat Eliakim; and Eliakim begat Azor;
14 Azori abile tate ba Zadoki, Zadoki tate ba akimu, ni Akimu baba ba Eliudi.
And Azor begat Sadoc; and Sadoc begat Achim; and Achim begat Eliud;
15 Eliudi abile tate ba Eliaza, Eliaza tate ba Matani ni Matani tate ba Yakobo.
And Eliud begat Eleazar; and Eleazar begat Matthan; and Matthan begat Jacob;
16 Yakobo abile tate ba Yusufu nsengo wa Mariamu, ambaye kwa Yembe Yesu abelekilwe, ywa kemwa Kristo.
And Jacob begat Joseph the husband of Mary, of whom was born Jesus, who is called Christ.
17 Ibelei yoti tangu Ibrahimu hadi Daudi yabile ibelei komi ni ncheche, kuoma Daudi hadi kutoliwa yenda Babeli ibelei komi ni ncheche, ni kuoma kutoliwa yenda Babeli mpaka Kristo yabile ibelei komi ni ncheche.
So all the generations from Abraham to David [are] fourteen generations; and from David until the carrying away into Babylon [are] fourteen generations; and from the carrying away into Babylon to Christ [are] fourteen generations.
18 Belekwa kwa Yesu Kristo kwabile nyonyo, Mao bake, Mariamu, achumbilwe ni Yusufu, lakini babi bado gonja pamope, abonekine kubi ni ndumbo kwa uwezo ba Roho mtakatifu.
Now the birth of Jesus Christ was in this manner: When his mother Mary was espoused to Joseph, before they came together, she was found with child by the Holy Spirit.
19 Nchengo bake, Yusufu, abile mundu wa Nnongo apendi kwaa kumpeya oni. Amweni anneka kwa siri.
Then Joseph her husband, being a just [man], and not willing to make her a public example, purposed to put her away privately.
20 Pabilekagawaza kunani makowe ago, Malaika ba Ngwana ampili mundoto, kakoya, “Yusufu mwana wa Daudi, kana uyogope kuntola Mariamu kuba nnyumbo bako, kwa sababu ndumbo abi nayo ni kwa uweza wa Roho mtakatifu.
But while he thought on these things, the angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream, saying, Joseph, thou son of David, fear not to take to thee Mary thy wife: for that which is conceived in her is by the Holy Spirit.
21 Alowa beleka mwana nnalome ni walowa kunkema lina lyake Yesu, kati apala kubalopwa bandu bake kuoma musambi zabe.”
And she shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt call his name JESUS: for he shall save his people from their sins.
22 Ngoti yega yapitike kamirisha chelo sabakilwe kwa ndela ya manabii, kakoya,
Now all this was done, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken from the Lord by the prophet, saying,
23 Lola, bikira apatola ndumbo ni beleka mwana nnalome, ni akemwa lina lyake Imanueli maana yake, “Nnongo pamope natwenga.”
Behold, a virgin shall be with child, and shall bring forth a son, and they shall call his name Emmanuel, which being interpreted is, God with us.
24 Yusufu atiyumuka kuoma mulugono ni panga kati malaika wa Ngwana akoite nga atikumpotwa kati nnyumbo bake.
Then Joseph, being raised from sleep, did as the angel of the Lord had bidden him, and took to him his wife:
25 Palyo, agonjike kwaa nakwe mpaka paapapite mwana wake nnalome akemilwe lina lyake Yesu.
And knew her not till she had brought forth her first-born son: and he called his name JESUS.
