1The book of the generation of Jesus Christ, the son of David, the son of Abraham:
1Yesu Kristo alikuwa mzawa wa Daudi, mzawa wa Abrahamu. Hii ndiyo orodha ya ukoo wake:
2Abraham begot Isaac. And Isaac begot Jacob. And Jacob begot Judas and his brethren.
2Abrahamu alimzaa Isaka, Isaka alimzaa Yakobo, Yakobo alimzaa Yuda na ndugu zake,
3And Judas begot Phares and Zara of Thamar. And Phares begot Esron. And Esron begot Aram.

4And Aram begot Aminadab. And Aminadab begot Naasson. And Naasson begot Salmon.
4Rami alimzaa Aminadabu, Aminadabu alimzaa Nashoni, Nashoni alimzaa Salmoni,
5And Salmon begot Booz of Rahab. And Booz begot Obed of Ruth. And Obed begot Jesse.
5Salmoni alimzaa Boazi (mama yake Boazi alikuwa Rahabu). Boazi na Ruthi walikuwa wazazi wa Obedi, Obedi alimzaa Yese,
6And Jesse begot David the king. And David the king begot Solomon, of her that had been the wife of Urias.
6naye Yese alimzaa Mfalme Daudi. Daudi alimzaa Solomoni (mama yake Solomoni alikuwa mke wa Uria).
7And Solomon begot Roboam. And Roboam begot Abia. And Abia begot Asa.
7Solomoni alimzaa Rehoboamu, Rehoboamu alimzaa Abiya, Abiya alimzaa Asa,
8And Asa begot Josaphat. And Josaphat begot Joram. And Joram begot Ozias.
8Asa alimzaa Yehoshafati, Yehoshafati alimzaa Yoramu, Yoramu alimzaa Uzia,
9And Ozias begot Joatham. And Joatham begot Achaz. And Achaz begot Ezechias.
9Uzia alimzaa Yothamu, Yothamu alimzaa Ahazi, Ahazi alimzaa Hezekia,
10And Ezechias begot Manasses. And Manesses begot Amon. And Amon begot Josias.
10Hezekia alimzaa Manase, Manase alimzaa Amoni, Amoni alimzaa Yosia,
11And Josias begot Jechonias and his brethren in the transmigration of Babylon.
11Yosia alimzaa Yekonia na ndugu zake. Huo ulikuwa wakati Wayahudi walipopelekwa uhamishoni Babuloni.
12And after the transmigration of Babylon, Jechonias begot Salathiel. And Salathiel begot Zorobabel.
12Baada ya Wayahudi kupelekwa uhamishomi Babuloni: Yekonia alimzaa Shealtieli, Shealtieli alimzaa Zerobabeli,
13And Zorobabel begot Abiud. And Abiud begot Eliacim. And Eliacim begot Azor.
13Zerobabeli alimzaa Abiudi, Abiudi alimzaa Eliakimu, Eliakimu alimzaa Azori,
14And Azor begot Sadoc. And Sadoc begot Achim. And Achim begot Eliud.
14Azori alimzaa Zadoki, Zadoki alimzaa Akimu, Akimu alimzaa Eliudi,
15And Eliud begot Eleazar. And Eleazar begot Mathan. And Mathan begot Jacob.
15Eliudi alimzaa Eleazeri, Eleazeri alimzaa Mathani, Mathani alimzaa Yakobo,
16And Jacob begot Joseph the husband of Mary, of whom was born Jesus, who is called Christ.
16Yakobo alimzaa Yosefu, aliyekuwa mume wake Maria, mama yake Yesu, aitwaye Kristo.
17So all the generations, from Abraham to David, are fourteen generations. And from David to the transmigration of Babylon, are fourteen generations: and from the transmigration of Babylon to Christ are fourteen generations.
17Basi, kulikuwa na vizazi kumi na vinne tangu Abrahamu mpaka Daudi, vizazi kumi na vinne tangu Daudi mpaka Wayahudi walipochukuliwa mateka Babuloni, na vizazi kumi na vinne tangu kuchukuliwa mateka mpaka wakati wa Kristo.
18Now the generation of Christ was in this wise. When as his mother Mary was espoused to Joseph, before they came together, she was found with child, of the Holy Ghost.
18Basi, hivi ndivyo Yesu Kristo alivyozaliwa: Maria, mama yake, alikuwa ameposwa na Yosefu. Lakini kabla hawajakaa pamoja kama mume na mke, alionekana kuwa mja mzito kwa uwezo wa Roho Mtakatifu.
19Whereupon Joseph her husband, being a just man, and not willing publicly to expose her, was minded to put her away privately.
19Yosefu, mumewe, kwa vile alikuwa mwadilifu, hakutaka kumwaibisha hadharani; hivyo alikusudia kumwacha kwa siri.
20But while he thought on these things, behold the angel of the Lord appeared to him in his sleep, saying: Joseph, son of David, fear not to take unto thee Mary thy wife, for that which is conceived in her, is of the Holy Ghost.
20Alipokuwa bado anawaza jambo hilo, malaika wa Bwana alimtokea katika ndoto, akamwambia, “Yosefu, mwana wa Daudi, usiogope kumchukua Maria awe mke wako, maana amekuwa mja mzito kwa uwezo wa Roho Mtakatifu.
21And she shall bring forth a son: and thou shalt call his name JESUS. For he shall save his people from their sins.
21Atajifungua mtoto wa kiume, nawe utampa jina Yesu, kwa kuwa yeye atawaokoa watu wake kutoka katika dhambi zao.”
22Now all this was done that it might be fulfilled which the Lord spoke by the prophet, saying:
22Basi, haya yote yalitukia ili litimie lile neno Bwana alilosema kwa njia ya nabii:
23Behold a virgin shall be with child, and bring forth a son, and they shall call his name Emmanuel, which being interpreted is, God with us.
23“Bikira atachukua mimba, atamzaa mtoto wa kiume, naye ataitwa Emanueli” (maana yake, “Mungu yu pamoja nasi”).
24And Joseph rising up from sleep, did as the angel of the Lord had commanded him, and took unto him his wife.
24Hivyo, Yosefu alipoamka usingizini alifanya kama malaika huyo alivyomwambia, akamchukua mke wake nyumbani.
25And he knew her not till she brought forth her firstborn son: and he called his name JESUS.
25Lakini hakumjua kamwe kimwili hata Maria alipojifungua mtoto wa kiume. Naye Yosefu akampa jina Yesu.
