17Pea ko e toʻutangata kotoa pē meia ʻEpalahame ʻo aʻu kia Tevita ko e toʻutangata ʻe hongofulu ma fā; pea meia Tevita ʻo aʻu ki he fetuku ki Papilone ko e toʻutangata ʻe hongofulu ma fā; pea mei he fetuku ki Papilone ʻo aʻu ki he Kalaisi ko e toʻutangata ʻe hongofulu ma fā.
18Now 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.
18Pea naʻe pehē ʻae ʻaloʻi ʻo Sisu Kalaisi: Kuo fakanofo ʻene faʻē ko Mele kia Siosefa, pea teʻeki ai te na feʻiloaki, kae ʻiloange, kuo feitama ia ʻi he Laumālie Māʻoniʻoni.
19Joseph, her husband, being a righteous man, and not willing to make her a public example, intended to put her away secretly.
19Pea ko Siosefa ko hono husepāniti, ko e tangata angatonu, pea naʻe ʻikai ʻi hono loto ke talaki fakahā ia, ka naʻa ne tokanga ke tukuange fakafufū pe ia.
20But when he thought about these things, behold, an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream, saying, “Joseph, son of David, don’t be afraid to take to yourself Mary as your wife, for that which is conceived in her is of the Holy Spirit.
20Kae lolotonga ʻene fifili ki he ngaahi meʻa ni, ʻiloange, kuo hā mai kiate ia ha ʻāngelo ʻae ʻEiki ʻi he misi, ʻo ne pehē, “Siosefa, foha ʻo Tevita, ʻoua te ke manavahē ke maʻu ʻa Mele ko ho uaifi: he ko ia kuo fakatupu ʻiate ia ʻoku mei he Laumālie Māʻoniʻoni.
21She shall give birth to a son. You shall name him Jesus, for it is he who shall save his people from their sins.”
21Pea te ne fāʻeleʻi ʻae tama, pea te ke ui hono huafa, ko SISU: ko ia ia te ne fakamoʻui hono kakai mei heʻenau ngaahi angahala.”
22Now all this has happened that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the Lord through the prophet, saying,
22Pea naʻe fai ʻeni kotoa pē koeʻuhi ke fakamoʻoni ʻaia naʻe folofolaʻaki ʻe he ʻEiki ʻi he palōfita, ʻo pehē,
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.”
23“Vakai, ʻe feitama ʻae tāupoʻou, pea ʻe fāʻeleʻi ʻae tama, pea ʻe ui hono huafa, ko ʻImanuela:” ko hono ʻuhinga “Ko e ʻOtua ʻiate kitautolu.”
24Joseph arose from his sleep, and did as the angel of the Lord commanded him, and took his wife to himself;
24Pea kuo tuʻu hake ʻa Siosefa mei he mohe, pea fai ʻe ia ʻo hangē ko e fekau ʻae ʻāngelo ʻae ʻEiki kiate ia, ʻo ne ʻomi ʻa hono uaifi:
25and didn’t know her sexually until she had given birth to her firstborn son. He named him Jesus.
25Ka naʻe ʻikai te na feʻiloaki kaeʻoua ke ʻaloʻi ʻe ia ʻa ʻene ʻuluaki tama: pea ne ui hono huafa ko SISU.
