¹The book of the generation of Jesus Christ, the son of David, the son of Abraham.

⁶And Jesse begat David the king; and David the king begat Solomon of her that had been the wife of Urias;

⁶ miy baayu buur bi Daawuda. Daawuda moo jur Suleymaan ci ki nekkoon jabari Uri;

⁷And Solomon begat Roboam; and Roboam begat Abia; and Abia begat Asa;

⁷ Suleymaan jur Robowam; Robowam Abiya; Abiya Asaf;

⁸And Asa begat Josaphat; and Josaphat begat Joram; and Joram begat Ozias;

⁹And Ozias begat Joatham; and Joatham begat Achaz; and Achaz begat Ezekias;

¹⁰And Ezekias begat Manasses; and Manasses begat Amon; and Amon begat Josias;

¹⁰ Esekiyas Manase; Manase Amon; Amon Yosiyas;

¹¹And Josias begat Jechonias and his brethren, about the time they were carried away to Babylon:

¹¹ Yosiyas jur Yekoñas ak i doomi baayam ca jamono, ja ñu defe Yawut ya jaam, yóbbu leen Babilon.

¹²And after they were brought to Babylon, Jechonias begat Salathiel; and Salathiel begat Zorobabel;

¹² Ba ñu leen yóbboo ca Babilon, Yekoñas jur Salacel; Salacel Sorobabel,

¹³And Zorobabel begat Abiud; and Abiud begat Eliakim; and Eliakim begat Azor;

¹⁶And Jacob begat Joseph the husband of Mary, of whom was born Jesus, who is called Christ.

¹⁶ Yanqóoba nag moo jur Yuusufa jëkkëru Maryaama; te ci Maryaama la Yeesu, mi ñuy wax Kirist, juddoo.

¹⁷So 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 unto Christ are fourteen generations.

¹⁷ Mboolem giir googu nag, la dale ca Ibraayma ba ca Daawuda, fukk lañu ak ñeent; la dale ca Daawuda ba ca njaam ga ca Babilon, fukk lañu ak ñeent; la dale njaam ga ca Babilon ba ci Kirist, fukk lañu ak ñeent.

¹⁸Now the birth of Jesus Christ was on this wise: When as his mother Mary was espoused to Joseph, before they came together, she was found with child of the Holy Ghost.

¹⁸ Nii la Yeesu Kirist juddoo. Bi ñu mayee Maryaama ndeyam Yuusufa, waaye laata ñoo ànd, gis nañu ne dafa ëmb ci kàttanu Xel mu Sell mi.

¹⁹Then Joseph her husband, being a just man, and not willing to make her a publick example, was minded to put her away privily.

¹⁹ Yuusufa jëkkëram nag, nekkoon na nit ku jub te bëggu ko woon a weer. Mu nar a xàccook moom ci sutura.

²⁰But while he thought on these things, behold, the angel of the LORD appeared unto him in a dream, saying, Joseph, thou son of David, fear not to take unto thee Mary thy wife: for that which is conceived in her is of the Holy Ghost.

²⁰ Waaye bi muy xalaat ci loolu, benn malaakam Boroom bi daldi ko feeñu ci gént ne ko: «Yaw Yuusufa, sëtu Daawuda, bul ragal a yeggali Maryaama sa jabar, ndaxte doom ji mu ëmb, ci Xel mu Sell mi la jóge.

²¹And she shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt call his name JESUS: for he shall save his people from their sins.

²¹ Dina jur doom ju góor; na nga ko tudde Yeesu, ndaxte moo di kiy musal xeetam ci seeni bàkkaar.»

²²Now all this was done, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken of the Lord by the prophet, saying,

²² Loolu lépp xewoon na, ngir amal li Boroom bi wax, jaarale ko cib yonent, bi mu naan:

²³Behold, 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.

²³ «Janq bi dina ëmb,jur doom ju góor,ñu tudde ko Emanuwel,» liy tekki «Yàlla ganesi na nu.»

²⁴Then Joseph being raised from sleep did as the angel of the Lord had bidden him, and took unto him his wife:

²⁴ Noonu Yuusufa yeewu, yeggali jabaram, na ko ko malaakam Boroom bi sante woon.

²⁵And knew her not till she had brought forth her firstborn son: and he called his name JESUS.

²⁵ Waaye àndul ak moom, ba kera mu mucc, jur doom ju góor; mu tudde ko Yeesu.
