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

⁶Ta Hehe ko Rawiri, ko te kingi; ta Rawiri kingi raua ko te wahine a Uria ko Horomona;

⁷and Solomon begat Roboam, and Roboam begat Abia, and Abia begat Asa,

⁷Ta Horomona ko Rehopoama; ta Rehopoama ko Apia; ta Apia ko Aha;

⁸and Asa begat Josaphat, and Josaphat begat Joram, and Joram begat Ozias,

⁸Ta Aha ko Iehohapata; ta Iehohapata ko Iorama; ta Iorama ko Ohiaha;

⁹and Ozias begat Joatham, and Joatham begat Achaz, and Achaz begat Ezekias,

⁹Ta Ohiaha ko Iotama; ta Iotama ko Ahata; ta Ahata ko Hetekia;

¹⁰and Ezekias begat Manasses, and Manasses begat Amon, and Amon begat Josias,

¹⁰Ta Hetekia ko Manahi; ta Manahi ko Amono; ta Amono ko Hohia;

¹¹and Josias begat Jechonias and his brethren, at the time of the carrying away of Babylon.

¹¹Ta Hohia ko Hekonia ratou ko ona teina; i te wa o te whakahekenga ki Papurona:

¹²And after the carrying away of Babylon, Jechonias begat Salathiel, and Salathiel begat Zorobabel,

¹²A, i muri i te whakahekenga atu ki Papurona, ka whanau ta Hekonia ko Haratiera; ta Haratiera ko Herupapera;

¹³and Zorobabel begat Abiud, and Abiud begat Eliakim, and Eliakim begat Azor,

¹³Ta Herupapera ko Apiuru; ta Apiuru ko Eriakimi; ta Eriakimi ko Atoro;

¹⁴and Azor begat Sadoc, and Sadoc begat Achim, and Achim begat Eliud,

¹⁴Ta Atoro ko Haroko; ta Haroko ko Akimi; ta Akimi ko Eriuru;

¹⁵and Eliud begat Eliazar, and Eliazar begat Matthan, and Matthan begat Jacob,

¹⁵Ta Eriuru ko Ereatara; ta Ereatara ko Matana; ta Matana ko Hakopa;

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

¹⁶Ta Hakopa ko Hohepa, ko te tahu a Meri; whanau ake ta Meri ko Ihu, e kiia nei ko te Karaiti.

¹⁷All the generations, therefore, from Abraham to David [were] fourteen generations; and from David until the carrying away of Babylon, fourteen generations; and from the carrying away of Babylon unto the Christ, fourteen generations.

¹⁷Heoi, ko nga whakatupuranga katoa o Aperahama tae noa ki a Rawiri tekau ma wha nga whakatupuranga; o Rawiri tae noa ki te whakahekenga ki Papurona tekau ma wha nga whakatupuranga; a no te whakahekenga ki Papurona tae noa ki a te Karaiti tekau ma wha nga whakatupuranga.

¹⁸Now the birth of Jesus Christ was thus: His mother, Mary, that is, having been betrothed to Joseph, before they came together, she was found to be with child of [the] Holy Spirit.

¹⁸¶ Na ko te whanautanga tenei o Ihu Karaiti: he mea taumau a Meri, tona whaea, ma Hohepa, a i te mea kiano raua i tata noa ki a raua, ka kitea kua hapu ia i te Wairua Tapu.

¹⁹But Joseph, her husband, being [a] righteous [man], and unwilling to expose her publicly, purposed to have put her away secretly;

¹⁹Otira he tangata tika tana tahu, a Hohepa, a kahore ona ngakau kia whakakitea nuitia ia, ka mea kia whakarerea pukutia.

²⁰but while he pondered on these things, behold, an angel of [the] Lord appeared to him in a dream, saying, Joseph, son of David, fear not to take to [thee] Mary, thy wife, for that which is begotten in her is of [the] Holy Spirit.

²⁰Otiia i a ia e hurihuri ana i enei mea, na, ka puta moemoea mai tetahi anahera a te Ariki ki a ia, ka mea, E Hohepa, e te tama a Rawiri, kaua e hopohopo ki te tango i a Meri, i tau wahine; na te Wairua Tapu hoki tona hapu.

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

²¹A e whanau ia he tama, me hua e koe tona ingoa ko IHU: no te mea mana e whakaora tona iwi i o ratou hara.

²²Now all this came to pass that that might be fulfilled which was spoken by [the] Lord, through the prophet, saying,

²²Na ka oti tenei katoa, katahi ka rite ta te Ariki, i korerotia e te poropiti, i mea ai ia,

²³Behold, the virgin shall be with child, and shall bring forth a son, and they shall call his name Emmanuel, which is, being interpreted, 'God with us.'

²³Na, ka hapu te wahine, ka whanau hoki he tama, a ka huaina e ratou tona ingoa ko Emanuera, ko tona whakamaoritanga tenei, Kei a tatou te Atua.

²⁴But Joseph, having awoke up from his sleep, did as the angel of [the] Lord had enjoined him, and took to [him] his wife,

²⁴A ka ara ake a Hohepa i te moe, ka meatia e ia ta te anahera a te Ariki i whakahau ai ki a ia, a tango ana ia i tana wahine:

²⁵and knew her not until she had brought forth her firstborn son: and he called his name Jesus.

²⁵A kihai i mohio ki a ia, whanau noa tana tama matamua: a huaina ana e ia tona ingoa ko IHU.
