19Joseph, her husband, being a righteous man, and not willing to make her a public example, intended to put her away secretly.
20 Amma za a goono ga woodin fongu nga bina ra, kal Rabbi* malayka bangay a se hindiri ra ka ne a se: «Yusufu, Dawda izo, ma si humburu Maryama hiija, naŋ a ma ciya ni wande, zama izo kaŋ go a gunda ra din, Biya Hanno do wane no.
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, your wife, for that which is conceived in her is of the Holy Spirit.
21 A ga ize aru hay, ni g'a maa daŋ Yesu mo, zama nga no ga nga borey faaba i zunubey gaa.»
21She shall bring forth a son. You shall call his name Jesus, for it is he who shall save his people from their sins.”
22 Woodin kulu mo, a ciya no zama i ma Rabbi sanno kaŋ a ci annabi* do din toonandi kaŋ ne:
22Now all this has happened, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the Lord through the prophet, saying,
23 «Guna, wandiyo ga te gunde, a ga ize aru hay mo, i g'a maa daŋ Immanuwel,» (danga, Irikoy go iri game ra nooya.)
23“Behold, the virgin shall be with child, and shall bring forth a son. They shall call his name Immanuel”; which is, being interpreted, “God with us.”
24 Yusufu tun nga jirbo gaa ka te sanda mate kaŋ cine Rabbi malayka na nga lordi* nd'a. A na nga wando sambu.
