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.

¹⁸And of Jesus Christ, the birth was thus: For his mother Mary having been betrothed to Joseph, before their coming together she was found to have conceived from the Holy Spirit,

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

¹⁹and Joseph her husband being righteous, and not willing to make her an example, did wish privately to send her away.

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.

²⁰And on his thinking of these things, lo, a messenger of the Lord in a dream appeared to him, saying, `Joseph, son of David, thou mayest not fear to receive Mary thy wife, for that which in her was begotten [is] of the Holy Spirit,

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

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

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

²²And all this hath come to pass, that it may be fulfilled that was spoken by the Lord through the prophet, saying,

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

²³`Lo, the virgin shall conceive, and she shall bring forth a son, and they shall call his name Emmanuel,` which is, being interpreted `With us [he is] God.`

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

²⁴And Joseph, having risen from the sleep, did as the messenger of the Lord directed him, and received his wife,

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

²⁵and did not know her till she brought forth her son — the first-born, and he called his name Jesus.
