17 所以從亞巴郎到達味共十四代，從達味到流徙巴比倫共十四代，從流徙巴比倫到基督共十四代。
So in all there were fourteen generations from Abraham to David, fourteen generations from David to the Babylonian resettlement, and fourteen generations from the Babylonian resettlement to the Christ.
18 耶穌基督的誕生是這樣的：衪的母親許配於若瑟後，在同居前，她因聖神有孕的事已顯示出來。
Now the birth of Jesus Christ took place in this way. When his mother Mary had been betrothed to Joseph, before they came together, she was found to be with child from the Holy Spirit.
19 她的丈夫若瑟，因是義人，不願公開羞她，有意暗暗地休退她。
Because her husband Joseph was a righteous man and did not want to shame her publicly, he intended to send her away privately.
20 當他在思慮這事時，看，在夢人上主的天使顯現給他說：「達味之子若瑟，不要怕娶你的妻子瑪利亞，因為那在她內受生的，是出於聖神。
But as he thought about these things, behold, an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream and said, “Joseph, Son of David, do not be afraid to receive Mary as yoʋr wife, for the child that is conceived in her is from the Holy Spirit.
21 她要生一個兒子，妳要給衪起名叫耶穌，因為衪要把自己的民族，由他們的罪惡中拯救出來。」
She will give birth to a son, and yoʋ shall name him Jesus, for he will save his people from their sins.”
22 這一切事的發生，是為應驗上主藉先知所說的話：
All this took place to fulfill what the Lord had spoken through the prophet:
23 「看，一位貞女，將懷孕生子，人將稱衪的名字為厄瑪奴耳，意思是：天主與我們同在。
“Behold, the virgin will conceive and give birth to a son, and they will name him Immanuel” (which means, “God with us”).
24 若瑟從睡夢中醒來，就照上主的天使所囑咐的辦了，娶了他的妻子；
When Joseph awoke from his sleep, he did as the angel of the Lord had commanded him. He took his wife
25 若瑟雖然沒認識她，她就生了一個兒子，給衪起名叫耶穌。
but had no marital relations with her until she had given birth to her firstborn son. And he named him Jesus.
