16 and Jacob the father of Joseph, the husband of Mary, of whom was born Jesus, who is called Christ.
Jacob engendra Joseph, le mari de Marie, de laquelle naquit Jésus qui est appelé Christ.
17 In all, then, there were fourteen generations from Abraham to David, fourteen from David to the exile to Babylon, and fourteen from the exile to the Christ.
Toutes les générations forment donc d'Abraham jusques à David, quatorze générations, et de David jusques à la déportation de Babylone, quatorze générations, et de la déportation de Babylone jusques au Christ, quatorze générations.
18 This is how the birth of Jesus Christ came about: His mother Mary was pledged in marriage to Joseph, but before they came together, she was found to be with child through the Holy Spirit.
Or, voici quelle fut la naissance du Christ Jésus: Sa mère Marie ayant été fiancée à Joseph, avant qu'ils eussent vécu ensemble elle se trouva enceinte par l'action de l'Esprit Saint.
19 Because Joseph her husband was a righteous man and was unwilling to disgrace her publicly, he resolved to divorce her quietly.
Mais, comme Joseph son mari était un homme juste et qui ne voulait pas la déceler, il se résolut à la répudier secrètement.
20 But after he had pondered these things, an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream and said, “Joseph, son of David, do not be afraid to embrace Mary as your wife, for the One conceived in her is from the Holy Spirit.
Or, après qu'il eut formé ce projet, voici, un ange du Seigneur lui apparut en songe, disant: « Joseph, fils de David, ne crains point de garder Marie pour ta femme, car ce qui a été engendré en elle vient de l'Esprit Saint;
21 She will give birth to a Son, and you are to give Him the name Jesus, because He will save His people from their sins.”
or elle mettra au monde un fils, et tu lui donneras le nom de Jésus, car c'est lui qui sauvera son peuple de leurs péchés. » —
22 All this took place to fulfill what the Lord had said through the prophet:
Or tout cela est advenu afin que fût accompli ce dont le Seigneur a parlé par l'entremise du prophète lorsqu'il dit:
23 “Behold, the virgin will be with child and will give birth to a son, and they will call Him Immanuel” (which means, “God with us”).
« Voici, la vierge sera enceinte, et elle mettra au monde un fils, et ils lui donneront le nom d'Emmanouel; » ce qui signifie, étant traduit: Avec nous Dieu. —
24 When Joseph woke up, he did as the angel of the Lord had commanded him, and embraced Mary as his wife.
Or Joseph s'étant éveillé de son sommeil agit comme le lui avait prescrit l'ange du Seigneur, et il garda sa femme;
25 But he had no union with her until she gave birth to a Son. And he gave Him the name Jesus.
et il ne la connaissait point jusqu'à ce qu'elle eût mis au monde un fils, et il lui donna le nom de Jésus.
