16 and Jacob begat Joseph, the husband of Mary, of whom was born Jesus, who is called Christ.
Et Jacob engendra Joseph, l’époux de Marie, de laquelle est né Jésus, qu’on appelle Christ.
17 All 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.
Il y a donc en tout quatorze générations depuis Abraham jusqu’à David, quatorze générations depuis David jusqu’à la déportation à Babylone, quatorze générations depuis la déportation à Babylone jusqu’au Christ.
18 Now 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.
Or la naissance de Jésus-Christ arriva ainsi. Marie, sa mère, étant fiancée à Joseph, il se trouva, avant qu’ils eussent habité ensemble, qu’elle avait conçu par la vertu du Saint-Esprit.
19 But Joseph, her husband, being [a] righteous [man], and unwilling to expose her publicly, purposed to have put her away secretly;
Joseph, son mari, qui était un homme juste, ne voulant pas la diffamer, résolut de la renvoyer secrètement.
20 but 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.
Comme il était dans cette pensée, voici qu’un ange du Seigneur lui apparut en songe, et lui dit: « Joseph, fils de David, ne craint point de prendre avec toi Marie ton épouse, car ce qui est formé en elle est l’ouvrage du Saint-Esprit.
21 And she shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt call his name Jesus, for he shall save his people from their sins.
Et elle enfantera un fils, et tu lui donneras le nom de Jésus; car il sauvera son peuple de ses péchés. »
22 Now all this came to pass that that might be fulfilled which was spoken by [the] Lord, through the prophet, saying,
Or tout cela arriva afin que fût accompli ce qu’avait dit le Seigneur par le prophète:
23 Behold, 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.'
« Voici que la Vierge concevra et enfantera un fils; et on le nommera Emmanuel, » c’est à dire Dieu avec nous.
24 But Joseph, having awoke up from his sleep, did as the angel of [the] Lord had enjoined him, and took to [him] his wife,
Réveillé de son sommeil, Joseph fit ce que l’ange du Seigneur lui avait commandé: il prit avec lui Marie son épouse.
25 and knew her not until she had brought forth her firstborn son: and he called his name Jesus.
Mais il ne la connut point jusqu’à ce qu’elle enfantât son fils premier-né, à qui il donna le nom de Jésus.
