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.
En tout donc, d'Abraham jusqu'à David: quatorze générations. — De David jusqu'à la déportation à Babylone: quatorze générations. — De la déportation à Babylone jusqu'au Christ: quatorze générations.
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.
Voici comment Jésus-Christ vint au monde: Marie, sa mère, après avoir été fiancée à Joseph et avant qu'ils eussent vécu ensemble, se trouva enceinte par l'Esprit saint.
19 But Joseph, her husband, being [a] righteous [man], and unwilling to expose her publicly, purposed to have put her away secretly;
Or Joseph, son mari, était un juste. Ne voulant pas lui faire affront, il résolut de rompre avec elle sans bruits.
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 en cette pensée, un ange du Seigneur lui apparut en songe et lui dit: «Joseph, fils de David, n'hésite pas à recevoir chez toi, ta femme, Marie, car ce qu'elle a conçu est de l'Esprit saint.
21 And she shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt call his name Jesus, for he shall save his people from their sins.
Elle mettra un fils au monde et tu lui donneras le nom de Jésus; c'est lui, en effet, qui 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 que le Seigneur avait dit par le prophète en ces mots:
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 la vierge sera enceinte; elle mettra un fils au monde; Et on lui donnera le nom d'Emmanuel» ce qui signifie: 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,
Joseph, à son réveil, agit d'après les ordres de l'ange du Seigneur: il reçut sa femme chez lui;
25 and knew her not until she had brought forth her firstborn son: and he called his name Jesus.
et il ne la connut point avant qu'elle eût mis au monde un fils auquel il donna le nom de Jésus.
