17 [As you can calculate, I have grouped Jesus’] ancestors [as follows: ] There was [a succession of] 14 of them from [the time when] Abraham [lived] to [the time when King] David [lived]. There was [a succession of] 14 of them from [the time when] David [lived] to [the time when] the [Israelites were taken] {[the Babylonian army took the Israelites]} away to Babylon. There was [a succession of] 14 of them from [the time when the Israelites were taken] {[the Babylonian army took the Israelites]} away to Babylon until [the time when] the Messiah [was born].
Assim, todas as gerações de Abraão a Davi são catorze gerações; de Davi ao exílio à Babilônia, catorze gerações; e do transporte para a Babilônia ao Cristo, catorze gerações.
18 This is [the account of what happened just before] Jesus Christ was born. Mary, his mother, {had publicly promised Joseph that she would marry him} had been publicly promised to marry Joseph. Before they began to sleep together, [Mary] realized that she was pregnant. [It was the power of] the Holy Spirit that had caused her to become pregnant.
Agora o nascimento de Jesus Cristo foi assim: Depois que sua mãe, Maria, foi noiva de José, antes de se unirem, ela foi encontrada grávida pelo Espírito Santo.
19 Joseph, her [future] husband, was a man who obeyed God’s commands. [One of those commands was that men must divorce women who had acted immorally. So when Joseph learned that Mary was pregnant, he assumed that she was pregnant as a result of her acting immorally]. So he decided to break the engagement. But because he did not want to shame her publicly, he decided to do it privately.
José, seu marido, sendo um homem justo, e não disposto a fazer dela um exemplo público, pretendia prendê-la em segredo.
20 While he was seriously considering this, much to his surprise, in a dream he saw an angel whom the Lord [had sent]. The angel said, “Joseph, descendant of [King] David, do not be afraid that [you(sg) would be doing wrong if you(sg) would marry] Mary. Instead, [begin to treat her] as your wife, because the Holy Spirit, [not a man], has caused her to be pregnant.
Mas quando ele pensou nestas coisas, eis que um anjo do Senhor lhe apareceu num sonho, dizendo: “José, filho de Davi, não tenha medo de tomar para si Maria como sua esposa, pois o que nela é concebido é do Espírito Santo.
21 She will give birth to a son. Since it is he who will cause that his people will be saved from [the guilt of] their having sinned, name [the baby] Jesus, [which means ‘the Lord saves people’].”
Ela deve dar à luz um filho. Dareis-lhe o nome de Jesus, pois é ele quem salvará seu povo de seus pecados”.
22 All this happened as a result of what the Lord told the prophet [Isaiah to write long ago about what was going to happen]. This is what Isaiah wrote:
Agora tudo isso aconteceu para que pudesse ser cumprido o que foi dito pelo Senhor através do profeta, dizendo
23 “Listen, a virgin will become pregnant and will give birth to a son. They will call him Emmanuel.” Emmanuel means ‘God is with us’.
“Eis que a virgem deve estar com criança, e deve dar à luz um filho. Eles chamarão seu nome Immanuel”. que é, sendo interpretado, “Deus conosco”.
24 When Joseph got up from sleep, he did what the angel whom the Lord [had sent] commanded him to do. He took [Mary] home to be his wife.
Joseph surgiu de seu sono, e fez como o anjo do Senhor lhe ordenou, e levou sua esposa para si;
25 But he did not have sexual relations with her until she had given birth to a son. And [Joseph] named him Jesus.
e não a conhecia sexualmente até que ela deu à luz seu filho primogênito. Ele lhe deu o nome de Jesus.
