17 Näin on sukupolvia Aabrahamista Daavidiin kaikkiaan neljätoista polvea, ja Daavidista Babyloniin siirtämiseen neljätoista polvea, ja Babyloniin siirtämisestä Kristukseen asti neljätoista polvea.
So all the generations from Abraham to David are fourteen generations; from David to the exile to Babylon fourteen generations; and from the carrying away to Babylon to the Christ, fourteen generations.
18 Jeesuksen Kristuksen syntyminen oli näin. Kun hänen äitinsä Maria oli kihlattu Joosefille, huomattiin hänen ennen heidän yhteenmenoaan olevan raskaana Pyhästä Hengestä.
Now the birth of Jesus Christ was like this: After his mother, Mary, was engaged to Joseph, before they came together, she was found pregnant by the Holy Spirit.
19 Mutta kun Joosef, hänen miehensä, oli hurskas, ja koska hän ei tahtonut saattaa häntä häpeään, aikoi hän salaisesti hyljätä hänet.
Joseph, her husband, being a righteous man, and not willing to make her a public example, intended to put her away secretly.
20 Mutta kun hän tätä ajatteli, niin katso, hänelle ilmestyi unessa Herran enkeli, joka sanoi: "Joosef, Daavidin poika, älä pelkää ottaa tykösi Mariaa, vaimoasi; sillä se, mikä hänessä on siinnyt, on Pyhästä Hengestä.
But when he thought about these things, behold, an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream, saying, “Joseph, son of David, do not be afraid to take to yourself Mary as your wife, for that which is conceived in her is of the Holy Spirit.
21 Ja hän on synnyttävä pojan, ja sinun on annettava hänelle nimi Jeesus, sillä hän on vapahtava kansansa heidän synneistänsä."
She shall give birth to a son. You shall name him Jesus, for it is he who shall save his people from their sins.”
22 Tämä kaikki on tapahtunut, että kävisi toteen, minkä Herra on puhunut profeetan kautta, joka sanoo:
Now all this has happened that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the Lord through the prophet, saying,
23 "Katso, neitsyt tulee raskaaksi ja synnyttää pojan, ja tälle on annettava nimi Immanuel", mikä käännettynä on: Jumala meidän kanssamme.
“Behold, the virgin shall be with child, and shall give birth to a son. They shall call his name Immanuel,” which is, being interpreted, “God with us.”
24 Herättyään unesta Joosef teki, niinkuin Herran enkeli oli käskenyt hänen tehdä, ja otti vaimonsa tykönsä
Joseph arose from his sleep, and did as the angel of the Lord commanded him, and took his wife to himself;
25 eikä yhtynyt häneen, ennenkuin hän oli synnyttänyt pojan. Ja hän antoi hänelle nimen Jeesus.
and did not know her sexually until she had given birth to her firstborn son. He named him Jesus.
