17 Il y a donc en tout quatorze générations depuis Abraham jusqu’à David, quatorze générations depuis David jusqu’à la déportation à Babylone, et quatorze générations depuis la déportation à Babylone jusqu’au Christ.
So all the generations from Abraham to David are fourteen generations; and from David to the exile to Babylon fourteen generations; and from the exile to Babylon to the Christ, fourteen generations.
18 Voici de quelle manière arriva la naissance de Jésus-Christ. Marie, sa mère, ayant été fiancée à Joseph, se trouva enceinte, par la vertu du Saint-Esprit, avant qu’ils eussent habité ensemble.
Now the birth of Jesus Christ happened like this. His mother Mary had been engaged to Joseph, and before they came together, she was found to be with child from the Holy Spirit.
19 Joseph, son époux, qui était un homme de bien et qui ne voulait pas la diffamer, se proposa de rompre secrètement avec elle.
And Joseph, her husband, being a righteous man, and not willing to make her a public example, intended to put her away secretly.
20 Comme il y pensait, voici, un ange du Seigneur lui apparut en songe, et dit: Joseph, fils de David, ne crains pas de prendre avec toi Marie, ta femme, car l’enfant qu’elle a conçu vient du Saint-Esprit;
But when he thought about these things, look, 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, your wife, for that which is conceived in her is of the Holy Spirit.
21 elle enfantera un fils, et tu lui donneras le nom de Jésus; c’est lui qui sauvera son peuple de ses péchés.
And she will bring forth a son, and you are to name him Jesus, for he will save his people from their sins."
22 Tout cela arriva afin que s’accomplît ce que le Seigneur avait annoncé par le prophète:
Now all this has happened, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the Lord through the prophet, saying,
23 Voici, la vierge sera enceinte, elle enfantera un fils, Et on lui donnera le nom d’Emmanuel, ce qui signifie Dieu avec nous.
"Look, the virgin will conceive and bear a son, and they will call his name Immanuel;" which is translated, "God with us."
24 Joseph s’étant réveillé fit ce que l’ange du Seigneur lui avait ordonné, et il prit sa femme avec lui.
And Joseph arose from his sleep, and did as the angel of the Lord commanded him, and took his wife to himself;
25 Mais il ne la connut point jusqu’à ce qu’elle eût enfanté un fils, auquel il donna le nom de Jésus.
and had no marital relations with her until she had brought forth a son; and he named him Jesus.
