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.
The birth of Jesus Christ took place in this way. After his mother, Mary, had been betrothed to Joseph, before they came together, she was found to be with child by 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.
But Joseph her husband, because he was just a man and unwilling to disgrace her, was minded 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;
And while he was having this in mind, behold! an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream, saying.
21 elle enfantera un fils, et tu lui donneras le nom de Jésus; c’est lui qui sauvera son peuple de ses péchés.
"Joseph, son of David, do not be afraid to take Mary your wife home, for what is begotten in her is by the Holy Spirit; and she will bear a son, and you are to call 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:
All this happened that the word of the Lord spoken through the prophet might be fulfilled.
23 Voici, la vierge sera enceinte, elle enfantera un fils, Et on lui donnera le nom d’Emmanuel, ce qui signifie Dieu avec nous.
Behold! the virgin shall be with child, and shall bear a son; and they shall call his name Immanuel, a word which means "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.
Now when Joseph awoke from his sleep he did as the angel of the Lord had directed him, and took his wife home,
25 Mais il ne la connut point jusqu’à ce qu’elle eût enfanté un fils, auquel il donna le nom de Jésus.
but did not live with her until after the birth of her son, whom he called Jesus.
