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 circumstances of the birth of Jesus Christ were these. After his mother Mary was betrothed to Joseph, before they were united in marriage, she was found to be with child through 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, being a kind-hearted man and unwilling publicly to disgrace her, had determined to release her privately from the betrothal.
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 while he was contemplating this step, an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream and said, "Joseph, son of David, do not be afraid to bring home your wife Mary, for she is with child through 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.
She will give birth to a Son, and you are to call His name JESUS for He it is who 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 took place in fulfilment of what the Lord had spoken through the Prophet,
23 Voici, la vierge sera enceinte, elle enfantera un fils, Et on lui donnera le nom d’Emmanuel, ce qui signifie Dieu avec nous.
"Mark! The maiden will be with child and will give birth to a son, and they will call His name Immanuel" --a word which signifies '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.
When Joseph awoke, he did as the angel of the Lord had commanded, and brought home his wife,
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 she had given birth to a son. The child's name he called JESUS.
