17 Il y a donc en tout, d’Abraham jusqu’à David, quatorze générations; de David jusqu’à la transmigration de Babylone, quatorze générations; et de la transmigration de Babylone jusqu’au Christ, quatorze générations.
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 Or telle fut la naissance du Christ: Marie, sa mère, étant fiancée à Joseph, avant qu’ils vinssent ensemble, il se trouva qu’elle avait conçu de l’Esprit-Saint.
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 Mais Joseph, son mari, qui était un homme juste, ne voulant pas la diffamer, résolut de la renvoyer secrètement.
And Joseph, her husband, being a righteous man, and not willing to make her a public example, intended to put her away secretly.
20 Et comme il pensait à ces choses, voici qu’un ange du Seigneur lui apparut en songe, disant: Joseph, fils de David, ne crains point de prendre avec toi Marie, ta femme; car ce qui a été engendré en elle est 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 auquel tu donneras le nom de Jésus; car 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 Or tout cela se fit pour que fût accomplie cette parole que le Seigneur a dite par le prophète:
Now all this has happened, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the Lord through the prophet, saying,
23 Voilà que la Vierge concevra, et enfantera un fils, et on le nommera Emmanuel, ce que l’on interprète par: 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 Ainsi réveillé de son sommeil, Joseph fit comme l’ange du Seigneur lui avait ordonné, et 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 Or il ne l’avait point connue, quand elle enfanta son fils premier-né, à qui 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.
