And so, all the generations from Abraham to David are fourteen generations; and from David to the transmigration of Babylon, fourteen generations; and from the transmigration of Babylon to the Christ, fourteen generations.
18 Christi autem generatio sic erat: Cum esset desponsata mater eius Maria Ioseph, antequam convenirent, inventa est in utero habens de Spiritu sancto.
Now the procreation of the Christ occurred in this way. After his mother Mary had been betrothed to Joseph, before they lived together, she was found to have conceived in her womb by the Holy Spirit.
19 Ioseph autem vir eius cum esset iustus, et nollet eam traducere: voluit occulte dimittere eam.
Then Joseph, her husband, since he was just and was not willing to hand her over, preferred to send her away secretly.
20 Hæc autem eo cogitante, ecce Angelus Domini apparuit in somnis ei, dicens: Ioseph fili David, noli timere accipere Mariam coniugem tuam: quod enim in ea natum est, de Spiritu sancto est.
But while thinking over these things, behold, an Angel of the Lord appeared to him in his sleep, saying: “Joseph, son of David, do not be afraid to accept Mary as your wife. For what has been formed in her is of the Holy Spirit.
21 pariet autem filium: et vocabis nomen eius IESUM: ipse enim salvum faciet populum suum a peccatis eorum.
And she shall give birth to a son. And you shall call his name JESUS. For he shall accomplish the salvation of his people from their sins.”
22 Hoc autem totum factum est, ut adimpleretur quod dictum est a Domino per Prophetam dicentem:
Now all this occurred in order to fulfill what was spoken by the Lord through the prophet, saying:
23 Ecce virgo in utero habebit, et pariet filium. et vocabunt nomen eius Emmanuel, quod est interpretatum Nobiscum Deus.
“Behold, a virgin shall conceive in her womb, and she shall give birth to a son. And they shall call his name Emmanuel, which means: God is with us.”
24 Exurgens autem Ioseph a somno, fecit sicut præcepit ei angelus Domini, et accepit coniugem suam.
Then Joseph, arising from sleep, did just as the Angel of the Lord had instructed him, and he accepted her as his wife.
25 Et non cognoscebat eam donec peperit filium suum primogenitum: et vocavit nomen eius Iesum.
And he knew her not, yet she bore her son, the firstborn. And he called his name JESUS.
