17 So all the generations from Abraham to David are fourteen generations; from David to the exile to Babylon fourteen generations; and from the carrying away to Babylon to the Christ, fourteen generations.
Ainsi toutes les générations depuis Abraham jusqu'à David sont en tout quatorze générations; et depuis David jusqu'à la captivité de Babylone, quatorze générations; et depuis la captivité de Babylone jusqu'au Christ, quatorze générations.
18 Now the birth of Jesus Christ was like this: After his mother, Mary, was engaged to Joseph, before they came together, she was found pregnant by the Holy Spirit.
Or, la naissance de Jésus-Christ arriva ainsi: Marie, sa mère, ayant été fiancée à Joseph, se trouva enceinte par la vertu du Saint-Esprit, avant qu'ils eussent été ensemble.
19 Joseph, her husband, being a righteous man, and not willing to make her a public example, intended to put her away secretly.
Alors Joseph, son époux, étant un homme de bien, et ne voulant pas la diffamer, voulut la renvoyer secrètement.
20 But when he thought about these things, behold, an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream, saying, “Joseph, son of David, don’t be afraid to take to yourself Mary as your wife, for that which is conceived in her is of the Holy Spirit.
Mais comme il y pensait, voici, un ange du Seigneur lui apparut en songe, et lui dit: Joseph, fils de David, ne crains point de prendre Marie pour ta femme; car ce qui a été conçu en elle est du Saint-Esprit;
21 She shall give birth to a son. You shall name him Jesus, for it is he who shall save his people from their sins.”
Et elle enfantera un fils, et tu lui donneras le nom de JÉSUS (Sauveur); car c'est lui qui sauvera son peuple de leurs péchés.
22 Now all this has happened that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the Lord through the prophet, saying,
Or, tout cela arriva, afin que s'accomplît ce que le Seigneur avait dit en ces termes par le prophète:
23 “Behold, the virgin shall be with child, and shall give birth to a son. They shall call his name Immanuel,” which is, being interpreted, “God with us.”
Voici, la vierge sera enceinte, et elle enfantera un fils, et on le nommera EMMANUEL, ce qui signifie: DIEU AVEC NOUS.
24 Joseph arose from his sleep, and did as the angel of the Lord commanded him, and took his wife to himself;
Quand Joseph fut réveillé de son sommeil, il fit comme l'ange du Seigneur lui avait commandé, et il prit sa femme.
25 and didn’t know her sexually until she had given birth to her firstborn son. He named him Jesus.
Mais il ne la connut point jusqu'à ce qu'elle eût enfanté son fils premier-né, et il lui donna le nom de JÉSUS.
