А Јаков роди Јосифа, мужа Марије, која роди Исуса прозваног Христа.
17 [As you can calculate, I have grouped Jesus’] ancestors [as follows: ] There was [a succession of] 14 of them from [the time when] Abraham [lived] to [the time when King] David [lived]. There was [a succession of] 14 of them from [the time when] David [lived] to [the time when] the [Israelites were taken] {[the Babylonian army took the Israelites]} away to Babylon. There was [a succession of] 14 of them from [the time when the Israelites were taken] {[the Babylonian army took the Israelites]} away to Babylon until [the time when] the Messiah [was born].
Свега дакле колена од Аврама до Давида, колена четрнаест, а од Давида до сеобе вавилонске, колена четрнаест, а од сеобе вавилонске до Христа, колена четрнаест.
18 This is [the account of what happened just before] Jesus Christ was born. Mary, his mother, {had publicly promised Joseph that she would marry him} had been publicly promised to marry Joseph. Before they began to sleep together, [Mary] realized that she was pregnant. [It was the power of] the Holy Spirit that had caused her to become pregnant.
А рођење Исуса Христа било је овако: кад је Марија, мати Његова, била испрошена за Јосифа, а још док се нису били састали, нађе се да је она трудна од Духа Светог.
19 Joseph, her [future] husband, was a man who obeyed God’s commands. [One of those commands was that men must divorce women who had acted immorally. So when Joseph learned that Mary was pregnant, he assumed that she was pregnant as a result of her acting immorally]. So he decided to break the engagement. But because he did not want to shame her publicly, he decided to do it privately.
А Јосиф муж њен, будући побожан и не хтевши је јавно срамотити, намисли је тајно пустити.
20 While he was seriously considering this, much to his surprise, in a dream he saw an angel whom the Lord [had sent]. The angel said, “Joseph, descendant of [King] David, do not be afraid that [you(sg) would be doing wrong if you(sg) would marry] Mary. Instead, [begin to treat her] as your wife, because the Holy Spirit, [not a man], has caused her to be pregnant.
Но кад он тако помисли, а то му се јави у сну анђео Господњи говорећи: Јосифе, сине Давидов! Не бој се узети Марије жене своје; јер оно што се у њој зачело од Духа је Светог.
21 She will give birth to a son. Since it is he who will cause that his people will be saved from [the guilt of] their having sinned, name [the baby] Jesus, [which means ‘the Lord saves people’].”
Па ће родити Сина, и надени Му име Исус; јер ће Он избавити свој народ од греха њихових.
22 All this happened as a result of what the Lord told the prophet [Isaiah to write long ago about what was going to happen]. This is what Isaiah wrote:
А ово је све било да се изврши шта је Господ казао преко пророка који говори:
23 “Listen, a virgin will become pregnant and will give birth to a son. They will call him Emmanuel.” Emmanuel means ‘God is with us’.
Ето, девојка ће затруднети, и родиће Сина, и наденуће Му име Емануило, које ће рећи: С нама Бог.
24 When Joseph got up from sleep, he did what the angel whom the Lord [had sent] commanded him to do. He took [Mary] home to be his wife.
Кад се Јосиф пробуди од сна, учини како му је заповедио анђео Господњи, и узме жену своју.
25 But he did not have sexual relations with her until she had given birth to a son. And [Joseph] named him Jesus.
И не знаше за њу док не роди Сина свог првенца, и надеде Му име Исус.
