17 S o all the generations from Abraham to David are fourteen, from David to the Babylonian exile (deportation) fourteen generations, from the Babylonian exile to the Christ fourteen generations.

Assim, ao todo houve catorze gerações de Abraão a Davi, catorze de Davi até o exílio na Babilônia, e catorze do exílio até o Cristo. O Nascimento de Jesus Cristo

18 N ow the birth of Jesus Christ took place under these circumstances: When His mother Mary had been promised in marriage to Joseph, before they came together, she was found to be pregnant of the Holy Spirit.

Foi assim o nascimento de Jesus Cristo: Maria, sua mãe, estava prometida em casamento a José, mas, antes que se unissem, achou-se grávida pelo Espírito Santo.

19 A nd her husband Joseph, being a just and upright man and not willing to expose her publicly and to shame and disgrace her, decided to repudiate and dismiss (divorce) her quietly and secretly.

Por ser José, seu marido, um homem justo, e não querendo expô-la à desonra pública, pretendia anular o casamento secretamente.

20 B ut as he was thinking this over, behold, an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream, saying, Joseph, descendant of David, do not be afraid to take Mary your wife, for that which is conceived in her is of (from, out of) the Holy Spirit.

Mas, depois de ter pensado nisso, apareceu-lhe um anjo do Senhor em sonho e disse: “José, filho de Davi, não tema receber Maria como sua esposa, pois o que nela foi gerado procede do Espírito Santo.

21 S he will bear a Son, and you shall call His name Jesus, for He will save His people from their sins '> failing and missing the true end and scope of life, which is God].

Ela dará à luz um filho, e você deverá dar-lhe o nome de Jesus, porque ele salvará o seu povo dos seus pecados”.

22 A ll this took place that it might be fulfilled which the Lord had spoken through the prophet,

Tudo isso aconteceu para que se cumprisse o que o Senhor dissera pelo profeta:

23 B ehold, the virgin shall become pregnant and give birth to a Son, and they shall call His name Emmanuel—which, when translated, means, God with us.

“A virgem ficará grávida e dará à luz um filho, e lhe chamarão Emanuel”, que significa “Deus conosco”.

24 T hen Joseph, being aroused from his sleep, did as the angel of the Lord had commanded him: he took his wife.

Ao acordar, José fez o que o anjo do Senhor lhe tinha ordenado e recebeu Maria como sua esposa.

25 B ut he had no union with her as her husband until she had borne her firstborn Son; and he called His name Jesus.

Mas não teve relações com ela enquanto ela não deu à luz um filho. E ele lhe pôs o nome de Jesus.
