18 V oici de quelle manière arriva la naissance de Jésus Christ. Marie, sa mère, ayant été fiancée à Joseph, se trouva enceinte, par la vertu du Saint Esprit, avant qu'ils eussent habité ensemble.

¶ Now the birth of Jesus Christ was like this: That being, his mother Mary espoused to Joseph (before they came together) she was found with child of the Holy Spirit.

19 J oseph, son époux, qui était un homme de bien et qui ne voulait pas la diffamer, se proposa de rompre secrètement avec elle.

Then Joseph her husband, being just and not willing to expose her publicly, desired to leave her secretly.

20 C omme il y pensait, voici, un ange du Seigneur lui apparut en songe, et dit: Joseph, fils de David, ne crains pas de prendre avec toi Marie, ta femme, car l'enfant qu'elle a conçu vient du Saint Esprit;

But while he thought on these things, behold, the angel of the Lord appeared unto him in dreams, saying, Joseph, thou son of David, fear not to take unto thee Mary thy wife; for that which is conceived in her is of the Holy Spirit.

21 e lle enfantera un fils, et tu lui donneras le nom de Jésus; c'est lui qui sauvera son peuple de ses péchés.

And she shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt call his name Jesus, for he shall save his people from their sins.

22 T out cela arriva afin que s'accomplît ce que le Seigneur avait annoncé par le prophète:

Now all this was done that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the Lord through the prophet, saying,

23 V oici, la vierge sera enceinte, elle enfantera un fils, et on lui donnera le nom d'Emmanuel, ce qui signifie Dieu avec nous.

Behold, a virgin shall conceive and shall bring forth a son, and they shall call his name Emmanuel, which being interpreted is God With Us.

24 J oseph s'étant réveillé fit ce que l'ange du Seigneur lui avait ordonné, et il prit sa femme avec lui.

Then Joseph, being aroused from sleep, did as the angel of the Lord had bidden him and took unto him his wife

25 M ais il ne la connut point jusqu'à ce qu'elle eût enfanté un fils, auquel il donna le nom de Jésus.

and knew her not until she had brought forth her firstborn son, and he called his name Jesus.
