18 N ow the birth of Jesus Christ was like this; for after his mother, Mary, was engaged to Joseph, before they came together, she was found pregnant by the Holy Spirit.
Voici 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.
19 J oseph, her husband, being a righteous man, and not willing to make her a public example, intended to put her away secretly.
Joseph, son époux, qui était un homme de bien et qui ne voulait pas la diffamer, se proposa de rompre secrètement avec elle.
20 B ut 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, your wife, for that which is conceived in her is of the Holy Spirit.
Comme 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;
21 S he shall give birth to a son. You shall call his name Jesus, for it is he who shall save his people from their sins.”
elle enfantera un fils, et tu lui donneras le nom de Jésus; c'est lui qui sauvera son peuple de ses péchés.
22 N ow all this has happened, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the Lord through the prophet, saying,
Tout cela arriva afin que s'accomplît ce que le Seigneur avait annoncé 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, elle enfantera un fils, et on lui donnera le nom d'Emmanuel, ce qui signifie Dieu avec nous.
24 J oseph arose from his sleep, and did as the angel of the Lord commanded him, and took his wife to himself;
Joseph s'étant réveillé fit ce que l'ange du Seigneur lui avait ordonné, et il prit sa femme avec lui.
25 a nd 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 un fils, auquel il donna le nom de Jésus.
