17 Thus the total number of generations from Abraham to David is fourteen generations; from David to the Babylonian exile, fourteen generations; from the Babylonian exile to the Messiah, fourteen generations.	17 Así que el total de las generaciones son: desde Abraham hasta David, catorce generaciones; desde David hasta la deportación a Babilonia, catorce generaciones; desde la deportación a Babilonia hasta Cristo, catorce generaciones.
18 Now this is how the birth of Jesus Christ came about. When his mother Mary was betrothed to Joseph, but before they lived together, she was found with child through the holy Spirit.	18 La generación de Jesucristo fue de esta manera: Su madre, María, estaba desposada con José y, antes de empezar a estar juntos ellos, se encontró encinta por obra del Espíritu Santo.
19 Joseph her husband, since he was a righteous man, yet unwilling to expose her to shame, decided to divorce her quietly.	19 Su marido José, como era justo y no quería ponerla en evidencia, resolvió repudiarla en secreto.
20 Such was his intention when, behold, the angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream and said, "Joseph, son of David, do not be afraid to take Mary your wife into your home. For it is through the holy Spirit that this child has been conceived in her.	20 Así lo tenía planeado, cuando el Angel del Señor se le apareció en sueños y le dijo: «José, hijo de David, no temas tomar contigo a María tu mujer porque lo engendrado en ella es del Espíritu Santo.
21 She will bear a son and you are to name him Jesus, because he will save his people from their sins."	21 Dará a luz un hijo, y tú le pondrás por nombre Jesús, porque él salvará a su pueblo de sus pecados».
22 All this took place to fulfill what the Lord had said through the prophet:	22 Todo esto sucedió para que se cumpliese el oráculo del Señor por medio del profeta:
23 "Behold, the virgin shall be with child and bear a son, and they shall name him Emmanuel," which means "God is with us."	23 Ved que la virgen concebirá y dará a luz un hijo, y le pondrán por nombre Emmanuel, que traducido significa: «Dios con nosotros».
24 When Joseph awoke, he did as the angel of the Lord had commanded him and took his wife into his home.	24 Despertado José del sueño, hizo como el Angel del Señor le había mandado, y tomó consigo a su mujer.
25 He had no relations with her until she bore a son, and he named him Jesus.	25 Y no la conocía hasta que ella dio a luz un hijo, y le puso por nombre Jesús.
