18 Or telle fut la genèse de Jésus Christ. Marie, sa mère, était fiancée à Joseph: or, avant qu'ilseussent mené vie commune, elle se trouva enceinte par le fait de l'Esprit Saint.	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.
19 Joseph, son mari, qui était un homme juste et ne voulait pas la dénoncer publiquement, résolut dela répudier sans bruit.	19 Joseph her husband, since he was a righteous man, yet unwilling to expose her to shame, decided to divorce her quietly.
20 Alors qu'il avait formé ce dessein, voici que l'Ange du Seigneur lui apparut en songe et lui dit:"Joseph, fils de David, ne crains pas de prendre chez toi Marie, ta femme: car ce qui a été engendré en elle vientde l'Esprit Saint;	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.
21 elle enfantera un fils, et tu l'appelleras du nom de Jésus: car c'est lui qui sauvera son peuple de sespéchés."	21 She will bear a son and you are to name him Jesus, because he will save his people from their sins."
22 Or tout ceci advint pour que s'accomplît cet oracle prophétique du Seigneur:	22 All this took place to fulfill what the Lord had said through the prophet:
23 Voici que la vierge concevra et enfantera un fils, et on l'appellera du nom d'Emmanuel, ce qui setraduit: "Dieu avec nous."	23 "Behold, the virgin shall be with child and bear a son, and they shall name him Emmanuel," which means "God is with us."
24 Une fois réveillé, Joseph fit comme l'Ange du Seigneur lui avait prescrit: il prit chez lui safemme;	24 When Joseph awoke, he did as the angel of the Lord had commanded him and took his wife into his home.
25 et il ne la connut pas jusqu'au jour où elle enfanta un fils, et il l'appela du nom de Jésus.	25 He had no relations with her until she bore a son, and he named him Jesus.
