17 There were fourteen generations from Abraham to David, another fourteen from David to the Babylonian exile, and yet another fourteen from the Babylonian exile to Christ. The Birth of Jesus
17 So all the generations from Abraham to David were fourteen generations, and from David to the deportation to Babylon fourteen generations, and from the deportation to Babylon to the Christ fourteen generations.
18 The birth of Jesus took place like this. His mother, Mary, was engaged to be married to Joseph. Before they came to the marriage bed, Joseph discovered she was pregnant. (It was by the Holy Spirit, but he didn't know that.)
18 Now the birth of Jesus Christ took place in this way. When his mother Mary had been betrothed to Joseph, before they came together she was found to be with child from the Holy Spirit.
19 Joseph, chagrined but noble, determined to take care of things quietly so Mary would not be disgraced.
19 And her husband Joseph, being a just man and unwilling to put her to shame, resolved to divorce her quietly.
20 While he was trying to figure a way out, he had a dream. God's angel spoke in the dream: "Joseph, son of David, don't hesitate to get married. Mary's pregnancy is Spirit-conceived. God's Holy Spirit has made her pregnant.
20 But as he considered these things, behold, an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream, saying, “Joseph, son of David, do not fear to take Mary as your wife, for that which is conceived in her is from the Holy Spirit.
21 She will bring a son to birth, and when she does, you, Joseph, will name him Jesus - 'God saves' - because he will save his people from their sins."
21 She will bear a son, and you shall call his name Jesus, for he will save his people from their sins. ”
22 This would bring the prophet's embryonic sermon to full term:
22 All this took place to fulfill what the Lord had spoken by the prophet:
23 Watch for this - a virgin will get pregnant and bear a son; They will name him Emmanuel (Hebrew for "God is with us").
23 “Behold, the virgin shall conceive and bear a son, and they shall call his name Immanuel”(which means, God with us).
24 Then Joseph woke up. He did exactly what God's angel commanded in the dream: He married Mary.
24 When Joseph woke from sleep, he did as the angel of the Lord commanded him: he took his wife,
25 But he did not consummate the marriage until she had the baby. He named the baby Jesus.
25 but knew her not until she had given birth to a son. And he called his name Jesus.
