Louis Segond 1910 (French) LSG
New International Version NIV
15 Eliud engendra Eléazar; Eléazar engendra Matthan; Matthan engendra Jacob;
15
Elihud the father of Eleazar, Eleazar the father of Matthan, Matthan the father of Jacob,
16 Jacob engendra Joseph, l'époux de Marie, de laquelle est né Jésus, qui est appelé Christ.
16
and Jacob the father of Joseph, the husband of Mary, and Mary was the mother of Jesus who is called the Messiah.
17 Il y a donc en tout quatorze générations depuis Abraham jusqu'à David, quatorze générations depuis David jusqu'à la déportation à Babylone, et quatorze générations depuis la déportation à Babylone jusqu'au Christ.
17
Thus there were fourteen generations in all from Abraham to David, fourteen from David to the exile to Babylon, and fourteen from the exile to the Messiah.
18 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.
18
This is how the birth of Jesus the Messiah came about : His mother Mary was pledged to be married to Joseph, but before they came together, she was found to be pregnant through the Holy Spirit.
19 Joseph, son époux, qui était un homme de bien et qui ne voulait pas la diffamer, se proposa de rompre secrètement avec elle.
19
Because Joseph her husband was faithful to the law, and yet did not want to expose her to public disgrace, he had in mind to divorce her quietly.
20 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;
20
But after he had considered this, an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream and said, “Joseph son of David, do not be afraid to take Mary home as your wife, because what is conceived in her is from the Holy Spirit.
21 elle enfantera un fils, et tu lui donneras le nom de Jésus; c'est lui qui sauvera son peuple de ses péchés.
21
She will give birth to a son, and you are to give him the name Jesus, because he will save his people from their sins.”
22 Tout cela arriva afin que s'accomplît ce que le Seigneur avait annoncé par le prophète:
22
All this took place to fulfill what the Lord had said through the prophet:
23 Voici, la vierge sera enceinte, elle enfantera un fils, et on lui donnera le nom d'Emmanuel, ce qui signifie Dieu avec nous.
23
“The virgin will conceive and give birth to a son, and they will call him Immanuel” (which means “God with us”).
24 Joseph s'étant réveillé fit ce que l'ange du Seigneur lui avait ordonné, et il prit sa femme avec lui.
24
When Joseph woke up, he did what the angel of the Lord had commanded him and took Mary home as his wife.
25 Mais il ne la connut point jusqu'à ce qu'elle eût enfanté un fils, auquel il donna le nom de Jésus.
25
But he did not consummate their marriage until she gave birth to a son. And he gave him the name Jesus.
