| 5 | And Salmon begat Booz of Rachab; and Booz begat Obed of Ruth; and Obed begat Jesse; | Salmon, de Rahab, engendra Booz; Booz, de Ruth, engendra Obed; Obed engendra Jessé; |
| 6 | And Jesse begat David the king; and David the king begat Solomon of her that had been the wife of Urias; | Jessé engendra le roi David. David engendra Salomon de la femme d'Urie; |
| 7 | And Solomon begat Roboam; and Roboam begat Abia; and Abia begat Asa; | Salomon engendra Roboam; Roboam engendra Abia; Abia engendra Asa; |
| 8 | And Asa begat Josaphat; and Josaphat begat Joram; and Joram begat Ozias; | Asa engendra Josaphat; Josaphat engendra Joram; Joram engendra Ozias; |
| 9 | And Ozias begat Joatham; and Joatham begat Achaz; and Achaz begat Ezekias; | Ozias engendra Joatham; Joatham engendra Achaz; Achaz engendra Ezéchias; |
| 10 | And Ezekias begat Manasses; and Manasses begat Amon; and Amon begat Josias; | Ezéchias engendra Manassé; Manassé engendra Amon; Amon engendra Josias; |
| 11 | And Josias begat Jechonias and his brethren, about the time they were carried away to Babylon: | Josias engendra Jéchonias et ses frères, au temps de la déportation à Babylone. |
| 12 | And after they were brought to Babylon, Jechonias begat Salathiel; and Salathiel begat Zorobabel; | Après la déportation à Babylone, Jéchonias engendra Salathiel; Salatheil engendra Zorobabel; |
| 13 | And Zorobabel begat Abiud; and Abiud begat Eliakim; and Eliakim begat Azor; | Zorobabel engendra Abioud; Abioud engendra Eliacim; Eliacim engendra Azor; |

| 15 | And Eliud begat Eleazar; and Eleazar begat Matthan; and Matthan begat Jacob; | Elioud engendra Eléazar; Eléazar engendra Matthan; Matthan engendra Jacob; |
| 16 | And Jacob begat Joseph the husband of Mary, of whom was born Jesus, who is called Christ. | Jacob engendra Joseph l'époux de Marie, de laquelle est né Jésus, qu'on appelle Christ. |
| 17 | So all the generations from Abraham to David are fourteen generations; and from David until the carrying away into Babylon are fourteen generations; and from the carrying away into Babylon unto Christ are fourteen generations. | Il y a donc en tout quatorze générations depuis Abraham jusqu'à David, quatorze générations depuis David jusqu'à la déportation à Babylone, quatorze générations depuis la déportation à Babylone jusqu'au Christ. |
| 18 | Now the birth of Jesus Christ was on this wise: When as his mother Mary was espoused to Joseph, before they came together, she was found with child of the Holy Ghost. | Or la naissance de Jésus-Christ arriva ainsi. Marie, sa mère, ayant été fiancée à Joseph, il se trouva, avant qu'ils eussent habité ensemble, qu'elle avait conçu par la vertu du Saint-Esprit. |
| 19 | Then Joseph her husband, being a just man, and not willing to make her a publick example, was minded to put her away privily. | Joseph, son mari, qui était juste et ne voulait pas la diffamer, se proposa de la répudier secrètement. |
| 20 | But while he thought on these things, behold, the angel of the LORD appeared unto him in a dream, saying, Joseph, thou son of David, fear not to take unto thee Mary thy wife: for that which is conceived in her is of the Holy Ghost. | Comme il était dans cette pensée, voici qu'un ange du Seigneur lui apparut en songe, et lui dit : Joseph, fils de David, ne craint point de prendre chez toi Marie ton épouse, car ce qui est conçu en elle est du Saint-Esprit. |
| 21 | And she shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt call his name JESUS: for he shall save his people from their sins. | Et elle enfantera un fils, et tu lui donneras pour nom Jésus, car il sauvera son peuple de ses péchés. |
| 22 | Now all this was done, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken of the Lord by the prophet, saying, | Or tout cela arriva afin que fût accompli ce qu'avait dit le Seigneur par le prophète : |
| 23 | Behold, a virgin shall be with child, and shall bring forth a son, and they shall call his name Emmanuel, which being interpreted is, God with us. | Voici que la Vierge sera enceinte et enfantera un fils; et on lui donnera pour nom Emmanuel, ce qui se traduit : Dieu avec nous. |
| 24 | Then Joseph being raised from sleep did as the angel of the Lord had bidden him, and took unto him his wife: | Réveillé de son sommeil, Joseph fit ce que l'ange du Seigneur lui avait commandé : il prit chez lui son épouse. |
| 25 | And knew her not till she had brought forth her firstborn son: and he called his name JESUS. | Et il ne la connut point jusqu'à ce qu'elle enfantât son fils, et il lui donna pour nom Jésus. |
