1:22-23 Jesus’ birth from a virgin fulfills Isa 7:14. The Hebrew term ‘almah (virgin or young maiden) was translated parthenos (“virgin”) in the Greek Old Testament that Matthew quotes. Matthew understands the ‘almah of Isaiah as foreshadowing the Virgin Mary.
Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / exclamations
ἰδοὺ
behold
Here, the word Behold draws the attention of the audience and asks them to listen carefully. If it would be helpful in your language, you could express behold with a word or phrase that asks the audience to listen, or you could draw the audience’s attention in another way. Alternate translation: “Pay attention:” or “Listen to me:”
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
ἡ παρθένος
the virgin
Although the word translated virgin occasionally refers to any young woman, whether she has had sex or not, the word normally refers to a young woman who has not had sex. This is what Matthew means here, so you should use a word or phrase that refers to a woman who is old enough to get married but who has not yet had sex. Alternate translation: “the marriageable woman who has not had sex”
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom
ἐν γαστρὶ ἕξει
in womb /will_be/_having
Here, the phrase have in her womb refers to a woman being pregnant. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use a comparable phrase or state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “will be with child” or “will be expecting a baby”
Note 4 topic: writing-pronouns
καλέσουσιν
˱they˲_/will_be/_calling
The pronoun they refers to people in general. If this is not clear for your readers, you could use a form that refers to people in general. Alternate translation: “others will call” or “everyone will call”
Note 5 topic: translate-transliterate
Ἐμμανουήλ, ὅ ἐστιν μεθερμηνευόμενον, μεθ’ ἡμῶν ὁ Θεός
Emmanuel which is /being/_translated with us ¬the God
The word Immanuel is a Hebrew word. Matthew spelled it out using Greek letters so his readers would know how it sounded, and then he explained what it meant: God with us. In your translation you can spell it the way it sounds in your language and then explain its meaning. Alternate translation: “Immanuel,’ which is a Hebrew word that is translated as ‘God with us’”
Note 6 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive
ὅ ἐστιν μεθερμηνευόμενον, μεθ’ ἡμῶν ὁ Θεός.
which is /being/_translated with us ¬the God
If your language does not use this passive form, you could express the idea in active form or in another way that is natural in your language. Alternate translation: “which we translate as ‘God with us’” or “this name means ‘God with us’”
