18 And of Jesus Christ, the birth was thus: for His mother Mary having been betrothed to Joseph, before their coming together she was found to have conceived from the Holy Spirit,

19 and her husband Joseph being righteous, and not willing to make her an example, resolved to send her away privately.

20 And on his thinking of these things, behold, a messenger of the LORD appeared to him in a dream, saying, “Joseph, son of David, you may not fear to receive your wife Mary, for that which was begotten in her is of [the] Holy Spirit,

22 And all this has come to pass, that it may be fulfilled that was spoken by the LORD through the prophet, saying,

23 “Behold, the virgin will conceive, and she will bring forth a Son, and they will call His Name Emmanuel,” which is, being interpreted, “God with us.”

24 And Joseph, having risen from sleep, did as the messenger of the LORD directed him, and received his wife,
