The birth of Jesus Christ was thus: His mother Mary, having been betrothed to Joseph, before they came together, was found having gestation from the Holy Ghost.
19 and her husband Joseph being righteous, and not willing to make her an example, resolved to send her away privately.
And Joseph her husband, being righteous and not wishing to expose her publicly, determined to send her away secretly.
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,
And he meditating on these things, behold an angel of the Lord appeared unto him in a dream, saying; Joseph, son of David, do not fear to receive Mary thy wife; for that which is begotten in her is of the Holy Spirit;
21 and she will bring forth a Son, and you will call His Name Jesus, for He will save His people from their sins.”
she shall bring forth a son; and thou shalt call his name Jesus; for He will save His people from their sins.
22 And all this has come to pass, that it may be fulfilled that was spoken by the LORD through the prophet, saying,
And all this took place in order that the Word, having been spoken by the Lord through the prophet, might be fulfilled, 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.”
Behold, the virgin shall have gestation and bring forth a son, and they will call his name Emmanuel, which is interpreted, God is with us.
24 And Joseph, having risen from sleep, did as the messenger of the LORD directed him, and received his wife,
And Joseph rising from sleep did as the angel of the Lord commanded him;
25 and did not know her until she brought forth her Son—the firstborn, and he called His Name Jesus.
and he took his wife to himself, and did not know her until she brought forth a son, and called his name Jesus.
