17 So all the generations from Abraham to David are fourteen generations; and from David to the exile to Babylon fourteen generations; and from the exile to Babylon to the Christ, fourteen generations.

18 Now the birth of Jesus Christ happened like this. His mother Mary had been engaged to Joseph, and before they came together, she was found to be with child from the Holy Spirit.
ⲓ̅ⲏ̅ⲡⲉϫⲡⲟ ⲇⲉ ⲛⲓⲏⲥ ⲡⲉⲭⲥ ⲛⲉⲩⲧⲉⲓϩⲉ ⲡⲉ ⲛⲧⲉⲣⲟⲩϣⲡ ⲧⲟⲟⲧⲥ ⲛⲧⲉϥⲙⲁⲁⲩ ⲙⲁⲣⲓⲁ ⲛⲓⲱⲥⲏⲫ ⲉⲙⲡⲁⲧⲟⲩⲃⲱⲕ ⲉϩⲟⲩⲛ ϣⲁⲛⲉⲩⲉⲣⲏⲩ ⲁⲩϩⲉ ⲉⲣⲟⲥ ⲉⲥⲉⲉⲧ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲛ ⲟⲩⲡⲛⲁ ⲉϥⲟⲩⲁⲁⲃ
19 And Joseph, her husband, being a righteous man, and not willing to make her a public example, intended to put her away secretly.
ⲓ̅ⲑ̅ⲓⲱⲥⲏⲫ ⲇⲉ ⲡⲉⲥϩⲁⲓ ⲉⲛⲉⲩⲇⲓⲕⲁⲓⲟⲥ ⲡⲉ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲛⲉϥⲟⲩⲱϣ ⲁⲛ ⲉϯ ⲙⲡⲉⲥⲥⲟⲉⲓⲧ ⲁϥⲟⲩⲱϣ ⲉⲛⲟϫⲥ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲛϫⲓⲟⲩⲉ
20 But when he thought about these things, look, an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream, saying, "Joseph, son of David, do not be afraid to take to yourself Mary, your wife, for that which is conceived in her is of the Holy Spirit.
ⲕ̅ⲛⲁⲓ ⲇⲉ ⲛⲧⲉⲣⲉϥⲙⲉⲉⲩⲉ ⲉⲣⲟⲟⲩ ⲉⲓⲥ ⲡⲁⲅⲅⲉⲗⲟⲥ ⲙⲡϫⲟⲉⲓⲥ ⲁϥⲟⲩⲱⲛϩ ⲛⲁϥ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲛ ⲟⲩⲣⲁⲥⲟⲩ ⲉϥϫⲱ ⲙⲙⲟⲥ ϫⲉ ⲓⲱⲥⲏⲫ ⲡϣⲏⲣⲉ ⲛⲇⲁⲩⲉⲓⲇ ⲙⲡⲣⲣⲟ ϩⲟⲧⲉ ⲉϫⲓ ⲙⲙⲁⲣⲓⲁ ⲧⲉⲕⲥϩⲓⲙⲉ ⲡⲉⲧⲟⲩⲛⲁϫⲡⲟϥ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲛϩⲏⲧⲥ ⲟⲩⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲛ ⲟⲩⲡⲛⲁ ⲉϥⲟⲩⲁⲁⲃ ⲡⲉ
21 And she will bring forth a son, and you are to name him Jesus, for he will save his people from their sins."

22 Now all this has happened, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the Lord through the prophet, saying,
ⲕ̅ⲃ̅ⲡⲁⲓ ⲇⲉ ⲧⲏⲣϥ ⲛⲧⲁϥϣⲱⲡⲉ ϫⲉⲕⲁⲥ ⲉϥⲉϫⲱⲕ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲛϭⲓ ⲡⲉⲛⲧⲁⲡϫⲟⲉⲓⲥ ϫⲟⲟϥ ϩⲓⲧⲙ ⲡⲉⲡⲣⲟⲫⲏⲧⲏⲥ ⲉϥϫⲱ ⲙⲙⲟⲥ
23 "Look, the virgin will conceive and bear a son, and they will call his name Immanuel;" which is translated, "God with us."

24 And Joseph arose from his sleep, and did as the angel of the Lord commanded him, and took his wife to himself;

25 and had no marital relations with her until she had brought forth a son; and he named him Jesus.
