18 Now the birth, of [Jesus] Christ, was, thus: His mother Mary having been betrothed to Joseph, —before they came together, she was found with child by [the] Holy Spirit.
Now the birth of Jesus Christ was in this manner. When his mother Mary had been betrothed to Joseph, before they came together, she was found to be with child by the Holy Spirit.
19 Moreover, Joseph her husband, being, righteous, and yet unwilling to expose her, —intended, privately, to divorce her.
Then Joseph her husband, being righteous, and not willing to expose her to shame, purposed to put her away privately.
20 But, when, these things, he had pondered, lo! a messenger of the Lord, by dream, appeared to him, saying, —Joseph, son of David! do not fear to take unto thee Mary thy wife, for, that which, in her, hath been begotten, is of [the], Holy, Spirit.
But while he thought on these things, lo! an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream, saying, Joseph, son of David, fear not to take to thee Mary thy wife; for that which is conceived in her is by the Holy Spirit.
21 Moreover she shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt call his name Jesus, —for, he, will save his people from their sins.
And she will bear a son, and thou shalt call his name Jesus; for he will save his people from their sins.
22 But, all this, hath come to pass, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the Lord, through the prophet, saying:
Now all this took place, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the Lord through the prophet, saying,
23 Lo! a Virgin, shall be with child, and shall bring forth a son, —and they shall call his name Emmanuel; which is, being translated, God with us.
“Behold, the virgin shall be with child, and shall bear a son, and they shall call his name Immanuel;” that is, when interpreted, God-is with-us.
24 And Joseph, awaking, from his sleep, did as the messenger of the Lord directed him, —and took unto him his wife;
Then Joseph, on waking up from sleep, did as the angel of the Lord had bidden him, and took to him his wife;
25 and knew her not, until she had brought forth a son, —and he called his name Jesus.
and he knew her not till she had brought forth a son: and he called his name Jesus.
