Now the birth of Jesus Christ took place in this way. When his mother Mary had been betrothed to Joseph, before they came together, she was found to be with child from the Holy Spirit.
19 Ioseph autem vir eius cum esset iustus et nollet eam traducere voluit occulte dimittere eam
Because her husband Joseph was a righteous man and did not want to shame her publicly, he intended to send her away privately.
20 haec autem eo cogitante ecce angelus Domini in somnis apparuit ei dicens Ioseph fili David noli timere accipere Mariam coniugem tuam quod enim in ea natum est de Spiritu Sancto est
But as he thought about these things, behold, an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream and said, “Joseph, Son of David, do not be afraid to receive Mary as yoʋr wife, for the child that is conceived in her is from the Holy Spirit.
21 pariet autem filium et vocabis nomen eius Iesum ipse enim salvum faciet populum suum a peccatis eorum
She will give birth to a son, and yoʋ shall name him Jesus, for he will save his people from their sins.”
22 hoc autem totum factum est ut adimpleretur id quod dictum est a Domino per prophetam dicentem
All this took place to fulfill what the Lord had spoken through the prophet:
23 ecce virgo in utero habebit et pariet filium et vocabunt nomen eius Emmanuhel quod est interpretatum Nobiscum Deus
“Behold, the virgin will conceive and give birth to a son, and they will name him Immanuel” (which means, “God with us”).
24 exsurgens autem Ioseph a somno fecit sicut praecepit ei angelus Domini et accepit coniugem suam
When Joseph awoke from his sleep, he did as the angel of the Lord had commanded him. He took his wife
25 et non cognoscebat eam donec peperit filium suum primogenitum et vocavit nomen eius Iesum
but had no marital relations with her until she had given birth to her firstborn son. And he named him Jesus.
