Conception and Birth of Jesus

Now the birth of Jesus Christ was as follows: when His mother Mary had been betrothed to Joseph, before they came together she was found to be with child by the Holy Spirit.

18

The Birth of Jesus

Now the birth of Jesus Christ was thus: His mother, Mary, that is, having been betrothed to Joseph, before they came together, she was found to be with child of [the] Holy Spirit.

19

And Joseph her husband, being a righteous man and not wanting to disgrace her, planned to send her away secretly.

19

But Joseph, her husband, being [a] righteous [man], and unwilling to expose her publicly, purposed to have put her away secretly;

20

But when he had considered this, behold, an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream, saying, “Joseph, son of David, do not be afraid to take Mary as your wife; for the Child who has been conceived in her is of the Holy Spirit.

20

but while he pondered on these things, behold, 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 begotten in her is of [the] Holy Spirit.

21

“She will bear a Son; and you shall call His name Jesus, for He will save His people from their sins.”

21

And she shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt call his name Jesus, for *he* shall save his people from their sins.

22

Now all this took place to fulfill what was spoken by the Lord through the prophet:

22

Now all this came to pass that that might be fulfilled which was spoken by [the] Lord, through the prophet, saying,

23

“BEHOLD, THE VIRGIN SHALL BE WITH CHILD AND SHALL BEAR A SON, AND THEY SHALL CALL HIS NAME IMMANUEL,” which translated means, “GOD WITH US.”

23

Behold, the virgin shall be with child, and shall bring forth a son, and they shall call his name Emmanuel, which is, being interpreted, 'God with us.'

24

And Joseph awoke from his sleep and did as the angel of the Lord commanded him, and took Mary as his wife,

24

But Joseph, having awoke up from his sleep, did as the angel of [the] Lord had enjoined him, and took to [him] his wife,

25

but kept her a virgin until she gave birth to a Son; and he called His name Jesus.

25

and knew her not until she had brought forth her firstborn son: and he called his name Jesus.
