Anderson⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹⁸ But Jesus Christ was begotten thus: After his mother Mary had been betrothed to Joseph, before they had come together, she was found to be with child of the Holy Spirit. ¹⁹ Then Joseph her husband, being a just man, and not choosing to make an example of her, intended to put her away privately. ²⁰ But while he was thinking of these things, behold, an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream, saying: Joseph, son of David, fear not to take home Mary your wife; for that which is begotten in her is of the Holy Spirit. ²¹ And she will bear a son, and you shall call his name Jesus; for he will save his people from their sins. ²² Now all this was done, that the word might be fulfilled, which was spoken by the Lord through the prophet, saying: ²³ Behold, a virgin shall be with child, and shall bear a son, and his name shall be called Immanuel, which, when translated, is, God with us. ²⁴ And Joseph awoke from his sleep, and did as the angel of the Lord had commanded him; and he took home his wife, ²⁵ and knew her not till she had brought forth her first-born son. And he called his name Jesus.
