Living_Oracles⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹⁸ Now the birth of Jesus Christ happened thus: Mary his mother had been espoused to Joseph; but before they came together, she proved to be with child by the Holy Spirit. ¹⁹ Joseph her husband being a virtuous man, and unwilling to expose her, intended to divorce her privately. ²⁰ But while he was thinking upon this, an angel of the Lord appearing to him in a dream, said, Joseph, son of David, scruple not to take home Mary your wife; for her pregnancy is from the Holy Spirit. ²¹ And she shall bear a son, whom you shall call Jesus, for he will save his people from their sins. ²² In all this what the Lord had spoken by the Prophet was verified, ²³ "Behold the virgin shall conceive and bear a son, who shall be called Immanuel;" which signifies, God with us. ²⁴ When Joseph awoke, he did as the messenger of the Lord had commanded him, and took home his wife; ²⁵ but knew her not, until she had brought forth her first born son, whom he named Jesus.
