18 Now the birth of Jesus Christ was like this: After his mother, Mary, was engaged to Joseph, before they came together, she was found pregnant by the Holy Spirit.
Nowe the birth of Jesus Christ was thus, When as his mother Mary was betrothed to Ioseph, before they came together, shee was found with childe of the holy Ghost.
19 Joseph, her husband, being a righteous man, and not willing to make her a public example, intended to put her away secretly.
Then Ioseph her husband being a iust man, and not willing to make her a publike example, was minded to put her away secretly.
20 But when he thought about these things, behold, an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream, saying, “Joseph, son of David, do not be afraid to take to yourself Mary as your wife, for that which is conceived in her is of the Holy Spirit.
But whiles he thought these things, behold, the Angel of the Lord appeared vnto him in a dreame, saying, Ioseph, the sonne of Dauid, feare not to take Mary thy wife: for that which is conceiued in her, is of the holy Ghost.
21 She shall give birth to a son. You shall name him Jesus, for it is he who shall save his people from their sins.”
And she shall bring foorth a sonne, and thou shalt call his name JESUS: for hee shall saue his people from their sinnes.
22 Now all this has happened that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the Lord through the prophet, saying,
And al this was done that it might be fulfilled, which is spoken of the Lord by ye Prophet, saying,
23 “Behold, the virgin shall be with child, and shall give birth to a son. They shall call his name Immanuel,” which is, being interpreted, “God with us.”
Behold, a virgine shalbe with childe, and shall beare a sonne, and they shall call his name Emmanuel, which is by interpretation, God with vs.
24 Joseph arose from his sleep, and did as the angel of the Lord commanded him, and took his wife to himself;
Then Ioseph, being raised from sleepe, did as the Angel of the Lord had inioyned him, and tooke his wife.
25 and did not know her sexually until she had given birth to her firstborn son. He named him Jesus.
But he knew her not, til she had broght forth her first borne sonne, and he called his name JESUS.
