20 Wie er aber damit umgieng, siehe, da erschien ihm ein Engel des Herrn im Traum und sprach: Joseph, Sohn Davids, scheue dich nicht, Maria, dein Weib, zu dir zu nehmen; denn ihre Leibesfrucht ist vom heiligen Geiste.
But when he thought about these things, behold, an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream, saying, “Joseph, son of David, don’t be afraid to take to yourself Mary as your wife, for that which is conceived in her is of the Holy Spirit.
21 Sie wird aber einen Sohn gebären, dem sollst du den Namen Jesus geben; denn er wird sein Volk erretten von ihren Sünden.
She shall give birth to a son. You shall name him Jesus, for it is he who shall save his people from their sins.”
22 Das alles aber ist geschehen, damit in Erfüllung gehe, was der Herr durch das Wort des Propheten gesprochen hat:
Now all this has happened that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the Lord through the prophet, saying,
23 Siehe, die Jungfrau wird schwanger sein und einen Sohn gebären, und sie werden ihm den Namen Immanuel geben, was in der Übersetzung heißt: Gott mit uns.
“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.”
24 Als aber Joseph vom Schlafe erwachte, that er, wie ihn der Engel des Herrn angewiesen hatte, und nahm seine Frau zu sich,
Joseph arose from his sleep, and did as the angel of the Lord commanded him, and took his wife to himself;
25 und er erkannte sie nicht, bis sie einen Sohn geboren hatte, und gab demselben den Namen Jesus.
and didn’t know her sexually until she had given birth to her firstborn son. He named him Jesus.
