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.

Joseph, her husband, being a righteous man, and not willing to make her a public example, intended to put her away secretly.
20 Haec autem eo cogitante, ecce Angelus Domini apparuit in somnis ei, dicens: Ioseph fili David, noli timere accipere Mariam coniugem tuam: quod enim in ea natum est, de Spiritu sancto est.
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 pariet autem filium: et vocabis nomen eius IESUM: ipse enim salvum faciet populum suum a peccatis eorum.
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 Hoc autem totum factum est, ut adimpleretur quod dictum est a Domino per Prophetam dicentem:
Now all this has happened that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the Lord through the prophet, saying,
23 Ecce virgo in utero habebit, et pariet filium: et vocabitur nomen eius Emmanuel, quod est interpretatum Nobiscum Deus.
“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 Exurgens autem Ioseph a somno, fecit sicut praecepit ei angelus Domini, et accepit coniugem suam.
Joseph arose from his sleep, and did as the angel of the Lord commanded him, and took his wife to himself;
25 Et non cognoscebat eam donec peperit filium suum primogenitum: et vocavit nomen eius Iesum.
and didn’t know her sexually until she had given birth to her firstborn son. He named him Jesus.
