¶ Now the birth of Jesus Christ was on this wise: When as his mother Mary was espoused to Joseph, before they came together, she was found with child of the Holy Ghost.

Now the birth of Jesus Christ was in this way: when his mother Mary was going to be married to Joseph, before they came together the discovery was made that she was with child by the Holy Spirit.

Then Joseph her husband, being a just man , and not willing to make her a publick example, was minded to put her away privily.

And Joseph, her husband, being an upright man, and not desiring to make her a public example, had a mind to put her away privately.

But while he thought on these things, behold, the angel of the Lord appeared unto him in a dream, saying, Joseph, thou son of David, fear not to take unto thee Mary thy wife: for that which is conceived in her is of the Holy Ghost.

But when he was giving thought to these things, an angel of the Lord came to him in a dream, saying, Joseph, son of David, have no fear of taking Mary as your wife; because that which is in her body is of the Holy Spirit.

And she shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt call his name JESUS: for he shall save his people from their sins.

And she will give birth to a son; and you will give him the name Jesus; for he will give his people salvation from their sins.

Now all this was done, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken of the Lord by the prophet, saying,

Now all this took place so that the word of the Lord by the prophet might come true,

Behold, a virgin shall be with child, and shall bring forth a son, and they shall call his name Emmanuel, which being interpreted is, God with us.

See, the virgin will be with child, and will give birth to a son, and they will give him the name Immanuel, that is, God with us.

Then Joseph being raised from sleep did as the angel of the Lord had bidden him, and took unto him his wife:

And Joseph did as the angel of the Lord had said to him, and took her as his wife;

And knew her not till she had brought forth her firstborn son: and he called his name JESUS.

And he had no connection with her till she had given birth to a son; and he gave him the name Jesus.
