Matthew 1:21-25
Lexham English Bible

23 “Behold, the virgin will become pregnant[a] and will give birth to a son,
and they will call his name Emmanuel,”[b]

which is translated, “God with us.”[c] 24 And Joseph, when he[d] woke up from sleep, did as the angel of the Lord commanded him, and he took his wife 25 and did not have sexual relations with[e] her until she gave birth to a son. And he called his name Jesus.
