Matthew 1:19-23
New King James Version
19 Then Joseph her husband, being [a]a just man, and not wanting (A)to make her a public example, was minded to put her away secretly. 20 But while 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 you Mary your wife, (B)for that which is [b]conceived in her is of the Holy Spirit. 21 (C)And she will bring forth a Son, and you shall call His name [c]Jesus, (D)for He will save His people from their sins.”
22 So all this was done that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the Lord through the prophet, saying: 23 (E)“Behold, the virgin shall be with child, and bear a Son, and they shall call His name Immanuel,” which is translated, “God with us.”
