Now the birth of Iesus Christ was on this wise: When as his mother Mary was espoused to Ioseph (before they came together) shee was found with childe of the holy Ghost. |
|
1:19 |
Then Ioseph her husband being a iust man, and not willing to make her a publique example, was minded to put her away priuily. |
|
1:20 |
But while hee thought on these things, behold, the Angel of the Lord appeared vnto him in a dreame, saying, Ioseph thou sonne of Dauid, feare not to take vnto thee Mary thy wife: for that which is conceiued in her, is of the holy Ghost. |
|
1:21 |
And she shall bring forth a sonne, and thou shalt call his Name Iesus: for hee shall saue his people from their sinnes. |
|
1:22 |
(Now all this was done, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken of the Lord by the Prophet, saying, |
|
1:23 |
Behold, a Uirgin shall be with childe, and shall bring foorth a sonne, and they shall call his name Emmanuel, which being interpreted, is, God with vs.) |
|
1:24 |
Then Ioseph, being raised from sleepe, did as the Angel of the Lord had bidden him, & tooke vnto him his wife: |
|
1:25 |
And knewe her not, till shee had brought forth her first borne sonne, and he called his name Iesus. |
