Birth of Jesus
18 And the generation of CHRIST was in this wise. When his mother MARY was spoused to Joseph, before they came together, she was found to be with child, by the Holy Ghost.📜💬📚
19 Whereupon Joseph her husband for that he was a just man, & would not put her to open shame: was minded secretly to dismiss her.📜💬📚
20 But as he was thus thinking, behold the Angel of our Lord appeared to him in sleep saying: Joseph son of David, fear not to take MARY thy wife, for that which is born in her, is of the Holy Ghost.📜💬📚
21 And she shall bring forth a Son: and thou shalt call his name JESUS. For he shall save his people from their sins.📜💬📚
22 And all this was done that it might be fulfilled which our Lord spake by the Prophet saying.📜💬📚
23 Behold a Virgin shall be with child, & bring forth a Son, and they shall call his name Emmanuel, which being interpreted is, God with us.📜💬📚
24 And Joseph rising up from sleep, did as the Angel of our Lord commanded him, & took his wife.📜💬📚
25 And he knew her not till she brought forth her first born Son: & called his name JESUS.📜💬📚
