Matthew 1:21-25

21Mary's baby will be a boy. He will save his people from their sins. Because of that, you must give him the name “Jesus”.’

22The Lord God had given a message about this to one of his prophets long ago. Now that message would become true.

23The prophet had said, ‘A young woman who has never had sex will have a baby boy. People will call her son Immanuel.’ This name means ‘God is with us’.

24Then Joseph woke up from his sleep. He did what God's angel had said to him. He married Mary and he took her to his home.

25Joseph did not have sex with Mary until after the baby boy was born. He said that the boy's name should be Jesus.
