    • This is how the birth of Jesus the Messiah came about: His mother Mary was pledged to be married to Joseph, but before they came together, she was found to be pregnant through the Holy Spirit以下是耶稣基督降生的经过:耶稣的母亲玛丽亚和约瑟订了婚,还没有成亲就从圣灵怀了孕。

    • Because Joseph her husband was faithful to the law, and yet did not want to expose her to public disgrace, he had in mind to divorce her quietly.约瑟是个义人,不愿公开地羞辱她,便决定暗中和她解除婚约。

    • But after he had considered this, an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream and said, “Joseph son of David, do not be afraid to take Mary home as your wife, because what is conceived in her is from the Holy Spirit. 他正在考虑这事的时候,主的一位天使在梦中向他显现,说:“大卫的后裔约瑟,不要怕,把玛丽亚娶过来,因为她所怀的孕是从圣灵来的。

    • She will give birth to a son, and you are to give him the name Jesus, because he will save his people from their sins.” 她将生一个儿子,你要给祂取名叫耶稣,因为祂要把自己的子民从罪恶中救出来。

    • All this took place to fulfill what the Lord had said through the prophet: 23“The virgin will conceive and give birth to a son, and they will call him Immanuel” (which means “God with us”). 这一切的事成就,是要应验主借先知所说的话,说,必有童女,怀孕生子,人要称他的名为以马内利。(以马内利翻出来,就是神与我们同在。)

    • When Joseph woke up, he did what the angel of the Lord had commanded him and took Mary home as his wife. 约瑟醒来,就遵从主的天使的吩咐和玛丽亚结婚,

    • But he did not consummate their marriage until she gave birth to a son. And he gave him the name Jesus. 只是在她生下孩子之前没有与她同房。约瑟给孩子取名叫耶稣。
