22 In all this what the Lord had spoken by the Prophet was verified,
23 «Behold the virgin shall conceive and bear a son, who shall be called Immanuel;» 'which signifies, God with us.'
24 When Joseph awoke, he did as the messenger of the Lord had commanded him, and took home his wife;
25 but knew her not, until she had brought forth her first born son, whom he named Jesus.
18 Now the birth of Jesus Christ happened thus: Mary his mother had been espoused to Joseph; but before they came together, she proved to be with child by the Holy Spirit.
19 Joseph her husband being a virtuous man, and unwilling to expose her, intended to divorce her privately.
20 But while he was thinking upon this, an angel of the Lord appearing to him in a dream, said, Joseph, son of David, scruple not to take home Mary your wife; for her pregnancy is from the Holy Spirit.
21 And she shall bear a son, whom you shall call Jesus, for he will save his people from their sins.
4 Whosoever, therefore, shall become humble like this child.
5 Nay, whosoever receives one such child, in my name, receives me:
14 Jesus said, Let the children alone, and hinder them not from coming to me; for of such is the kingdom of heaven.
26 Now, in the sixth month, God sent Gabriel his angel, to Nazareth, a city of Galilee;
27 to a virgin betrothed to a man called Joseph, of the house of David, and the virgin's name was Mary.
16 Then taking them up in his arms, and laying his hands upon them, he blessed them.
3 Jesus answering, said to him, Most assuredly, I say to you, unless a man be born again, he can not discern the Reign of God.
9 Whoever has been begotten by God, does not work sin; because his seed abides in him; and he can not sin, because he has been begotten by God.
21 A woman in travail has sorrow, because her hour is come. But when her son is born, she remembers her anguish no longer; for joy that she has brought a man into the world.
30 And the angel said to her, Fear not, Mary, for you have found favor with God.
31 And behold, you shall conceive and bear a son, whom you shall name Jesus.
32 He shall be great, and shall be called the Son of the Highest. And the Lord God will give him the throne of David his Father.
33 And he shall reign over the house of Jacob forever: his reign shall never end.
34 Then said Mary to the angel, How shall this be, since I have no intercourse with man?
35 The angel answering, said to her, The Holy Spirit will descend upon you, and the power of the Highest will overshadow you; therefore the holy progeny shall be called the Son of God.
