For that which is conceaved in her is of the holy goost. 21 She shall brynge forthe a sonne and thou shalt call his name Iesus. For he shall save his peple from their synnes. 22 All this was done to fulfill that which was spoken of the Lorde by the Prophet saynge: 23 Beholde a mayde shall be with chylde and shall brynge forthe a sonne and they shall call his name Emanuel which is by interpretacion God with vs. 24 And Ioseph assone as he awoke out of slepe did as the angell of the Lorde bade hym and toke hys wyfe vnto hym 25 and knewe her not tyll she had brought forth hir fyrst sonne and called hys name Iesus.
