17So all the generations from Abraham to David are fourteen generations; and from David until the carrying away into Babylon are fourteen generations; and from the carrying away into Babylon unto Christ are fourteen generations.

18Now the birth of Jesus Christ was on this wise: When as his mother Mary was espoused to Joseph, before they came together, she was found with child of the Holy Ghost.
18⳿ⲡϫⲓⲛⲙⲓⲥⲓ ⲇⲉ ⳿ⲛⲒⲏ̅ⲥ̅ Ⲡⲭ̅ⲥ̅ ⲛⲉ ⲟⲩⲡⲁⲓⲣⲏϯ ⲡⲉ ⳿ⲉⲧⲁⲩⲱⲡ ⳿ⲛⲥⲁ ⲧⲉϥⲙⲁⲩ Ⲙⲁⲣⲓ⳿ⲁ ⳿ⲛⲒⲱⲥⲏⲫ ⳿ⲙⲡⲁⲧⲟⲩⲥⲟⲩⲉⲛ ⲛⲟⲩ⳿ⲉⲣⲏⲟⲩ ⲁⲩϫⲉⲙⲥ ⲉⲥ⳿ⲙⲃⲟⲕⲓ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗϧⲉⲛ ⲟⲩⲡ͞ⲛⲁ̅ ⲉϥⲟⲩⲁⲃ.
19Then Joseph her husband, being a just man, and not willing to make her a publick example, was minded to put her away privily.
19Ⲓⲱⲥⲏⲫ ⲇⲉ ⲡⲉⲥϩⲁⲓ ⲛⲉ ⲟⲩ⳿ⲑⲙⲏⲓ ⲡⲉ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⳿ⲛ⳿ϥⲟⲩⲱϣ ⲁⲛ ⳿ⲉⲁⲓⲥ ⳿ⲛ⳿ⲥⲣⲁϩ ⲁϥⲥⲟϭⲛⲓ ⳿ⲉⲭⲁⲥ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⳿ⲛⲭⲱⲡ.
20But while he thought on these things, behold, the angel of the LORD appeared unto him in a dream, saying, Joseph, thou son of David, fear not to take unto thee Mary thy wife: for that which is conceived in her is of the Holy Ghost.

21And she shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt call his name JESUS: for he shall save his people from their sins.

22Now all this was done, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken of the Lord by the prophet, saying,

23Behold, a virgin shall be with child, and shall bring forth a son, and they shall call his name Emmanuel, which being interpreted is, God with us.

24Then Joseph being raised from sleep did as the angel of the Lord had bidden him, and took unto him his wife:
