²⁰But when he thought about these things, behold, an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream, saying, “Joseph, son of David, don’t be afraid to take to yourself Mary, your wife, for that which is conceived in her is of the Holy Spirit.

²²Now all this has happened, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the Lord through the prophet, saying,

²³Ziet, de maagd zal zwanger worden, en een Zoon baren, en gij zult Zijn naam heten Emmanuel; hetwelk is, overgezet zijnde, God met ons.
