Matthew 1:19-21
1599 Geneva Bible
19 Then Joseph her husband being a just man, and not willing to (A)make her a public example, was minded to put her away secretly.
20 But while he thought these things, behold, the Angel of the Lord appeared unto him in a dream, saying, Joseph, the son of David, fear not to [a]take Mary thy [b]wife: for that which is [c]conceived in her, is of the holy Ghost.
21 And she shall bring [d]forth a son, and thou shalt (B)call his name JESUS: for he shall (C)[e]save his people from their sins.
