| 21 And she shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt call his name JESUS: for he s | | |
| hall save his people from their sins. | | |
| 22 Now all this was done, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken of the Lor | | |

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