20 Hæc autem eo cogitante, ecce angelus Domini apparuit in somnis ei, dicens : Joseph, fili David, noli timere accipere Mariam conjugem tuam : quod enim in ea natum est, de Spiritu Sancto est.	20 Such was his intention when, behold, the angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream and said, "Joseph, son of David, do not be afraid to take Mary your wife into your home. For it is through the holy Spirit that this child has been conceived in her.
21 Pariet autem filium : et vocabis nomen ejus Jesum : ipse enim salvum faciet populum suum a peccatis eorum.	21 She will bear a son and you are to name him Jesus, because he will save his people from their sins."
22 Hoc autem totum factum est, ut adimpleretur quod dictum est a Domino per prophetam dicentem :	22 All this took place to fulfill what the Lord had said through the prophet:
23 Ecce virgo in utero habebit, et pariet filium : et vocabunt nomen ejus Emmanuel, quod est interpretatum Nobiscum Deus.	23 "Behold, the virgin shall be with child and bear a son, and they shall name him Emmanuel," which means "God is with us."
24 Exsurgens autem Joseph a somno, fecit sicut præcepit ei angelus Domini, et accepit conjugem suam.	24 When Joseph awoke, he did as the angel of the Lord had commanded him and took his wife into his home.
25 Et non cognoscebat eam donec peperit filium suum primogenitum : et vocavit nomen ejus Jesum.	25 He had no relations with her until she bore a son, and he named him Jesus.
