This is how the birth of Jesus Christ came about.
When his mother Mary was betrothed to Joseph,
but before they lived together,
she was found with child through the Holy Spirit.
Joseph her husband, since he was a righteous man,
yet unwilling to expose her to shame,
decided to divorce her quietly.
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.
She will bear a son and you are to name him Jesus,
because he will save his people from their sins.”
All this took place to fulfill
what the Lord had said through the prophet:
Behold, the virgin shall be with child and bear a son,
and they shall name him Emmanuel,
which means “God is with us.”
When Joseph awoke,
he did as the angel of the Lord had commanded him
and took his wife into his home.
He had no relations with her until she bore a son,
and he named him Jesus.
Ipinanganak si Jesus
Mateo 1:18-25
Ganito ang naging kapanganakan ni Jesucristo. Ang kaniyang inang si Maria ay nakatakdang mapangasawa ni Jose. Ngunit bago pa sila nagsama, si Maria ay natagpuang nagdadalang-tao na sa pamamagitan ng Banal na Espiritu.
Si Jose na kaniyang asawa ay lalaking matuwid at hindi niya ginusto na mapahiya sa madla si Maria, kaya nagpasiya siyang paalisin nang lihim si Maria.
Samantalang iniisip niya ang mga bagay na ito, narito, isang anghel ng Panginoon ang nagpakita sa kaniya sa isang panaginip. Sinabi ng anghel: Jose, ikaw na nagmula sa angkan ni David, huwag kang mangambang tanggapin si Maria na iyong asawa. Ito ay dahil ang dinadala niya sa kaniyang sinapupunan ay sa Banal na Espiritu.
Siya ay manganganak ng isang lalaki. Ang ipangangalan mo sa kaniya ay Jesus sapagkat ililigtas niya ang kaniyang mga tao sa kanilang kasalanan.
Ang lahat ng ito ay naganap upang matupad ang sinabi ng Panginoon sa pamamagitan ng mga propeta. Sinabi nila: Narito, isang dalagang birhen ang magdadalang-tao at manganganak ng isang lalaki. Tatawagin nila siyang Emmanuel na ang ibig sabihin ay: Ang Diyos ay sumasaatin.
Sa pagbangon ni Jose mula sa pagkakatulog, ginawa niya ang ayon sa ipinag-utos sa kaniya ng anghel ng Panginoon. Tinanggap niya si Maria upang maging asawa. Hindi niya sinipingan ang kaniyang asawa hanggang sa maipanganak niya ang kaniyang panganay na anak na lalaki. Pinangalanan siya ni Jose na Jesus.
