Matthew 1:21 in Context — Matthew 1

19 Então José, seu marido, sendo justo, e não querendo a expor à infâmia, pensou em deixá-la secretamente.

20 E ele, pretendendo isto, eis que um anjo do Senhor lhe apareceu em sonho, dizendo: José, filho de Davi, não temas receber Maria, tua mulher, porque o que nela está concebido é do Espírito Santo.

21 E ela dará à luz um filho, e tu chamarás seu nome Jesus; porque ele salvará seu povo de seus pecados.

22 E tudo isto aconteceu para que se cumprisse o que foi dito pelo Senhor por meio do profeta, que disse:

23 Eis que a virgem conceberá, e dará à luz um filho, e chamarão seu nome Emanuel, que traduzido é: Deus conosco.
