Matthew 1:24-25:

 NIV: 
24 When Joseph woke up, he did what the angel of the Lord had commanded him and took Mary home as his wife. 25 But he did not consummate their marriage until she gave birth to a son. And he gave him the name Jesus.

NCB: 
24 When Joseph rose from sleep, he did what the angel of the Lord had commanded him. He took Mary into his home as his wife, 25 but he engaged in no marital relations[a] with her until she gave birth to a son, whom he named Jesus

RSVCE: 
24 When Joseph woke from sleep, he did as the angel of the Lord commanded him; he took his wife, 25 but knew her not until she had borne a son;[a] and he called his name Jesus.

WYC:

24 And Joseph rose [up] from sleep, and did as the angel of the Lord commanded him, and took Mary, his wife; [Soothly Joseph rising up from sleep, did as the angel of the Lord bade him, and took his wife;]

25 and he knew her not, till she had born her first begotten son, and he called his name Jesus.

YLT

24 And Joseph, having risen from the sleep, did as the messenger of the Lord directed him, and received his wife,

25 and did not know her till she brought forth her son -- the first-born, and he called his name Jesus.
KJV

24 Then Joseph being raised from sleep did as the angel of the Lord had bidden him, and took unto him his wife:


25 And knew her not till she had brought forth her firstborn son: and he called his name Jesus.
NWT 

  • 24 Then Joseph woke up from his sleep and did as the angel of Jehovah had directed him, and he took his wife home. 25 But he did not have sexual relations with her until she gave birth to a son,+ and he named him Jesus.+

    There's another fine myth shattered by a little light reading. Imagine what studying would get you?
