马太福音 Matthew 1
这整件事的发生,是要应验主借着先知所说
的:23“ 必有童女怀孕生子,他的名要叫以马
内利。”以马内利就是“ 神与我们同在”的意
思。
22
22 All this took place to fulfill what the Lord had said
through the prophet: 23 “The virgin will conceive and
give birth to a son, and they will call him Immanuel”
(which means “God with us”).

Behold, the virgin shall conceive and bear a Son, and
shall call His name Immanuel

以赛亚书 Isa 9
6因为有一个婴孩为我们而生,有一个儿子赐
给我们;政权必担在他的肩头上;他的名必

For unto us a Child is born, Unto us a Son is given;
And the government will be upon His shoulder.
And His name will be called Wonderful Counselor,
Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.
