Normally the OET discourages the reading of individual ‘verses’, but this view is only designed for doing comparisons of different translations.

1:27 engaged to be married: In Jewish culture, marriages were arranged, and engagement was a formal legal contract between two families. Girls were normally married by their mid-teens.
• Joseph, a descendant of King David: See Matt 1:1-16. Joseph’s ancestry is significant because the Messiah was to be a descendant of King David (2 Sam 7:11-16; Isa 9:7).
Note 1 topic: writing-participants
ἀνδρὶ, ᾧ ὄνομα Ἰωσὴφ
˱to˲_/a/_man whose name_‹was› Joseph
This introduces Joseph as a new character in the story. If your language has an expression of its own that serves this purpose, you could use it here.
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor
ἐξ οἴκου Δαυεὶδ
of /the/_house (Some words not found in SR-GNT: πρὸς παρθένον ἐμνηστευμένην ἀνδρὶ ᾧ ὄνομα Ἰωσὴφ ἐξ οἴκου Δαυὶδ καὶ τὸ ὄνομα τῆς παρθένου Μαριάμ)
In this expression, the word house describes all the people descended from a particular person. The term views all of those descendants as if they were one household living together. Alternate translation: [who was a descendant of King David]
Note 3 topic: writing-background
ἐξ οἴκου Δαυεὶδ
of /the/_house (Some words not found in SR-GNT: πρὸς παρθένον ἐμνηστευμένην ἀνδρὶ ᾧ ὄνομα Ἰωσὴφ ἐξ οἴκου Δαυὶδ καὶ τὸ ὄνομα τῆς παρθένου Μαριάμ)
This is background information that helps identify Joseph further. It is important for readers to know because it means that as 1:32 indicates, Jesus, as the adoptive son of Joseph, will be an eligible successor to King David as the Messiah. Alternate translation: [who came from the royal line of David]
Note 4 topic: writing-participants
τὸ ὄνομα τῆς παρθένου Μαριάμ
the name ˱of˲_the virgin_‹was› Mary
This introduces Mary as a new character in the story. If your language has an expression of its own that serves this purpose, you could use it here.
