Because Joseph her husband was faithful to the law, and yet did not want to expose her to public disgrace, he had in mind to divorce her quietly.King James Bible

And Joseph her husband, being a righteous man, and not willing to make her a public example, was minded to put her away privily.Young's Literal Translation
and Joseph her husband being righteous, and not willing to make her an example, did wish privately to send her away.Matthew 1:19 Additional Translations
Clarke's Commentary on the BibleTo make her a public example - Παραδειγματισαι, to expose her to public infamy; from παρα, near, and δεικνυμαι, I show, or expose; what is oddly, though emphatically, called in England, showing up - exposing a character to public view. Though Joseph was a righteous man, δικαιος, and knew that the law required that such persons as he supposed his wife to be should be put to death, yet, as righteousness is ever directed by mercy, he determined to put her away or divorce her privately, i.e. without assigning any cause, that her life might be saved; and, as the offense was against himself, he had a right to pass it by if he chose. Some have supposed that the term δικαιος should be translated merciful, and it certainly often has this signification; but here it is not necessary. Treasury of Scripture Knowledge her husband.
