Neither does the American Standard Version(ASV).
Apparently, from searching about this, it depends upon which early manuscript is used as to whether it includes "ἐκ σοῦ".
At Luke 1:35, the 1534 Tyndale's New Testament has "And the angel answered and said unto her: The holy Ghost shall come upon thee, and the power of the Highest shall overshadow thee. Therefore also that holy thing which shall be born, shall be called the Son of God."

The ASV Luke 1:35 has translation note: Some ancient authorities insert of thee.
Only one version, the kjv, followed the variant, and not by following TR. A few other versions, however, note the inclusion of the phrase “of you.”

Okay. The particular ASV I was looking at online did not have notes.

The NKJV has NO note regarding Luke 1:35, omission.

The whole context is the angel Gabriel telling Mary that she will bear a Son. Mary asks how such a thing could be, since she does not know (in the sense of having intimate relations with) a man. Whether or not the words "of thee" are included in Gabriel's reply in verse 35, the context shows that he is talking of the Baby Mary will bear. It wouldn't make any sense at all for Mary to ask, "How can I have a baby?", then for Gabriel to answer about somebody else having a baby.
The extra words are missing from most editions of theTextus Receptus . It's missing in Stephanus and Elzever editions. I believe it is in Beza's who might of gotten it from the Latin. It's in the Anglo Saxon and Wycliffe Versions.
Missing from the Majority Text as well.

Ding, Ding, Ding! We Have a Winner!!
And Mary Giving Birth to Jesus happens to be a direct Fulfillment of the Prophecy in Isaiah 7:14;
"Therefore the Lord Himself Will Give you a Sign: Behold, the virgin Will be with Child and Will Give Birth to a Son, and Will Call Him Immanuel" and is linked to many other Scriptures throughout the Bible, as well.
| How does Luke 1:35 connect to Old Testament Prophecies about the Messiah? "Setting the Scene"; "Gabriel has just told Mary she will bear the long-awaited Deliverer. Luke 1:35 records the crucial line: “The Angel replied, ‘The Holy Spirit Will Come upon you, and the Power of the Most High Will Overshadow you. "Therefore the Holy One to be Born of thee Will be Called the Son of God.’” "Every phrase reaches back into the Scriptures Mary knew. “The Holy Spirit Will Come upon you” • Genesis 1:2 – “The Spirit of God was Hovering over the surface of the waters.” The same Creative Spirit Who Formed the Original Creation now Fashions the Humanity of the Messiah. • Isaiah 11:2 – “The Spirit of the LORD Will Rest on Him…” Gabriel identifies Jesus as that Spirit-Anointed Shoot from Jesse’s stump. “The power of the Most High Will Overshadow you” • "Exodus 40:34-35 – The Cloud of Glory “Covered (LXX: ἐπεσκίαζεν) the Tent,” signaling God’s Dwelling among His people. "Luke uses the same Greek verb for the Cloud over the Tabernacle and the Spirit’s Overshadowing of Mary. God is once again Pitching His Tent—this time in flesh. • "Psalm 91:1 – The one who Dwells “in the Shelter of the Most High” abides “in the Shadow of the Almighty.” Mary now becomes the Living Sanctuary where that Shadow Falls. “Therefore the Holy One to be born…” • "Psalm 16:10 – “You will not let Your Holy One see decay.” The title “Holy One” belongs to the Promised Messiah, hinting at His Sinlessness and Ultimate Victory over Death. • "Isaiah 4:3; 49:7 – Israel’s Redeemer is repeatedly called “the Holy One,” and Gabriel applies the same designation to the Child. “…will be called the Son of God.” • "2 Samuel 7:12-14 – God Promises David, “I will be His Father, and He Will be My Son.” Luke emphasizes that the King in David’s line is literally God’s Son by Divine Conception. • "Psalm 2:7 – “You are My Son; today I have become Your Father.” Gabriel’s wording mirrors this Coronation Psalm. • "Isaiah 9:6 – “Unto us a Child is Born… and His Name Will be called… Mighty God.” The Messiah is both Child and Deity, exactly what Gabriel announces. "The Virgin Sign Foretold"; • "Isaiah 7:14 – “Behold, the virgin will Conceive and give birth to a son, and will call Him Immanuel.” Luke 1:35 explains how a true virgin Conception is possible: the Spirit’s Miraculous Overshadowing. “Immanuel” means “God with us,” fulfilled when God takes on flesh inside Mary. "Seed of the Woman Promise"; • "Genesis 3:15 – The first Prophecy calls the Deliverer “her Seed,” an unusual phrase emphasizing a woman’s offspring without mention of a man. "Luke shows that the Ultimate Seed Comes solely through a woman, Conceived by God Himself. "Davidic Line and Eternal Kingship"; • "Jeremiah 23:5-6 – “I Will Raise Up for David a Righteous Branch, a King Who Will Reign Wisely… and this is His Name… ‘The LORD Our Righteousness.’” • "Micah 5:2 – From Bethlehem Will Come One “Whose Origins are from of Old, from the Days of Eternity.” "Luke 1:35’s declaration of Divine Sonship matches Micah’s portrait of an Eternal Ruler Entering Time. "Messiah’s Dual Nature Foreshadowed"; "Old Testament texts present the Coming One as both Divine and human. "Luke 1:35 shows how both Natures Unite: • "Human – born of Mary, Heir to David. • "Divine – Conceived by the Spirit, called Son of God. "Bringing the Threads Together"; "Luke 1:35 is not an isolated New Testament novelty but the Spirit’s Spotlight on Promises stretching back to Eden: • "Virgin Conception (Isaiah 7:14) • "Seed of the woman (Genesis 3:15) • "Spirit-Anointed Ruler (Isaiah 11:2) • "Holy One Who will not see decay (Psalm 16:10) • "Son in David’s line yet Son of God (2 Samuel 7:14; Psalm 2:7) • "God Himself Dwelling with His people (Exodus 40; Isaiah 9:6) "Gabriel’s words weave every Prophecy into a single fabric: the Messiah is Miraculously Conceived, Utterly Holy, Truly God, and Truly man—the Long-Promised Savior finally Stepping into History." |

I just see where these versions have "of thee", "of you", "[born of you]", "your child", etc. , besides the King James Bible.

It is stunning and surprising all the Versions that just leave that portion of the Scripture out. Name them.
