Nascimento de Jesus
37 So Pilate said, So you really are a king then? Jesus answered, You say that I am a king. The reason that I was born was that I should tell what is true. That is why I came into the world. Everyone who likes what is true listens to what I say.
30 The angel said to her, Do not be afraid, Mary. God has blessed you.
31 You will have a baby son. Name him Jesus.
32 He will be a great man. He will be called the Son of the Highest One a name for God . The Lord God will make him king where his father David was king.
33 He will be king over the people of Israel for ever. He will never stop being king.
5 Think the same way Jesus Christ thought.
6 He was in every way like God. Yet he did not think that being equal to God was something he must hold on to.
7 He gave this up and became a servant. He was born a baby.
8 And when he was a man, he was humble. He was even willing to die, yes, to die on a cross.
16 God loved the world so very, very much that he gave his only Son. Because he did that, everyone who believes in him will not lose his life, but will live for ever.
4 Joseph also went from the town of Nazareth in Galilee to the town of Bethlehem in Judea. This was Davids town, and Joseph came from Davids family line.
5 He went to have his name written in the book. Joseph took Mary with him. She was promised to Joseph to be his wife. She was going to have a baby.
6 While they were there, the time came for her baby to be born.
7 This was her first child, a son. She wrapped him in a cloth and laid him in a box where cows feed. There was no room for them in the house for strangers.
20 While he was thinking about this, he had a dream. An angel of the Lord came to him. He said, Joseph, Davids son, do not fear to take Mary to be your wife. Her baby is by the Holy Spirit.
21 She will have a baby son. Name him Jesus, because he will save his people from the wrong things they have done.
22 All of this had been told long before by the Lord through his prophet. It came true.
23 The prophet said, A young woman who has not slept with a man is going to have a baby son. His name will be Emmanuel. That means "God is with us."
24 Joseph woke up and did what the angel of the Lord told him to do. He took Mary to be his wife.
25 But he did not make love with her until her first son had been born. He named him Jesus.
14 Gods children all have a body. That is why Jesus himself had the same. But because Jesus also had a body, he was able to die and stop the devil. The devil has power to make people die. But Jesus, by his own death, was able to stop the power of death.
15 People were afraid to die. All their lives they were like slaves. When Jesus died, he was able to set them free from their fear.
17 So he had to be made like his brothers in every way. Then he could be a high priest to make a way to God for them, a priest who was kind and true. He could make it possible for God to forgive people for the wrong things they had done.
15 The angels left them and went back to heaven. The men who were taking care of the sheep said to one another Let us go to Bethlehem and see what has happened. It is the Lord who has told us about it.
16 They went quickly. They found Mary and Joseph, and the baby lying in the box where cows feed.
17 When they saw the child, they told what the angel had said to them about him.
18 All those who heard them were surprised at what the shepherds had told them.
9 After they heard what the king said, they went away. And the star, which they had seen rising, went in front of them. It stopped above the place where the child was.
10 When they saw the star, they were very glad.
11 They went into the house, and there they saw the child and Mary his mother. They kneeled down and worshipped him. Then they opened their bags and gave him gifts. These gifts were gold, and frankincense and myrrh.
12 In a dream they were told not to go back to Herod. So they went home by a different road.
4 But when the right time came, God sent his Son to make us free. He was born by a woman during the time when men had to obey the law.
5 God sent him to set the people free who were under the law. God sent him so that we would receive our rights as sons of God.
10 The angel said to them, Fear not! Listen, I bring you good news! This news will make you very glad. It is for all people.
11 A saviour has been born for you today in Davids town. He is Christ the Lord.
12 This is the way you will know him. You will find a baby wrapped in a cloth, lying in a box where cows feed.
18 This is the way Jesus Christ was born. Mary, his mother, was promised to Joseph to be his wife. But before they were married, she found out that she was going to have a baby. It was by the Holy Spirit.
