8 And there were shepherds in that country abiding without, and keeping watch by night over their flock.

9 And lo, an angel of {the} Lord was there by them, and {the} glory of {the} Lord shone around them, and they feared {with} great fear.

10 And the angel said to them, Fear not, for behold, I announce to you glad tidings of great joy, which shall be to all the people;

8 I taua wahi hoki etahi hepara e noho koraha ana, e tiaki ana i ta ratou kahui i te po.

9 Na tu ana tetahi anahera a te Ariki i o ratou taha, a whiti ana te kororia o te Ariki ki a ratou a tawhio noa; a nui whakaharahara to ratou wehi.

10 Na ka mea te anahera ki a ratou, Kaua e mataku: ta te mea he kaikauwhau tenei ahau ki a koutou mo te hari nui, meake puta mai ki te iwi katoa.
