Natal

6 And it came to pass, while they were there, the days of her giving birth {to her child} were fulfilled,

7 and she brought forth her first-born son, and wrapped him up in swaddling-clothes and laid him in the manger, because there was no room for them in the inn.

14 Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good pleasure in men.

20 And the shepherds returned, glorifying and praising God for all things which they had heard and seen, as it had been said to them.

11 for to-day a Saviour has been born to you in David's city, who is Christ {the} Lord.

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;

14 Therefore will the Lord himself give you a sign: Behold, the virgin shall conceive and shall bring forth a son, and call his name Immanuel.

4 and Joseph also went up from Galilee out of the city Nazareth to Judaea, to David's city, the which is called Bethlehem, because he was of the house and family of David,

5 to be inscribed in the census roll with Mary who was betrothed to him {as his} wife, she being great with child.

20 but while he pondered on these things, behold, an angel of {the} Lord appeared to him in a dream, saying, Joseph, son of David, fear not to take to {thee} Mary, thy wife, for that which is begotten in her is of {the} Holy Spirit.

21 And she shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt call his name Jesus, for *he* shall save his people from their sins.

22 Now all this came to pass that that might be fulfilled which was spoken by {the} Lord, through the prophet, saying,

23 Behold, the virgin shall be with child, and shall bring forth a son, and they shall call his name Emmanuel, which is, being interpreted, 'God with us.'
