Luke 2:1-7

1But it cameG1096 to passG1096 in those daysG2250 that a decree wentG1831 out from CaesarG2541 Augustus, that a census should be made of all the habitable worldG3625.

2The census itself firstG4413 took placeG1096 whenG1096 Cyrenius had the government of SyriaG4947.

3And all wentG4198 to be inscribed in the census roll, each to his ownG1438 cityG4172:

4and JosephG2501 alsoG2532 wentG305 up from GalileeG1056 out of the cityG4172 NazarethG3478 to Judaea, to David's cityG4172, the which isG1510 calledG2564 BethlehemG965, because he wasG1510 of the houseG3624 and familyG3965 of DavidG1138,

5to beG1510 inscribed in the census roll with MaryG3137 who wasG1510 betrothedG3423 to him [as his] wife, she beingG1510 great with child.

6And it cameG1096 to passG1096, while they wereG1510 there, the daysG2250 of her giving birthG5088 [to her child] wereG1510 fulfilled,

7and she brought forthG5088 her first-born sonG5207, and wrapped him up in swaddling-clothes and laid him in the mangerG5336, because there wasG1510 no room for them in the inn.
