Luke 2:8-20

8And there wereG1510 shepherdsG4166 in that countryG5561 abiding without, and keepingG5442 watchG5438 by nightG3571 over their flockG4167.

9And lo, an angelG32 of [the] LordG2962 was there by them, and [the] gloryG1391 of [the] LordG2962 shoneG4034 around them, and they fearedG5399 [with] greatG3173 fearG5401.

10And the angelG32 saidG3004 to them, FearG5399 not, for beholdG2400, I announce to you glad tidings of greatG3173 joyG5479, which shall beG1510 to all the peopleG2992;

11for to-day a Saviour has beenG1510 bornG5088 to you in David's cityG4172, who isG1510 ChristG5547 [the] LordG2962.

12And this is the signG4592 to you: ye shall findG2147 a babe wrapped in swaddling-clothes, and lyingG2749 in a mangerG5336.

13And suddenlyG1810 there was with the angelG32 a multitudeG4128 of the heavenlyG3770 hostG4756, praisingG134 1GodG2316 and sayingG3004,

14GloryG1391 to 2GodG2316 in the highestG5310, and on earthG1093 peaceG1515, goodG2107 pleasureG2107 in menG444.

15And it cameG1096 to passG1330, as the angelsG32 departedG565 from them into heavenG3772, that the shepherdsG4166 saidG2980 to oneG240 another, Let us makeG1107 our way then now as farG2193 as BethlehemG965, and let us seeG3708 this thingG3778 that is comeG1096 to passG1330, which the LordG2962 has made known to us.

16And they cameG2064 with haste, and found both MaryG3137 and JosephG2501, and the babe lyingG2749 in the mangerG5336;

17and having seenG3708 [it] they madeG1107 known about the country the thingG3778 which had been saidG2980 to them concerningG4012 this childG3813.

18And all who heardG191 [it] wonderedG2296 at the thingsG3956 saidG2980 to them by the shepherdsG4166.

19But MaryG3137 kept all these thingsG3778 [in her mind], pondering [them] in her heartG2588.

20And the shepherdsG4166 returnedG5290, glorifyingG1392 and praisingG134 3GodG2316 for all thingsG3956 which they had heardG191 and seenG3708, as it had been saidG2980 to them.
