Luke 2:8-12

8In the same region there were some shepherds staying out in the fields and keeping watch over their flock by night.

9And 1an angel of the Lord suddenly 2stood before them, and the glory of the Lord shone around them; and they were terribly frightened.

10But the angel said to them, “3Do not be afraid; for behold, I bring you good news of great joy which will be for all the people;

11for today in the city of David there has been born for you a 4Savior, who is 56Christ 7the Lord.

128This will be a sign for you: you will find a baby wrapped in cloths and lying in a 9manger.”
