02:01 .. now in those days a decree went out from Caesar Augustus .. that a census be taken of all the inhabited earth
02:02 .. this was the first census taken while Quirinius was governor of Syria
02:03 .. and everyone was on his way to register for the census .. each to his own city
02:04 .. Joseph also went up from Galilee .. from the city of Nazareth .. to Judea .. to the city of David which is called Bethlehem ..
.......... because he was of the house and family of David
02:05 .. in order to register along with Mary .. who was engaged to him .. and was with child
02:06 .. while they were there .. the days were completed for her to give birth
02:07 .. and she gave birth to her firstborn son .. and she wrapped him in cloths .. and laid him in a manger ..
.......... because there was no room for them in the inn

02:08 .. In the same region there were some shepherds staying out in the fields and keeping watch over their flock by night
02:09 .. and an angel of the Lord suddenly stood before them .. and the glory of the Lord shone around them .. and they were terribly frightened
02:10 .. but the angel said to them . . . do not be afraid .. for behold .. I bring you good news of great joy which will be for all the people
02:11 .. for today in the city of David there has been born for you a Savior .. who is Christ the Lord
02:12 .. this will be a sign for you .. you will find a baby wrapped in cloths and lying in a manger
02:13 .. and suddenly there appeared with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising God and saying
02:14 .. glory to God in the highest .. and on earth peace among men with whom he is pleased

02:15 .. when the angels had gone away from them into heaven .. the shepherds began saying to one another . . .
.......... let us go straight to Bethlehem then .. and see this thing that has happened which the Lord has made known to us
02:16 .. so they came in a hurry and found their way to Mary and Joseph .. and the baby as he lay in the manger
02:17 .. when they had seen this .. they made known the statement which had been told them about this Child
02:18 .. and all who heard it wondered at the things which were told them by the shepherds
02:19 .. but Mary treasured all these things .. pondering them in her heart
02:20 .. the shepherds went back .. glorifying and praising God for all that they had heard and seen .. just as had been told them
02:21 .. and when eight days had passed .. before his circumcision .. his name was then called Jesus ..
......... the name given by the angel before he was conceived in the womb
