Gabriel Visits Mary
Luke Chapter 1
|
| 1:26 |
And in the sixth month the angel Gabriel was sent from God unto a city of Galilee, named Nazareth, |
|
|
|
| 1:27 |
To a virgin espoused to a man whose name was Joseph, of the house of David; and the virgin's name was Mary. |
|
|
|
| 1:28 |
And the angel came in unto her, and said, Hail, thou that art highly favoured, the Lord is with thee: blessed art thou among women. |
|
|
|
| 1:29 |
And when she saw him, she was troubled at his saying, and cast in her mind what manner of salutation this should be. |
|
|
|
| 1:30 |
And the angel said unto her, Fear not, Mary: for thou hast found favour with God. |
|
|
|
| 1:31 |
And, behold, thou shalt conceive in thy womb, and bring forth a son, and shalt call his name JESUS. |
|
|
|
| 1:32 |
He shall be great, and shall be called the Son of the Highest: and the Lord God shall give unto him the throne of his father David: |
|
|
|
| 1:33 |
And he shall reign over the house of Jacob for ever; and of his kingdom there shall be no end. |
|
|
|
| 1:34 |
Then said Mary unto the angel, How shall this be, seeing I know not a man? |
|
|
|
| 1:35 |
And the angel answered and said unto her, The Holy Ghost shall come upon thee, and the power of the Highest shall overshadow thee: therefore also that holy thing which shall be born of thee shall be called the Son of God. |
|
|
|
| 1:36 |
And, behold, thy cousin Elisabeth, she hath also conceived a son in her old age: and this is the sixth month with her, who was called barren. |
|
|
|
| 1:37 |
For with God nothing shall be impossible. |
|
|
|
| 1:38 |
And Mary said, Behold the handmaid of the Lord; be it unto me according to thy word. And the angel departed from her. |
