It came to pass then in the days those, went out a decree from Caesar Augustus to register all the world.

This registration first took place when is governing Syria Quirinius.

And were going all to be registered, each to the their own city.

Went up then also Joseph, from Galilee out of [the] town of Nazareth, to Judea, to [the] City of David, which is called Bethlehem, because of being his of [the] house and family of David,

to register with Mary, who [was] betrothed to him, she being with child.

It came to pass then in their being them there, were fulfilled the days of the giving birth of her.

And she brought forth the son of her, the firstborn, and wrapped in swaddling cloths him, and laid Him in a manger, because not there was for them a place in the inn.

And shepherds were in the region same, lodging in the fields and keeping watch by night over the flock of them.

And an angel of [the] Lord stood by them, and [the] glory of [the] Lord shone around them, and they feared [with] fear great.

And said to them the angel, Not do fear; behold, for I bring good news to you [of] joy great, which will be to all the people.

For has been born to you today a Savior, who is Christ [the] Lord, in [the] City of David.

And this [is] to you the sign: You will find a baby swaddled, and lying in a manger.

And suddenly there came with the angel a multitude of [the] host heavenly, praising God and saying:

Glory in [the] highest to God, and on earth peace among men of good-will

And it came to pass, as were departing from them into the heaven the angels, the shepherds were speaking to one another, Let us go through indeed as far as Bethlehem, and let us see declaration this that having happened which the Lord has made known to us.

And they came having hurried, and found both Mary and Joseph, and the baby, lying in the manger.

Having seen now, they made known concerning the declaration which having been told to them concerning Child this.

And all those having heard marveled concerning the things having been spoken by the shepherds to them.

And returned the shepherds, glorifying and praising God for all things which they had heard and seen, as it was said to them.

And when were fulfilled days eight to circumcise Him, then was called the name of Him Jesus, which He had been called by the angel before conceiving He in the womb.

And when were fulfilled the days of the purification of them according to the law of Moses, they brought Him to Jerusalem, to present to the Lord

as it has been written in [the] law of [the] Lord that: Every male opening a womb holy to the Lord will be called,”

and to offer a sacrifice, according to that said in the law of [the] Lord, A pair of turtle doves or two young pigeons.”

And behold, a man there was in Jerusalem, whose name [was] Simeon; and man this [was] righteous and devout, waiting for [the] consolation of Israel, and [the] Spirit was Holy upon him.
