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.
