Luke 1:26-38 - The Prediction Of Jesus' Birth
26 In the sixth month the angel Gabriel was sent from God to a city of Galilee, named Nazareth, 27 to a virgin contracted to a man; whose name was Joseph, of the house of David. and the virgin's name was Mary. 28 the angel, upon his arrival, said to her; "Hail, favorite of heaven, the Lord is with thee: thou happiest of thy sex." 29 Mary was surpriz'd at the voice of such an appearance, and wonder'd what the meaning of this salutation should be. 30 but the angel said to her, "Mary, be not afraid: for you are the object of divine favour. 31 you shall be now pregnant, and be delivered of a son, whom you shall name JESUS. 32 he shall be great, he shall be the son of the most high. the Lord God shall give him the throne of his father David. 33 he shall reign over the house of Jacob, and of his kingdom there shall be no end."
34 Then said Mary to the angel, what shall this be without any intercourse with man?
35 the angel answered her, "the holy spirit shall descend upon thee, and the power of the most high shall over-shadow thee: wherefore thy holy offspring shall be called the son of God.
36 even your cousin Elizabeth, as old as she is, is become pregnant with a son: she, who was stiled barren, is now in her sixth month; 37 for nothing is impossible to God."
38 then said Mary, "behold the servant of the Lord, be it unto me according to thy word." upon which the angel disappeared.
