And Mary abode with her about three months, and returned to her house.

And her neighbours and kinsfolk heard that the Lord had magnified his mercy with her, and they rejoiced with her.

And they said to her, There is no one among thy kinsfolk who is called by this name.

and she brought forth her first-born son, and wrapped him up in swaddling-clothes and laid him in the manger, because there was no room for them in the inn.
