And it came
to pass in those
days that a
decree went out
from Caesar
Augustus that
all the world
should be
registered. So
all went to be
registered,
everyone to his
own city. Joseph
also went up out
of Galilee, out
of the city of
Nazareth, into
Judea, to the
city of David,
which is called
Bethlehem,
because he was
of the house and
of the lineage
of David, to be
registered with
Mary, his
betrothed wife,
who was with
child.
When they
arrived in
Bethlehem, the
town was full of
people who had
also come to be
registered. It
was time for
Mary to give
birth, and so,
they tried to
find room at the
inn. But, the
inn was crowded,
and there was no
room. Except,
well, the
stable, where
the hay was in
the back. And
so, Mary and
Joseph went to
the lowly
shelter and
there, Jesus was
born.

And there
were in the same
country,
shepherds in the
fields, keeping
watch over their
flocks by night.
And lo, the
angel of the
Lord came upon
them, And glory
shone all around
Fear not, for
behold, I bring
you good tidings
of great joy!
For unto you is
born this day in
the city of
David
a Savior, which
is Christ The
Lord.
