LUKE 2 8-20

  🍃🕊️12/23 - GospeL Verses 🍃🕊️

8 - And that night, nearby, there were shepherds out in the field, keeping watch over their sheep, 9 when an angel of the Lord appeared to them. And the glory of the Lord shone round about them, and they were marveling and afraid. 10 But the angel said, “Fear not, for listen, I bring you good news. News of great joy that will be for all people. 11 For unto you is born, this day, in the city of David, a Savior, who is Christ the Lord. 12 And this will be a sign for you, you will find a baby wrapped in swaddling cloths and lying in a manger.” (In a feeding trough.) 13 And suddenly! There was a multitude of angels, praising God and saying, 14 “Glory to God in the highest! And on earth peace with mankind! His pleasure and delight!”

     15 When the angels had gone, the shepherds said to one another, “Let’s go into Bethlehem and see this thing that has happened! Which the LORD has made known to us!” 16 And they went with haste, and found Mary and Joseph, and saw the baby lying in a manger. 17 And they shared all they had been told concerning the child. 18 And all who heard it wondered. 19 But Mary treasured up all these things, pondering them in her heart. 20 And the shepherds returned to the field, glorifying and praising God for all they had heard and seen, just as it had been told to them.
