Luke 1:27-38
1:27 to a virgin engaged to a man whose name was Joseph, a descendant of David, and the virgin’s name was Mary.
1:28 The angel came to her and said, “Greetings, favored one, the Lord is with you!”
1:29 But she was greatly troubled by his words and began to wonder about the meaning of this greeting.
1:30 So the angel said to her, “Do not be afraid, Mary, for you have found favor with God!
1:31 Listen: You will become pregnant and give birth to a son, and you will name him Jesus.
1:32 He will be great, and will be called the Son of the Most High, and the Lord God will give him the throne of his father David.
1:33 He will reign over the house of Jacob forever, and his kingdom will never end.”
1:34 Mary said to the angel, “How will this be, since I have not had sexual relations with a man?”
1:35 The angel replied, “The Holy Spirit will come upon you, and the power of the Most High will overshadow you. Therefore the child to be born will be holy; he will be called the Son of God.
1:36 “And look, your relative Elizabeth has also become pregnant with a son in her old age – although she was called barren, she is now in her sixth month!
1:37 For nothing will be impossible with God.”
1:38 So Mary said, “Yes, I am a servant of the Lord; let this happen to me according to your word.” Then the angel departed from her.
