And Joseph also went up from Galilee,
out of the city of Nazareth, into Judaea,
unto the city of David, which is called
Bethlehem; (because he was of the house
and lineage of David:) To be taxed with
Mary his espoused wife, being great with
child. And so it was, that, while they were
there, the days were accomplished that
she should be delivered. And she brought
forth her firstborn son, and wrapped him
in swaddling clothes, and laid him in a manger;
because there was no room for them in the inn.
And there were in the same country shepherds
abiding in the field, keeping watch over their
flock by night. And, lo, the angel of the
Lord came upon them, and the glory of the
Lord shone round about them: and they were
sore afraid. And the angel said unto them,
Fear not: for, behold, I bring you good
tidings of great joy, which shall be to
all people. For unto you is born this day
in the city of David a Saviour, which
is Christ the Lord. And this shall be a
sign unto you; Ye shall find the babe
wrapped in swaddling clothes, lying
in a manger. And suddenly there was
with the angel a multitude of the
heavenly host praising God, and
saying, Glory to God in the highest,
and on earth peace, good will toward
men. And it came to pass, as the angels
were gone away from them into heaven, the
shepherds said one to another, Let us now
go even unto Bethlehem, and see this thing
which is come to pass, which the Lord hath
made known unto us. And they came with
haste, and found Mary, and Joseph, and the
babe lying in a manger And when they had
seen it, they made known abroad the saying
which was told them concerning this child.
Luke 2:11-17
But he, being full of the Holy Ghost,
looked up stedfastly into heaven, and saw
the glory of God, and Jesus standing on
the right hand of God, And said, Behold,
I see the heavens opened, and the Son
of man standing on the right hand of God.
Act 7:55-56
And they sung a new song, saying,
Thou art worthy to take the book,
and to open the seals thereof: for
thou wast slain, and hast redeemed
us to God by thy blood out of every
kindred, and tongue, and people, and
nation; And hast made us unto our
God kings and priests: and we shall
reign on the earth. And I beheld,
and I heard the voice of many
angels round about the throne
and the beasts and the elders: and
the number of them was ten thousand
times ten thousand, and thousands of
thousands; Saying with a loud voice,
Worthy is the Lamb that was slain
to receive power, and riches, and
wisdom, and strength, and honour,
and glory, and blessing. And every
creature which is in heaven, and on
the earth, and under the earth, and
such as are in the sea, and all that
are in them, heard I saying, Blessing,
and honour, and glory, and power,
be unto him that sitteth upon the
throne, and unto the Lamb for ever
and ever. And the four beasts said,
Amen. And the four and twenty
elders fell down and worshipped
him that liveth for ever and ever.
Revelation 5:9-14
