In the sixth month, God sent the angel Gabriel to

Nazareth, a town in Galilee, to a virgin

pledged to be married to a man named Joseph, a descendent of David. The virgin’s name was Mary. Luke 1:26-27

The angel went to her and said, “Greetings, you who are highly

has freely given us in the One he loves.

birth to a son,

and you are to give him the name Jesus. He will

be great and will be called

the Son of the Most High.”

father David, and he will reign over the house of

Jacob forever; his kingdom will never end.” v. 32-33b

Savior, for he has been mindful of the humble state of his servant.

From now on all generations will call me blessed, for the Mighty

One has done great things for me –

holy is his name.” v. 46-49

“His mercy extends to those who fear him, from generation to generation. He has

performed mighty deeds with his arm;

he has scattered those who are proud in their

inmost thoughts. He has brought down rulers

from their thrones but has

lifted up the humble.” v. 50-52

“He has filled the hungry with good things

but has sent the rich away empty. He has helped his servant

Israel,

remembering to be merciful to Abraham and his descendents forever,

even as he said to our fathers.”v. 53-55
