In the sixth month the angel Gabriel was sent from God to a city of Galilee named
Nazareth, to a virgin betrothed to a man whose name was Joseph, of the house
of David; and the virgin's name was Mary. And he came to her and said, "Hail,
full of grace, the Lord is with you!" But she was greatly troubled at the saying
and considered in her mind what sort of greeting this might be. And the angel
said to her, "Do not be afraid, Mary, for you have found favor with God. And
behold, you will conceive in your womb and bear a son, and you shall call his
name Jesus. He will be great and will be called the Son of the Most High; and
the Lord God will give to him the throne of his father David, and he will reign
over the house of Jacob forever; and of his kingdom there will be no end."
