But you, O Bethlehem Ephrathah, who are too little to be among the clans of Judah from you shall come forth to me one who is to be ruler in Israel.1
Therefore, the Lord himself will give you a sign. Behold, the virgin shall conceive and bear a son, and shall call his name Immanuel.2
For a child will be born for us, a son will be given to us, and the government will be on his shoulders. He will be named Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Eternal Father, Prince of Peace.3
But when the fullness of the time came, God sent forth His Son, born of a woman, born under the Law, so that He might redeem those who were under the Law, that we might receive the adoption as sons.4
And she will bring forth a Son, and you shall call His name JESUS, for He will save His people from their sins.5
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.6
The Word became flesh and took up residence among us.7
He is a light to reveal God to the nations, and he is the glory of your people Israel.8
The Son of Man came to find lost people and save them.9
All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth.10
I kept them in Your name,11
May the God of peace be with you all. Amen.12
