And it came to pass in those days, that there went out a decree from Caesar 
Augustus that all the world should be taxed.  (And this taxing was first made 
when Cyrenius was governor of Syria.)  And all went to be taxed, every one into 
his own city.

    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.
