Luke 2:20

2:20 So ¹  the shepherds returned, glorifying and praising ²  God for all they had heard and seen; everything was just as they had been told. ³ 

¹ tn Here καί (kai) has been translated as “so” to indicate the conclusion of the topic.

² sn The mention of glorifying and praising God is the second note of praise in this section; see Luke 2:13-14.

³ tn Grk “just as [it] had been spoken to them.” This has been simplified in the English translation by making the prepositional phrase (“to them”) the subject of the passive verb.
