Luke 2:8-12
The Shepherds’ Visit
2:8 Now there were shepherds nearby living out in the field, keeping guard over their flock at night.
2:9 An angel of the Lord appeared to them, and the glory of the Lord shone around them, and they were absolutely terrified.
2:10 But the angel said to them, “Do not be afraid! Listen carefully, for I proclaim to you good news that brings great joy to all the people:
2:11 Today your Savior is born in the city of David. He is Christ the Lord.
2:12 This will be a sign for you: You will find a baby wrapped in strips of cloth and lying in a manger.”
