Joy and gladness will come<n id="1" /> to you, and many will rejoice at<n id="2" /> his birth,<n id="3" />

And blessed<n id="1" /> is she who believed that<n id="2" /> what was spoken to her by<n id="3" /> the Lord would be fulfilled.&#8221;<n id="4" />p>

So then, if<n id="1" /> you will worship<n id="2" /> me, all this will be<n id="3" /> yours.&#8221;

But it will be more bearable for Tyre and Sidon in the judgment than for you!

For where your treasure<n id="1" /> is, there your heart will be also.p>

And when you see the south wind<n id="1" /> blowing, you say, &#8216;There will be scorching heat,&#8217; and there is.

It will be the same on the day the Son of Man is revealed.

He<n id="1" /> will reign over the house of Jacob<n id="2" /> forever, and his kingdom will never end.&#8221;

Mary<n id="1" /> said to the angel, &#8220;How will this be, since I have not had sexual relations with<n id="2" /> a man?&#8221;

A disciple<n id="1" /> is not greater than<n id="2" /> his teacher, but everyone when fully trained will be like his teacher.

I tell you, it will be more bearable on that day for Sodom<n id="1" /> than for that town!<n id="2" />p>

Just<n id="1" /> as it was<n id="2" /> in the days of Noah,<n id="3" /> so too it will be in the days of the Son of Man.

There will be great earthquakes, and famines<n id="1" /> and plagues in various places, and there will be terrifying sights<n id="2" /> and great signs<n id="3" /> from heaven.

But from now on<n id="1" /> <i>the Son of Man will be seated at the right handi><n id="2" /> of the power<n id="3" /> of God.&#8221;

for he will be great in the sight of<n id="1" /> the Lord. He<n id="2" /> must never drink wine or strong drink, and he will be filled with the Holy Spirit, even before his birth.<n id="3" />

He<n id="1" /> will be great,<n id="2" /> and will be called the Son of the Most High,<n id="3" /> and the Lord God will give him the throne of his father<n id="4" /> David.

But the angel said to them, &#8220;Do not be afraid! Listen carefully,<n id="1" /> for I proclaim to you good news<n id="2" /> that brings great joy to all the people:

<p class="otpoetry"><i><b>Every valley will be filled,b>i><n id="1" />p> <p class="otpoetry"><b><i>and every mountain and hill will be brought low,i>b>p> <p class="otpoetry"><b><i>and the crooked will be made straight,i>b>p> <p class="otpoetry"><b><i>and the rough ways will be made smooth,i>b>p>

For just as Jonah became a sign to the people of Nineveh,<n id="1" /> so the Son of Man will be a sign<n id="2" /> to this generation.<n id="3" />

But God said to him, &#8216;You fool! This very night your life<n id="1" /> will be demanded back from<n id="2" /> you, but who will get what you have prepared for yourself?&#8217;<n id="3" />
