8And shepherds were in that same country, living outside and keeping the watches of the night over their flock.9And an angel of the Lord stood by them, and the glory of the Lord shone around them, and they were terrified.10And the angel said to them, "Do not be afraid, for look, I bring you good news of great joy that will be for all the people."11For a savior has been born to you today, who is Christ the Lord, in the city of David.12And this is the sign for you: you will find an infant wrapped and lying in a manger.13And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly army, praising God and saying,14"Glory to God in the highest, and peace on earth among people of goodwill."15And it happened, when the angels had gone away from them into heaven, the shepherds said to one another, "Let us go over to Bethlehem and see this declaration that has happened, which the Lord has made known to us."16And they came with haste and found Mary and Joseph and the infant lying in the manger.17And when they had seen, they made known about the declaration that had been spoken to them about this child.18And all who heard it marveled at what the shepherds had told them.19But Mary kept all these declarations, pondering them in her heart.20And the shepherds returned, glorifying and praising God for all they had heard and seen, as it had been told them.
