Christ riseth from the dead. Mary the mother of James, and Salome, had bought sweet spices, b that they might come and anoint him.

2 And very early in the morning, the first day of the week, they came unto the sepulchre at the rising of the sun.

3 And they said among themselves, Who shall roll us away the stone

full of vinegar, and put it on a reed, v Mat.27.50. from the door of the sepulchre? and gave u him to drink, saying. Let alone let us see whether Elias will come to take him down. 37 And v Jesus cried with a loud voice, and gave up the ghost. 38 And the veil of the temple was rent in twain, from the top to the bottom. 39 And when the centurion, which stood over against him, saw that he so cried out, and gave up the ghost, he said, Truly this man was the Son of God.

40 There were also women looking on afar off; among whom was Mary Magdalene, and Mary the mother of James the less and of Joses, and Salome;

7 But go your way, tell his disciples and Peter that he goeth before you into Galilee: there shall ye see him, as he said unto you.

8 And they went out quickly, and fled from the sepulchre; for they trembled and were amazed: neither said they any thing to any man; for they were afraid."

12 And when Zacharias saw him, he was troubled, n and fear fell upon him.

14 And thou shalt have joy and gladness; and many shall rejoice p at his birth.

16 And many of the children of Israel shall he turn to the Lord their God.

17 And he t shall go before him in the spirit and power of Elias, to turn the hearts of the fathers to the children, and the disobedient 1 to the wisdom u of the just; to make ready a people v prepared for the Lord.

18 And Zacharias said unto the angel, Whereby shall I know this! for I am an old man, and my wife well stricken in years.

20 And, behold, thou shalt be dumb, and not able to speak, "util the day that these things shal be performed, because thou believest not my words, which shall be fal filled in their season.

21 And the people waited for Zacharias, and marvelled that he tarried so long in the temple.

| Elisabeth heard the salutation of Mary, the babe leaped in her womb; and Elisabeth was filled with the Holy Ghost:

42 And she spake out with a loud voice, and said, Blessed p art thou among women, and blessed is the fruit of thy womb.

43 And whence is this to me, that the mother of my Lord q should come to me?

44 For lo, as soon as the voice of thy salutation sounded in mine ears, the babe leaped in my womb for joy.

45 And blessed is she 3 that believed: for there shall be a performance of those things which were told her from the Lord.

46 And Mary said, My r soul doth magnify the Lord,

47 And my spirit hath rejoiced s in God my Saviour.

48 For he hath regarded the low t estate of his handmaiden: for, behold, from henceforth all generations shall call me u blessed.

58 And her neighbours and her cousins heard how the Lord had showed great mercy upon her; and they f rejoiced with her.

59 And it came to pass, that on the eighth day they came to circumcise the child; and they called him Zacharias, after the name of his father.

60 And his mother answered and said, Not so; but he shall be called John.

2 (And this taxing was first made when Cyrenius was governor of Syria.)

3 And all went to be taxed, every one into his own city.

4 And Joseph also went up from Galilee, out of the city of Nazareth, into Judea, unto the city of David, which is called Bethlehem, (because he was of the house and lineage of David.)

5 To be taxed with Mary his espoused wife, being great with child.

6 And so it was, that, while they were there, the days were accomplished that she should bedelivered. 7 And she a brought forth her firstborn son, and wrapped him in swaddiing-clothes, and laid him in a manger; because there was no room for them in the inn.

8 And there were in the same country shepherds abiding in the field, keeping 2 watch over their flock by night.

9 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.

10 And the angel said unto them, Fear not for, behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy, which shall be to all people.

in the city of David, a Saviour, 11 For unto youb is born this day, which is Christ the Lord.

12 And this shall be a sign unto you: Ye shall find the babe wrapped in swaddling-clothes, lying in a manger.

13 And suddenly there was with the angel ca multitude of the heavenly host, praising God, and say

ing,

14 Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, d good will toward

men.

15 And it came to pass, as the angels were gone away from them into heaven, 3 the shepherds said one to another, Let us now go even unto Bethlehem, and see this thing which is come to pass, which the

Lord hath made known unto us.

16 And they came with haste, and found Mary, and Joseph, and the babe lying in a manger.

17 And when they had seen it, they made known abroad the saying which was told them concerning this child.

18 And all they that heard it wondered at those things which were told them by the shepherds.

19 But Mary kept all these things, and pondered them in her heart.
