* And the agent having come in near her , he said , Hail , thou who are highly favored . The Lord is with thee , thou who are blessed among women . * But having seen , she was perplexed at his saying , and was pondering what kind of greeting this might be . * And the agent said to her , Fear not , Mary , for thou have found favor with God . * And behold , thou will conceive in thy womb , and bring forth a son . And thou shall call his name JESUS . * This man will be great , and will be called the Son of the Most High . And the Lord God will give to him the throne of his father David . * And he will reign over the house of Jacob into the ages . And of his kingdom there will be no end . * And Mary said to the agent , How will this be , since I know not a man ? * And having answered , the agent said to her , Holy Spirit will come upon thee , and the power of the Most High will overshadow thee . Therefore also the holy thing that is begotten will be called the Son of God . * And behold , Elizabeth thy kinswoman , she also has conceived a son in her old age , and this is the sixth month with her who was called barren . * For no word from God will be impossible . * And Mary said , Behold the maid-servant of Lord . May it happen to me according to thy word . And the agent departed from her .
