* And in the sixth month the angel Gabriel was sent from God unto a city of Galilee , named Nazareth , * To a virgin espoused to a man whose name was Joseph , of the house of David ; and the virgin 's name was Mary . * And the angel came in unto her , and said , Hail , thou that art highly favoured , the Lord is with thee : blessed art thou among women . * And when she saw him , she was troubled at his saying , and cast in her mind what manner of salutation this should be . * And the angel said unto her , Fear not , Mary : for thou hast found favour with God . * And , behold , thou shalt conceive in thy womb , and bring forth a son , and shalt call his name JESUS . * He shall be great , and shall be called the Son of the Highest : and the Lord God shall give unto him the throne of his father David : * And he shall reign over the house of Jacob for ever ; and of his kingdom there shall be no end . * Then said Mary unto the angel , How shall this be , seeing I know not a man ? * And the angel answered and said unto her , The Holy Ghost shall come upon thee , and the power of the Highest shall overshadow thee : therefore also that holy thing which shall be born of thee shall be called the Son of God . * And , behold , thy cousin Elisabeth , she hath also conceived a son in her old age : and this is the sixth month with her , who was called barren . * For with God nothing shall be impossible . * And Mary said , Behold the handmaid of the Lord ; be it unto me according to thy word . And the angel departed from her .
