9. And look, a messenger of יהוה stood before them, and the esteem of יהוה shone around them, and they were greatly afraid.
10. And the messenger said to them, “Do not be afraid, for look, I bring you good news of great joy which shall be to all people.
11. “Because there was born to you today in the city of Dawiḏ a Saviour, who is Messiah, the Master.
12. “And this is the sign to you: You shall find a baby wrapped up, lying in a feeding trough.”
13. And suddenly there was with the messenger a crowd of the heavenly host praising Elohim and saying,
14. “Esteem to Elohim in the highest, and on earth peace among men with whom He is pleased!”
15. And it came to be, when the messengers had gone away from them into the heaven, that the shepherds said to each other, “Indeed, let us go to Bĕyth Leḥem and see this matter that has taken place, which the Master has made known to us.”
16. And they came in haste and found Miryam and Yosĕph, and the baby lying in a feeding trough.
17. And having seen, they made known the matter which was spoken to them concerning the child.
18. And all those who heard marvelled at what the shepherds said to them.
