10. The angel said to them, “Don’t be afraid. I have some very good news for you—news that will make everyone happy.
11. Today your Savior was born in David’s town. He is the Messiah, the Lord.
12. This is how you will know him: You will find a baby wrapped in pieces of cloth and lying in a feeding box.”
13. Then a huge army of angels from heaven joined the first angel, and they were all praising God, saying,
14. “Praise God in heaven, and on earth let there be peace to the people who please him.”
15. The angels left the shepherds and went back to heaven. The shepherds said to each other, “Let’s go to Bethlehem and see this great event the Lord has told us about.”
16. So they went running and found Mary and Joseph. And there was the baby, lying in the feeding box.
17. When they saw the baby, they told what the angels said about this child.
