    25 “This is what the Lord has done for me at the time when he has been gracious to me, to take away my disgrace among people.”

    27 to a virgin engaged to a man whose name was Joseph, a descendant of David, and the virgin’s name was Mary.

    28 The angel came to her and said,“Greetings, favored one, the Lord is with you!”

    29 But she was greatly troubled by his words and began to wonder about the meaning of this greeting.

    31 Listen: You will become pregnant and give birth to a son, and you will name him Jesus.

    32 He will be great, and will be called the Son of the Most High, and the Lord God will give him the throne of his father David.

    37 For nothing will be impossible with God.”
