    25"Thus has the Lord done to me in the days in which he looked at me, to take away my reproach among men."

    26Now in the sixth month, the angel Gabriel was sent from God to a city of Galilee, named Nazareth,

    27to a virgin pledged to be married to a man whose name was Joseph, of the house of David. The virgin's name was Mary.
