8And there were shepherds living out in the fields
nearby, keeping watch over their flocks at night. 9An angel of
the Lord appeared to them, and the glory of the Lord shone
around them, and they were terrified. 10But the angel said to
them, "Do not be afraid. I bring you good news of great joy
that will be for all the people. 11Today in the town of David a
Savior has been born to you; he is Christ the Lord. 12This will
be a sign to you: You will find a baby wrapped in cloths and
lying in a manger." 13Suddenly a great company of the heavenly
host appeared with the angel, praising God and saying, 14"Glory
to God in the highest, and on earth peace to men on whom his
favor rests."
Luke 2:8-14 (NIV)
