7:10And the Lord spoke again to Achaz, saying:

11Ask you a sign of the Lord your God either to the depth of hell, or to the height above.

12And Achaz said: I will not ask, and I will not tempt the Lord.

13And he said: Hear you therefore, O house of David: Is it a small thing for you to be heavy to men, that you are heavy to my God also?

14Therefore the Lord himself shall give you a sign. Look a virgin shall conceive, and bear a son, and his name shall be called Emmanuel.

8:10Take guidance together, and it shall be defeated: speak a word, and it shall not be done: because God is with us.

40:7Sacrifice and oblation you did not desire; but you have pierced ears for me. Burnt offering and sin offering you did not require$1

8then said I, Look I come. In the head of the book it is written of me

9that I should do your will$1 O my God, I have desired it, and your law in the midst of my heart.

10I have told your righteousness in a great church, lo, I will not restrain my lips$1 O Lord, you know it.

11I have not hid your righteousness within my heart$1 I have told your truth and your salvation. I have not concealed your mercy and your truth from a great council.

10:4For it is impossible that with the blood of oxen and goats sin should be taken away.

5Therefore when he comes into the world, he says: Sacrifice and oblation you wouldest not: but a body you have fitted to me:

6Holocausts for sin did not please you.

7Then said I: Look I come: in the head of the book it is written of me: that I should do your will, O God.

8In saying before, Sacrifices, and oblations, and holocausts for sin you wouldest not, neither are they pleasing to you, which are offered according to the law.

9Then said I: Look, I come to do your will, O God: he takes away the first, that he may establish that which followeth.

10In the which will, we are sanctified by the oblation of the body of Jesus Christ once.

1:26And in the sixth month, the angel Gabriel was sent from God into a city of Galilee, called Nazareth,

27To a virgin espoused to a man whose name was Joseph, of the house of David; and the virgin's name was Mary.

28And the angel being come in, said to her: Hail, full of grace, the Lord is with you: blessed art you among women.

29Who having heard, was troubled at his saying, and thought with herself what manner of salutation this should be.

30And the angel said to her: Fear not, Mary, for you have found grace with God.

31Look you shall conceive in your womb, and shall bring forth a son; and you shall call his name Jesus.

32He shall be great, and shall be called the Son of the most High; and the Lord God shall give to him the throne of David his father; and he shall reign in the house of Jacob forever.

33And of his kingdom there shall be no end.

34And Mary said to the angel: How shall this be done, because I know not man?

35And the angel answering, said to her: The Holy Ghost shall come upon you, and the power of the most High shall overshadow you. And therefore also the Holy which shall be born of you shall be called the Son of God.

36And look your cousin Elizabeth, she also has conceived a son in her old age; and this is the sixth month with her that is called barren:

37Because no word shall be impossible with God.

38And Mary said: Look the servant of the Lord; be it done to me according to your word. And the angel departed from her.
