5Look the days come, says the Lord, and I will raise up to David a righteous branch: and a king shall reign, and shall be wise, and shall execute judgement and righteousness in the earth.

6In those days shall Juda be saved, and Israel shall dwell confidently: and this is the name that they shall call him: the Lord our righteous one.

7Therefore look the days to come, says the Lord, and they shall say no more: The Lord liveth, who brought up the children of Israel out of the land of Egypt:

8But the Lord liveth, who has brought out, and brought here the offspring of the people of Israel from the land of the north, and out of all the lands, to which I had cast them forth: and they shall dwell in their own land.

1A psalm on Solomon.

2Give to the king your judgment, OH God: and to the king's son your righteousness: To judge your people with righteousness, and your poor with judgment.

12For he shall deliver the poor from the mighty: and the needy that had no helper.

13He shall spare the poor and needy: and he shall save the souls of the poor.

18Blessed be the Lord, the God of Israel, who alone does wonderful things.

19And blessed be the name of his majesty forever: and the whole earth shall be satisfied with his majesty. So be it. So be it.

18Now the generation of Christ was in this wise. When as his mother Mary was espoused to Joseph, before they came together, she was found with child, of the Holy Ghost.

19Whereupon Joseph her husband, being a righteous man, and not willing publicly to expose her, was minded to put her away privately.

20But while he thought on these things, look the angel of the Lord appeared to him in his sleep, saying: Joseph, son of David, fear not to take to you Mary your wife, for that which is conceived in her, is of the Holy Ghost.

21And she shall bring forth a son: and you shall call his name JESUS. For he shall save his people from their sins.

22Now all this was done that it might be fulfilled which the Lord spoke by the prophet, saying:

23Look a virgin shall be with child, and bring forth a son, and they shall call his name Emmanuel, which being interpreted is, God with us.

24And Joseph rising up from sleep, did as the angel of the Lord had commanded him, and took to him his wife.

25And he knew her not till she brought forth her firstborn son: and he called his name JESUS.
