Behold
thou shalt conceive in thy womb, and shalt bring forth a son; and
thou shalt call his name Jesus. He shall be great, and shall be
called the Son of the most High; and the Lord God shall give unto him
the throne of David his father; and he shall reign in the house of
Jacob for ever. And of his kingdom there shall be no end.

Saint Gabriel the Archangel to The Blessed Virgin Mary from
Luke 1: 31 - 33
