SHEPHERDS IN THE FIELD!

LUKE 2: 8-18

8 And there were in the same country 

shepherds abiding in the field, keeping

 watch over their flock by night.

9 And, lo, the angel of the Lord came

 upon them, and the glory of the Lord 

shone round about them: and they 

were sore afraid.

10 And the angel said unto them, Fear 

not: for, behold, I bring you good 

tidings of great joy, which shall be to 

all people.

11 For unto you is born this day in the 

city of David a Saviour, which is Christ 

the Lord.

12 And this shall be a sign unto you; 

Ye shall find the babe wrapped in 

swaddling clothes, lying in a manger.

13 And suddenly there was with the

angel a multitude of the heavenly host 

praising God, and saying,

14 Glory to God in the highest, and on 

earth peace, goodwill toward men.

15 And it came to pass, as the angels 

were gone away from them into 

heaven, the shepherds said one to 

another, Let us now go even unto 

Bethlehem, and see this thing which is

come to pass, which the Lord hath 

made known unto us.

16 And they came with haste, and found

 Mary, and Joseph, and the babe lying 

in a manger.

17 And when they had seen it, they 

made known abroad the saying which

was told them concerning this child.

18 And all they that heard it wondered 

at those things which were told them

by the shepherds.
