23 And it came to be, as soon as the days of his service were completed, he went away to his house.
24 And after those days his wife Elisheḇa conceived. And she hid herself five months, saying,
25 “יהוה has done this for me, in the days when He looked upon me, to take away my reproach among men.”
26 And in the sixth month the messenger Gaḇri’ĕl was sent by Elohim to a city of Galil named Natsareth,
27 to a maiden engaged to a man whose name was Yosĕph, of the house of Dawiḏ. And the maiden’s name was Miryam.
28 And the messenger, coming to her, said, “Greetings, favoured one, the Master is with you. Blessed are you among women!”
29 But she was greatly disturbed at his word, and wondered what kind of greeting this was.
