The Road to ቤተ ልሔም/Bethlehem Told by Elizabeth Laird


And companies of angels and archangels, the Cherubim and Seraphim, bowed down and worshipped the Child and his mother. “This is the day that እግዚአብሔር [Igziabher/God] has made and blessed,” they said.


After them came ገብርኤል/Gabriel, with a bright and shining face. And he bowed down and worshipped. “It is as I told you,” he said. “This is the Child I spoke of when I came to you before. This is the one who will give strength to his people.”


And Salome picked the Baby up in her arms and said, “Happy am I to have seen this day, and happy are you, ማርያም /Mariyam/Mary, to be his mother. I will be your servant, and I will never leave you, and I will look after you till I die.”


And the angels appeared to herdsmen who were looking after their animals. And when they had heard the news, the herdsmen came and worshipped. “You are the Savior of the world, the Son of እግዚአብሔር/Igziabher/God,” they said, “Happy are we to see your glory.”


Then all the companies of angels and archangels sang, “Glory to እግዚአብሔር/Igziabher/God in the Heavens, and peace on earth to the children of men, with whom he is pleased.”


እግዚአብሔር/Igziabher/God is with us. ~ Matthew 1:23
