Lukas 2,6

4 Også Josef dro opp fra Galilea, fra byen Nasaret, til Judea, til Davids by, som heter Betlehem, fordi han var av Davids hus og ætt,

5 for å la seg innskrive sammen med Maria, sin trolovede, som var med barn.

Mens de var der, kom tiden da hun skulle føde.

7 Og hun fødte sin førstefødte sønn, svøpte ham i tøy og la ham i en krybbe, fordi det ikke var plass til dem i herberget.

8 I samme område var det noen hyrder som var ute på marken og holdt nattevakt over flokken sin.

Here the Bible tells a story about someone else. Ask yourself what it can say to us today. Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
