Luke 2:1-5 ▼

1 Now it came to pass, in those days, that there went forth a decree from Caesar Augustus, that all the inhabited earth should be enrolled.

2 (This enrolment first was made, when Quirinius was governor of Syria).

3 And all were going to be enrolled, each to his own city.

4 And Joseph also went up from Galilee, out of the city of Nazareth, into Judaea, to the city of David, which is called Bethlehem, because he was of the house and family of David;

5 to enrol himself with Mary his betrothed wife, being with child.
