The angel said to him, “I am Gabriel. I stand in the presence of God, and I have been sent to speak to you and to tell you this good news.
And I heard a man’s voice from the Ulai calling, “Gabriel, tell this man the meaning of the vision.”
“See that you do not despise one of these little ones. For I tell you that their angels in heaven always see the face of my Father in heaven.
And now you will be silent and not able to speak until the day this happens, because you did not believe my words, which will come true at their appointed time.”
In the sixth month of Elizabeth’s pregnancy, God sent the angel Gabriel to Nazareth, a town in Galilee,
But the angel said to them, “Do not be afraid. I bring you good news that will cause great joy for all the people.
Be always on the watch, and pray that you may be able to escape all that is about to happen, and that you may be able to stand before the Son of Man.”
Therefore, since we have a great high priest who has ascended into heaven, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold firmly to the faith we profess.
