English Standard Version

²⁸ And he came to her and said, “Greetings, ^(A)O favored one, ^(B)the Lord is with you!”^{[a] 29} But ^(C)she was greatly troubled at the saying, and tried to discern what sort of greeting this might be. ³⁰ And the angel said to her, “Do not be afraid, Mary, for ^(D)you have found favor with God. ³¹ And behold, ^(E)you will conceive in your womb and bear a son, and ^(F)you shall call his name Jesus. ³² He will be great and will be called the Son of ^(G)the Most High. And the Lord God ^(H)will give to him the throne of ^(I)his father David, ³³ and he will reign over the house of Jacob ^(J)forever, and of his kingdom there will be no end.”

³⁴ And Mary said to the angel, “How will this be, since I am a virgin?”^[b]
