Luke 2:5-7

EasyEnglish Bible

⁵ Joseph took Mary with him so that the Romans could count them. She went because she had promised to marry him. She was pregnant.

⁶ While they were in Bethlehem, the time came for her baby to be born. ⁷ This was her first baby, and it was a boy. She put cloths around him. Then she put him in an animal's food box. She did this because the rooms for visitors were full of people.^[a]
