Behold, at the
going down
of the sun
there was
no darkness;
and the people began
to be astonished
because there was
no darkness
when the night came.
And they began to know
that the Son of God
must shortly appear;
yea, in fine, all the people
were so exceedingly astonished
that they fell to the earth.
For they knew that
the prophets had
testified of these things
for many years,
and that the sign
which had been given
was already at hand.
And it came to pass
that there was
no darkness
in all that night
and they knew that
it was the day that
the Lord should be born,
because of the sign
which had been given.
And it had come to pass,
yea, all things, every whit,
according to the words
of the prophets.
And it came to pass also
that a new star did appear,
according to the word.
