1 Now it came to pass in those days, a decree went out from Caesar Augustus to enroll all the world.
2 This enrollment first occurred when Quirinius was governor of Syria.
3 And all went to be enrolled, each into his personal city.
4 And Joseph also went up from Galilee, out of the city of Nazareth, into Judea to the city of David, which is called Bethlehem, because he was of the house and patriarchy of David,
5 to enroll himself with Mary, the woman who was betrothed to him, being pregnant.
