THE FIRST JOYFUL MYSTERY
 
Our Father...

In the sixth month, the angel Gabriel was sent from God to a town of
Galilee called Nazareth, to a virgin betrothed to a man named Joseph,
of the house of David, and the virgin's name was Mary.
(Luke 1:26,27)  
Hail Mary...

And coming to her, he said, "Hail, favored one! The Lord is with you."  
(Luke 1:28)  
Hail Mary...

But she was greatly troubled at what was said and pondered what sort
of greeting this might be.  (Luke 1:29)  
Hail Mary...

Then the angel said to her, "Do not be afraid, Mary, for you have
found favor with God.  (Luke 1:30)  
Hail Mary...

Behold, you will conceive in your womb and bear a son, and you shall
name him Jesus.  (Luke 1:31)  
Hail Mary...

He will be great and will be called Son of the Most High, and the Lord
God will give him the throne of David his father, and he will rule over
the house of Jacob forever, and of his kingdom there will be no end."  
(Luke 1:32,33)  
Hail Mary...

But Mary said to the angel, "How can this be, since I have no relations
with a man?"  (Luke 1:34)  
Hail Mary...

And the angel said to her in reply, "The holy Spirit will come upon you,
and the power of the Most High will overshadow you. Therefore the
child to be born will be called holy, the Son of God.  (Luke 1:35)
Hail Mary...

And behold, Elizabeth, your relative, has also conceived a son in her
old age, and this is the sixth month for her who was called barren; for
nothing will be impossible for God."
(Luke 1:36,37)  
Hail Mary...

Mary said, "Behold, I am the handmaid of the Lord. May it be done to
me according to your word." Then the angel departed from her.
(Luke 1:38)  
Hail Mary...
