Infancy Gospel of James — Mary's Birth
1 And, behold, an angel of the Lord stood by, saying: Anna, Anna, the Lord hath heard thy prayer, and thou shalt conceive, and shall bring forth; and thy seed shall be spoken of in all the world.
2 And Anna said: As the Lord my God liveth, if I beget either male or female, I will bring it as a gift to the Lord my God; and it shall minister to Him in holy things all the days of its life.
3 And, behold, two angels came, saying to her: Behold, Joachim thy husband is coming with his flocks.
4 For an angel of the Lord went down to him, saying: Joachim, Joachim, the Lord God hath heard thy prayer.
5 Go down hence; for, behold, thy wife Anna shall conceive.
6 And Joachim went down and called his shepherds, saying: Bring me hither ten she-lambs without spot or blemish, and they shall be for the Lord my God; and bring me twelve tender calves, and they shall be for the priests and the elders; and a hundred goats for all the people.
7 And, behold, Joachim came with his flocks; and Anna stood by the gate, and saw Joachim coming, and she ran and hung upon his neck, saying: Now I know that the Lord God hath blessed me exceedingly; for, behold the widow no longer a widow, and I the childless shall conceive.
8 And Joachim rested the first day in his house.
