Instantly Zechariah could speak again, and he began praising God.

Suddenly, the angel was joined by a vast host of others— the armies of heaven— praising God and saying,“ Glory to God in highest heaven, and peace on earth to those with whom God is pleased.”

The shepherds went back to their flocks, glorifying and praising God for all they had heard and seen. It was just as the angel had told them.

Then he took the children in his arms and placed his hands on their heads and blessed them.

Give thanks to the Lord and proclaim his greatness. Let the whole world know what he has done.Sing to him; yes, sing his praises. Tell everyone about his wonderful deeds.Exult in his holy name; rejoice, you who worship the Lord.

Mary responded,“ Oh, how my soul praises the Lord.

So rejoice in the Lord and be glad, all you who obey him! Shout for joy, all you whose hearts are pure!Let the godly sing for joy to the Lord; it is fitting for the pure to praise him.

Then he put a little child among them. Taking the child in his arms, he said to them,

O Israel, praise the Lord! O priests— descendants of Aaron— praise the Lord!O Levites, praise the Lord! All you who fear the Lord, praise the Lord!
