3 E iban todos para ser empadronados, cada uno á su ciudad.

4 Y subió José de Galilea, de la ciudad de Nazaret, á Judea, á la ciudad de David, que se llama Bethlehem, por cuanto era de la casa y familia de David;

5 Para ser empadronado con María su mujer, desposada con él, la cual estaba en cinta.
