Luke 2:6

And so it was, that, while they were there, the days were accomplished that she should be delivered.

And {G1161} so it was {G1096}, that, while {G1722} they {G846} were {G1511} there {G1563}, the days {G2250} were accomplished {G4130} that she {G846} should be delivered {G5088}.

While they were there, the time came for her to give birth;

While they were there, the time came for her Child to be born.

And it came to pass, while they were there, the days were fulfilled that she should be delivered.
