They hurried to the village and found Mary and Joseph. And there was the baby, lying in the manger. After seeing him, the shepherds told everyone what had happened and what the angel had said to them about this child.

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.
