1. Many people have attempted to write about the things that have taken place among us.
|
1. Forasmuch G1895 as many G4183 have taken in hand G2021 to set forth in order G392 a declaration G1335 of G4012 those things G4229 which are most surely believed G4135 among G1722 us G2254 ,
|
|
2. Reports of these things were handed down to us. There were people who saw these things for themselves from the beginning and then passed the word on.
|
2. Even as G2531 they delivered G3860 them unto us G2254 , which from the beginning were G1096 G575 G746 eyewitnesses G845 , and G2532 ministers G5257 of the G3588 word G3056 ;
|
|
3. I myself have carefully looked into everything from the beginning. So it seemed good also to me to write down an orderly report of exactly what happened. I am doing this for you, most excellent Theophilus.
|
3. It seemed good G1380 to me also G2504 , having had perfect G199 understanding G3877 of all things G3956 from the very first G509 , to write G1125 unto thee G4671 in order G2517 , most excellent G2903 Theophilus G2321 ,
|
|
4. I want you to know that the things you have been taught are true.
|
4. That G2443 thou mightest know G1921 the G3588 certainty G803 of those things G3056 , wherein G4012 G3739 thou hast been instructed G2727 .
|
|
5. Herod was king of Judea. During the time he was ruling, there was a priest named Zechariah. He belonged to a group of priests named after Abijah. His wife Elizabeth also came from the family line of Aaron.
|
5. There was G1096 in G1722 the G3588 days G2250 of Herod G2264 , the G3588 king G935 of Judea G2449 , a certain G5100 priest G2409 named G3686 Zacharias G2197 , of G1537 the course G2183 of Abijah G7 : and G2532 his G846 wife G1135 was of G1537 the G3588 daughters G2364 of Aaron G2 , and G2532 her G846 name G3686 was Elisabeth G1665 .
|
|
6. Both of them did what was right in God's eyes. They obeyed all the Lord's commandments and rules faithfully.
|
6. And G1161 they were G2258 both G297 righteous G1342 before G1799 God G2316 , walking G4198 in G1722 all G3956 the G3588 commandments G1785 and G2532 ordinances G1345 of the G3588 Lord G2962 blameless G273 .
|
|
7. But they had no children, because Elizabeth was not able to have any. And they were both very old.
|
7. And G2532 they had G2258 G846 no G3756 child G5043 , because that G2530 Elisabeth G1665 was G2258 barren G4723 , and G2532 they both G297 were G2258 now well stricken G4260 in G1722 years G2250 .
|
|
8. One day Zechariah's group was on duty. He was serving as a priest in God's temple.
|
8. And G1161 it came to pass G1096 , that while he G846 executed the priest's office G2407 before G1725 God G2316 in G1722 the G3588 order G5010 of his G848 course G2183 ,
|
|
9. He happened to be chosen, in the usual way, to go into the temple of the Lord. There he was supposed to burn incense.
|
9. According G2596 to the G3588 custom G1485 of the G3588 priest's office G2405 , his lot was G2975 to burn incense G2370 when he went G1525 into G1519 the G3588 temple G3485 of the G3588 Lord G2962 .
|
|
10. The time came for this to be done. All who had gathered to worship were praying outside.
|
10. And G2532 the G3588 whole G3956 multitude G4128 of the G3588 people G2992 were G2258 praying G4336 without G1854 at the G3588 time G5610 of incense G2368 .
|
|
11. Then an angel of the Lord appeared to Zechariah. The angel was standing at the right side of the incense altar.
|
11. And G1161 there appeared G3700 unto him G846 an angel G32 of the Lord G2962 standing G2476 on G1537 the right side G1188 of the G3588 altar G2379 of incense G2368 .
|
|
12. When Zechariah saw him, he was amazed and terrified.
|
12. And G2532 when Zacharias G2197 saw G1492 him, he was troubled G5015 , and G2532 fear G5401 fell G1968 upon G1909 him G846 .
|
|
13. But the angel said to him, "Do not be afraid, Zechariah. Your prayer has been heard. Your wife Elizabeth will have a child. It will be a boy, and you must name him John.
|
13. But G1161 the G3588 angel G32 said G2036 unto G4314 him G846 , Fear G5399 not G3361 , Zacharias G2197 : for G1360 thy G4675 prayer G1162 is heard G1522 ; and G2532 thy G4675 wife G1135 Elisabeth G1665 shall bear G1080 thee G4671 a son G5207 , and G2532 thou shalt call G2564 his G846 name G3686 John G2491 .
|
|
14. He will be a joy and delight to you. His birth will make many people very glad.
|
14. And G2532 thou G4671 shalt have G2071 joy G5479 and G2532 gladness G20 ; and G2532 many G4183 shall rejoice G5463 at G1909 his G846 birth G1083 .
|
|
15. He will be important in the Lord's eyes. "He must never use wine or other such drinks. He will be filled with the Holy Spirit from the time he is born.
|
15. For G1063 he shall be G2071 great G3173 in the sight G1799 of the G3588 Lord G2962 , and G2532 shall drink G4095 neither G3364 wine G3631 nor G2532 strong drink G4608 ; and G2532 he shall be filled G4130 with the Holy G40 Ghost G4151 , even G2089 from G1537 his G848 mother G3384 's womb G2836 .
|
|
16. He will bring many of Israel's people back to the Lord their God.
|
16. And G2532 many G4183 of the G3588 children G5207 of Israel G2474 shall he turn G1994 to G1909 the Lord G2962 their G846 God G2316 .
|
|
17. And he will prepare the way for the Lord. He will have the same spirit and power that Elijah had. He will teach parents how to love their children. He will also teach people who don't obey to be wise and do what is right. In this way, he will prepare a people who are ready for the Lord."
|
17. And G2532 he G846 shall go G4281 before G1799 him G846 in the spirit G4151 and G2532 power G1411 of Elijah G2243 , to turn G1994 the hearts G2588 of the fathers G3962 to G1909 the children G5043 , and G2532 the disobedient G545 to G1722 the wisdom G5428 of the just G1342 ; to make ready G2090 a people G2992 prepared G2680 for the Lord G2962 .
|
|
18. Zechariah asked the angel, "How can I be sure of this? I am an old man, and my wife is old too."
|
18. And G2532 Zacharias G2197 said G2036 unto G4314 the G3588 angel G32 , Whereby G2596 G5101 shall I know G1097 this G5124 ? for G1063 I G1473 am G1510 an old man G4246 and G2532 my G3450 wife G1135 well stricken G4260 in G1722 years G2250 .
|
|
19. The angel answered, "I am Gabriel. I serve God. I have been sent to speak to you and to tell you this good news.
|
19. And G2532 the G3588 angel G32 answering G611 said G2036 unto him G846 , I G1473 am G1510 Gabriel G1043 , that stand G3936 in the presence G1799 of God G2316 ; and G2532 am sent G649 to speak G2980 unto G4314 thee G4571 , and G2532 to show thee these glad tidings G2097 G4671 G5023 .
|
|
20. And now you will have to be silent. You will not be able to speak until after John is born. That's because you did not believe my words. They will come true when the time is right."
|
20. And G2532 , behold G2400 , thou shalt be G2071 dumb G4623 , and G2532 not G3361 able G1410 to speak G2980 , until G891 the G3739 day G2250 that these things G5023 shall be performed G1096 , because G473 thou G3739 believest G4100 not G3756 my G3450 words G3056 , which G3748 shall be fulfilled G4137 in G1519 their G848 season G2540 .
|
|
21. During that time, the people were waiting for Zechariah to come out. They wondered why he stayed in the temple so long.
|
21. And G2532 the G3588 people G2992 waited for G2258 G4328 Zacharias G2197 , and G2532 marveled G2296 that he G846 tarried so long G5549 in G1722 the G3588 temple G3485 .
|
|
22. When he came out, he could not speak to them. They realized he had seen a vision in the temple. They knew this because he kept motioning to them. He still could not speak.
|
22. And G1161 when he came out G1831 , he could G1410 not G3756 speak G2980 unto them G846 : and G2532 they perceived G1921 that G3754 he had seen G3708 a vision G3701 in G1722 the G3588 temple G3485 : for G2532 he G846 beckoned G2258 G1269 unto them G846 , and G2532 remained G1265 speechless G2974 .
|
|
23. When his time of service was over, he returned home.
|
23. And G2532 it came to pass G1096 , that , as soon as G5613 the G3588 days G2250 of his G846 ministration G3009 were accomplished G4130 , he departed G565 to G1519 his own G848 house G3624 .
|
|
24. After that, his wife Elizabeth became pregnant. She stayed at home for five months.
|
24. And G1161 after G3326 those G5025 days G2250 his G846 wife G1135 Elisabeth G1665 conceived G4815 , and G2532 hid G4032 herself G1438 five G4002 months G3376 , saying G3004 ,
|
|
25. "The Lord has done this for me," she said. "In these days, he has been kind to me. He has taken away my shame among the people."
|
25. Thus G3779 hath the G3588 Lord G2962 dealt G4160 with me G3427 in G1722 the G3588 days G2250 wherein G3739 he looked on G1896 me, to take away G851 my G3450 reproach G3681 among G1722 men G444 .
|
|
26. In the sixth month after Elizabeth had become pregnant, God sent the angel Gabriel to Nazareth, a town in Galilee.
|
26. And G1161 in G1722 the G3588 sixth G1623 month G3376 the G3588 angel G32 Gabriel G1043 was sent G649 from G5259 God G2316 unto G1519 a city G4172 of Galilee G1056 , named G3686 Nazareth G3478 ,
|
|
27. He was sent to a virgin. The girl was engaged to a man named Joseph. He came from the family line of David. The virgin's name was Mary.
|
27. To G4314 a virgin G3933 espoused G3423 to a man G435 whose G3739 name G3686 was Joseph G2501 , of G1537 the house G3624 of David G1138 ; and G2532 the G3588 virgin G3933 's name G3686 was Mary G3137 .
|
|
28. The angel greeted her and said, "The Lord has given you special favor. He is with you."
|
28. And G2532 the G3588 angel G32 came in G1525 unto G4314 her G846 , and said G2036 , Hail G5463 , thou that art highly favored G5487 , the G3588 Lord G2962 is with G3326 thee G4675 : blessed G2127 art thou G4771 among G1722 women G1135 .
|
|
29. Mary was very upset because of his words. She wondered what kind of greeting this could be.
|
29. And G1161 when she G3588 saw G1492 him, she was troubled G1298 at G1909 his G846 saying G3056 , and G2532 cast in her mind G1260 what manner G4217 of salutation G783 this G3778 should be G1498 .
|
|
30. But the angel said to her, "Do not be afraid, Mary. God is very pleased with you.
|
30. And G2532 the G3588 angel G32 said G2036 unto her G846 , Fear G5399 not G3361 , Mary G3137 : for G1063 thou hast found G2147 favor G5485 with G3844 God G2316 .
|
|
31. You will become pregnant and give birth to a son. You must name him Jesus.
|
31. And G2532 , behold G2400 , thou shalt conceive G4815 in G1722 thy womb G1064 , and G2532 bring forth G5088 a son G5207 , and G2532 shalt call G2564 his G846 name G3686 JESUS G2424 .
|
|
32. He will be great and will be called the Son of the Most High God. The Lord God will make him a king like his father David of long ago.
|
32. He G3778 shall be G2071 great G3173 , and G2532 shall be called G2564 the Son G5207 of the Highest G5310 : and G2532 the Lord G2962 God G2316 shall give G1325 unto him G846 the G3588 throne G2362 of his G846 father G3962 David G1138 :
|
|
33. He will rule forever over his people, who came from Jacob's family. His kingdom will never end."
|
33. And G2532 he shall reign G936 over G1909 the G3588 house G3624 of Jacob G2384 forever G1519 G165 ; and G2532 of his G846 kingdom G932 there shall be G2071 no G3756 end G5056 .
|
|
34. "How can this happen?" Mary asked the angel. "I am a virgin."
|
34. Then G1161 said G2036 Mary G3137 unto G4314 the G3588 angel G32 , How G4459 shall this G5124 be G2071 , seeing G1893 I know G1097 not G3756 a man G435 ?
|
|
35. The angel answered, "The Holy Spirit will come to you. The power of the Most High God will cover you. So the holy one that is born will be called the Son of God.
|
35. And G2532 the G3588 angel G32 answered G611 and said G2036 unto her G846 , The Holy G40 Ghost G4151 shall come G1904 upon G1909 thee G4571 , and G2532 the power G1411 of the Highest G5310 shall overshadow G1982 thee G4671 : therefore G1352 also G2532 that holy thing G40 which shall be born G1080 of G1537 thee G4675 shall be called G2564 the Son G5207 of God G2316 .
|
|
36. Your relative Elizabeth is old. And even she is going to have a child. People thought she could not have children. But she has been pregnant for six months now.
|
36. And G2532 , behold G2400 , thy G4675 cousin G4773 Elisabeth G1665 , she G846 hath also G2532 conceived G4815 a son G5207 in G1722 her G848 old age G1094 : and G2532 this G3778 is G2076 the sixth G1623 month G3376 with her G846 , who was called G2564 barren G4723 .
|
|
37. Nothing is impossible with God."
|
37. For G3754 with G3844 God G2316 nothing G3956 G4487 G3756 shall be impossible G101 .
|
|
38. "I serve the Lord," Mary answered. "May it happen to me just as you said it would." Then the angel left her.
|
38. And G1161 Mary G3137 said G2036 , Behold G2400 the G3588 handmaid G1399 of the Lord G2962 ; be G1096 it unto me G3427 according G2596 to thy G4675 word G4487 . And G2532 the G3588 angel G32 departed G565 from G575 her G846 .
|
|
39. At that time Mary got ready and hurried to a town in Judea's hill country.
|
39. And G1161 Mary G3137 arose G450 in G1722 those G5025 days G2250 , and went G4198 into G1519 the G3588 hill country G3714 with G3326 haste G4710 , into G1519 a city G4172 of Judah G2448 ;
|
|
40. There she entered Zechariah's home and greeted Elizabeth.
|
40. And G2532 entered G1525 into G1519 the G3588 house G3624 of Zacharias G2197 , and G2532 saluted G782 Elisabeth G1665 .
|
|
41. When Elizabeth heard Mary's greeting, the baby inside her jumped. And Elizabeth was filled with the Holy Spirit.
|
41. And G2532 it came to pass G1096 , that, when G5613 Elisabeth G1665 heard G191 the G3588 salutation G783 of Mary G3137 , the G3588 babe G1025 leaped G4640 in G1722 her G846 womb G2836 ; and G2532 Elisabeth G1665 was filled G4130 with the Holy G40 Ghost G4151 :
|
|
42. In a loud voice she called out, "God has blessed you more than other women. And blessed is the child you will have!
|
42. And G2532 she spake out G400 with a loud G3173 voice G5456 , and G2532 said G2036 , Blessed G2127 art thou G4771 among G1722 women G1135 , and G2532 blessed G2127 is the G3588 fruit G2590 of thy G4675 womb G2836 .
|
|
43. But why is God so kind to me? Why has the mother of my Lord come to me?
|
43. And G2532 whence G4159 is this G5124 to me G3427 , that G2443 the G3588 mother G3384 of my G3450 Lord G2962 should come G2064 to G4314 me G3165 ?
|
|
44. As soon as I heard the sound of your voice, the baby inside me jumped for joy.
|
44. For G1063 , lo G2400 , as soon as G5613 the G3588 voice G5456 of thy G4675 salutation G783 sounded G1096 in G1519 mine G3450 ears G3775 , the G3588 babe G1025 leaped G4640 in G1722 my G3450 womb G2836 for G1722 joy G20 .
|
|
45. You are a woman God has blessed. You have believed that what the Lord has said to you will be done!"
|
45. And G2532 blessed G3107 is she that believed G4100 for G3754 there shall be G2071 a performance G5050 of those things which were told G2980 her G846 from G3844 the Lord G2962 .
|
|
46. Mary said, "My soul gives glory to the Lord.
|
46. And G2532 Mary G3137 said G2036 , My G3450 soul G5590 doth magnify G3170 the G3588 Lord G2962 ,
|
|
47. My spirit delights in God my Savior.
|
47. And G2532 my G3450 spirit G4151 hath rejoiced G21 in G1909 God G2316 my G3450 Savior G4990 .
|
|
48. He has taken note of me even though I am not important. From now on all people will call me blessed.
|
48. For G3754 he hath regarded G1914 the G3588 low estate G5014 of his G848 handmaiden G1399 : for G1063 , behold G2400 , from G575 henceforth G3568 all G3956 generations G1074 shall call me blessed G3106 G3165 .
|
|
49. The Mighty One has done great things for me. His name is holy.
|
49. For G3754 he that is mighty G1415 hath done G4160 to me G3427 great things G3167 ; and G2532 holy G40 is his G846 name G3686 .
|
|
50. He shows his mercy to those who have respect for him, from parent to child down through the years.
|
50. And G2532 his G846 mercy G1656 is on them that fear G5399 him G846 from G1519 generation G1074 to generation G1074 .
|
|
51. He has done mighty things with his arm. He has scattered those who are proud in their deepest thoughts.
|
51. He hath showed G4160 strength G2904 with G1722 his G848 arm G1023 ; he hath scattered G1287 the proud G5244 in the imagination G1271 of their G846 hearts G2588 .
|
|
52. He has brought down rulers from their thrones. But he has lifted up people who are not important.
|
52. He hath put down G2507 the mighty G1413 from G575 their seats G2362 , and G2532 exalted G5312 them of low degree G5011 .
|
|
53. He has filled those who are hungry with good things. But he has sent those who are rich away empty.
|
53. He hath filled G1705 the hungry G3983 with good things G18 ; and G2532 the rich G4147 he hath sent empty away G1821 G2756 .
|
|
54. He has helped the people of Israel, who serve him. He has always remembered to be kind
|
54. He hath helped G482 his G848 servant G3816 Israel G2474 , in remembrance G3415 of his mercy G1656 ;
|
|
55. to Abraham and his children down through the years. He has done it just as he said to our people of long ago."
|
55. As G2531 he spake G2980 to G4314 our G2257 fathers G3962 , to Abraham G11 , and G2532 to his G846 seed G4690 forever G1519 G165 .
|
|
56. Mary stayed with Elizabeth about three months. Then she returned home.
|
56. And G1161 Mary G3137 abode G3306 with G4862 her G846 about G5616 three G5140 months G3376 , and G2532 returned G5290 to G1519 her own G848 house G3624 .
|
|
57. The time came for Elizabeth to have her baby. She gave birth to a son.
|
57. Now G1161 Elisabeth G1665 's full time G5550 came G4130 that she G846 should be delivered G5088 ; and G2532 she brought forth G1080 a son G5207 .
|
|
58. Her neighbors and relatives heard that the Lord had been very kind to her. They shared her joy.
|
58. And G2532 her G848 neighbors G4040 and G2532 her cousins G4773 heard G191 how G3754 the Lord G2962 had showed great mercy G3170 G848 G1656 upon G3326 her G846 ; and G2532 they rejoiced with G4796 her G846 .
|
|
59. On the eighth day, they came to have the child circumcised. They were going to name him Zechariah, like his father.
|
59. And G2532 it came to pass G1096 , that on G1722 the G3588 eighth G3590 day G2250 they came G2064 to circumcise G4059 the G3588 child G3813 ; and G2532 they called G2564 him G846 Zacharias G2197 , after G1909 the G3588 name G3686 of his G846 father G3962 .
|
|
