Nlt Parallel Bible with Kjvp for Luke 1 45

1 Many people have set out to write accounts about the events that have been fulfilled among us.

2 They used the eyewitness reports circulating among us from the early disciples.

3 Having carefully investigated everything from the beginning, I also have decided to write a careful account for you, most honorable Theophilus,

4 so you can be certain of the truth of everything you were taught.

5 When Herod was king of Judea, there was a Jewish priest named Zechariah. He was a member of the priestly order of Abijah, and his wife, Elizabeth, was also from the priestly line of Aaron.

6 Zechariah and Elizabeth were righteous in God's eyes, careful to obey all of the Lord's commandments and regulations.

7 They had no children because Elizabeth was unable to conceive, and they were both very old.

8 One day Zechariah was serving God in the Temple, for his order was on duty that week.

9 As was the custom of the priests, he was chosen by lot to enter the sanctuary of the Lord and burn incense.

10 While the incense was being burned, a great crowd stood outside, praying.

11 While Zechariah was in the sanctuary, an angel of the Lord appeared to him, standing to the right of the incense altar.

12 Zechariah was shaken and overwhelmed with fear when he saw him.

13 But the angel said, "Don't be afraid, Zechariah! God has heard your prayer. Your wife, Elizabeth, will give you a son, and you are to name him John.

14 You will have great joy and gladness, and many will rejoice at his birth,

15 for he will be great in the eyes of the Lord. He must never touch wine or other alcoholic drinks. He will be filled with the Holy Spirit, even before his birth.

16 And he will turn many Israelites to the Lord their God.

17 He will be a man with the spirit and power of Elijah. He will prepare the people for the coming of the Lord. He will turn the hearts of the fathers to their children, and he will cause those who are rebellious to accept the wisdom of the godly."

18 Zechariah said to the angel, "How can I be sure this will happen? I'm an old man now, and my wife is also well along in years."

19 Then the angel said, "I am Gabriel! I stand in the very presence of God. It was he who sent me to bring you this good news!

20 But now, since you didn't believe what I said, you will be silent and unable to speak until the child is born. For my words will certainly be fulfilled at the proper time."

21 Meanwhile, the people were waiting for Zechariah to come out of the sanctuary, wondering why he was taking so long.

22 When he finally did come out, he couldn't speak to them. Then they realized from his gestures and his silence that he must have seen a vision in the sanctuary.

23 When Zechariah's week of service in the Temple was over, he returned home.

24 Soon afterward his wife, Elizabeth, became pregnant and went into seclusion for five months.

25 "How kind the Lord is!" she exclaimed. "He has taken away my disgrace of having no children."

26 In the sixth month of Elizabeth's pregnancy, God sent the angel Gabriel to Nazareth, a village in Galilee,

27 to a virgin named Mary. She was engaged to be married to a man named Joseph, a descendant of King David.

28 Gabriel appeared to her and said, "Greetings, favored woman! The Lord is with you! "

29 Confused and disturbed, Mary tried to think what the angel could mean.

30 "Don't be afraid, Mary," the angel told her, "for you have found favor with God!

31 You will conceive and give birth to a son, and you will name him Jesus.

32 He will be very great and will be called the Son of the Most High. The Lord God will give him the throne of his ancestor David.

33 And he will reign over Israel forever; his Kingdom will never end!"

34 Mary asked the angel, "But how can this happen? I am a virgin."

35 The angel replied, "The Holy Spirit will come upon you, and the power of the Most High will overshadow you. So the baby to be born will be holy, and he will be called the Son of God.

36 What's more, your relative Elizabeth has become pregnant in her old age! People used to say she was barren, but she's now in her sixth month.

37 For nothing is impossible with God. "

38 Mary responded, "I am the Lord's servant. May everything you have said about me come true." And then the angel left her.

39 A few days later Mary hurried to the hill country of Judea, to the town

40 where Zechariah lived. She entered the house and greeted Elizabeth.

41 At the sound of Mary's greeting, Elizabeth's child leaped within her, and Elizabeth was filled with the Holy Spirit.

42 Elizabeth gave a glad cry and exclaimed to Mary, "God has blessed you above all women, and your child is blessed.

43 Why am I so honored, that the mother of my Lord should visit me?

44 When I heard your greeting, the baby in my womb jumped for joy.

45 You are blessed because you believed that the Lord would do what he said."

46 Mary responded, "Oh, how my soul praises the Lord.

47 How my spirit rejoices in God my Savior!

48 For he took notice of his lowly servant girl, and from now on all generations will call me blessed.

49 For the Mighty One is holy, and he has done great things for me.

50 He shows mercy from generation to generation to all who fear him.

51 His mighty arm has done tremendous things! He has scattered the proud and haughty ones.

52 He has brought down princes from their thrones and exalted the humble.

53 He has filled the hungry with good things and sent the rich away with empty hands.

54 He has helped his servant Israel and remembered to be merciful.

55 For he made this promise to our ancestors, to Abraham and his children forever."

56 Mary stayed with Elizabeth about three months and then went back to her own home.

57 When it was time for Elizabeth's baby to be born, she gave birth to a son.

58 And when her neighbors and relatives heard that the Lord had been very merciful to her, everyone rejoiced with her.

59 When the baby was eight days old, they all came for the circumcision ceremony. They wanted to name him Zechariah, after his father.

60 But Elizabeth said, "No! His name is John!"

61 "What?" they exclaimed. "There is no one in all your family by that name."

62 So they used gestures to ask the baby's father what he wanted to name him.

63 He motioned for a writing tablet, and to everyone's surprise he wrote, "His name is John."

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

65 Awe fell upon the whole neighborhood, and the news of what had happened spread throughout the Judean hills.

66 Everyone who heard about it reflected on these events and asked, "What will this child turn out to be?" For the hand of the Lord was surely upon him in a special way.

67 Then his father, Zechariah, was filled with the Holy Spirit and gave this prophecy:

68 "Praise the Lord, the God of Israel, because he has visited and redeemed his people.

69 He has sent us a mighty Savior from the royal line of his servant David,

70 just as he promised through his holy prophets long ago.

71 Now we will be saved from our enemies and from all who hate us.

72 He has been merciful to our ancestors by remembering his sacred covenant--

73 the covenant he swore with an oath to our ancestor Abraham.

74 We have been rescued from our enemies so we can serve God without fear,

75 in holiness and righteousness for as long as we live.

76 "And you, my little son, will be called the prophet of the Most High, because you will prepare the way for the Lord.

77 You will tell his people how to find salvation through forgiveness of their sins.

78 Because of God's tender mercy, the morning light from heaven is about to break upon us,

79 to give light to those who sit in darkness and in the shadow of death, and to guide us to the path of peace."

80 John grew up and became strong in spirit. And he lived in the wilderness until he began his public ministry to Israel.

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 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 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 That ^G2443 thou mightest know ^G1921 the ^G3588 certainty ^G803 of those things, ^G3056 wherein ^G4012 ^G3739 thou hast been instructed. ^G2727

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 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 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 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 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 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 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 And ^G2532 when Zacharias ^G2197 saw ^G1492 him, he was troubled, ^G5015 and ^G2532 fear ^G5401 fell ^G1968 upon ^G1909 him. ^G846

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 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 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's ^G3384 womb. ^G2836

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 ^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 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 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 ^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 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 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 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 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 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 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 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's ^G3933 name ^G3686 was Mary. ^G3137

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 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 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 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 ^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 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 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 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 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 For ^G3754 with ^G3844 God ^G2316 nothing ^G3956 ^G4487 ^G3756 shall be impossible. ^G101

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 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 And ^G2532 entered ^G1525 into ^G1519 the ^G3588 house ^G3624 of Zacharias, ^G2197 and ^G2532 saluted ^G782 Elisabeth. ^G1665

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 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 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 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 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 And ^G2532 Mary ^G3137 said, ^G2036 My ^G3450 soul ^G5590 doth magnify ^G3170 the ^G3588 Lord, ^G2962

47 And ^G2532 my ^G3450 spirit ^G4151 hath rejoiced ^G21 in ^G1909 God ^G2316 my ^G3450 Savior. ^G4990

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 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 And ^G2532 his ^G846 mercy ^G1656 is on them that fear ^G5399 him ^G846 from ^G1519 generation ^G1074 to generation. ^G1074

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 hath put down ^G2507 the mighty ^G1413 from ^G575 their seats, ^G2362 and ^G2532 exalted ^G5312 them of low degree. ^G5011

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 hath helped ^G482 his ^G848 servant ^G3816 Israel, ^G2474 in remembrance ^G3415 of his mercy; ^G1656

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 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 Now ^G1161 Elisabeth's ^G1665 full time ^G5550 came ^G4130 that she ^G846 should be delivered; ^G5088 and ^G2532 she brought forth ^G1080 a son. ^G5207

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 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

60 And ^G2532 his ^G846 mother ^G3384 answered ^G611 and said, ^G2036 Not ^G3780 so ; but ^G235 he shall be called ^G2564 John. ^G2491

61 And ^G2532 they said ^G2036 unto ^G4314 her, ^G846 There is ^G2076 none ^G3762 of ^G1722 thy ^G4675 kindred ^G4772 that ^G3739 is called ^G2564 by this ^G5129 name. ^G3686

62 And ^G2532 they made signs ^G1770 to his ^G846 father, ^G3962 how ^G5101 he would have ^G2309 ^G302 him ^G846 called. ^G2564

63 And ^G2532 he asked ^G154 for a writing table, ^G4093 and wrote, ^G1125 saying, ^G3004 His ^G846 name ^G3686 is ^G2076 John. ^G2491 And ^G2532 they marveled ^G2296 all. ^G3956

64 And ^G1161 his ^G846 mouth ^G4750 was opened ^G455 immediately, ^G3916 and ^G2532 his ^G846 tongue ^G1100 loosed, and ^G2532 he spake, ^G2980 and praised ^G2127 God. ^G2316

65 And ^G2532 fear ^G5401 came ^G1096 on ^G1909 all ^G3956 that dwelt round about ^G4039 them: ^G846 and ^G2532 all ^G3956 these ^G5023 sayings ^G4487 were noised abroad ^G1255 throughout ^G1722 all ^G3650 the ^G3588 hill country ^G3714 of Judea. ^G2449

66 And ^G2532 all ^G3956 they that heard ^G191 them laid them up ^G5087 in ^G1722 their ^G848 hearts, ^G2588 saying, ^G3004 What manner ^G5101 of ^G686 child ^G3813 shall this ^G5124 be ^G2071 ! And ^G2532 the hand ^G5495 of the Lord ^G2962 was ^G2258 with ^G3326 him. ^G846

67 And ^G2532 his ^G846 father ^G3962 Zacharias ^G2197 was filled ^G4130 with the Holy ^G40 Ghost, ^G4151 and ^G2532 prophesied, ^G4395 saying, ^G3004

68 Blessed ^G2128 be the Lord ^G2962 God ^G2316 of Israel; ^G2474 for ^G3754 he hath visited ^G1980 and ^G2532 redeemed ^G4160 ^G3085 his ^G848 people, ^G2992

69 And ^G2532 hath raised up ^G1453 a horn ^G2768 of salvation ^G4991 for us ^G2254 in ^G1722 the ^G3588 house ^G3624 of his ^G848 servant ^G3816 David; ^G1138

70 As ^G2531 he spake ^G2980 by ^G1223 the mouth ^G4750 of his ^G848 holy ^G40 prophets, ^G4396 which ^G3588 have been since the world began ^G575 ^G165 :

71 That we should be saved ^G4991 from ^G1537 our ^G2257 enemies, ^G2190 and ^G2532 from ^G1537 the hand ^G5495 of all ^G3956 that hate ^G3404 us; ^G2248

72 To perform ^G4160 the mercy ^G1656 promised to ^G3326 our ^G2257 fathers, ^G3962 and ^G2532 to remember ^G3415 his ^G848 holy ^G40 covenant; ^G1242

73 The oath ^G3727 which ^G3739 he swore ^G3660 to ^G4314 our ^G2257 father ^G3962 Abraham, ^G11

74 That he would grant ^G1325 unto us, ^G2254 that we being delivered ^G4506 out of ^G1537 the hand ^G5495 of our ^G2257 enemies ^G2190 might serve ^G3000 him ^G846 without fear, ^G870

75 In ^G1722 holiness ^G3742 and ^G2532 righteousness ^G1343 before ^G1799 him, ^G846 all ^G3956 the ^G3588 days ^G2250 of our ^G2257 life. ^G2222

76 And ^G2532 thou, ^G4771 child, ^G3813 shalt be called ^G2564 the prophet ^G4396 of the Highest: ^G5310 for ^G1063 thou shalt go ^G4313 before ^G4253 the face ^G4383 of the Lord ^G2962 to prepare ^G2090 his ^G846 ways; ^G3598

77 To give ^G1325 knowledge ^G1108 of salvation ^G4991 unto his ^G846 people ^G2992 by ^G1722 the remission ^G859 of their ^G846 sins, ^G266

78 Through ^G1223 the tender mercy ^G4698 ^G1656 of our ^G2257 God; ^G2316 whereby ^G1722 ^G3739 the dayspring ^G395 from ^G1537 on high ^G5311 hath visited ^G1980 us, ^G2248

79 To give light ^G2014 to them that sit ^G2521 in ^G1722 darkness ^G4655 and ^G2532 in the shadow ^G4639 of death, ^G2288 to guide ^G2720 our ^G2257 feet ^G4228 into ^G1519 the way ^G3598 of peace. ^G1515

80 And ^G1161 the ^G3588 child ^G3813 grew, ^G837 and ^G2532 waxed strong ^G2901 in spirit, ^G4151 and ^G2532 was ^G2258 in ^G1722 the ^G3588 deserts ^G2048 till ^G2193 the day ^G2250 of his ^G846 showing ^G323 unto ^G4314 Israel. ^G2474
