Luke 1:18-20

18And Zacharias said to the angel, How shall I know this, for I am an old man, and my wife advanced in years?

19And the angel answering, said to him, I am Gabriel, who stand before 1God, and I have been sent to speak to thee, and to bring these glad tidings to thee;

20and behold, thou shalt be silent and not able to speak, till the day in which these things shall take place, because thou hast not believed my words, the which shall be fulfilled in their time.
