Luke 1:35-80
35And the angelG32 answeringG611 saidG3004 to her, [The] HolyG40 SpiritG4151 shall comeG1904 upon thee, and powerG1411 of [the] HighestG5310 overshadowG1982 thee, wherefore the holyG40 thing alsoG2532 which shall be bornG1080 shall be calledG2564 SonG5207 of 1GodG2316. 36And beholdG2400, ElizabethG1665, thy kinswoman, she alsoG2532 has conceived a sonG5207 in her old age, and this isG1510 the sixthG1623 monthG3376 to her that wasG1510 calledG2564 barrenG4723: 37for nothing shall be impossibleG101 with 2GodG2316. 38And MaryG3137 saidG3004, BeholdG2400 the bondmaid of [the] LordG2962; be it to me accordingG2596 to thy word. And the angelG32 departedG565 from her. 39And MaryG3137, risingG450 up in those daysG2250, wentG4198 into the hillG3714 countryG3714 with haste, to a cityG4172 of JudahG2455, 40and enteredG1525 into the houseG3624 of Zacharias, and saluted ElizabethG1665. 41And it cameG1096 to passG1096, as ElizabethG1665 heardG191 the salutation of MaryG3137, the babe leapedG4640 in her wombG2836; and ElizabethG1665 was filledG4130 with [the] HolyG40 SpiritG4151, 42and cried out with a loudG3173 voice and saidG3004, BlessedG2127 [art] thou amongst womenG1135, and blessedG2127 the fruitG2590 of thy wombG2836. 43And whence [is] this to me, that the motherG3384 of my LordG2962 should comeG2064 to me? 44For beholdG2400, as the voiceG5456 of thy salutation sounded in my earsG3775, the babe leapedG4640 with joy in my wombG2836. 45And blessed [isG1510] she that has believedG4100, for there shall beG1510 a fulfilment of the things spokenG2980 to her from [the] LordG2962. 46And MaryG3137 saidG3004, My soulG5590 magnifies the LordG2962, 47and my spiritG4151 has rejoicedG21 in 3GodG2316 my Saviour. 48For he has looked upon the low estate of his bondmaid; for beholdG2400, from henceforth all generationsG1074 shall call me blessed. 49For the MightyG1415 OneG3588 has done to me greatG3173 things, and holyG40 [is] his nameG3686; 50and his mercyG1656 [is] to generationsG1074 and generationsG1074 to them that fearG5399 him. 51He has wrought strengthG2904 with his armG1023; he has scatteredG1287 haughty [ones] in the thought of their heartG2588. 52He has put down rulers from thronesG2362, and exaltedG5312 the lowly. 53He has filled the hungryG3983 with goodG18 thingsG18, and sent awayG1821 the richG4147 emptyG2756. 54He has helped IsraelG2474 his servantG3816, in order to rememberG3403 mercyG1656, 55(as he spokeG2980 to our fathersG3962,) to AbrahamG11 and to his seedG4690 for ever. 56And MaryG3137 abode with her about threeG5140 monthsG3376, and returnedG5290 to her houseG3624. 57But the timeG5550 was fulfilled for ElizabethG1665 that she should bring forthG5088, and she gave birthG5088 to a sonG5207. 58And her neighbours and kinsfolk heardG191 that [the] LordG2962 had magnifiedG3170 his mercyG1656 with her, and they rejoiced with her. 59And it cameG2064 to passG1096 on the eighthG3590 dayG2250 they cameG2064 to circumciseG4059 the childG3813, and they calledG2564 it after the nameG3686 of his fatherG3962, Zacharias. 60And his motherG3384 answeringG611 saidG3004, No; but he shall be calledG2564 JohnG2491. 61And they saidG3004 to her, There isG1510 no oneG3762 among thy kinsfolk who isG1510 calledG2564 by this nameG3686. 62And they made signs to his fatherG3962 as to what he might wishG2309 it to be calledG2564. 63And having askedG154 for a writing-table, he wroteG1125 sayingG3004, JohnG2491 isG1510 his nameG3686. And they all wonderedG2296. 64And his mouthG4750 was openedG455 immediatelyG3916, and his tongueG1100, and he spake, blessingG2127 4GodG2316. 65And fearG5401 cameG1096 upon all who dwelt round about them; and in the wholeG3650 hill-country of Judaea all these thingsG3778 were the subject of conversation. 66And all who heardG191 them laidG5087 them up in their heartG2588, sayingG3004, What then will this childG3813 beG1510? And [the] Lord's handG5495 wasG1510 with him. 67And Zacharias his fatherG3962 was filledG4130 with [the] HolyG40 SpiritG4151, and prophesiedG4395, sayingG3004, 68Blessed be [the] LordG2962 the 5GodG2316 of IsraelG2474, because he has visited and wrought redemptionG3085 for his peopleG2992, 69and raisedG1453 up a hornG2768 of deliverance for us in the houseG3624 of DavidG1138 his servantG3816; 70as he spokeG2980 by [the] mouthG4750 of his holyG40 prophetsG4396, who have been since the world began; 71deliverance from our enemiesG2190 and out of the handG5495 of all who hateG3404 us; 72to fulfil mercyG1656 with our fathersG3962 and rememberG3403 his holyG40 covenantG1242, 73[the] oathG3727 which he sworeG3660 to AbrahamG11 our fatherG3962, 74to give us, that, saved out of the handG5495 of our enemiesG2190, we should serveG3000 him without fearG870 75in piety and righteousnessG1343 before him all our daysG2250. 76And thou, childG3813, shalt be calledG2564 [the] prophetG4396 of [the] HighestG5310; for thou shalt goG4313 before the faceG4383 of [the] LordG2962 to makeG2090 readyG2090 his waysG3598; 77to giveG1325 knowledgeG1108 of deliverance to his peopleG2992 by [the] remission of their sinsG266 78on accountG1223 of [the] bowels of mercyG1656 of our 6GodG2316; wherein [the] dayspring from on highG5311 has visited us, 79to shine upon them who were sittingG2521 in darknessG4655 and in [the] shadowG4639 of deathG2288, to guide our feetG4228 into [the] wayG3598 of peaceG1515. 80— And the childG3813 grewG837 and wasG1510 strengthenedG2901 in spiritG4151; and he wasG1510 in the deserts until the dayG2250 of his shewing to IsraelG2474.
