Luke 1:51-63

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.
