Luke 1:13-22

13But the angelG32 saidG3004 to him, “1Do not be afraidG5399, ZachariasG2197, for your petitionG1162 has been heardG1522, and your wifeG1135 ElizabethG1665 will bearG1080 you a sonG5207, and 2you will 3giveG2564 him the nameG3686 JohnG2491. 14You will have joyG5479 and gladnessG20, and manyG4183 will rejoiceG5463 at his birthG1078. 15For he will be greatG3173 in the sightG1799 of the LordG2962; and he will 4drinkG4095 noG3756G3361 wineG3631 orG2532 liquorG4608, and he will be filledG4092 with the HolyG40 SpiritG4151 5while yetG2089 in his mother’sG3384 wombG2836. 16And he will 6turnG1994 manyG4183 of the sonsG5207 of IsraelG2474 backG1994 to the LordG2962 their GodG2316. 17It is he who will 7goG4281 as a forerunner beforeG1799 Him in the spiritG4151 and powerG1411 of 8ElijahG2243, 9to turnG1994 the heartsG2588 of the fathersG3962 backG1994 to the childrenG5043, and the disobedientG545 to the attitudeG5428 of the righteousG1342, so as to 10makeG2090 readyG2090 a peopleG2992 preparedG2680 for the LordG2962.”

18ZachariasG2197 saidG3004 to the angelG32, “HowG2596G5101 will I knowG1097 thisG3778 for certain? For 11I amG1510 an oldG4246 manG4246 and my wifeG1135 is advancedG4260 in 12yearsG2250.” 19The angelG32 answeredG611 and saidG3004 to him, “I amG1510 13GabrielG1043, who 1415standsG3936 in the presenceG1799 of GodG2316, and I have been sentG649 to speakG2980 to you and to bringG2097 you thisG3778 goodG2097 newsG2097. 20And beholdG2400, you shall be silentG4623 and unableG3361G1410 to speakG2980 untilG891 the dayG2250 whenG3739 theseG3778 thingsG3778 takeG1096 placeG1096, becauseG473G3739 you did not believeG4100 my wordsG3056, whichG3748 will be fulfilledG4137 in their properG2540 timeG2540.”

21The peopleG2992 were waitingG4328 for ZachariasG2197, and were wonderingG2296 at his delayG5549 in the templeG3485. 22But when he cameG1831 out, he was unableG3756G1410 to speakG2980 to them; and they realizedG1921 that he had seenG3708 a visionG3701 in the templeG3485; and he 16kept 17makingG1269 signsG1269 to them, and remainedG1265 muteG2974.
