Luke 1:57-80
57NowG1161 Elisabeth’sG1665 fullG4130 timeG3588G5550 cameG4130 that sheG846 should be deliveredG5088; andG2532 she brought forthG1080 a sonG5207.
58AndG2532 herG846 neighboursG4040 andG2532 herG846 cousinsG4773 heardG191 howG3754 the LordG2962 had shewed greatG3170 mercyG3588G1656 uponG3326 herG846; andG2532 they rejoicedG4796 with herG846.
59AndG2532 it came to pass, thatG1096 onG1722 the eighthG3590 dayG2250 they cameG2064 to circumciseG4059 the childG3588G3813; andG2532 they calledG2564 himG846 ZachariasG2197, afterG1909 the nameG3588G3686 ofG3588G3962 hisG846 fatherG3588G3962.
60AndG2532 hisG846 motherG3588G3384 answeredG611 and saidG3004, NotG3780 so; butG235 he shall be calledG2564 JohnG2491.
61AndG2532 they saidG3004 untoG4314 herG846, There isG1510 noneG3762 ofG1722 thyG4771 kindredG3588G4772 thatG3739 is calledG2564 byG3588G3686 thisG3778 nameG3588G3686.
62AndG1161 they made signsG1770 toG3588G3962 hisG846 fatherG3588G3962, howG5101 he would haveG2309 himG846 calledG2564.
63AndG2532 he askedG154 for a writing tabletG4093, and wroteG1125, sayingG3004, HisG846 nameG3588G3686 isG1510 JohnG2491. AndG2532 they marvelledG2296 allG3956.
64AndG1161 hisG846 mouthG3588G4750 was openedG455 immediatelyG3916, andG2532 hisG846 tongueG3588G1100 loosed, andG2532 he spakeG2980, and praisedG2127 GodG3588G2316.
65AndG2532 fearG5401 cameG1096 onG1909 allG3956 that dwelt round aboutG4039 themG846: andG2532 allG3956 theseG3778 sayingsG3588G4487 were noised abroadG1255 throughoutG1722 allG3650 the hill countryG3714 of JudæaG3588G2449.
66AndG2532 allG3956 they that heardG191 them laidG5087 them upG5087 inG1722 theirG846 heartsG3588G2588, sayingG3004, WhatG5101 mannerG687 of childG3588G3813 shallG1510 thisG3778 beG1510! AndG2532 the handG5495 of the LordG2962 wasG1510 withG3326 himG846.
67AndG2532 hisG846 fatherG3588G3962 ZachariasG2197 was filledG4130 with theG4151 HolyG40 GhostG4151, andG2532 prophesiedG4395, sayingG3004,
68BlessedG2128 be the LordG2962 GodG3588G2316 of Israel; forG3754 he hath visitedG1980 andG2532 redeemedG3085 hisG846 peopleG3588G2992,
69AndG2532 hath raised upG1453 an hornG2768 of salvationG4991 for usG1473 inG1722 the houseG3588G3624 ofG3588G3816 hisG846 servantG3588G3816 DavidG1138;
70AsG2531 he spakeG2980 byG1223 the mouthG4750 ofG4396 hisG846 holyG40 prophetsG4396, whichG3588 have been sinceG575 the world beganG165:
71That we should be savedG4991 fromG1537 ourG1473 enemiesG2190, andG2532 fromG1537 the handG5495 of allG3956 that hateG3404 usG1473;
72To performG4160 the mercyG1656 promised toG3326 ourG1473 fathersG3588G3962, andG2532 to rememberG3403 hisG846 holyG40 covenantG1242;
73The oathG3727 whichG3739 he swareG3660 toG4314 ourG1473 fatherG3588G3962 AbrahamG11,
74That he would grantG1325 unto usG1473, that we being deliveredG4506 out ofG1537 the handG5495 ofG2190 ourG1473 enemiesG2190 might serveG3000 himG846 without fearG870,
75InG1722 holinessG3742 andG2532 righteousnessG1343 beforeG1799 himG846, allG3956 the daysG3588G2250 ofG3588G2222 ourG1473 lifeG3588G2222.
76AndG2532 thouG4771, childG3813, shalt be calledG2564 the prophetG4396 of the HighestG5310: forG1063 thou shalt goG4313 beforeG4253 the faceG4383 of the LordG2962 to prepareG2090 hisG846 waysG3598;
77To giveG1325 knowledgeG1108 of salvationG4991 untoG3588G2992 hisG846 peopleG3588G2992 byG1722 the remissionG859 ofG266 theirG846 sinsG266,
78ThroughG1223 theG1656 tenderG4698 mercyG1656 ofG2316 ourG1473 GodG2316; wherebyG1722 the dayspringG395 fromG1537 on highG5311 hath visitedG1980 usG1473,
79To give lightG2014 to themG3588 that sitG2521 inG1722 darknessG4655 andG2532 in the shadowG4639 of deathG2288, to guideG2720 ourG1473 feetG3588G4228 intoG1519 the wayG3598 of peaceG1515.
80AndG1161 the childG3813 grewG837, andG2532 waxed strongG2901 in spiritG4151, andG2532 wasG1510 inG1722 the desertsG2048 tillG2193 the dayG2250 ofG323 hisG846 shewingG323 untoG4314 IsraelG2474.
