Luke 1:51-63

51He hath shewed strength with his arm; He hath scattered the proud in the imagination of their heart.

52He hath put down princes from their thrones, And hath exalted them of low degree.

53The hungry he hath filled with good things; And the rich he hath sent empty away.

54He hath holpen Israel his servant, That he might remember mercy

55(As he spake unto our fathers) Toward Abraham and his seed for ever.

56And Mary abode with her about three months, and returned unto her house.

57Now Elisabeth’s time was fulfilled that she should be delivered; and she brought forth a son.

58And her neighbours and her kinsfolk heard that the Lord had magnified his mercy towards her; and they rejoiced with her.

59And it came to pass on the eighth day, that they came to circumcise the child; and they would have called him Zacharias, after the name of his father.

60And his mother answered and said, Not so; but he shall be called John.

61And they said unto her, There is none of thy kindred that is called by this name.

62And they made signs to his father, what he would have him called.

63And he asked for a writing tablet, and wrote, saying, His name is John. And they marveled all.
