Luke 1:51-63

51He hath shown strength with his arm; he hath scattered the proud in the imagination of their hearts. 52He hath put down the mighty from their seats, and exalted them of low degree. 53He hath filled the hungry with good things; and the rich he hath sent away empty. 54He hath helped his servant Israel, in remembrance of his mercy; 55As he spoke to our fathers, to Abraham, and to his seed for ever. 56And Mary abode with her about three months, and returned to her own house.

57Now Elisabeth’s full time came that she should be delivered; and she brought forth a son. 58And her neighbours and her cousins heard that the Lord had shown great mercy upon her; and they rejoiced with her. 59And it came to pass, that on the eighth day they came to circumcise the child; and they 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 to her, There is none of thy kindred that is called by this name. 62And they made signs to his father, how he would have him called. 63And he asked for a writing tablet, and wrote, saying, His name is John. And they all marvelled.
