5There wasG1096 inG1722 the daysG2250 of HerodG2264, the kingG935 of JudaeaG2449, a certainG5100 priestG2409 namedG3686 ZachariasG2197, ofG1537 the courseG2183 of AbijahG7: andG2532 hisG846 wifeG1135 was ofG1537 the daughtersG2364 of AaronG2, andG2532 herG846 nameG3686 was ElisabethG1665. 6AndG1161 they wereG2258 bothG297 righteousG1342 beforeG1799 GodG2316, walkingG4198 inG1722 allG3956 the commandmentsG1785 andG2532 ordinancesG1345 of the LordG2962 blamelessG273. 7AndG2532 theyG846 hadG2258 noG3756 childG5043, becauseG2530 ElisabethG1665 wasG2258 barrenG4723, andG2532 theyG846 bothG297 wereG2258 well advancedG4260 inG1722 yearsG2250. 8AndG1161 it came to passG1096, that whileG1722 heG846 executed the priest’s officeG2407 beforeG1725 GodG2316 inG1722 the orderG5010 of hisG846 courseG2183, 9AccordingG2596 to the customG1485 of the priest’s officeG2405, his lotG2975 was to burn incenseG2370 when he wentG1525 intoG1519 the templeG3485 of the LordG2962. 10AndG2532 the wholeG3956 multitudeG4128 of the peopleG2992 wereG2258 prayingG4336 outsideG1854 at the timeG5610 of incenseG2368. 11AndG1161 there appearedG3700 to himG846 an angelG32 of the LordG2962 standingG2476 onG1537 the right sideG1188 of the altarG2379 of incenseG2368. 12AndG2532 when ZachariasG2197 sawG1492 him, he was troubledG5015, andG2532 fearG5401 fellG1968 uponG1909 himG846. 13ButG1161 the angelG32 saidG2036 toG4314 himG846, FearG5399 notG3361, ZachariasG2197: forG1360 thyG4675 prayerG1162 is heardG1522; andG2532 thyG4675 wifeG1135 ElisabethG1665 shall bearG1080 theeG4671 a sonG5207, andG2532 thou shalt callG2564 hisG846 nameG3686 JohnG2491. 14AndG2532 thouG4671 shalt haveG2071 joyG5479 andG2532 gladnessG20; andG2532 manyG4183 shall rejoiceG5463 atG1909 hisG846 birthG1083. 15ForG1063 he shall beG2071 greatG3173 in the sightG1799 of the LordG2962, andG2532 shall drinkG4095 neitherG3364 wineG3631 norG2532 strong drinkG4608; andG2532 he shall be filledG4130 with the HolyG40 SpiritG4151, evenG2089 fromG1537 hisG846 mother’sG3384 wombG2836. 16AndG2532 manyG4183 of the childrenG5207 of IsraelG2474 shall he turnG1994 toG1909 the LordG2962 theirG846 GodG2316. 17AndG2532 heG846 shall goG4281 beforeG1799 himG846 inG1722 the spiritG4151 andG2532 powerG1411 of ElijahG2243, to turnG1994 the heartsG2588 of the fathersG3962 toG1909 the childrenG5043, andG2532 the disobedientG545 toG1722 the wisdomG5428 of the justG1342; to make readyG2090 a peopleG2992 preparedG2680 for the LordG2962.1 18AndG2532 ZachariasG2197 saidG2036 toG4314 the angelG32, HowG2596G5101 shall I knowG1097 thisG5124? forG1063 IG1473 amG1510 an old manG4246, andG2532 myG3450 wifeG1135 well advancedG4260 inG1722 yearsG2250G846. 19AndG2532 the angelG32 answeringG611 saidG2036 to himG846, IG1473 amG1510 GabrielG1043, who standG3936 in the presenceG1799 of GodG2316; andG2532 am sentG649 to speakG2980 toG4314 theeG4571, andG2532 to showG2097 theeG4671 theseG5023 glad tidingsG2097. 20AndG2532, beholdG2400, thouG2071 shalt be dumbG4623, andG2532 notG3361 ableG1410 to speakG2980, untilG891 the dayG2250 thatG3739 these thingsG5023 shall be performedG1096, becauseG473G3739 thou believestG4100 notG3756 myG3450 wordsG3056, whichG3748 shall be fulfilledG4137 inG1519 theirG846 seasonG2540. 21AndG2532 the peopleG2992 waitedG2258G4328 for ZachariasG2197, andG2532 marvelledG2296 thatG1722 heG846 tarried so longG5549 inG1722 the templeG3485. 22AndG1161 when he came outG1831, he couldG1410 notG3756 speakG2980 to themG846: andG2532 they perceivedG1921 thatG3754 he had seenG3708 a visionG3701 inG1722 the templeG3485: forG2532 heG846 made signsG2258G1269 to themG846, andG2532 remainedG1265 speechlessG2974. 23AndG2532 it came to passG1096, that, as soon asG5613 the daysG2250 of hisG846 ministrationG3009 were accomplishedG4130, he departedG565 toG1519 his ownG846 houseG3624.
