ForasmuchG1895 as manyG4183 have taken in handG2021 to set forth in orderG392 a declarationG1335 ofG4012 those thingsG4229 which are most surely believedG4135 amongG1722 usG2254,
EvenG2531 as they deliveredG3860 them unto usG2254, whichG3588 fromG575 the beginningG746 wereG1096 eyewitnessesG845, andG2532 ministersG5257 of the wordG3056;
It seemedG1380 good to me alsoG2504, having had perfectG199 understandingG3877 of all thingsG3956 from the very firstG509, to writeG1125 unto theeG4671 in orderG2517, most excellentG2903 TheophilusG2321,
ThatG2443 thou mightest knowG1921 the certaintyG803 ofG4012 those thingsG3056, whereinG3739 thou hast been instructedG2727.
There wasG1096 inG1722 the daysG2250 of HerodG2264, the kingG935 of JudaeaG2449, a certainG5100 priestG2409 namedG3686 ZachariasG2197, ofG1537 the courseG2183 of AbiaG7: andG2532 hisG846 wifeG1135 was ofG1537 the daughtersG2364 of AaronG2, andG2532 herG846 nameG3686 was ElisabethG1665.
AndG1161 they wereG2258 bothG297 righteousG1342 beforeG1799 GodG2316, walkingG4198 inG1722 allG3956 the commandmentsG1785 andG2532 ordinancesG1345 of the LordG2962 blamelessG273.
AndG2532 theyG846 hadG2258 noG3756 childG5043, becauseG2530 that ElisabethG1665 wasG2258 barrenG4723, andG2532 theyG846 bothG297 wereG2258 now well strickenG4260 inG1722 yearsG2250.
AndG1161 it came to passG1096, that whileG1722 heG846 executed the priest's officeG2407 beforeG1725 GodG2316 inG1722 the orderG5010 of hisG846 courseG2183,
AccordingG2596 to the customG1485 of the priest's officeG2405, his lotG2975 was to burn incenseG2370 when he wentG1525 intoG1519 the templeG3485 of the LordG2962.
AndG2532 the wholeG3956 multitudeG4128 of the peopleG2992 wereG2258 prayingG4336 withoutG1854 at the timeG5610 of incenseG2368.
AndG1161 there appearedG3700 unto himG846 an angelG32 of the LordG2962 standingG2476 onG1537 the right sideG1188 of the altarG2379 of incenseG2368.
AndG2532 when ZachariasG2197 sawG1492 him, he was troubledG5015, andG2532 fearG5401 fellG1968 uponG1909 himG846.
ButG1161 the angelG32 saidG2036 untoG4314 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.
AndG2532 thouG4671 shalt haveG2071 joyG5479 andG2532 gladnessG20; andG2532 manyG4183 shall rejoiceG5463 atG1909 hisG846 birthG1083.
ForG1063 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 GhostG4151, evenG2089 fromG1537 hisG846 mother'sG3384 wombG2836.
AndG2532 manyG4183 of the childrenG5207 of IsraelG2474 shall he turnG1994 toG1909 the LordG2962 theirG846 GodG2316.
AndG2532 heG846 shall goG4281 beforeG1799 himG846 inG1722 the spiritG4151 andG2532 powerG1411 of EliasG2243, 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. {to the wisdom: or, by the wisdom}
AndG2532 ZachariasG2197 saidG2036 untoG4314 the angelG32, WherebyG2596+G5101 shall I knowG1097 thisG5124? forG1063 IG1473 amG1510 an old manG4246, andG2532 myG3450 wifeG1135 well strickenG4260 inG1722 yearsG2250+G846.
AndG2532 the angelG32 answeringG611 saidG2036 unto himG846, IG1473 amG1510 GabrielG1043, that standG3936 in the presenceG1799 of GodG2316; andG2532 am sentG649 to speakG2980 untoG4314 theeG4571, andG2532 to shewG2097 theeG4671 theseG5023 glad tidingsG2097.
AndG2532, beholdG2400, thouG2071 shalt be dumbG4623, andG2532 notG3361 ableG1410 to speakG2980, untilG891 the dayG2250 thatG3739 these thingsG5023 shall be performedG1096, becauseG473+G3739 thou believestG4100 notG3756 myG3450 wordsG3056, whichG3748 shall be fulfilledG4137 inG1519 theirG846 seasonG2540.
AndG2532 the peopleG2992 waitedG2258+G4328 for ZachariasG2197, andG2532 marvelledG2296 thatG1722 heG846 tarried so longG5549 inG1722 the templeG3485.
AndG1161 when he came outG1831, he couldG1410 notG3756 speakG2980 unto themG846: andG2532 they perceivedG1921 thatG3754 he had seenG3708 a visionG3701 inG1722 the templeG3485: forG2532 heG846 beckonedG2258+G1269 unto themG846, andG2532 remainedG1265 speechlessG2974.
AndG2532 it came to passG1096, that, as soon asG5613 the daysG2250 of hisG846 ministrationG3009 were accomplishedG4130, he departedG565 toG1519 his ownG846 houseG3624.
AndG1161 afterG3326 thoseG5025 daysG2250 hisG846 wifeG1135 ElisabethG1665 conceivedG4815, andG2532 hidG4032 herselfG1438 fiveG4002 monthsG3376, sayingG3004,
ThusG3779 hathG4160 the LordG2962 dealtG4160 with meG3427 inG1722 the daysG2250 whereinG3739 he looked onG1896 me, to take awayG851 myG3450 reproachG3681 amongG1722 menG444.
AndG1161 inG1722 the sixthG1623 monthG3376 the angelG32 GabrielG1043 was sentG649 fromG5259 GodG2316 untoG1519 a cityG4172 of GalileeG1056, namedG3739+G3686 NazarethG3478,
ToG4314 a virginG3933 espousedG3423 to a manG435 whoseG3739 nameG3686 was JosephG2501, ofG1537 the houseG3624 of DavidG1138; andG2532 the virgin'sG3933 nameG3686 was MaryG3137.
AndG2532 the angelG32 came inG1525 untoG4314 herG846, and saidG2036, HailG5463, thou that art highly favouredG5487, the LordG2962 is withG3326 theeG4675: blessedG2127 art thouG4771 amongG1722 womenG1135. {highly…: or, graciously accepted, or, of much grace}
AndG1161 when she sawG1492 him, she was troubledG1298 atG1909 hisG846 sayingG3056, andG2532 cast in her mindG1260 what mannerG4217 of salutationG783 thisG3778 should beG1498.
AndG2532 the angelG32 saidG2036 unto herG846, FearG5399 notG3361, MaryG3137: forG1063 thou hast foundG2147 favourG5485 withG3844 GodG2316.
AndG2532, beholdG2400, thou shalt conceiveG4815 inG1722 thy wombG1064, andG2532 bring forthG5088 a sonG5207, andG2532 shalt callG2564 hisG846 nameG3686 JESUSG2424.
HeG3778 shall beG2071 greatG3173, andG2532 shall be calledG2564 the SonG5207 of the HighestG5310: andG2532 the LordG2962 GodG2316 shall giveG1325 unto himG846 the throneG2362 of hisG846 fatherG3962 DavidG1138:
AndG2532 he shall reignG936 overG1909 the houseG3624 of JacobG2384 forG1519 everG165; andG2532 of hisG846 kingdomG932 there shall beG2071 noG3756 endG5056.
ThenG1161 saidG2036 MaryG3137 untoG4314 the angelG32, HowG4459 shallG2071 thisG5124 beG2071, seeingG1893 I knowG1097 notG3756 a manG435?
AndG2532 the angelG32 answeredG611 and saidG2036 unto herG846, The HolyG40 GhostG4151 shall comeG1904 uponG1909 theeG4571, andG2532 the powerG1411 of the HighestG5310 shall overshadowG1982 theeG4671: thereforeG1352 alsoG2532 that holy thingG40 which shall be bornG1080 ofG1537 theeG4675 shall be calledG2564 the SonG5207 of GodG2316.
AndG2532, beholdG2400, thyG4675 cousinG4773 ElisabethG1665, sheG846 hathG4815 alsoG2532 conceivedG4815 a sonG5207 inG1722 herG846 old ageG1094: andG2532 thisG3778 isG2076 the sixthG1623 monthG3376 with herG846, whoG3588 was calledG2564 barrenG4723.
ForG3754 withG3844 GodG2316 nothingG3756+G3956+G4487 shall be impossibleG101.
AndG1161 MaryG3137 saidG2036, BeholdG2400 the handmaidG1399 of the LordG2962; be itG1096 unto meG3427 accordingG2596 to thyG4675 wordG4487. AndG2532 the angelG32 departedG565 fromG575 herG846.
AndG1161 MaryG3137 aroseG450 inG1722 thoseG5025 daysG2250, and wentG4198 intoG1519 the hill countryG3714 withG3326 hasteG4710, intoG1519 a cityG4172 of JudaG2448;
AndG2532 enteredG1525 intoG1519 the houseG3624 of ZachariasG2197, andG2532 salutedG782 ElisabethG1665.
AndG2532 it came to passG1096, that, whenG5613 ElisabethG1665 heardG191 the salutationG783 of MaryG3137, the babeG1025 leapedG4640 inG1722 herG846 wombG2836; andG2532 ElisabethG1665 was filledG4130 with the HolyG40 GhostG4151:
AndG2532 she spake outG400 with a loudG3173 voiceG5456, andG2532 saidG2036, BlessedG2127 art thouG4771 amongG1722 womenG1135, andG2532 blessedG2127 is the fruitG2590 of thyG4675 wombG2836.
AndG2532 whenceG4159 is thisG5124 to meG3427, thatG2443 the motherG3384 of myG3450 LordG2962 should comeG2064 toG4314 meG3165?
ForG1063, loG2400, as soon asG5613 the voiceG5456 of thyG4675 salutationG783 soundedG1096 inG1519 mineG3450 earsG3775, the babeG1025 leapedG4640 inG1722 myG3450 wombG2836 forG1722 joyG20.
AndG2532 blessedG3107 is she that believedG4100: forG3754 there shall beG2071 a performanceG5050 of those things which were toldG2980 herG846 fromG3844 the LordG2962. {that…: or, which believed that there}
AndG2532 MaryG3137 saidG2036, MyG3450 soulG5590 doth magnifyG3170 the LordG2962,
AndG2532 myG3450 spiritG4151 hath rejoicedG21 inG1909 GodG2316 myG3450 SaviourG4990.
ForG3754 he hath regardedG1914+G1909 the low estateG5014 of hisG846 handmaidenG1399: forG1063, beholdG2400, fromG575 henceforthG3568 allG3956 generationsG1074 shall callG3106 meG3165 blessedG3106.
ForG3754 he that is mightyG1415 hath doneG4160 to meG3427 great thingsG3167; andG2532 holyG40 is hisG846 nameG3686.
AndG2532 hisG846 mercyG1656 is on them that fearG5399 himG846 fromG1519 generationG1074 to generationG1074.
He hath shewedG4160 strengthG2904 withG1722 hisG846 armG1023; he hath scatteredG1287 the proudG5244 in the imaginationG1271 of theirG846 heartsG2588.
He hath put downG2507 the mightyG1413 fromG575 their seatsG2362, andG2532 exaltedG5312 them of low degreeG5011.
He hath filledG1705 the hungryG3983 with good thingsG18; andG2532 the richG4147 he hath sentG1821 emptyG2756 awayG1821.
He hath holpenG482 hisG846 servantG3816 IsraelG2474, in remembranceG3415 of his mercyG1656;
AsG2531 he spakeG2980 toG4314 ourG2257 fathersG3962, to AbrahamG11, andG2532 to hisG846 seedG4690 forG1519 everG165.
AndG1161 MaryG3137 abodeG3306 withG4862 herG846 aboutG5616 threeG5140 monthsG3376, andG2532 returnedG5290 toG1519 her ownG846 houseG3624.
NowG1161 Elisabeth'sG1665 fullG4130 timeG5550 cameG4130 that sheG846 should be deliveredG5088; andG2532 she brought forthG1080 a sonG5207.
AndG2532 her neighboursG4040 andG2532 herG846 cousinsG4773 heardG191 howG3754 the LordG2962 had shewed greatG3170 mercyG1656+G846 uponG3326 herG846; andG2532 they rejoicedG4796 with herG846.
AndG2532 it came to passG1096, that onG1722 the eighthG3590 dayG2250 they cameG2064 to circumciseG4059 the childG3813; andG2532 they calledG2564 himG846 ZachariasG2197, afterG1909 the nameG3686 of hisG846 fatherG3962.
AndG2532 hisG846 motherG3384 answeredG611 and saidG2036, NotG3780 so; butG235 he shall be calledG2564 JohnG2491.
AndG2532 they saidG2036 untoG4314 herG846+G3754, There isG2076 noneG3762 ofG1722 thyG4675 kindredG4772 thatG3739 is calledG2564 by thisG5129 nameG3686.
AndG1161 they made signsG1770 to hisG846 fatherG3962, howG5101+G302 he would haveG2309 himG846 calledG2564.
AndG2532 he asked forG154 a writing tableG4093, and wroteG1125, sayingG3004, HisG846 nameG3686 isG2076 JohnG2491. AndG2532 they marvelledG2296 allG3956.
AndG1161 hisG846 mouthG4750 was openedG455 immediatelyG3916, andG2532 hisG846 tongueG1100 loosed, andG2532 he spakeG2980, and praisedG2127 GodG2316.
AndG2532 fearG5401 cameG1096 onG1909 allG3956 that dwelt round aboutG4039 themG846: andG2532 allG3956 theseG5023 sayingsG4487 were noised abroadG1255 throughoutG1722 allG3650 the hill countryG3714 of JudaeaG2449. {sayings: or, things}
AndG2532 allG3956 they that heardG191 them laid them upG5087 inG1722 theirG846 heartsG2588, sayingG3004, WhatG5101 mannerG686 of childG3813 shallG2071 thisG5124 beG2071! AndG2532 the handG5495 of the LordG2962 wasG2258 withG3326 himG846.
AndG2532 hisG846 fatherG3962 ZachariasG2197 was filledG4130 with the HolyG40 GhostG4151, andG2532 prophesiedG4395, sayingG3004,
BlessedG2128 be the LordG2962 GodG2316 of IsraelG2474; forG3754 he hath visitedG1980 andG2532 redeemedG3085 hisG846 peopleG2992+G4160,
AndG2532 hath raised upG1453 an hornG2768 of salvationG4991 for usG2254 inG1722 the houseG3624 of hisG846 servantG3816 DavidG1138;
AsG2531 he spakeG2980 byG1223 the mouthG4750 of hisG846 holyG40 prophetsG4396, whichG3588 have been sinceG575 the world beganG165:
That we should be savedG4991 fromG1537 ourG2257 enemiesG2190, andG2532 fromG1537 the handG5495 of allG3956 that hateG3404 usG2248;
To performG4160 the mercyG1656 promised toG3326 ourG2257 fathersG3962, andG2532 to rememberG3415 hisG846 holyG40 covenantG1242;
The oathG3727 whichG3739 he swareG3660 toG4314 ourG2257 fatherG3962 AbrahamG11,
That he would grantG1325 unto usG2254, that we being deliveredG4506 out ofG1537 the handG5495 of ourG2257 enemiesG2190 might serveG3000 himG846 without fearG870,
InG1722 holinessG3742 andG2532 righteousnessG1343 beforeG1799 himG846, allG3956 the daysG2250 of ourG2257 lifeG2222.
AndG2532 thouG4771, childG3813, shalt be calledG2564 the prophetG4396 of the HighestG5310: forG1063 thou shalt goG4313 beforeG4253 the faceG4383 of the LordG2962 to prepareG2090 hisG846 waysG3598;
To giveG1325 knowledgeG1108 of salvationG4991 unto hisG846 peopleG2992 byG1722 the remissionG859 of theirG846 sinsG266, {by: or, for}
ThroughG1223 the tenderG4698 mercyG1656 of ourG2257 GodG2316; wherebyG1722+G3739 the dayspringG395 fromG1537 on highG5311 hath visitedG1980 usG2248, {tender…: or, bowels of the mercy} {dayspring: or, Sunrising, or, branch, Zac.3.8, esay II, I Malich.4.2, numb.24.17}
To give lightG2014 to them that sitG2521 inG1722 darknessG4655 andG2532 in the shadowG4639 of deathG2288, to guideG2720 ourG2257 feetG4228 intoG1519 the wayG3598 of peaceG1515.
AndG1161 the childG3813 grewG837, andG2532 waxed strongG2901 in spiritG4151, andG2532 wasG2258 inG1722 the desertsG2048 tillG2193 the dayG2250 of hisG846 shewingG323 untoG4314 IsraelG2474.

That we should be savedG4991 fromG1537 ourG2257 enemiesG2190, andG2532 fromG1537 the handG5495 of allG3956 that hateG3404 usG2248;
No lionH738 shall be there, nor any ravenousH6530 beastH2416 shall go upH5927 thereon, it shall not be foundH4672 there; but the redeemedH1350 shall walkH1980 there:
And the ransomedH6299 of the LORDH3068 shall returnH7725, and comeH935 to ZionH6726 with songsH7440 and everlastingH5769 joyH8057 upon their headsH7218: they shall obtainH5381 joyH8057 and gladnessH8342, and sorrowH3015 and sighingH585 shall flee awayH5127.
But IsraelH3478 shall be savedH3467 in the LORDH3068 with an everlastingH5769 salvationH8668: ye shall not be ashamedH954 nor confoundedH3637 worldH5769 without endH5703.
And all thy childrenH1121 shall be taughtH3928 of the LORDH3068; and greatH7227 shall be the peaceH7965 of thy childrenH1121.
In righteousnessH6666 shalt thou be establishedH3559: thou shalt be farH7368 from oppressionH6233; for thou shalt not fearH3372: and from terrorH4288; for it shall not come nearH7126 thee.
And they shall buildH1129 housesH1004, and inhabitH3427 them; and they shall plantH5193 vineyardsH3754, and eatH398 the fruitH6529 of them.
They shall not buildH1129, and anotherH312 inhabitH3427; they shall not plantH5193, and anotherH312 eatH398: for as the daysH3117 of a treeH6086 are the daysH3117 of my peopleH5971, and mine electH972 shall long enjoyH1086 the workH4639 of their handsH3027. {shall long…: Heb. shall make them continue long, or, shall wear out}
They shall not labourH3021 in vainH7385, nor bring forthH3205 for troubleH928; for they are the seedH2233 of the blessedH1288 of the LORDH3068, and their offspringH6631 with them.
And it shall come to pass, that before they callH7121, I will answerH6030; and while they are yet speakingH1696, I will hearH8085.
The wolfH2061 and the lambH2924 shall feedH7462 togetherH259, and the lionH738 shall eatH398 strawH8401 like the bullockH1241: and dustH6083 shall be the serpent'sH5175 meatH3899. They shall not hurtH7489 nor destroyH7843 in all my holyH6944 mountainH2022, saithH559 the LORDH3068.
And I will makeH3772 with them a covenantH1285 of peaceH7965, and will cause the evilH7451 beastsH2416 to ceaseH7673 out of the landH776: and they shall dwellH3427 safelyH983 in the wildernessH4057, and sleepH3462 in the woodsH3293+H3264.
And I will makeH5414 them and the places round aboutH5439 my hillH1389 a blessingH1293; and I will cause the showerH1653 to come downH3381 in his seasonH6256; there shall be showersH1653 of blessingH1293.
And the treeH6086 of the fieldH7704 shall yieldH5414 her fruitH6529, and the earthH776 shall yieldH5414 her increaseH2981, and they shall be safeH983 in their landH127, and shall knowH3045 that I am the LORDH3068, when I have brokenH7665 the bandsH4133 of their yokeH5923, and deliveredH5337 them out of the handH3027 of those that servedH5647 themselves of them.
And they shall no more be a preyH957 to the heathenH1471, neither shall the beastH2416 of the landH776 devourH398 them; but they shall dwellH3427 safelyH983, and none shall make them afraidH2729.
Then shall they knowH3045 that I am the LORDH3068 their GodH430, which caused them to be led into captivityH1540 among the heathenH1471: but I have gatheredH3664 them unto their own landH127, and have leftH3498 none of them any more there. {which…: Heb. by my causing of them, etc}
Neither will I hideH5641 my faceH6440 any more from them: for I have poured outH8210 my spiritH7307 upon the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478, saithH5002 the LordH136 GODH3069.
The LORDH3068 hath taken awayH5493 thy judgmentsH4941, he hath cast outH6437 thine enemyH341: the kingH4428 of IsraelH3478, even the LORDH3068, is in the midstH7130 of thee: thou shalt not seeH7200 evilH7451 any more.
In that dayH3117 it shall be saidH559 to JerusalemH3389, FearH3372 thou not: and to ZionH6726, Let not thine handsH3027 be slackH7503. {slack: or, faint}
The LORDH3068 thy GodH430 in the midstH7130 of thee is mightyH1368; he will saveH3467, he will rejoiceH7797 over thee with joyH8057; he will restH2790 in his loveH160, he will joyH1523 over thee with singingH7440. {rest: Heb. be silent}
And I will encampH2583 about mine houseH1004 because of the armyH4675, because of him that passeth byH5674, and because of him that returnethH7725: and no oppressorH5065 shall pass throughH5674 them any more: for now have I seenH7200 with mine eyesH5869.
RejoiceH1523 greatlyH3966, O daughterH1323 of ZionH6726; shoutH7321, O daughterH1323 of JerusalemH3389: behold, thy KingH4428 comethH935 unto thee: he is justH6662, and having salvationH3467; lowlyH6041, and ridingH7392 upon an assH2543, and upon a coltH5895 the foalH1121 of an assH860. {having…: or, saving himself}
And I will cut offH3772 the chariotH7393 from EphraimH669, and the horseH5483 from JerusalemH3389, and the battleH4421 bowH7198 shall be cut offH3772: and he shall speakH1696 peaceH7965 unto the heathenH1471: and his dominionH4915 shall be from seaH3220 even to seaH3220, and from the riverH5104 even to the endsH657 of the earthH776.
ButG1161 nowG3570 being made freeG1659 fromG575 sinG266, andG1161 become servantsG1402 to GodG2316, ye haveG2192 yourG5216 fruitG2590 untoG1519 holinessG38, andG1161 the endG5056 everlastingG166 lifeG2222.
ForG1063 ye haveG2983 notG3756 receivedG2983 the spiritG4151 of bondageG1397 againG3825 toG1519 fearG5401; butG235 ye have receivedG2983 the SpiritG4151 of adoptionG5206, wherebyG1722+G3739 we cryG2896, AbbaG5, FatherG3962.
ForG1063 GodG2316 hathG1325 notG3756 givenG1325 usG2254 the spiritG4151 of fearG1167; butG235 of powerG1411, andG2532 of loveG26, andG2532 of a sound mindG4995.
AndG2532 deliverG525 themG5128 whoG3745 throughG1223 fearG5401 of deathG2288 wereG2258 allG3956 their lifetimeG2198 subjectG1777 to bondageG1397.
How muchG4214 moreG3123 shallG2511 the bloodG129 of ChristG5547, whoG3739 throughG1223 the eternalG166 SpiritG4151 offeredG4374 himselfG1438 without spotG299 to GodG2316, purgeG2511 yourG5216 conscienceG4893 fromG575 deadG3498 worksG2041 toG1519 serveG3000 the livingG2198 GodG2316? {spot: or, fault}
FearG5399 noneG3367 of those things whichG3739 thou shaltG3195 sufferG3958: beholdG2400, the devilG1228 shallG3195 castG906 some ofG1537 youG5216 intoG1519 prisonG5438, thatG2443 ye may be triedG3985; andG2532 ye shall haveG2192 tribulationG2347 tenG1176 daysG2250: be thouG1096 faithfulG4103 untoG891 deathG2288, andG2532 I will giveG1325 theeG4671 a crownG4735 of lifeG2222.
