Book
Chapter
1
For as muchG1895 as manyG4183 have takenG2021 in handG2021 to setG392 forthG392 in orderG1299 a declarationG1335 of thoseG3588 thingsG4229 which are most surelyG4135 believedG4135 amongG1722 us,
2
EvenG2531 as they deliveredG3860 them to us, whichG3588 from the beginningG746 were eyewitnesses,G845 and ministersG5257 of the word;G3056
3
It seemedG1380 good to me also,G2504 having had perfectG199 understandingG3877 of allG3956 things from the very first,G509 to writeG1125 to you in order,G2517 mostG2903 excellentG2903 Theophilus,G2321
4
That you might knowG1921 the certaintyG803 of those things,G3056 whereinG4012 G3739 you have been instructed.G2727
5
THERE was in the daysG2250 of Herod,G2264 the kingG935 of Judaea,G2449 a certainG5100 priestG2409 namedG3686 Zacharias,G2197 of the courseG2183 of Abia:G7 and his wifeG1135 was of the daughtersG2364 of Aaron,G2 and her nameG3686 was Elisabeth.G1665
6
And they were bothG297 righteousG1342 beforeG1799 God,G2316 walkingG4198 in allG3956 the commandmentsG1785 and ordinancesG1345 of the LordG2962 blameless.G273
7
And they hadG1510 noG3756 child,G5043 becauseG2530 that ElisabethG1665 was barren,G4723 and they bothG297 were now wellG4260 strickenG4260 in years.G2250
8
And it cameG1096 to pass, that whileG1722 G3588 he executedG2407 the priest'sG2407 officeG2407 beforeG1725 GodG2316 in the orderG5010 of his course,G2183
9
AccordingG2596 to the customG1485 of the priest'sG2405 office,G2405 his lotG2975 was to burnG2370 incenseG2370 when he wentG1525 intoG1519 the templeG3485 of the Lord.G2962
10
And the wholeG3956 multitudeG4128 of the peopleG2992 were prayingG4336 withoutG1854 at the timeG5610 of incense.G2368
11
And there appearedG3700 to him an angelG32 of the LordG2962 standingG2476 onG1537 the rightG1188 sideG1188 of the altarG2379 of incense.G2368
12
And when ZachariasG2197 sawG1492 him, he was troubled,G5015 and fearG5401 fellG1968 on him.
13
But the angelG32 saidG2036 to him, FearG5399 not, Zacharias:G2197 for your prayerG1162 is heard;G1522 and your wifeG1135 ElisabethG1665 shall bearG1080 you a son,G5207 and you shall callG2564 his nameG3686 John.G2491
14
And you shall haveG2071 joyG5479 and gladness;G20 and manyG4183 shall rejoiceG5463 atG1909 his birth.G1083
15
For he shall be greatG3173 in the sightG1799 of the Lord,G2962 and shall drinkG4095 neitherG3756 G3361 wineG3631 norG2532 strongG4608 drink;G4608 and he shall be filledG4130 with the HolyG40 Ghost,G4151 evenG2089 from his mother'sG3384 womb.G2836
16
And manyG4183 of the childrenG5207 of IsraelG2474 shall he turnG1994 to the LordG2962 their God.G2316
17
And he shall goG4281 beforeG1799 him in the spiritG4151 and powerG1411 of Elias,G2243 to turnG1994 the heartsG2588 of the fathersG3962 to the children,G5043 and the disobedientG545 to the wisdomG5428 of the just;G1342 to makeG2090 readyG2090 a peopleG2992 preparedG2680 for the Lord.G2962
18
And ZachariasG2197 saidG2036 to the angel,G32 WherebyG2596 G5101 shall I knowG1097 this?G5124 for I am an oldG4246 man, and my wifeG1135 wellG4260 strickenG4260 in years.G2250
19
And the angelG32 answeringG611 saidG2036 to him, I amG1510 Gabriel,G1043 that standG3936 in the presenceG1799 of God;G2316 and am sentG649 to speakG2980 to you, and to showG2097 you theseG5023 gladG2097 tidings.G2097
20
And, behold,G2400 you shall be dumb,G4623 and not ableG1410 to speak,G2980 untilG891 the dayG2250 that theseG5023 things shall be performed,G1096 becauseG473 G3759 you believeG4100 not my words,G3056 whichG3748 shall be fulfilledG4137 in their season.G2540
21
And the peopleG2992 waitedG4328 for Zacharias,G2197 and marveledG2296 that he tarriedG5549 so long in the temple.G3485
22
And when he cameG1831 out, he couldG1410 not speakG2980 to them: and they perceivedG1921 that he had seenG3708 a visionG3701 in the temple:G3485 for he beckonedG1269 to them, and remainedG1265 speechless.G2974
23
And it cameG1096 to pass, that, as soon as the daysG2250 of his ministrationG3009 were accomplished,G4130 he departedG565 to his own house.G3624
24
And afterG3326 thoseG5025 daysG2250 his wifeG1135 ElisabethG1665 conceived,G4815 and hidG4032 herselfG1438 fiveG4002 months,G3376 saying,G3004
25
ThusG3779 has the LordG2962 dealtG4160 with me in the daysG2250 whereinG3739 he lookedG1896 onG1896 me, to takeG851 awayG851 my reproachG3681 amongG1722 men.G444
26
And in the sixthG1623 monthG3376 the angelG32 GabrielG1043 was sentG649 from GodG2316 to a cityG4172 of Galilee,G1056 namedG3686 Nazareth,G3478
27
To a virginG3933 espousedG3423 to a manG435 whoseG3739 nameG3686 was Joseph,G2501 of the houseG3624 of David;G1138 and the virgin'sG3933 nameG3686 was Mary.G3137
28
And the angelG32 cameG1525 in to her, and said,G2036 Hail,G5463 you that are highly favored,G5487 the LordG2962 is with you: blessedG2127 are you amongG1722 women.G1135
29
And when she sawG1492 him, she was troubledG1298 atG1909 his saying,G3056 and castG1260 in her mind whatG4217 mannerG4217 of salutationG783 thisG3778 should be.
30
And the angelG32 saidG2036 to her, FearG5399 not, Mary:G3137 for you have foundG2147 favorG5485 with God.G2316
31
And, behold,G2400 you shall conceiveG4815 in your womb,G1064 and bringG5088 forthG5088 a son,G5207 and shall callG2564 his nameG3686 JESUS.G2424
32
He shall be great,G3173 and shall be calledG2564 the SonG5207 of the Highest:G5310 and the LordG2962 GodG2316 shall giveG1325 to him the throneG2362 of his fatherG3962 David:G1138
33
And he shall reignG936 overG1909 the houseG3624 of JacobG2384 for ever;G165 and of his kingdomG932 there shall be noG3756 end.G5056
34
ThenG1161 saidG2036 MaryG3137 to the angel,G32 HowG4459 shall thisG5124 be, seeingG1893 I knowG1097 not a man?G435
35
And the angelG32 answeredG611 and saidG2036 to her, The HolyG40 GhostG4151 shall comeG1904 on you, and the powerG1411 of the HighestG5310 shall overshadowG1982 you: thereforeG1352 alsoG2532 that holyG40 thing which shall be bornG1080 of you shall be calledG2564 the SonG5207 of God.G2316
36
And, behold,G2400 your cousinG4773 Elisabeth,G1665 she has alsoG2532 conceivedG4815 a sonG5207 in her oldG1094 age: and thisG3778 is the sixthG1623 monthG3376 with her, whoG3588 was calledG2564 barren.G4723
37
For with GodG2316 nothingG3756 shall be impossible.G101
38
And MaryG3137 said,G2036 BeholdG2400 the handmaidG1399 of the Lord;G2962 be it to me accordingG2596 to your word.G4487 And the angelG32 departedG565 from her.
39
And MaryG3137 aroseG450 in thoseG5025 days,G2250 and wentG4198 intoG1519 the hillG3714 country with haste,G4710 intoG1519 a cityG4172 of Juda;G2448
40
And enteredG1525 intoG1519 the houseG3624 of Zacharias,G2197 and salutedG782 Elisabeth.G1665
41
And it cameG1096 to pass, that, whenG5613 ElisabethG1665 heardG191 the salutationG783 of Mary,G3137 the babeG1025 leapedG4640 in her womb;G2836 and ElisabethG1665 was filledG4130 with the HolyG40 Ghost:G4151
42
And she spokeG400 out with a loudG3173 voice,G5456 and said,G2036 BlessedG2127 are you amongG1722 women,G1135 and blessedG2127 is the fruitG2590 of your womb.G2836
43
And whatG4159 is thisG5124 to me, that the motherG3384 of my LordG2962 should comeG2064 to me?
44
For, see,G2400 as soon as the voiceG5456 of your salutationG783 soundedG1096 in myG3450 ears,G3775 the babeG1025 leapedG4640 in my wombG2836 for joy.G20
45
And blessedG3107 is she that believed:G4100 for there shall be a performanceG5050 of thoseG3588 things which were toldG2980 her from the Lord.G2962
46
And MaryG3137 said,G2036 My soulG5590 does magnifyG3170 the Lord,G2962
47
And my spiritG4151 has rejoicedG21 in GodG2316 my Savior.G4990
48
For he has regardedG1914 the lowG5014 estate of his handmaiden:G1399 for, behold,G2400 from now onG3568 allG3956 generationsG1074 shall callG3106 me blessed.G3106
49
For he that is mightyG1415 has doneG4160 to me greatG3167 things; and holyG40 is his name.G3686
50
And his mercyG1656 is on them that fearG5399 him from generationG1074 to generation.G1074
51
He has showedG4160 strengthG2904 with his arm;G1023 he has scatteredG1287 the proudG5244 in the imaginationG1271 of their hearts.G2588
52
He has putG2507 downG2507 the mightyG1413 from their seats,G2362 and exaltedG5312 them of lowG5011 degree.G5011
53
He has filledG1705 the hungryG3983 with goodG18 things; and the richG4147 he has sentG1821 emptyG2756 away.G1821
54
He has helpedG482 his servantG3816 Israel,G2474 in remembranceG3415 of his mercy;G1656
55
As he spokeG2980 to our fathers,G3962 to Abraham,G11 and to his seedG4690 for ever.G165
56
And MaryG3137 stayedG3306 with her aboutG5616 threeG5140 months,G3376 and returnedG5290 to her own house.G3624
57
NowG1161 Elisabeth'sG1665 fullG4130 timeG5550 cameG4130 that she should be delivered;G5088 and she broughtG1080 forthG1080 a son.G5207
58
And her neighborsG4040 and her cousinsG4773 heardG191 howG3754 the LordG2962 had showedG3170 greatG3170 mercyG1656 on her; and they rejoicedG4796 with her.
59
And it cameG1096 to pass, that onG1722 the eighthG3590 dayG2250 they cameG2064 to circumciseG4059 the child;G3813 and they calledG2564 him Zacharias,G2197 afterG1909 the nameG3686 of his father.G3962
60
And his motherG3384 answeredG611 and said,G2036 Not so; but he shall be calledG2564 John.G2491
61
And they saidG2036 to her, There is noneG3762 of your kindredG4772 that is calledG2564 by thisG5129 name.G3686
62
And they madeG1770 signsG1770 to his father,G3962 howG5101 he wouldG2309 have him called.G2564
63
And he askedG154 for a writingG4093 table,G4093 and wrote,G1125 saying,G3004 His nameG3686 is John.G2491 And they marveledG2296 all.G3956
64
And his mouthG4750 was openedG455 immediately,G3916 and his tongueG1100 loosed, and he spoke,G2980 and praisedG2127 God.G2316
65
And fearG5401 cameG1096 onG1909 allG3956 that dwelledG4039 roundG4039 about them: and allG3956 theseG5023 sayingsG4487 were noisedG1255 abroadG1255 throughoutG1722 allG3650 the hillG3714 country of Judaea.G2449
66
And allG3956 they that heardG191 them laidG5087 them up in their hearts,G2588 saying,G3004 WhatG5101 G686 mannerG686 of childG3813 shall thisG5124 be! And the handG5495 of the LordG2962 was with him.
67
And his fatherG3962 ZachariasG2197 was filledG4130 with the HolyG40 Ghost,G4151 and prophesied,G4395 saying,G3004
68
BlessedG2128 be the LordG2962 GodG2316 of Israel;G2474 for he has visitedG1980 and redeemedG4160 G3085 his people,G2992
69
And has raisedG1453 up an hornG2768 of salvationG4991 for us in the houseG3624 of his servantG3816 David;G1138
70
As he spokeG2980 by the mouthG4750 of his holyG40 prophets,G4396 whichG3588 have been sinceG575 the worldG165 began:
71
That we should be savedG4991 from our enemies,G2190 and from the handG5495 of allG3956 that hateG3404 us;
72
To performG4160 the mercyG1656 promised to our fathers,G3962 and to rememberG3415 his holyG40 covenant;G1242
73
The oathG3727 whichG3739 he sworeG3660 to our fatherG3962 Abraham,G11
74
That he would grantG1325 to us, that we being deliveredG4506 out of the handG5495 of our enemiesG2190 might serveG3000 him withoutG870 fear,G870
75
In holinessG3742 and righteousnessG1343 beforeG1799 him, allG3956 the daysG2250 of our life.G2222
76
And you, child,G3813 shall be calledG2564 the prophetG4396 of the Highest:G5310 for you shall goG4313 beforeG4253 the faceG4383 of the LordG2962 to prepareG2090 his ways;G3598
77
To giveG1325 knowledgeG1108 of salvationG4991 to his peopleG2992 by the remissionG859 of their sins,G266
78
ThroughG1223 the tenderG4698 mercyG1656 of our God;G2316 wherebyG1722 G3739 the dayspringG395 from on highG5311 has visitedG1980 us,
79
To giveG2014 lightG2014 to them that sitG2521 in darknessG4655 and in the shadowG4639 of death,G2288 to guideG2720 our feetG4228 intoG1519 the wayG3598 of peace.G1515
80
And the childG3813 grew,G837 and waxedG2901 strongG2901 in spirit,G4151 and was in the desertsG2048 tillG2193 the dayG2250 of his showingG323 to Israel.G2474
