Forasmuch G1895 as many G4183 have taken in hand G2021 to set forth in order G392 a declaration G1335 of G4012 those things G4229 which are most surely believed G4135 among G1722 us, G2254
Even as G2531 they delivered G3860 them unto us, G2254 which from the beginning were G1096 G575 G746 eyewitnesses, G845 and G2532 ministers G5257 of the G3588 word; G3056
It seemed good G1380 to me also, G2504 having had perfect G199 understanding G3877 of all things G3956 from the very first, G509 to write G1125 unto thee G4671 in order, G2517 most excellent G2903 Theophilus, G2321
There was G1096 in G1722 the G3588 days G2250 of Herod, G2264 the G3588 king G935 of Judea, G2449 a certain G5100 priest G2409 named G3686 Zacharias, G2197 of G1537 the course G2183 of Abijah: G7 and G2532 his G846 wife G1135 [was] of G1537 the G3588 daughters G2364 of Aaron, G2 and G2532 her G846 name G3686 [was] Elisabeth. G1665
And G1161 they were G2258 both G297 righteous G1342 before G1799 God, G2316 walking G4198 in G1722 all G3956 the G3588 commandments G1785 and G2532 ordinances G1345 of the G3588 Lord G2962 blameless. G273
And G2532 they had G2258 G846 no G3756 child, G5043 because that G2530 Elisabeth G1665 was G2258 barren, G4723 and G2532 they both G297 were G2258 [now] well stricken G4260 in G1722 years. G2250
And G1161 it came to pass, G1096 that while he G846 executed the priest's office G2407 before G1725 God G2316 in G1722 the G3588 order G5010 of his G848 course, G2183
According G2596 to the G3588 custom G1485 of the G3588 priest's office, G2405 his lot was G2975 to burn incense G2370 when he went G1525 into G1519 the G3588 temple G3485 of the G3588 Lord. G2962
And G2532 the G3588 whole G3956 multitude G4128 of the G3588 people G2992 were G2258 praying G4336 without G1854 at the G3588 time G5610 of incense. G2368
And G1161 there appeared G3700 unto him G846 an angel G32 of the Lord G2962 standing G2476 on G1537 the right side G1188 of the G3588 altar G2379 of incense. G2368
But G1161 the G3588 angel G32 said G2036 unto G4314 him, G846 Fear G5399 not, G3361 Zacharias: G2197 for G1360 thy G4675 prayer G1162 is heard; G1522 and G2532 thy G4675 wife G1135 Elisabeth G1665 shall bear G1080 thee G4671 a son, G5207 and G2532 thou shalt call G2564 his G846 name G3686 John. G2491
For G1063 he shall be G2071 great G3173 in the sight G1799 of the G3588 Lord, G2962 and G2532 shall drink G4095 neither G3364 wine G3631 nor G2532 strong drink; G4608 and G2532 he shall be filled G4130 with the Holy G40 Ghost, G4151 even G2089 from G1537 his G848 mother's G3384 womb. G2836
And G2532 he G846 shall go G4281 before G1799 him G846 in the spirit G4151 and G2532 power G1411 of Elijah, G2243 to turn G1994 the hearts G2588 of the fathers G3962 to G1909 the children, G5043 and G2532 the disobedient G545 to G1722 the wisdom G5428 of the just; G1342 to make ready G2090 a people G2992 prepared G2680 for the Lord. G2962
And G2532 Zacharias G2197 said G2036 unto G4314 the G3588 angel, G32 Whereby G2596 G5101 shall I know G1097 this G5124 ? for G1063 I G1473 am G1510 an old man G4246 and G2532 my G3450 wife G1135 well stricken G4260 in G1722 years. G2250
And G2532 the G3588 angel G32 answering G611 said G2036 unto him, G846 I G1473 am G1510 Gabriel, G1043 that stand G3936 in the presence G1799 of God; G2316 and G2532 am sent G649 to speak G2980 unto G4314 thee, G4571 and G2532 to show thee these glad tidings G2097 G4671. G5023
And G2532 , behold, G2400 thou shalt be G2071 dumb, G4623 and G2532 not G3361 able G1410 to speak, G2980 until G891 the G3739 day G2250 that these things G5023 shall be performed, G1096 because G473 thou G3739 believest G4100 not G3756 my G3450 words, G3056 which G3748 shall be fulfilled G4137 in G1519 their G848 season. G2540
And G2532 the G3588 people G2992 waited for G2258 G4328 Zacharias, G2197 and G2532 marveled G2296 that he G846 tarried so long G5549 in G1722 the G3588 temple. G3485
And G1161 when he came out, G1831 he could G1410 not G3756 speak G2980 unto them: G846 and G2532 they perceived G1921 that G3754 he had seen G3708 a vision G3701 in G1722 the G3588 temple: G3485 for G2532 he G846 beckoned G2258 G1269 unto them, G846 and G2532 remained G1265 speechless. G2974
And G2532 it came to pass, G1096 that , as soon as G5613 the G3588 days G2250 of his G846 ministration G3009 were accomplished, G4130 he departed G565 to G1519 his own G848 house. G3624
And G1161 after G3326 those G5025 days G2250 his G846 wife G1135 Elisabeth G1665 conceived, G4815 and G2532 hid G4032 herself G1438 five G4002 months, G3376 saying, G3004
Thus G3779 hath the G3588 Lord G2962 dealt G4160 with me G3427 in G1722 the G3588 days G2250 wherein G3739 he looked on G1896 [me,] to take away G851 my G3450 reproach G3681 among G1722 men. G444
And G1161 in G1722 the G3588 sixth G1623 month G3376 the G3588 angel G32 Gabriel G1043 was sent G649 from G5259 God G2316 unto G1519 a city G4172 of Galilee, G1056 named G3686 Nazareth, G3478
To G4314 a virgin G3933 espoused G3423 to a man G435 whose G3739 name G3686 was Joseph, G2501 of G1537 the house G3624 of David; G1138 and G2532 the G3588 virgin's G3933 name G3686 [was] Mary. G3137
And G2532 the G3588 angel G32 came in G1525 unto G4314 her, G846 and said, G2036 Hail, G5463 [thou] [that] [art] highly favored, G5487 the G3588 Lord G2962 [is] with G3326 thee: G4675 blessed G2127 [art] thou G4771 among G1722 women. G1135
And G1161 when she G3588 saw G1492 [him,] she was troubled G1298 at G1909 his G846 saying, G3056 and G2532 cast in her mind G1260 what manner G4217 of salutation G783 this G3778 should be. G1498
And G2532 the G3588 angel G32 said G2036 unto her, G846 Fear G5399 not, G3361 Mary: G3137 for G1063 thou hast found G2147 favor G5485 with G3844 God. G2316
And G2532 , behold, G2400 thou shalt conceive G4815 in G1722 thy womb, G1064 and G2532 bring forth G5088 a son, G5207 and G2532 shalt call G2564 his G846 name G3686 JESUS. G2424
He G3778 shall be G2071 great, G3173 and G2532 shall be called G2564 the Son G5207 of the Highest: G5310 and G2532 the Lord G2962 God G2316 shall give G1325 unto him G846 the G3588 throne G2362 of his G846 father G3962 David: G1138
And G2532 he shall reign G936 over G1909 the G3588 house G3624 of Jacob G2384 forever G1519 G165 ; and G2532 of his G846 kingdom G932 there shall be G2071 no G3756 end. G5056
And G2532 the G3588 angel G32 answered G611 and said G2036 unto her, G846 The Holy G40 Ghost G4151 shall come G1904 upon G1909 thee, G4571 and G2532 the power G1411 of the Highest G5310 shall overshadow G1982 thee: G4671 therefore G1352 also G2532 that holy thing G40 which shall be born G1080 of G1537 thee G4675 shall be called G2564 the Son G5207 of God. G2316
And G2532 , behold, G2400 thy G4675 cousin G4773 Elisabeth, G1665 she G846 hath also G2532 conceived G4815 a son G5207 in G1722 her G848 old age: G1094 and G2532 this G3778 is G2076 the sixth G1623 month G3376 with her, G846 who was called G2564 barren. G4723
And G1161 Mary G3137 said, G2036 Behold G2400 the G3588 handmaid G1399 of the Lord; G2962 be G1096 it unto me G3427 according G2596 to thy G4675 word. G4487 And G2532 the G3588 angel G32 departed G565 from G575 her. G846
And G1161 Mary G3137 arose G450 in G1722 those G5025 days, G2250 and went G4198 into G1519 the G3588 hill country G3714 with G3326 haste, G4710 into G1519 a city G4172 of Judah; G2448
And G2532 it came to pass, G1096 that, when G5613 Elisabeth G1665 heard G191 the G3588 salutation G783 of Mary, G3137 the G3588 babe G1025 leaped G4640 in G1722 her G846 womb; G2836 and G2532 Elisabeth G1665 was filled G4130 with the Holy G40 Ghost: G4151
And G2532 she spake out G400 with a loud G3173 voice, G5456 and G2532 said, G2036 Blessed G2127 [art] thou G4771 among G1722 women, G1135 and G2532 blessed G2127 [is] the G3588 fruit G2590 of thy G4675 womb. G2836
For G1063 , lo, G2400 as soon as G5613 the G3588 voice G5456 of thy G4675 salutation G783 sounded G1096 in G1519 mine G3450 ears, G3775 the G3588 babe G1025 leaped G4640 in G1722 my G3450 womb G2836 for G1722 joy. G20
And G2532 blessed G3107 [is] she that believed G4100 for G3754 there shall be G2071 a performance G5050 of those things which were told G2980 her G846 from G3844 the Lord. G2962
For G3754 he hath regarded G1914 the G3588 low estate G5014 of his G848 handmaiden: G1399 for, G1063 behold, G2400 from G575 henceforth G3568 all G3956 generations G1074 shall call me blessed G3106 G3165 .
He hath showed G4160 strength G2904 with G1722 his G848 arm; G1023 he hath scattered G1287 the proud G5244 in the imagination G1271 of their G846 hearts. G2588
And G2532 her G848 neighbors G4040 and G2532 her cousins G4773 heard G191 how G3754 the Lord G2962 had showed great mercy G3170 G848 G1656 upon G3326 her; G846 and G2532 they rejoiced with G4796 her. G846
And G2532 it came to pass, G1096 that on G1722 the G3588 eighth G3590 day G2250 they came G2064 to circumcise G4059 the G3588 child; G3813 and G2532 they called G2564 him G846 Zacharias, G2197 after G1909 the G3588 name G3686 of his G846 father. G3962
And G2532 they said G2036 unto G4314 her, G846 There is G2076 none G3762 of G1722 thy G4675 kindred G4772 that G3739 is called G2564 by this G5129 name. G3686
And G2532 he asked G154 for a writing table, G4093 and wrote, G1125 saying, G3004 His G846 name G3686 is G2076 John. G2491 And G2532 they marveled G2296 all. G3956
And G1161 his G846 mouth G4750 was opened G455 immediately, G3916 and G2532 his G846 tongue G1100 [loosed,] and G2532 he spake, G2980 and praised G2127 God. G2316
And G2532 fear G5401 came G1096 on G1909 all G3956 that dwelt round about G4039 them: G846 and G2532 all G3956 these G5023 sayings G4487 were noised abroad G1255 throughout G1722 all G3650 the G3588 hill country G3714 of Judea. G2449
And G2532 all G3956 they that heard G191 [them] laid [them] up G5087 in G1722 their G848 hearts, G2588 saying, G3004 What manner G5101 of G686 child G3813 shall this G5124 be G2071 ! And G2532 the hand G5495 of the Lord G2962 was G2258 with G3326 him. G846
That he would grant G1325 unto us, G2254 that we being delivered G4506 out of G1537 the hand G5495 of our G2257 enemies G2190 might serve G3000 him G846 without fear, G870
And G2532 thou, G4771 child, G3813 shalt be called G2564 the prophet G4396 of the Highest: G5310 for G1063 thou shalt go G4313 before G4253 the face G4383 of the Lord G2962 to prepare G2090 his G846 ways; G3598
Through G1223 the tender mercy G4698 G1656 of our G2257 God; G2316 whereby G1722 G3739 the dayspring G395 from G1537 on high G5311 hath visited G1980 us, G2248
To give light G2014 to them that sit G2521 in G1722 darkness G4655 and G2532 [in] the shadow G4639 of death, G2288 to guide G2720 our G2257 feet G4228 into G1519 the way G3598 of peace. G1515
And G1161 the G3588 child G3813 grew, G837 and G2532 waxed strong G2901 in spirit, G4151 and G2532 was G2258 in G1722 the G3588 deserts G2048 till G2193 the day G2250 of his G846 showing G323 unto G4314 Israel. G2474
