Luke 1:67-80
67 And his father Zechariah was filled with
the Holy Spirit and prophesied, saying: 68 “Blessed be
the Lord God of Israel, for He has visited and redeemed His people
69 and has raised up a horn of salvation for us in the
house of His servant David, 70 as He spoke by the mouth
of His holy prophets from of old, 71 that we should be
saved from our enemies and from the hand of all who hate us;
72 to show the mercy promised to our fathers and to
remember His holy covenant, 73 the oath that He swore to
our father Abraham, to grant us 74 that we, being
delivered from the hand of our enemies, might serve Him without
fear,75 in holiness and righteousness before Him all our
days. 76 And you, child, will be called the prophet of
the Most High; for you will go before the Lord to prepare His ways,
77 to give knowledge of salvation to His people in the
forgiveness of their sins, 78 because of the tender
mercy of our God, whereby the sunrise shall visit us from on high
79 to give light to those who sit in darkness and in the
shadow of death, to guide our feet into the way of peace.”
80 And the child grew and became strong in spirit, and
he was in the wilderness until the day of his public appearance to
Israel.
