La Nuova Diodati
1 Poiché molti hanno intrapreso ad esporre ordinatamente la narrazione delle cose che si sono verificate in mezzo a noi,
2 come ce le hanno trasmesse coloro che da principio ne furono testimoni oculari e ministri della parola,
3 è parso bene anche a me, dopo aver indagato ogni cosa accuratamente fin dall'inizio, di scrivertene per ordine, eccellentissimo Teofilo,
4 affinché tu riconosca la certezza delle cose che ti sono state insegnate.
5 Ai giorni di Erode, re della Giudea, vi era un certo sacerdote di nome Zaccaria, della classe di Abia; sua moglie era discendente da Aaronne e si chiamava Elisabetta.
6 Erano entrambi giusti agli occhi di Dio, camminando irreprensibili in tutti i comandamenti e le leggi del Signore.
7 Ma non avevano figli, perché Elisabetta era sterile, ed entrambi erano già avanzati in età.
8 Or avvenne che, mentre Zaccaria esercitava il suo ufficio sacerdotale davanti a Dio nell'ordine della sua classe,
9 secondo l'usanza del servizio sacerdotale, gli toccò in sorte di entrare nel tempio del Signore per bruciare l'incenso.
10 Intanto l'intera folla del popolo stava fuori in preghiera, nell'ora dell'incenso.
11 Allora un angelo del Signore gli apparve, stando in piedi alla destra dell'altare dell'incenso.
12 Al vederlo Zaccaria fu turbato e preso da paura,
13 Ma l'angelo gli disse: «Non temere Zaccaria, perché la tua preghiera è stata esaudita e tua moglie Elisabetta ti partorirà un figlio, al quale porrai nome Giovanni.
14 Ed egli sarà per te motivo di gioia e di allegrezza, e molti si rallegreranno per la sua nascita.
15 Perché egli sarà grande davanti al Signore; non berrà né vino né bevande inebrianti e sarà ripieno di Spirito Santo fin dal grembo di sua madre.
16 E convertirà molti dei figli d'Israele al Signore, loro Dio.
17 Ed andrà davanti a lui nello spirito e potenza di Elia, per ricondurre i cuori dei padri verso i figli e i ribelli alla saggezza dei giusti, per preparare al Signore un popolo ben disposto».
18 E Zaccaria disse all'angelo: «Da che cosa conoscerò questo? Poiché io sono vecchio e mia moglie è avanzata negli anni».
19 E l'angelo, rispondendo, gli disse: «Io sono Gabriele che sto alla presenza di Dio, e sono stato mandato per parlarti e annunziarti queste buone novelle.
20 Ed ecco, tu sarai muto e non potrai parlare fino al giorno in cui queste cose avverranno, perché non hai creduto alle mie parole che si adempiranno a loro tempo».
21 Intanto il popolo aspettava Zaccaria e si meravigliava che egli si trattenesse cosí a lungo nel tempio.
22 Ma, quando uscí, non poteva parlare loro; allora essi compresero che egli aveva avuto una visione nel tempio; egli faceva loro dei cenni, ma rimase muto.
23 E avvenne che, quando furono compiuti i giorni del suo servizio, egli ritornò a casa sua.
24 Ora, dopo quei giorni, sua moglie Elisabetta concepí; e si tenne nascosta per cinque mesi e diceva:
25 «Ecco cosa mi ha fatto il Signore nei giorni, in cui ha volto il suo sguardo su di me per rimuovere la mia vergogna tra gli uomini».
26 Nel sesto mese, l'angelo Gabriele fu mandato da Dio in una città della Galilea, chiamata Nazaret,
27 ad una vergine fidanzata a un uomo di nome Giuseppe, della casa di Davide; e il nome della vergine era Maria.
28 E l'angelo, entrato da lei, disse: «Salve, o grandemente favorita, il Signore è con te; tu sei benedetta fra le donne»
29 Ma quando lo vide, ella rimase turbata alle sue parole, e si domandava cosa potesse significare un tale saluto.
30 E l'angelo le disse: «Non temere, Maria, perché hai trovato grazia presso Dio.
31 Ed ecco, tu concepirai nel grembo e partorirai un figlio, e gli porrai nome Gesú.
32 Egli sarà grande e sarà chiamato Figlio dell'Altissimo; e il Signore Dio gli darà il trono di Davide, suo padre;
33 e regnerà sulla casa di Giacobbe in eterno, e il suo regno non avrà mai fine».
34 E Maria disse all'angelo: «Come avverrà questo, poiché io non conosco uomo?».
35 E l'angelo, rispondendo, le disse: «Lo Spirito Santo verrà su di te e la potenza dell'Altissimo ti adombrerà, pertanto il santo che nascerà da te sarà chiamato figlio di Dio.
36 Ed ecco Elisabetta, tua parente, ha anch'ella concepito un figlio nella sua vecchiaia; e questo è il sesto mese per lei, che era chiamata sterile
37 poiché nulla è impossibile con Dio».
38 Allora Maria disse: «Ecco la serva del Signore; mi sia fatto secondo la tua parola». E l'angelo si allontanò da lei.
39 Ora in quei giorni Maria si levò e si recò in fretta nella regione montuosa, in una città di Giuda,
40 ed entrò in casa di Zaccaria e salutò Elisabetta.
41 E avvenne che, appena Elisabetta udì il saluto di Maria, il bambino le sobbalzò nel grembo, ed Elisabetta fu ripiena di Spirito Santo,
42 ed esclamò a gran voce, dicendo: «Tu sei benedetta fra le donne e benedetto è il frutto del tuo grembo.
43 E perché mi accade questo, che la madre del mio Signore venga a me?
44 Poiché, ecco, appena la voce del tuo saluto mi è giunta agli orecchi, il bambino è sobbalzato di gioia nel mio grembo.
45 Ora, beata è colei che ha creduto, perché le cose dettele da parte del Signore avranno compimento».
46 E Maria disse: «L'anima mia magnifica il Signore,
47 e lo spirito mio esulta in Dio, mio Salvatore,
48 perché egli ha avuto riguardo alla bassezza della sua serva, poiché ecco d'ora in poi tutte le generazioni mi proclameranno beata,
49 perché il Potente mi ha fatto cose grandi, e Santo è il suo nome!
50 E la sua misericordia si estende di generazione in generazione verso coloro che lo temono.
51 Egli ha operato potentemente col suo braccio; ha disperso i superbi nei pensieri del loro cuore;
52 ha rovesciato i potenti dai loro troni ed ha innalzato gli umili
53 ha ricolmato di beni gli affamati e ha rimandato i ricchi a mani vuote.
54 Egli ha soccorso Israele, suo servo, ricordandosi della sua misericordia
55 come aveva dichiarato ai nostri padri, ad Abrahamo e alla sua progenie, per sempre».
56 E Maria rimase con Elisabetta circa tre mesi, poi se ne tornò a casa sua.
57 Ora giunse per Elisabetta il tempo di partorire, e diede alla luce un figlio.
58 I suoi vicini e i parenti, udendo che il Signore le aveva usato grande misericordia, si rallegrarono con lei.
59 Ed avvenne che nell'ottavo giorno vennero per circoncidere il bambino e intendevano chiamarlo Zaccaria, col nome di suo padre;
60 ma sua madre intervenne e disse: «No, si chiamerà invece Giovanni».
61 Ed essi le dissero: «Non vi è alcuno nella tua parentela che si chiami con questo nome».
62 Cosí domandarono con cenni a suo padre, come voleva che lo si chiamasse.
63 Egli allora chiese una tavoletta e vi scrisse: «Il suo nome è Giovanni». E tutti si meravigliarono.
64 In quell'istante la sua bocca si aperse e la sua lingua si sciolse, e parlava benedicendo Dio.
65 E tutti i loro vicini furono presi da timore, e tutte queste cose erano divulgate per tutta la regione montuosa della Giudea.
66 E tutti coloro che le udirono, le riposero nel cuore loro, dicendo: «Chi sarà mai questo bambino?». E la mano del Signore era con lui.
67 E Zaccaria, suo padre, fu ripieno di Spirito Santo e profetizzò, dicendo:
68 «Benedetto sia il Signore Dio d'Israele, perché ha visitato e compiuto la redenzione per il suo popolo;
69 e ci ha suscitato una potente salvezza nella casa di Davide suo servo
70 come egli aveva dichiarato per bocca dei suoi santi profeti fin dai tempi antichi, perché fossimo salvati
71 dai nostri nemici e dalle mani di tutti coloro che ci odiano,
72 per usare misericordia verso i nostri padri e ricordarsi del suo santo patto,
73 il giuramento fatto ad Abrahamo nostro padre,
74 per concederci che, liberati dalle mani dei nostri nemici, lo potessimo servire senza paura,
75 in santità e giustizia davanti a lui tutti i giorni della nostra vita.
76 E tu, o piccolo bambino, sarai chiamato profeta dell'Altissimo, perché tu andrai davanti alla faccia del Signore a preparare le sue vie,
77 per dare al suo popolo la conoscenza della salvezza, nel perdono dei loro peccati;
78 grazie alle viscere di misericordia de nostro Dio, per cui l'aurora dall'alto ci visiterà,
79 per illuminare quelli che giacevano nelle tenebre e nell'ombra della morte, per guidare i nostri passi nella via della pace».
80 Intanto il bambino cresceva e si fortificava nello spirito, e rimase nei deserti fino al giorno che egli doveva manifestarsi ad Israele.

1 επειδηπερ πολλοι επεχειρησαν αναταξασθαι διηγησιν περι των πεπληροφορημενων εν ημιν πραγματων
2 καθως παρεδοσαν ημιν οι απ αρχης αυτοπται και υπηρεται γενομενοι του λογου
3 εδοξεν καμοι παρηκολουθηκοτι ανωθεν πασιν ακριβως καθεξης σοι γραψαι κρατιστε θεοφιλε
4 ινα επιγνως περι ων κατηχηθης λογων την ασφαλειαν
5 εγενετο εν ταις ημεραις ηρωδου του βασιλεως της ιουδαιας ιερευς τις ονοματι ζαχαριας εξ εφημεριας αβια και η γυνη αυτου εκ των θυγατερων ααρων και το ονομα αυτης ελισαβετ
6 ησαν δε δικαιοι αμφοτεροι ενωπιον του θεου πορευομενοι εν πασαις ταις εντολαις και δικαιωμασιν του κυριου αμεμπτοι
7 και ουκ ην αυτοις τεκνον καθοτι η ελισαβετ ην στειρα και αμφοτεροι προβεβηκοτες εν ταις ημεραις αυτων ησαν
8 εγενετο δε εν τω ιερατευειν αυτον εν τη ταξει της εφημεριας αυτου εναντι του θεου
9 κατα το εθος της ιερατειας ελαχεν του θυμιασαι εισελθων εις τον ναον του κυριου
10 και παν το πληθος του λαου ην προσευχομενον εξω τη ωρα του θυμιαματος
11 ωφθη δε αυτω αγγελος κυριου εστως εκ δεξιων του θυσιαστηριου του θυμιαματος
12 και εταραχθη ζαχαριας ιδων και φοβος επεπεσεν επ αυτον
13 ειπεν δε προς αυτον ο αγγελος μη φοβου ζαχαρια διοτι εισηκουσθη η δεησις σου και η γυνη σου ελισαβετ γεννησει υιον σοι και καλεσεις το ονομα αυτου ιωαννην
14 και εσται χαρα σοι και αγαλλιασις και πολλοι επι τη γεννησει αυτου χαρησονται
15 εσται γαρ μεγας ενωπιον του κυριου και οινον και σικερα ου μη πιη και πνευματος αγιου πλησθησεται ετι εκ κοιλιας μητρος αυτου
16 και πολλους των υιων ισραηλ επιστρεψει επι κυριον τον θεον αυτων
17 και αυτος προελευσεται ενωπιον αυτου εν πνευματι και δυναμει ηλιου επιστρεψαι καρδιας πατερων επι τεκνα και απειθεις εν φρονησει δικαιων ετοιμασαι κυριω λαον κατεσκευασμενον
18 και ειπεν ζαχαριας προς τον αγγελον κατα τι γνωσομαι τουτο εγω γαρ ειμι πρεσβυτης και η γυνη μου προβεβηκυια εν ταις ημεραις αυτης
19 και αποκριθεις ο αγγελος ειπεν αυτω εγω ειμι γαβριηλ ο παρεστηκως ενωπιον του θεου και απεσταλην λαλησαι προς σε και ευαγγελισασθαι σοι ταυτα
20 και ιδου εση σιωπων και μη δυναμενος λαλησαι αχρι ης ημερας γενηται ταυτα ανθ ων ουκ επιστευσας τοις λογοις μου οιτινες πληρωθησονται εις τον καιρον αυτων
21 και ην ο λαος προσδοκων τον ζαχαριαν και εθαυμαζον εν τω χρονιζειν αυτον εν τω ναω
22 εξελθων δε ουκ ηδυνατο λαλησαι αυτοις και επεγνωσαν οτι οπτασιαν εωρακεν εν τω ναω και αυτος ην διανευων αυτοις και διεμενεν κωφος
23 και εγενετο ως επλησθησαν αι ημεραι της λειτουργιας αυτου απηλθεν εις τον οικον αυτου
24 μετα δε ταυτας τας ημερας συνελαβεν ελισαβετ η γυνη αυτου και περιεκρυβεν εαυτην μηνας πεντε λεγουσα
25 οτι ουτως μοι πεποιηκεν ο κυριος εν ημεραις αις επειδεν αφελειν το ονειδος μου εν ανθρωποις
26 εν δε τω μηνι τω εκτω απεσταλη ο αγγελος γαβριηλ υπο του θεου εις πολιν της γαλιλαιας η ονομα ναζαρετ
27 προς παρθενον μεμνηστευμενην ανδρι ω ονομα ιωσηφ εξ οικου δαβιδ και το ονομα της παρθενου μαριαμ
28 και εισελθων ο αγγελος προς αυτην ειπεν χαιρε κεχαριτωμενη ο κυριος μετα σου ευλογημενη συ εν γυναιξιν
29 η δε ιδουσα διεταραχθη επι τω λογω αυτου και διελογιζετο ποταπος ειη ο ασπασμος ουτος
30 και ειπεν ο αγγελος αυτη μη φοβου μαριαμ ευρες γαρ χαριν παρα τω θεω
31 και ιδου συλληψη εν γαστρι και τεξη υιον και καλεσεις το ονομα αυτου ιησουν
32 ουτος εσται μεγας και υιος υψιστου κληθησεται και δωσει αυτω κυριος ο θεος τον θρονον δαβιδ του πατρος αυτου
33 και βασιλευσει επι τον οικον ιακωβ εις τους αιωνας και της βασιλειας αυτου ουκ εσται τελος
34 ειπεν δε μαριαμ προς τον αγγελον πως εσται τουτο επει ανδρα ου γινωσκω
35 και αποκριθεις ο αγγελος ειπεν αυτη πνευμα αγιον επελευσεται επι σε και δυναμις υψιστου επισκιασει σοι διο και το γεννωμενον αγιον κληθησεται υιος θεου
36 και ιδου ελισαβετ η συγγενης σου και αυτη συνειληφυια υιον εν γηρα αυτης και ουτος μην εκτος εστιν αυτη τη καλουμενη στειρα
37 οτι ουκ αδυνατησει παρα τω θεω παν ρημα
38 ειπεν δε μαριαμ ιδου η δουλη κυριου γενοιτο μοι κατα το ρημα σου και απηλθεν απ αυτης ο αγγελος
39 αναστασα δε μαριαμ εν ταις ημεραις ταυταις επορευθη εις την ορεινην μετα σπουδης εις πολιν ιουδα
40 και εισηλθεν εις τον οικον ζαχαριου και ησπασατο την ελισαβετ
41 και εγενετο ως ηκουσεν η ελισαβετ τον ασπασμον της μαριας εσκιρτησεν το βρεφος εν τη κοιλια αυτης και επλησθη πνευματος αγιου η ελισαβετ
42 και ανεφωνησεν φωνη μεγαλη και ειπεν ευλογημενη συ εν γυναιξιν και ευλογημενος ο καρπος της κοιλιας σου
43 και ποθεν μοι τουτο ινα ελθη η μητηρ του κυριου μου προς με
44 ιδου γαρ ως εγενετο η φωνη του ασπασμου σου εις τα ωτα μου εσκιρτησεν εν αγαλλιασει το βρεφος εν τη κοιλια μου
45 και μακαρια η πιστευσασα οτι εσται τελειωσις τοις λελαλημενοις αυτη παρα κυριου
46 και ειπεν μαριαμ μεγαλυνει η ψυχη μου τον κυριον
47 και ηγαλλιασεν το πνευμα μου επι τω θεω τω σωτηρι μου
48 οτι επεβλεψεν επι την ταπεινωσιν της δουλης αυτου ιδου γαρ απο του νυν μακαριουσιν με πασαι αι γενεαι
49 οτι εποιησεν μοι μεγαλεια ο δυνατος και αγιον το ονομα αυτου
50 και το ελεος αυτου εις γενεας γενεων τοις φοβουμενοις αυτον
51 εποιησεν κρατος εν βραχιονι αυτου διεσκορπισεν υπερηφανους διανοια καρδιας αυτων
52 καθειλεν δυναστας απο θρονων και υψωσεν ταπεινους
53 πεινωντας ενεπλησεν αγαθων και πλουτουντας εξαπεστειλεν κενους
54 αντελαβετο ισραηλ παιδος αυτου μνησθηναι ελεους
55 καθως ελαλησεν προς τους πατερας ημων τω αβρααμ και τω σπερματι αυτου εις τον αιωνα
56 εμεινεν δε μαριαμ συν αυτη ωσει μηνας τρεις και υπεστρεψεν εις τον οικον αυτης
57 τη δε ελισαβετ επλησθη ο χρονος του τεκειν αυτην και εγεννησεν υιον
58 και ηκουσαν οι περιοικοι και οι συγγενεις αυτης οτι εμεγαλυνεν κυριος το ελεος αυτου μετ αυτης και συνεχαιρον αυτη
59 και εγενετο εν τη ογδοη ημερα ηλθον περιτεμειν το παιδιον και εκαλουν αυτο επι τω ονοματι του πατρος αυτου ζαχαριαν
60 και αποκριθεισα η μητηρ αυτου ειπεν ουχι αλλα κληθησεται ιωαννης
61 και ειπον προς αυτην οτι ουδεις εστιν εν τη συγγενεια σου ος καλειται τω ονοματι τουτω
62 ενενευον δε τω πατρι αυτου το τι αν θελοι καλεισθαι αυτον
63 και αιτησας πινακιδιον εγραψεν λεγων ιωαννης εστιν το ονομα αυτου και εθαυμασαν παντες
64 ανεωχθη δε το στομα αυτου παραχρημα και η γλωσσα αυτου και ελαλει ευλογων τον θεον
65 και εγενετο επι παντας φοβος τους περιοικουντας αυτους και εν ολη τη ορεινη της ιουδαιας διελαλειτο παντα τα ρηματα ταυτα
66 και εθεντο παντες οι ακουσαντες εν τη καρδια αυτων λεγοντες τι αρα το παιδιον τουτο εσται και χειρ κυριου ην μετ αυτου
67 και ζαχαριας ο πατηρ αυτου επλησθη πνευματος αγιου και προεφητευσεν λεγων
68 ευλογητος κυριος ο θεος του ισραηλ οτι επεσκεψατο και εποιησεν λυτρωσιν τω λαω αυτου
69 και ηγειρεν κερας σωτηριας ημιν εν τω οικω δαβιδ του παιδος αυτου
70 καθως ελαλησεν δια στοματος των αγιων των απ αιωνος προφητων αυτου
71 σωτηριαν εξ εχθρων ημων και εκ χειρος παντων των μισουντων ημας
72 ποιησαι ελεος μετα των πατερων ημων και μνησθηναι διαθηκης αγιας αυτου
73 ορκον ον ωμοσεν προς αβρααμ τον πατερα ημων του δουναι ημιν
74 αφοβως εκ χειρος των εχθρων ημων ρυσθεντας λατρευειν αυτω
75 εν οσιοτητι και δικαιοσυνη ενωπιον αυτου πασας τας ημερας της ζωης ημων
76 και συ παιδιον προφητης υψιστου κληθηση προπορευση γαρ προ προσωπου κυριου ετοιμασαι οδους αυτου
77 του δουναι γνωσιν σωτηριας τω λαω αυτου εν αφεσει αμαρτιων αυτων
78 δια σπλαγχνα ελεους θεου ημων εν οις επεσκεψατο ημας ανατολη εξ υψους
79 επιφαναι τοις εν σκοτει και σκια θανατου καθημενοις του κατευθυναι τους ποδας ημων εις οδον ειρηνης
80 το δε παιδιον ηυξανεν και εκραταιουτο πνευματι και ην εν ταις ερημοις εως ημερας αναδειξεως αυτου προς τον ισραηλ

51 εποιησεν κρατος εν βραχιονι αυτου διεσκορπισεν υπερηφανους διανοια καρδιας αυτων
52 καθειλεν δυναστας απο θρονων και υψωσεν ταπεινους
53 πεινωντας ενεπλησεν αγαθων και πλουτουντας εξαπεστειλεν κενους
54 αντελαβετο ισραηλ παιδος αυτου μνησθηναι ελεους
55 καθως ελαλησεν προς τους πατερας ημων τω αβρααμ και τω σπερματι αυτου εις τον αιωνα
56 εμεινεν δε μαριαμ συν αυτη ωσει μηνας τρεις και υπεστρεψεν εις τον οικον αυτης
57 τη δε ελισαβετ επλησθη ο χρονος του τεκειν αυτην και εγεννησεν υιον
58 και ηκουσαν οι περιοικοι και οι συγγενεις αυτης οτι εμεγαλυνεν κυριος το ελεος αυτου μετ αυτης και συνεχαιρον αυτη
59 και εγενετο εν τη ογδοη ημερα ηλθον περιτεμειν το παιδιον και εκαλουν αυτο επι τω ονοματι του πατρος αυτου ζαχαριαν
60 και αποκριθεισα η μητηρ αυτου ειπεν ουχι αλλα κληθησεται ιωαννης
61 και ειπον προς αυτην οτι ουδεις εστιν εν τη συγγενεια σου ος καλειται τω ονοματι τουτω
62 ενενευον δε τω πατρι αυτου το τι αν θελοι καλεισθαι αυτον
63 και αιτησας πινακιδιον εγραψεν λεγων ιωαννης εστιν το ονομα αυτου και εθαυμασαν παντες
64 ανεωχθη δε το στομα αυτου παραχρημα και η γλωσσα αυτου και ελαλει ευλογων τον θεον
65 και εγενετο επι παντας φοβος τους περιοικουντας αυτους και εν ολη τη ορεινη της ιουδαιας διελαλειτο παντα τα ρηματα ταυτα
66 και εθεντο παντες οι ακουσαντες εν τη καρδια αυτων λεγοντες τι αρα το παιδιον τουτο εσται και χειρ κυριου ην μετ αυτου
67 και ζαχαριας ο πατηρ αυτου επλησθη πνευματος αγιου και προεφητευσεν λεγων
68 ευλογητος κυριος ο θεος του ισραηλ οτι επεσκεψατο και εποιησεν λυτρωσιν τω λαω αυτου
69 και ηγειρεν κερας σωτηριας ημιν εν τω οικω δαβιδ του παιδος αυτου
70 καθως ελαλησεν δια στοματος των αγιων των απ αιωνος προφητων αυτου
71 σωτηριαν εξ εχθρων ημων και εκ χειρος παντων των μισουντων ημας
72 ποιησαι ελεος μετα των πατερων ημων και μνησθηναι διαθηκης αγιας αυτου
73 ορκον ον ωμοσεν προς αβρααμ τον πατερα ημων του δουναι ημιν
74 αφοβως εκ χειρος των εχθρων ημων ρυσθεντας λατρευειν αυτω
75 εν οσιοτητι και δικαιοσυνη ενωπιον αυτου πασας τας ημερας της ζωης ημων
76 και συ παιδιον προφητης υψιστου κληθηση προπορευση γαρ προ προσωπου κυριου ετοιμασαι οδους αυτου
77 του δουναι γνωσιν σωτηριας τω λαω αυτου εν αφεσει αμαρτιων αυτων
78 δια σπλαγχνα ελεους θεου ημων εν οις επεσκεψατο ημας ανατολη εξ υψους
79 επιφαναι τοις εν σκοτει και σκια θανατου καθημενοις του κατευθυναι τους ποδας ημων εις οδον ειρηνης
80 το δε παιδιον ηυξανεν και εκραταιουτο πνευματι και ην εν ταις ερημοις εως ημερας αναδειξεως αυτου προς τον ισραηλ

Introduction(A)
1 Many have undertaken to draw up an account of the things that have been fulfilled[a] among us, 2 just as they were handed down to us by those who from the first(B) were eyewitnesses(C) and servants of the word.(D) 3 With this in mind, since I myself have carefully investigated everything from the beginning, I too decided to write an orderly account(E) for you, most excellent(F) Theophilus,(G) 4 so that you may know the certainty of the things you have been taught.(H)
The Birth of John the Baptist Foretold
5 In the time of Herod king of Judea(I) there was a priest named Zechariah, who belonged to the priestly division of Abijah;(J) his wife Elizabeth was also a descendant of Aaron. 6 Both of them were righteous in the sight of God, observing all the Lord’s commands and decrees blamelessly.(K) 7 But they were childless because Elizabeth was not able to conceive, and they were both very old.
8 Once when Zechariah’s division was on duty and he was serving as priest before God,(L) 9 he was chosen by lot,(M) according to the custom of the priesthood, to go into the temple of the Lord and burn incense.(N) 10 And when the time for the burning of incense came, all the assembled worshipers were praying outside.(O)
11 Then an angel(P) of the Lord appeared to him, standing at the right side of the altar of incense.(Q) 12 When Zechariah saw him, he was startled and was gripped with fear.(R) 13 But the angel said to him: “Do not be afraid,(S) Zechariah; your prayer has been heard. Your wife Elizabeth will bear you a son, and you are to call him John.(T) 14 He will be a joy and delight to you, and many will rejoice because of his birth,(U) 15 for he will be great in the sight of the Lord. He is never to take wine or other fermented drink,(V) and he will be filled with the Holy Spirit(W) even before he is born.(X) 16 He will bring back many of the people of Israel to the Lord their God. 17 And he will go on before the Lord,(Y) in the spirit and power of Elijah,(Z) to turn the hearts of the parents to their children(AA) and the disobedient to the wisdom of the righteous—to make ready a people prepared for the Lord.”(AB)
18 Zechariah asked the angel, “How can I be sure of this?(AC) I am an old man and my wife is well along in years.”(AD)
19 The angel said to him, “I am Gabriel.(AE) I stand in the presence of God, and I have been sent to speak to you and to tell you this good news. 20 And now you will be silent and not able to speak(AF) until the day this happens, because you did not believe my words, which will come true at their appointed time.”
21 Meanwhile, the people were waiting for Zechariah and wondering why he stayed so long in the temple. 22 When he came out, he could not speak to them. They realized he had seen a vision in the temple, for he kept making signs(AG) to them but remained unable to speak.
23 When his time of service was completed, he returned home. 24 After this his wife Elizabeth became pregnant and for five months remained in seclusion. 25 “The Lord has done this for me,” she said. “In these days he has shown his favor and taken away my disgrace(AH) among the people.”
The Birth of Jesus Foretold
26 In the sixth month of Elizabeth’s pregnancy, God sent the angel Gabriel(AI) to Nazareth,(AJ) a town in Galilee, 27 to a virgin pledged to be married to a man named Joseph,(AK) a descendant of David. The virgin’s name was Mary. 28 The angel went to her and said, “Greetings, you who are highly favored! The Lord is with you.”
29 Mary was greatly troubled at his words and wondered what kind of greeting this might be. 30 But the angel said to her, “Do not be afraid,(AL) Mary; you have found favor with God.(AM) 31 You will conceive and give birth to a son, and you are to call him Jesus.(AN) 32 He will be great and will be called the Son of the Most High.(AO) The Lord God will give him the throne of his father David,(AP) 33 and he will reign over Jacob’s descendants forever; his kingdom(AQ) will never end.”(AR)
34 “How will this be,” Mary asked the angel, “since I am a virgin?”
35 The angel answered, “The Holy Spirit will come on you,(AS) and the power of the Most High(AT) will overshadow you. So the holy one(AU) to be born will be called[b] the Son of God.(AV) 36 Even Elizabeth your relative is going to have a child(AW) in her old age, and she who was said to be unable to conceive is in her sixth month. 37 For no word from God will ever fail.”(AX)
38 “I am the Lord’s servant,” Mary answered. “May your word to me be fulfilled.” Then the angel left her.
Mary Visits Elizabeth
39 At that time Mary got ready and hurried to a town in the hill country of Judea,(AY) 40 where she entered Zechariah’s home and greeted Elizabeth. 41 When Elizabeth heard Mary’s greeting, the baby leaped in her womb, and Elizabeth was filled with the Holy Spirit.(AZ) 42 In a loud voice she exclaimed: “Blessed are you among women,(BA) and blessed is the child you will bear! 43 But why am I so favored, that the mother of my Lord(BB) should come to me? 44 As soon as the sound of your greeting reached my ears, the baby in my womb leaped for joy. 45 Blessed is she who has believed that the Lord would fulfill his promises to her!”
Mary’s Song(BC)
46 And Mary said:
“My soul glorifies the Lord(BD)
47 and my spirit rejoices in God my Savior,(BE)
48 for he has been mindful
of the humble state of his servant.(BF)
From now on all generations will call me blessed,(BG)
49 for the Mighty One has done great things(BH) for me—
holy is his name.(BI)
50 His mercy extends to those who fear him,
from generation to generation.(BJ)
51 He has performed mighty deeds with his arm;(BK)
he has scattered those who are proud in their inmost thoughts.(BL)
52 He has brought down rulers from their thrones
but has lifted up the humble.(BM)
53 He has filled the hungry with good things(BN)
but has sent the rich away empty.
54 He has helped his servant Israel,
remembering to be merciful(BO)
55 to Abraham and his descendants(BP) forever,
just as he promised our ancestors.”
56 Mary stayed with Elizabeth for about three months and then returned home.
The Birth of John the Baptist
57 When it was time for Elizabeth to have her baby, she gave birth to a son. 58 Her neighbors and relatives heard that the Lord had shown her great mercy, and they shared her joy.
59 On the eighth day they came to circumcise(BQ) the child, and they were going to name him after his father Zechariah, 60 but his mother spoke up and said, “No! He is to be called John.”(BR)
61 They said to her, “There is no one among your relatives who has that name.”
62 Then they made signs(BS) to his father, to find out what he would like to name the child. 63 He asked for a writing tablet, and to everyone’s astonishment he wrote, “His name is John.”(BT) 64 Immediately his mouth was opened and his tongue set free, and he began to speak,(BU) praising God. 65 All the neighbors were filled with awe, and throughout the hill country of Judea(BV) people were talking about all these things. 66 Everyone who heard this wondered about it, asking, “What then is this child going to be?” For the Lord’s hand was with him.(BW)
Zechariah’s Song
67 His father Zechariah was filled with the Holy Spirit(BX) and prophesied:(BY)
68 “Praise be to the Lord, the God of Israel,(BZ)
because he has come to his people and redeemed them.(CA)
69 He has raised up a horn[c](CB) of salvation for us
in the house of his servant David(CC)
70 (as he said through his holy prophets of long ago),(CD)
71 salvation from our enemies
and from the hand of all who hate us—
72 to show mercy to our ancestors(CE)
and to remember his holy covenant,(CF)
73 the oath he swore to our father Abraham:(CG)
74 to rescue us from the hand of our enemies,
and to enable us to serve him(CH) without fear(CI)
75 in holiness and righteousness(CJ) before him all our days.
76 And you, my child, will be called a prophet(CK) of the Most High;(CL)
for you will go on before the Lord to prepare the way for him,(CM)
77 to give his people the knowledge of salvation
through the forgiveness of their sins,(CN)
78 because of the tender mercy of our God,
by which the rising sun(CO) will come to us from heaven
79 to shine on those living in darkness
and in the shadow of death,(CP)
to guide our feet into the path of peace.”(CQ)
80 And the child grew and became strong in spirit[d];(CR) and he lived in the wilderness until he appeared publicly to Israel.
