序言（參(A)
1 尊敬的提阿非羅先生，因為有許多人，已經把在我們中間成就了的事， 2 按照起初親眼看見的傳道人所傳給我們的，編著成書； 3 我已經把這些事從頭考查過，認為也應該按著次序寫給你， 4 讓你曉得所學到的道理，都是確實的。
天使預言施洗約翰出生
5 猶太王希律在位的日子，亞比雅班裡有一個祭司，名叫撒迦利亞，他妻子是亞倫的後代，名叫以利沙伯。 6 他們在 神面前都是義人，遵行主的一切誡命規條，無可指摘， 7 只是沒有孩子，因為以利沙伯不生育，二人又都上了年紀。
8 有一次，撒迦利亞在 神面前按著班次執行祭司的職務， 9 照祭司的慣例抽中了籤，進入主的聖殿燒香。 10 燒香的時候，眾人都在外面祈禱。 11 有主的使者站在香壇右邊，向他顯現。 12 撒迦利亞一見就驚慌起來，十分害怕。 13 天使說：“撒迦利亞，不要怕，因為你的祈求已蒙垂聽，你妻子以利沙伯要給你生一個兒子，你要給他起名叫約翰。 14 你必歡喜快樂，許多人因他出生，也必喜樂。 15 他在主面前要被尊為大，淡酒濃酒都不喝，未出母腹就被聖靈充滿。 16 他要使許多以色列人轉向主他們的 神。 17 他必有以利亞的靈和能力，行在主的前面，叫父親的心轉向兒女，叫悖逆的轉向義人的意念，為主安排那預備好了的人民。” 18 撒迦利亞對天使說：“我怎麼能知道這事呢？我已經老了，我妻子也上了年紀。” 19 天使回答：“我是站在 神面前的加百列，奉差遣向你說話，報給你這好消息。 20 看吧！到了時候我的話必要應驗；因為你不信我的話，你必成為啞巴，直到這些事成就的那一天，才能說話。”
21 眾人等候撒迦利亞；因他在聖殿裡遲遲不出來，覺得奇怪。 22 等到他出來，卻不能講話，竟成了啞巴，不斷地向他們打手式，他們就知道他在聖殿裡見了異象。 23 供職的日子滿了，他就回家去。 24 過了幾天，他妻子以利沙伯懷了孕，隱藏了五個月，說： 25 “主在眷顧的日子，這樣看待我，要把我在人間的羞恥除掉。”
天使預言耶穌降生
26 到了第六個月，天使加百列奉 神差遣，往加利利的拿撒勒城去， 27 到了一個童貞女那裡，她已經和大衛家一個名叫約瑟的人訂了婚，童貞女的名字是馬利亞。 28 天使進去，對她說：“恭喜！蒙大恩的女子，主與你同在！” 29 她卻因這話驚慌起來，反覆思想這樣祝賀是甚麼意思。 30 天使說：“馬利亞，不要怕！因你已從 神那裡蒙了恩。 31 你將懷孕生子，要給他起名叫耶穌。 32 他將要被尊為大，稱為至高者的兒子，主 神要把他祖大衛的王位賜給他， 33 他要作王統治雅各家，直到永遠，他的國沒有窮盡。” 34 馬利亞對天使說：“我還沒有出嫁（“我還沒有出嫁”原文作“我不認識男人”），怎能有這事呢？” 35 天使回答：“聖靈要臨到你，至高者的能力要覆庇你，因此那將要出生的聖者，必稱為 神的兒子。 36 你看，你親戚以利沙伯，被稱為不生育的，在老年也懷了男胎，現在已是第六個月了， 37 因為在 神沒有一件事是不可能的。” 38 馬利亞說：“我是主的婢女，願照你的話成就在我身上！”天使就離開她去了。
馬利亞往見以利沙伯
39 後來，馬利亞就起身，急忙向山地去，來到猶大的一座城， 40 進了撒迦利亞的家，向以利沙伯問安。 41 以利沙伯一聽見馬利亞的問安，腹中的胎兒就跳動，以利沙伯也被聖靈充滿， 42 就高聲說：“你在女子中是有福的！你腹中的胎兒也是有福的！ 43 我主的母親竟然到我這裡來。這事怎會臨到我呢？ 44 你看，你問安的聲音一進我的耳朵，我腹中的胎兒就歡喜跳躍。 45 這相信主傳給她的話必要成就的女子是有福的。”
馬利亞尊主為大（參(B)
46 馬利亞說：
“我心尊主為大，
47 我靈以 神我的救主為樂，
48 因為他垂顧他婢女的卑微，
看哪！今後萬代都要稱我為有福。
49 全能者為我行了大事，他的名為聖；
50 他的憐憫世世代代歸與敬畏他的人。
51 他用膀臂施展大能，
驅散心裡妄想的狂傲人。
52 他使有權能的失位，
叫卑微的升高，
53 讓飢餓的得飽美食，
使富足的空手回去。
54 他扶助了他的僕人以色列，
為要記念他的憐憫，
55 正如他向我們列祖所說的，
恩待亞伯拉罕和他的後裔，直到永遠。”
56 馬利亞和以利沙伯同住約有三個月，就回家去了。
施洗約翰出生
57 以利沙伯的產期到了，生了一個兒子。 58 鄰里親戚，聽見主向她大施憐憫，都和她一同歡樂。 59 到了第八天，他們來給孩子行割禮，要照他父親的名字，叫他撒迦利亞。 60 但他母親說：“不可，要叫他約翰。” 61 他們說：“你親族裡沒有叫這名字的。” 62 他們就向孩子的父親打手式，看他要叫他甚麼。 63 他要了一塊寫字版，寫上說：“他的名字是約翰。”眾人都希奇。 64 撒迦利亞的口舌立刻開了，就出聲稱頌 神。 65 住在周圍的人都害怕，這一切事傳遍了整個猶太山地， 66 凡聽見的就把這些事放在心裡，說：“這孩子將會成為怎樣的人呢？因為主的手與他同在。”
撒迦利亞的預言
67 他的父親撒迦利亞被聖靈充滿，預言說：
68 “主，以色列的 神，是應當稱頌的，
因他眷顧自己的子民，施行救贖，
69 在他僕人大衛家中，
為我們興起救恩的角，
70 正如主自古以來藉聖先知口中所說的，
71 救我們脫離仇敵，和恨我們的人的手；
72 向我們列祖施憐憫，記念他的聖約，
73 就是他對我們祖先亞伯拉罕所起的誓，
74 把我們從仇敵手中救拔出來，
叫我們可以坦然無懼，用聖潔公義，
75 在他面前一生一世敬拜他。
76 孩子啊，你要稱為至高者的先知，
因為你要行在主的面前，預備他的路，
77 使他的子民，因罪得赦，就知道救恩。
78 因我們 神的憐憫，
使清晨的陽光從高天臨到我們，
79 光照那坐在黑暗中死蔭裡的人，
引導我們的腳，走上平安的路。”
80 這孩子漸漸長大，心靈健壯，住在曠野，直到他在以色列人中公開露面的日子。

1 1-2 提阿非罗大人，已经有很多人根据最初的目击者和传道者给我们的口述，把我们中间发生的事记载下来。 3 我把一切事情从头至尾仔细查考之后，决定按次序写出来， 4 使你知道自己所学的道都是有真凭实据的。
天使预告施洗者约翰出生
5 犹太王希律执政期间，亚比雅的班里有位祭司名叫撒迦利亚，他妻子伊丽莎白是亚伦的后裔。 6 夫妻二人遵行主的一切诫命和条例，无可指责，在上帝眼中是义人。 7 但他们没有孩子，因为伊丽莎白不能生育，二人又年纪老迈。
8 有一天，轮到撒迦利亚他们那一班祭司当值， 9 他们按照祭司的规矩抽签，抽中撒迦利亚到主的殿里去烧香。 10 众百姓都在外面祷告。 11 那时，主的天使在香坛的右边向撒迦利亚显现， 12 撒迦利亚见了，惊慌害怕起来。
13 天使对他说：“撒迦利亚，不要害怕，你的祷告已蒙垂听。你的妻子伊丽莎白要为你生一个儿子，你要给他取名叫约翰。 14 你必欢喜快乐，许多人也会因为他的诞生而欣喜雀跃， 15 因为他将成为主伟大的仆人。他必滴酒不沾，并且在母腹里就被圣灵充满。 16 他将劝导许多以色列人回心转意，归顺主——他们的上帝。 17 他将以先知以利亚的心志和能力做主的先锋，使父亲的心转向儿女，使叛逆的人回转、顺从义人的智慧，为主预备合用的子民。”
18 撒迦利亚对天使说：“我已经老了，我的妻子也上了年纪，我如何知道这是真的呢？” 19 天使回答说：“我是侍立在上帝面前的加百列，奉命来向你报这喜讯。 20 我说的这些话到时候必定应验。但因为你不肯相信我的话，所以这事成就以前，你将变成哑巴，不能说话。”
21 人们在等候撒迦利亚，见他在圣殿里迟迟不出来，都感到奇怪。 22 后来他出来了，却成了哑巴，不能说话，只能打手势，大家意识到他在圣殿里看见了异象。 23 撒迦利亚供职期满，就回家去了。 24 不久，伊丽莎白果然怀了孕，她有五个月闭门不出。 25 她说：“主真是眷顾我，除掉了我不生育的羞耻。”
天使预告耶稣降生
26 伊丽莎白怀孕六个月的时候，天使加百列又奉上帝的命令到加利利的拿撒勒， 27 去见一位童贞女，她叫玛丽亚。玛丽亚已经和大卫的后裔约瑟订了婚。
28 天使到了玛丽亚那里，说：“恭喜你，蒙大恩的女子，主与你同在！”
29 玛丽亚听了觉得十分困惑，反复思想这话的意思。
30 天使对她说：“玛丽亚，不要害怕，你在上帝面前已经蒙恩了。 31 你要怀孕生子，并给祂取名叫耶稣。 32 祂伟大无比，将被称为至高者的儿子，主上帝要把祂祖先大卫的王位赐给祂。 33 祂要永远统治以色列[a]，祂的国度永无穷尽。”
34 玛丽亚对天使说：“这怎么可能呢？我还是童贞女。”
35 天使回答说：“圣灵要临到你身上，至高者的能力要荫庇你，所以你要生的那圣婴必称为上帝的儿子。 36 看啊，你的亲戚伊丽莎白年纪老迈，一向不能生育，现在已经怀男胎六个月了。 37 因为上帝无所不能。”
38 玛丽亚说：“我是主的婢女，愿你所说的话在我身上成就。”于是天使离开了她。
玛丽亚看望伊丽莎白
39 不久，玛丽亚便动身赶到犹太山区的一座城， 40 进了撒迦利亚的家，向伊丽莎白请安。 41 伊丽莎白一听见玛丽亚的问安，腹中的胎儿便跳动起来，伊丽莎白被圣灵充满， 42 高声喊着说：“在妇女中你是最蒙福的！你腹中的孩子也是蒙福的！ 43 我主的母亲来探望我，我怎么敢当呢？ 44 我一听到你问安的声音，腹中的孩子就欢喜跳动。 45 相信主所说的话必实现的女子有福了！”
46 玛丽亚说：
“我的心尊主为大，
47 我的灵因我的救主上帝而欢喜，
48 因祂眷顾我这卑微的婢女，
从今以后，
世世代代都要称我是有福的。
49 全能者在我身上行了奇事，
祂的名是神圣的。
50 祂怜悯敬畏祂的人，
直到世世代代。
51 祂伸出臂膀，施展大能，
驱散心骄气傲的人。
52 祂使当权者失势，
叫谦卑的人升高。
53 祂使饥饿的得饱足，
叫富足的空手而去。
54 祂扶助了自己的仆人以色列，
55 祂要施怜悯给亚伯拉罕和他的子孙，
直到永远，
正如祂对我们祖先的应许。”
56 玛丽亚和伊丽莎白同住了约三个月，便回家去了。
施洗者约翰出生
57 伊丽莎白的产期到了，生下一个儿子。 58 亲戚和邻居听见主向她大施怜悯，都和她一同欢乐。 59 到了第八天，他们来给孩子行割礼，想照他父亲的名字给他取名叫撒迦利亚。
60 但伊丽莎白说：“不！要叫他约翰。”
61 他们说：“你们家族中没有人用这个名字啊！” 62 他们便向他父亲打手势，问他要给孩子起什么名字。 63 撒迦利亚就要了一块写字板，写上：“他的名字叫约翰。”大家看了都很惊奇。 64 就在那时，撒迦利亚恢复了说话的能力，便开口赞美上帝。 65 住在周围的人都很惧怕，这消息很快就传遍了整个犹太山区。 66 听见的人都在想：“这孩子将来会怎样呢？因为主与他同在。”
撒迦利亚的预言
67 孩子的父亲撒迦利亚被圣灵充满，便预言说：
68 “主——以色列的上帝当受称颂，
因祂眷顾、救赎了自己的子民，
69 在祂仆人大卫的家族中为我们兴起了一位大能的拯救者[b]，
70 正如祂从亘古借着祂圣先知们的口所说的。
71 祂要从仇敌和一切恨我们之人手中拯救我们。
72 祂怜悯我们的祖先，
持守自己的圣约，
73 就是祂对我们的先祖亚伯拉罕所起的誓，
74 要把我们从仇敌手中拯救出来，
75 使我们一生一世在圣洁和公义中坦然无惧地事奉祂。
76 至于你，我的儿子啊！
你将要被称为至高者的先知，
因为你要走在主的前面，
为祂预备道路，
77 使百姓因罪得赦免而明白救恩的真谛。
78 由于上帝的怜悯，
清晨的曙光必从高天普照我们，
79 照亮那些生活在黑暗中和死亡阴影下的人，
带领我们走平安的道路。”
80 那孩子渐渐长大，心灵强健，在向以色列人公开露面之前，一直住在旷野。

1 Vi-bahlt (since) many Messianic Sofrim have attempted to compile a sefer, a historical narrative, about the momentous events that have been fulfilled among us,
2 Just as these [masoret haShluchim] have been handed down to us by those who from HaReshit [of the Besuras HaGeulah] were edei reiyah (eyewitnesses) and mesharetim [ministers] of the Dvar Hashem,
3 I thought it expedient also, having done an iyun (investigative research), accurately and carefully being meayen (engaged in research) in every source and making a medakdeke (pain-stakingly thorough) investigation of every aspect from HaReshit (the Beginning), to write for you and to mesader (arrange, place in succession) an orderly account, most noble Theophilus,
4 That you may have daas of HaEmes regarding the Divrei Moshiach about which you took shiurim (lessons).
5 At the time of Herod king of Yehudah, there was a certain kohen by the name Zecharyah, who belonged to the Aviyah division. His isha was of the banot Aharon, name of Elisheva. [DIVREY HAYAMIM ALEF 24:10]
6 And they were both tzaddikim before Hashem, walking a derech tamim in all the mitzvot and chukkim of the Torah of Adoneinu. [BERESHIS 6:9; DEVARIM 5:33; MELACHIM ALEF 9:4]
7 But they had no ben, because Elisheva was barren, and they were both advanced in their yamim.
8 And it came to pass in the performance of his avodas kodesh sherut as a kohen before Hashem in the appointed order of his division, [DIVREY HAYAMIM ALEF 24:19; DIVREY HAYAMIM BAIS 8:14]
9 According to the minhag (custom) of the kehunah, Zecharyah was chosen by lot to enter the Beis Hamikdash and to offer ketoret (incense). [SHEMOT 30:7,8; DIVREY HAYAMIM ALEF 23:13; DIVREY HAYAMIM BAIS 29:11; TEHILLIM 141:2]
10 And when the hour of the offering of the ketoret came, all the multitude were davening outside. [VAYIKRA 16:17]
11 And there appeared to Zecharyah a malach Hashem, standing on the right side of the Mizbeach of ketoret. [SHEMOT 30:1-10]
12 And, seeing the malach, Zecharyah was terrified, and pachad (fear) fell on him. [SHOFETIM 6:22,23; 13:22]
13 But the malach said to him, Do not have pachad (fear), Zecharyah. Your tefillah (prayer) was heard and your isha, Elisheva, will bear a ben to you and you will call his shem Yochanan.
14 And he will be a simcha to you and sasson (joy), and there will be sasson rav (great joy) at his huledet (birth).
15 And he will be gadol before Hashem, and he will not drink yayin or strong drink, and he will be filled with the Ruach Hakodesh from the womb of his Em (mother), [BAMIDBAR 6:3; VAYIKRA 10:9; SHOFETIM 13:4; YIRMEYAH 1:5]
16 And many of the Bnei Yisroel he will turn back in teshuva to Hashem Eloheihem.
17 And he will go forth before Adonoi in the ruach (spirit) and koach (power) of Eliyahu HaNavi, VEHESHIV LEV AVOT AL BANIM (And he will turn the heart of the fathers to the children MALACHI 3:24 [4:6]) and those without mishmaat (obedience) he will turn to the chochmah of the tzaddikim to prepare for Adonoi an Am (People) having been made ready. [MALACHI 4:5,6]
18 And Zecharyah said to the malach, Just how will I have daas that this is so? For I am old and my isha is advanced in her yamim (days). [BERESHIS 15:8; 17:17]
19 And in reply, the malach said to Zecharyah, I am Gavriel, I stand before Hashem. And I was sent to speak to you and to announce these things to you. [DANIEL 8:16; 9:21]
20 And hinei! You will be illem (mute) and not be able to speak, until the yom (day) when these things come to pass, because you did not have emunah in my dvarim (words), which will be fulfilled in their time. [SHEMOT 4:11; YECHEZKEL 3:26]
21 And the people were expecting Zecharyah and they were bewildered at his delay in the Beis HaMikdash.
22 And when he came out, he was illem (mute) and not able to speak to them, and they had daas that he had seen a chazon in the Heikhal. He kept motioning to them and he remained illem.
23 And it came about as the yamim of his sherut (service in the Beis HaMikdash) as a kohen were fulfilled, he went to his bais (house).
24 And after these yamim, Elisheva, his isha, became with child, and she kept herself in hitbodedut for chamesh chodashim, saying,
25 Hashem has done this for me. In these yamim he looked with Chen vChesed (favor and mercy, loving kindness) on me to take away my reproach among Bnei Adam. [BERESHIS 30:23; YESHAYAH 4:1]
26 Now in the chodesh shishi the malach Gavriel was sent from Hashem to a shtetl in the Galil called Natzeret,
27 To a betulah (virgin) given in erusin (betrothal, engagement) to an ish from the Beis Dovid named Yosef [ben Dovid], and the shem of the almah was Miryam.
28 And when the malach approached her, he said, Shalom, favored one! Hashem is with you!
29 But she was greatly perplexed at the message, and kept pondering what sort of Shalom greeting this might be.
30 And the malach said to her, Do not have pachad (fear), Miryam, for you have found chen before Hashem.
31 And in your womb you will conceive and bear BEN [YESHAYAH 7:14] and you will call SHMO YEHOSHUA. [ZECHARYAH 6:11-12]
32 He will be gadol (great) and will be called Ben HaElyon (Son of the Most High). Adonoi Elohim will give him the kisse Dovid Aviv,
33 And he will rule over the Beis Yaakov Olam vaed, and his Malchut will never come to an end. [SHMUEL BAIS 7:16; TEHILLIM 89:3,4; YESHAYAH 9:7; YIRMEYAH 33:17; DANIEL 2:44; 7:14,27; MICHOH 4:7]
34 But Miryam said to the malach, How will this be, vibahlt (since) I do not have daas of an ish?
35 And in reply, the malach said to her, The Ruach Hakodesh will come upon you and the gevurah of HaElyon will overshadow you. Therefore, also, the one being born will be called HaKadosh (The Holy One), Ben HaElohim.
36 And Elisheva your krovah also has conceived a ben in her old age, and this chodesh is hashishi (the sixth) for her who is called barren.
37 For nothing will be impossible with Hashem.
38 And Miryam said, Hinei! I am the shifcha of Hashem. May it be done to me according to your dvar. And the malach departed from her.
39 And in those yamim, Miryam got up and traveled into the hill country with haste to a shtetl of Yehudah.
40 And she entered into the bais of Zecharyah and gave Birkat Shalom greetings to Elisheva.
41 And it came about, when Elisheva heard the Birkat Shalom of Miryam, the yeled leaped in Elisheva’s womb, and she was filled with the Ruach Hakodesh.
42 And Elisheva cried out with a kol gadol (loud voice) and said, Brucha at miNashim (Blessed art thou among women), and baruch (blessed is) the pri (fruit) of your womb! [SHOFETIM 5:24]
43 And why has this happened to me that the Em Adoni should come to me?
44 For hinei! When the sound of your Birkat Shalom came into my ears, the yeled leaped with simcha in my womb.
45 And ashrey is the one having had emunah that there will be a fulfillment to the things having been spoken to Miryam by Hashem.
46 And Miryam said, My soul doth magnify Hashem [TEHILLIM 34:2,3]
47 ALATZ LIBI BAHASHEM (My heart rejoices in Hashem SHMUEL ALEF 2:1) and my neshamah exalts in Hashem Yishi (G-d my savior, Moshi’a) CHABAKUK 3:18, [TEHILLIM 18:46; YESHAYAH 17:10; 61:10]
48 For HASHEM VISHAFAL YIREH (TEHILLIM 138:6) looked upon the humble state of His shifcha (bond maid) for from now on kol hadorot ishruni (all generations will call me happy, BERESHIS 30:13) [TEHILLIM 138:6]
49 For Shaddai (the Almighty) did gedolot for me and Kadosh is Shmo, [TEHILLIM 111:9]
50 And the chesed of Hashem is DOR VDOR [TEHILLIM 100:5] to those with yirat Shomayim. [SHEMOT 20:6; TEHILLIM 103:17]
51 Hashem has done niflaot (wonders) with his zeroa [arm, YESHAYAH 53:1]. He scattered those who in the machshavot (thoughts) of their levavot are the Gaayonim (the Haughty ones).
52 He brought down shalitim (rulers) from their kisot (thrones) and lifted up the Anavim (Humble),
53 The ones hungering, Hashem made full of tov, and the ashirim he sent away empty. [TEHILLIM 107:9]
54 Hashem helped his servant Yisroel, in remembrance of his rachamim (mercy),
55 Just as Hashem spoke to Avoteinu, to Avraham Avinu and his Zera ad Olam.
56 And Miryam remained with Elisheva about shlosha chodashim, and then Miryam returned to her bais.
57 Now when the time of Elisheva to give birth was fulfilled, she bore a ben.
58 And Elisheva’s shchenim (neighbors) and krovim (relatives) heard that Adoneinu greatly demonstrated his rachamim to her, and they had much simcha with her.
59 And it came about on the yom hashemini (the eighth day) they came for the bris milah of the yeled, and they were calling him by the name of his abba, Zecharyah.
60 And in reply, his Em said: Lo, but he will be called Yochanan.
61 And they said to her, There is no one from your krovim who is called by this shem.
62 And they began motioning to the yeled’s abba to find out what shem he wanted to give him.
63 And having asked for a luach (tablet), Zecharyah wrote, saying, Yochanan shmo. And everyone was amazed.
64 And Zecharyah’s mouth was loosed at once and the lashon of him, and he began speaking, saying Baruch Hashem!
65 And upon all their shchenim (neighbors) came much yirat Shomayim, and in the entire hill country of Yehudah everyone was shmoozing about these matters.
66 All who heard these things pondered them in their levavot, saying, What then will this yeled become? For, indeed, the yad Hashem was on him. [BERESHIS 39:2]
67 And Zecharyah, his abba, was filled with the Ruach Hakodesh and brought forth a dvar nevuah, saying,
68 BARUCH HASHEM ELOHEI YISROEL, for Adonoi has visited his Am Berit and accomplished a pedut kofer ransom for the Geulah of his people.
69 And Hashem raised up a Keren Yeshuah (Horn of Salvation), a mighty Moshia, for us in the Beis Dovid, His eved,
70 Just as Hashem spoke through the mouth of His neviim hakedoshim meOlam (holy prophets from long ago), [YIRMEYAH 23:5]
71 That we should have Yeshuat Eloheinu from our oyvim (enemies) and from the hand of all the ones who regard us with sinas chinom (baseless hatred).
72 Thus Hashem has demonstrated his rachamim (mercy) to Avoteinu (our Fathers) and has remembered his Brit HaKodesh (Holy Covenant), [MICHOH 7:20; TEHILLIM 105:8,9; 106:45; YECHEZKEL 16:60]
73 The Brit HaShevuah (the Covenant of the oath) which He swore to Avraham Avinu to grant us, [BERESHIS 22:16-18]
74 Having been delivered from the yad haoyvim (hand of enemies) of us to serve Hashem fearlessly,
75 In kedushah (holiness) and tzedek (righteousness) before Him all our yamim (days).
76 And you also, yeled (child), will be called Navi HaElyon (Prophet of the Most High); for you will go LIFNEI HAADON (before the L-rd) to prepare the DERECH HASHEM (The Way of the L-rd) [MALACHI 3:1; YESHAYAH 40:3]
77 To give daas (knowledge) of Yeshuat Eloheinu (the Salvation of our G-d) to Hashem’s Am Berit (People of the Covenant) by the selichat (forgiveness) of their avon (sin) [YIRMEYAH 31:34]
78 Through the rav rachamim of Eloheinu (through the great mercy of our G-d), by which has visited us the rising SHEMESH [Sun, Moshiach] from Shomayim, [MALACHI 3:20 (4:2)]
79 To appear to the ones in CHOSHECH (darkness) and YOSHVEI BERETZ TZALMAVET (sitting in the land of the shadow of death), to direct our feet into the Derech Shalom. [Psa 107:14; Isa 9:1-2; 59:9]
80 And the yeled was growing and was being given chizzuk (strengthening) in the Ruach Hakodesh, and Yochanan was in the desolate places until the day of his hisgalus (revelation, manifestation) to Yisroel.

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.
