Luke 1:21-23

New Testament for Everyone

²¹ Meanwhile, the people were waiting for Zechariah, and were surprised that he was taking such a long time in the sanctuary. ²² But when he came out he couldn’t speak to them, and they understood that he had seen a vision in the sanctuary. He made gestures to them, but remained speechless.

²³ So, when the days of his priestly service were complete, he went back home.
