Luke 1:67-80
Jubilee Bible 2000
67 ¶ And his father Zacharias was filled with the Holy Spirit and prophesied, saying,
68 Blessed be the Lord God of Israel, for he has visited and made redemption for his people
69 And has raised up a horn of saving health for us in the house of his servant David,
70 as he spoke by the mouth of the saints who from the beginning were his prophets;
71 salvation from our enemies and from the hand of all that hate us;
72 to fulfill mercy unto our fathers and remembering his holy covenant
73 of the oath which he made to our father Abraham,
74 that he would grant unto us, that without fear delivered out of the hand of our enemies, we might serve him
75 in holiness and righteousness before him all the days of our life.
76 And thou, child, shalt be called prophet of the Most High, for thou shalt go before the face of the Lord to prepare his ways,
77 giving knowledge of saving health unto his people for the remission of their sins
78 through the bowels of mercy of our God, whereby the dayspring from on high has visited us
79 to give light to those that dwell in darkness and in the shadow of death, to direct our feet into the way of peace.
80 And the child grew and was comforted of the Spirit and was in the deserts until the day of his showing unto Israel.

67 His father Zechariah was filled with the Holy Spirit(A) and prophesied:(B)
68 “Praise be to the Lord, the God of Israel,(C)
because he has come to his people and redeemed them.(D)
69 He has raised up a horn[a](E) of salvation for us
in the house of his servant David(F)
70 (as he said through his holy prophets of long ago),(G)
71 salvation from our enemies
and from the hand of all who hate us—
72 to show mercy to our ancestors(H)
and to remember his holy covenant,(I)
73 the oath he swore to our father Abraham:(J)
74 to rescue us from the hand of our enemies,
and to enable us to serve him(K) without fear(L)
75 in holiness and righteousness(M) before him all our days.
76 And you, my child, will be called a prophet(N) of the Most High;(O)
for you will go on before the Lord to prepare the way for him,(P)
77 to give his people the knowledge of salvation
through the forgiveness of their sins,(Q)
78 because of the tender mercy of our God,
by which the rising sun(R) will come to us from heaven
79 to shine on those living in darkness
and in the shadow of death,(S)
to guide our feet into the path of peace.”(T)
80 And the child grew and became strong in spirit[b];(U) and he lived in the wilderness until he appeared publicly to Israel.
