76 And you, child, will be called (A)the prophet of (B)the Most High;
    for (C)you will go before the Lord to prepare his ways,
77 to give knowledge of salvation to his people
    (D)in the forgiveness of their sins,
78 because of the (E)tender mercy of our God,
    whereby (F)the sunrise shall (G)visit us[a] (H)from on high
79 to (I)give light to (J)those who sit in darkness and in the shadow of death,
    to guide our feet into (K)the way of (L)peace.”
