      Book 42 Luke

      Table of Contents

      001:001 Seeing that many have attempted to draw up a narrative

      of the facts which are received with full assurance among us

      001:002 on the authority of those who were from the beginning eye-witnesses

      and were devoted to the service of the divine Message,

      001:003 it has seemed right to me also, after careful investigation of the facts from their commencement, to write for you, most noble Theophilus, a connected account,

      001:004 that you may fully know the truth of the things which you have been taught by word of mouth.

      001:005 There was in the time of Herod, the king of Judaea, a priest of the name of Zechariah, belonging to the class of Abijah. He had a wife who was a descendant of Aaron, and her name was Elizabeth.

      001:006 They were both of them upright before God, blamelessly obeying

      all the Lord's precepts and ordinances.

      001:007 But they had no child, because Elizabeth was barren;

      and both of them were far advanced in life.

      001:008 Now while he was doing priestly duty before God in the prescribed

      course of his class,

      001:009 it fell to his lot—according to the custom of the priesthood—

      to go into the Sanctuary of the Lord and burn the incense;

      001:010 and the whole multitude of the people were outside praying,

      at the hour of incense.

      001:011 Then there appeared to him an angel of the Lord standing

      on the right side of the altar of incense;

      001:012 and Zechariah on seeing him was agitated and terrified.

      001:013 But the angel said to him, "Do not be afraid, Zechariah, for your petition has been heard: and your wife Elizabeth will bear you a son, and you are to call his name John.

      001:014 Gladness and exultant joy shall be yours, and many will rejoice over his birth.

      001:015 For he will be great in the sight of the Lord; no wine or fermented drink shall he ever drink; but he will be filled with the Holy Spirit from the very hour of his birth.

      001:016 Many of the descendants of Israel will he turn to the Lord their God;

      001:017 and he will be His forerunner in the spirit and power of Elijah, to turn fathers' hearts to the children, and cause the rebellious to walk in the wisdom of the upright, to make a people perfectly ready for the lord."

      001:018 By what proof, asked Zechariah, shall I know this? For I am an old man, and my wife is far advanced in years.

      001:019 I am Gabriel, who stand in the presence of God,

      answered the angel, "and I have been sent to talk with you

      and tell you this good news.

      001:020 And now you will be dumb and unable to speak until the day

      when this has taken place; because you did not believe my words—

      words which will be fulfilled at their appointed time."

      001:021 Meanwhile the people were waiting for Zechariah, and were surprised that he stayed so long in the Sanctuary.

      001:022 When, however, he came out, he was unable to speak to them; and they knew that he must have seen a vision in the Sanctuary; but he kept making signs to them and continued dumb.

      001:023 When his days of service were at an end, he went to his home;

      001:024 and in course of time his wife Elizabeth conceived, and kept

      herself secluded five months.

      001:025 Thus has the Lord dealt with me, she said, "now that He has

      graciously taken away my reproach among men."

      001:026 Now in the sixth month the angel Gabriel was sent from God

      to a town in Galilee called Nazareth,

      001:027 to a maiden betrothed to a man of the name of Joseph,

      a descendant of David. The maiden's name was Mary.

      001:028 So Gabriel went into the house and said to her, "Joy be to you,

      favoured one! the Lord is with you."

      001:029 She was greatly agitated at his words, and wondered what such

      a greeting meant.

      001:030 But the angel said, "Do not be frightened, Mary, for you

      have found favour with God.

      001:031 You will conceive in your womb and bear a son; and you are

      to call His name JESUS.

      001:032 He will be great and He will be called `Son of the Most High.'

      And the Lord God will give Him the throne of His forefather David;

      001:033 and He will be King over the House of Jacob for the Ages,

      and of His Kingdom there will be no end."

      001:034 How can this be, Mary replied, seeing that I have no husband?

      001:035 The angel answered, "The Holy Spirit will come upon you, and the power of the Most High will overshadow you; and for this reason your holy offspring will be called `the Son of God.'

      001:036 And see, your relative Elizabeth—she also has conceived a son in her old age; and this is the sixth month with her who was called barren.

      001:037 For no promise from God will be impossible of fulfilment."

      001:038 I am the Lord's maidservant, Mary replied; "may it be with me

      in accordance with your words!" And then the angel left her.

      001:039 Not long after this, Mary rose up and went in haste into the hill

      country to a town in Judah.

      001:040 Here she came to the house of Zechariah and greeted Elizabeth;

      001:041 and as soon as Elizabeth heard Mary's greeting, the babe leapt

      within her. And Elizabeth was filled with the Holy Spirit,

      001:042 and uttered a loud cry of joy. Blest among women are you,

      she said, "and the offspring of your body is blest!

      001:043 But why is this honour done me, that the mother of my Lord

      should come to me?

      001:044 For, the moment your greeting reached my ears, the babe within

      me leapt for joy.

      001:045 And blessed is she who has believed, for the word spoken

      to her from the Lord shall be fulfilled."

      001:046 Then Mary said: "My soul extols the Lord,

      001:047 And my spirit triumphs in God my Saviour;

      001:048 Because He has not turned from His maidservant in her lowly position;

      For from this time forward all generations will account me happy,

      001:049 Because the mighty One has done great things for me—

      Holy is His name!—

      001:050 And His compassion is, generation after generation, Upon those

      who fear Him.

      001:051 He has manifested His supreme strength. He has scattered

      those who were haughty in the thoughts of their hearts.

      001:052 He has cast monarchs down from their thrones, And exalted men

      of low estate.

      001:053 The hungry He has satisfied with choice gifts, But the rich

      He has sent empty-handed away.

      001:054 His servant Israel He has helped, Remembering His compassion—

      001:055 In fulfillment of His promises to our forefathers—For Abraham

      and his posterity for ever."

      001:056 So Mary stayed with Elizabeth about three months,

      and then returned home.

      001:057 Now when Elizabeth's full time was come, she gave birth to a son;

      001:058 and her neighbours and relatives heard how the Lord had had

      great compassion on her; and they rejoiced with her.

      001:059 And on the eighth day they came to circumcise the child,

      and were going to call him Zechariah, after his father.

      001:060 His mother, however, said, No, he is to be called John.

      001:061 There is not one of your family, they said, who has that name.

      001:062 They asked his father by signs what he wished him to be called.

      001:063 So he asked for a writing-tablet, and wrote, His name is John.

      And they all wondered.

      001:064 Instantly his mouth and his tongue were set free, and he began

      to speak and bless God.

      001:065 And all who lived round about
