´ª 1:1 Many have undertaken to draw up an account of the things that
have been fulfilled among us,
´ª 1:2 just as they were handed down to us by those who from the first
were eyewitnesses and servants of the word.
´ª 1:3 Therefore, since I myself have carefully investigated everything
from the beginning, it seemed good also to me t o write an orderly account
for you, most excellent Theophilus,
´ª 1:4 so that you may know the certainty of the things you have been
taught.

´ª 1:5 In the time of Herod king of Judea there was a priest named
Zechariah, who belonged to the priestly division of Abijah; his wife Elizabeth
was also a descendant of Aaron.
´ª 1:6 Both of them were upright in the sight of God, observing all
the Lord's commandments and regulations blamelessly .
´ª 1:7 But they had no children, because Elizabeth was barren; and
they were both well along in years.
´ª 1:8 Once when Zechariah's division was on duty and he was serving
as priest before God,
´ª 1:9 he was chosen by lot, according to the custom of the priesthood,
to go into the temple of the Lord and burn ince nse.
´ª 1:10 And when the time for the burning of incense came, all the
assembled worshipers were praying outside.
´ª 1:11 Then an angel of the Lord appeared to him, standing at the
right side of the altar of incense.
´ª 1:12 When Zechariah saw him, he was startled and was gripped with
fear.
´ª 1:13 But the angel said to him: "Do not be afraid, Zechariah; your
prayer has been heard. Your wife Elizabeth w ill bear you a son, and you
are to give him the name John.
´ª 1:14 He will be a joy and delight to you, and many will rejoice
because of his birth,
´ª 1:15 for he will be great in the sight of the Lord. He is never
to take wine or other fermented drink, and he will b e filled with the
Holy Spirit even from birth.
´ª 1:16 Many of the people of Israel will he bring back to the Lord
their God.
´ª 1:17 And he will go on before the Lord, in the spirit and power
of Elijah, to turn the hearts of the fathers to thei r children and the
disobedient to the wisdom of the righteous--to make ready a people prepared
for the Lord."
´ª 1:18 Zechariah asked the angel, "How can I be sure of this? I am
an old man and my wife is well along in years. "
´ª 1:19 The angel answered, "I am Gabriel. I stand in the presence
of God, and I have been sent to speak to you an d to tell you this good
news.
´ª 1:20 And now you will be silent and not able to speak until the
day this happens, because you did not believe my wor ds, which will come
true at their proper time."
´ª 1:21 Meanwhile, the people were waiting for Zechariah and wondering
why he stayed so long in the temple.
´ª 1:22 When he came out, he could not speak to them. They realized
he had seen a vision in the temple, for he kept mak ing signs to them but
remained unable to speak.
´ª 1:23 When his time of service was completed, he returned home.
´ª 1:24 After this his wife Elizabeth became pregnant and for five
months remained in seclusion.
´ª 1:25 "The Lord has done this for me," she said. "In these days he
has shown his favor and taken away my disgrace among the people."

´ª 1:26 In the sixth month, God sent the angel Gabriel to Nazareth,
a town in Galilee,
´ª 1:27 to a virgin pledged to be married to a man named Joseph, a
descendant of David. The virgin's name was Mary.
´ª 1:28 The angel went to her and said, "Greetings, you who are highly
favored! The Lord is with you."
´ª 1:29 Mary was greatly troubled at his words and wondered what kind
of greeting this might be.
´ª 1:30 But the angel said to her, "Do not be afraid, Mary, you have
found favor with God.
´ª 1:31 You will be with child and give birth to a son, and you are
to give him the name Jesus.
´ª 1:32 He will be great and will be called the Son of the Most High.
The Lord God will give him the throne of his fath er David,
´ª 1:33 and he will reign over the house of Jacob forever; his kingdom
will never end."
´ª 1:34 "How will this be," Mary asked the angel, "since I am a virgin?"
´ª 1:35 The angel answered, "The Holy Spirit will come upon you, and
the power of the Most High will overshadow yo u. So the holy one to be
born will be called the Son of God.
´ª 1:36 Even Elizabeth your relative is going to have a child in her
old age, and she who was said to be barren is in h er sixth month.
´ª 1:37 For nothing is impossible with God."
´ª 1:38 "I am the Lord's servant," Mary answered. "May it be to me
as you have said." Then the ange l left her.
´ª1:39 ¸¶¸®¾ÆÀÇ ¿¤¸®»çºª ¹æ¹®
´ª 1:39 At that time Mary got ready and hurried to a town in the hill
country of Judea,
´ª 1:40 where she entered Zechariah's home and greeted Elizabeth.
´ª 1:41 When Elizabeth heard Mary's greeting, the baby leaped in her
womb, and Elizabeth was filled with the Holy Spiri t.
´ª 1:42 In a loud voice she exclaimed: "Blessed are you among women,
and blessed is the child you will bear!
´ª 1:43 But why am I so favored, that the mother of my Lord should
come to me?
´ª 1:44 As soon as the sound of your greeting reached my ears, the
baby in my womb leaped for joy.
´ª 1:45 Blessed is she who has believed that what the Lord has said
to her will be accomplished!"
´ª 1:46 And Mary said: "My soul glorifies the Lord
´ª 1:47 and my spirit rejoices in God my Savior,
´ª 1:48 for he has been mindful of the humble state of his servant.
From now on all generations will call me blessed,
´ª 1:49 for the Mighty One has done great things for me--holy is his
name.
´ª 1:50 His mercy extends to those who fear him, from generation to
generation.
´ª 1:51 He has performed mighty deeds with his arm; he has scattered
those who are proud in their inmost thoughts.
´ª 1:52 He has brought down rulers from their thrones but has lifted
up the humble.
´ª 1:53 He has filled the hungry with good things but has sent the
rich away empty.
´ª 1:54 He has helped his servant Israel, remembering to be merciful
´ª 1:55 to Abraham and his descendants forever, even as he said to
our fathers."
´ª 1:56 Mary stayed with Elizabeth for about three months and then
returned home.

´ª 1:57 When it was time for Elizabeth to have her baby, she gave birth
to a son.
´ª 1:58 Her neighbors and relatives heard that the Lord had shown her
great mercy, and they shared her joy.
´ª 1:59 On the eighth day they came to circumcise the child, and they
were going to name him after his father Zechariah ,
´ª 1:60 but his mother spoke up and said, "No! He is to be called John."
´ª 1:61 They said to her, "There is no one among your relatives who
has that name."
´ª 1:62 Then they made signs to his father, to find out what he would
like to name the child.
´ª 1:63 He asked for a writing tablet, and to everyone's astonishment
he wrote, "His name is John."
´ª 1:64 Immediately his mouth was opened and his tongue was loosed,
and he began to speak, praising God.
´ª 1:65 The neighbors were all filled with awe, and throughout the
hill country of Judea people were talking about all these things.
´ª 1:66 Everyone who heard this wondered about it, asking, "What then
is this child going to be?" For the Lor d's hand was with him.
´ª1:67 »ç°¡·ª°¡ ¿äÇÑÀÇ »ç¿ªÀ» ¿¹¾ðÇÔ
´ª 1:67 His father Zechariah was filled with the Holy Spirit and prophesied:
´ª 1:68 "Praise be to the Lord, the God of Israel, because he has come
and has redeemed his people.
´ª 1:69 He has raised up a horn of salvation for us in the house of
his servant David
´ª 1:70 (as he said through his holy prophets of long ago),
´ª 1:71 salvation from our enemies and from the hand of all who hate
us--
´ª 1:72 to show mercy to our fathers and to remember his holy covenant,
´ª 1:73 the oath he swore to our father Abraham:
´ª 1:74 to rescue us from the hand of our enemies, and to enable us
to serve him without fear
´ª 1:75 in holiness and righteousness before him all our days.
´ª 1:76 And you, my child, will be called a prophet of the Most High;
for you will go on before the Lord to prepare the way for him,
´ª 1:77 to give his people the knowledge of salvation through the forgiveness
of their sins,
´ª 1:78 because of the tender mercy of our God, by which the rising
sun will come to us from heaven
´ª 1:79 to shine on those living in darkness and in the shadow of death,
to guide our feet into the path of peace. "
´ª 1:80 And the child grew and became strong in spirit; and he lived
in the desert until he appeared publicly to Israel . |
