ISA-11:9 ...for the earth shall be full of the knowledge of the LORD,

as the waters cover the sea.

Copyright (c) 1985-2007

LUK-1:1 Forasmuch as many have taken in hand to set forth in

order a declaration of those things which are most surely

believed among us,

LUK-1:2 Even as they delivered them unto us, which from the

beginning were eyewitnesses, and ministers of the word;

LUK-1:3 It seemed good to me also, having had perfect

understanding of all things from the very first, to write unto

thee in order, most excellent Theophilus,

LUK-1:4 That thou mightest know the certainty of those things,

wherein thou hast been instructed.

LUK-1:5 There was in the days of Herod, the king of Judaea, a

certain priest named Zacharias, of the course of Abia: and his

wife [was] of the daughters of Aaron, and her name [was]

Elisabeth.

LUK-1:6 And they were both righteous before God, walking in all

the commandments and ordinances of the Lord blameless.

LUK-1:7 And they had no child, because that Elisabeth was barren,

and they both were [now] well stricken in years.

LUK-1:8 And it came to pass, that while he executed the priest's

office before God in the order of his course,

LUK-1:9 According to the custom of the priest's office, his lot

was to burn incense when he went into the temple of the Lord.

LUK-1:10 And the whole multitude of the people were praying

without at the time of incense.

LUK-1:11 And there appeared unto him an angel of the Lord

standing on the right side of the altar of incense.

LUK-1:12 And when Zacharias saw [him], he was troubled, and fear

fell upon him.

LUK-1:13 But the angel said unto him, Fear not, Zacharias: for

thy prayer is n/*/89ohn.

L*-1:15 For he shall be great in the sight of the Lord, and

shall drink neither wine nor strong drink; and he shall be

filled with the Holy Ghost, even from his mother's womb. LUK-1:

16 And many of the children of Israel shall he turn to the Lord

their God. LUK-1:17 And he shall go before him in the spirit and

power of Elias, to turn the hearts of the fathers to the

children, and the disobedient to the wisdom of the just; to make

ready a people prepared for the Lord.

LUK-1:18 And Zacharias said unto the angel, Whereby shall I know

this? for I am an old man, and my wife well stricken in years.

LUK-1:19 And the angel answering said unto him, I am Gabriel,

that stand in the presence of God; and am sent to speak unto

thee, and to show thee these glad tidings.

LUK-1:20 And, behold, thou shalt be dumb, and not able to speak,

until the day that these things shall be performed, because thou

believest not my words, which shall be fulfilled in their season.

LUK-1:21 And the people waited for Zacharias, and marvelled that

he tarried so long in the temple.

LUK-1:22 And when he came out, he could not speak unto them: and

they perceived that he had seen a vision in the temple: for he

beckoned unto them, and remained speechless.

LUK-1:23 And it came to pass, that, as soon as the days of his

ministration were accomplished, he departed to his own house.

LUK-1:24 And after those days his wife Elisabeth conceived, and

hid herself five months, saying,

LUK-1:25 Thus hath the Lord dealt with me in the days wherein he

looked on [me], to take away my reproach among men.

LUK-1:26 And in the sixth month the angel Gabriel was sent from

God unto a city of Galilee, named Nazareth,

LUK-1:27 To a virgin espoused to a man whose name was Joseph, of

the house of David; and the virgin's name [was] Mary.

LUK-1:28 And the angel came in unto her, and said, Hail, [thou

that art] highly favoured, the Lord [is] with thee: blessed

[art] thou among women.

LUK-1:29 And when she saw [him], she was troubled at his saying,

and cast in her mind what manner of salutation this should be.

LUK-1:30 And the angel said unto her, Fear not, Mary: for thou

hast found favour with God.

LUK-1:31 And, behold, thou shalt conceive in thy womb, and bring

forth a son, and shalt call his name JESUS.

LUK-1:32 He shall be great, and shall be called the Son of the

Highest: and the Lord God shall give unto him the throne of his

father David:

LUK-1:33 And he shall reign over the house of Jacob for ever;

and of his kingdom there shall be no end.

LUK-1:34 Then said Mary unto the angel, How shall this be,

seeing I know not a man?

LUK-1:35 And the angel answered and said unto her, The Holy

Ghost shall come upon thee, and the power of the Highest shall

overshadow thee: therefore also that holy thing which shall be

born of thee shall be called the Son of God.

LUK-1:36 And, behold, thy cousin Elisabeth, she hath also

conceived a son in her old age: and this is the sixth month with

her, who was called barren.

LUK-1:37 For with God nothing shall be impossible.

LUK-1:38 And Mary said, Behold the handmaid of the Lord; be it

unto me according to thy word. And the angel departed from her.

LUK-1:39 And Mary arose in those days, and went into the hill

country with haste, into a city of Juda;

LUK-1:40 And entered into the house of Zacharias, and saluted

Elisabeth.

LUK-1:41 And it came to pass, that, when Elisabeth heard the

salutation of Mary, the babe leaped in her womb; and Elisabeth

was filled with the Holy Ghost:

LUK-1:42 And she spake out with a loud voice, and said, Blessed

[art] thou among women, and blessed [is] the fruit of thy womb.

LUK-1:43 And whence [is] this to me, that the mother of my Lord

should come to me?

LUK-1:44 For, lo, as soon as the voice of thy salutation sounded

in mine ears, the babe leaped in my womb for joy.

LUK-1:45 And blessed [is] she that believed: for there shall be

a performance of those things which were told her from the Lord.

LUK-1:46 And Mary said, My soul doth magnify the Lord,

LUK-1:47 And my spirit hath rejoiced in God my Saviour.

LUK-1:48 For he hath regarded the low estate of his handmaiden:

for, behold, from henceforth all generations shall call me

blessed.

LUK-1:49 For he that is mighty hath done to me great things; and

holy [is] his name.

LUK-1:50 And his mercy [is] on them that fear him from

generation to generation.

LUK-1:51 He hath showed strength with his arm; he hath scattered

the proud in the imagination of their hearts.

LUK-1:52 He hath put down the mighty from [their] seats, and

exalted them of low degree.

LUK-1:53 He hath filled the hungry with good things; and the

rich he hath sent empty away.

LUK-1:54 He hath holpen his servant Israel, in remembrance of

[his] mercy;

LUK-1:55 As he spake to our fathers, to Abraham, and to his seed

for ever.

LUK-1:56 And Mary abode with her about three months, and

returned to her own house.

LUK-1:57 Now Elisabeth's full time came that she should be

delivered; and she brought forth a son.

LUK-1:58 And her neighbours and her cousins heard how the Lord

had showed great mercy upon her; and they rejoiced with her.

LUK-1:59 And it came to pass, that on the eighth day they came

to circumcise the child; and they called him Zacharias, after

the name of his father.

LUK-1:60 And his mother answered and said, Not [so]; but he

shall be called John.

LUK-1:61 And they said unto her, There is none of thy kindred

that is called by this name.

LUK-1:62 And they made signs to his father, how he would have

him called.

LUK-1:63 And he asked for a writing table, and wrote, saying,

His name is John. And they marvelled all.

LUK-1:64 And his mouth was opened immediately, and his tongue

[loosed], and he spake, and praised God.

LUK-1:65 And fear came on all that dwelt round about them: and

all these sayings were noised abroad throughout all the hill

country of Judaea.

LUK-1:66 And all they that heard [them] laid [them] up in their

hearts, saying, What manner of child shall this be! And the hand

of the Lord was with him.

LUK-1:67 And his father Zacharias was filled with the Holy Ghost,

and prophesied, saying,

LUK-1:68 Blessed [be] the Lord God of Israel; for he hath

visited and redeemed his people,

LUK-1:69 And hath raised up an horn of salvation for us in the

house of his servant David;

LUK-1:70 As he spake by the mouth of his holy prophets, which

have been since the world began:

LUK-1:71 That we should be saved from our enemies, and from the

hand of all that hate us;

LUK-1:72 To perform the mercy [promised] to our fathers, and to

remember his holy covenant;

LUK-1:73 The oath which he sware to our father Abraham,

LUK-1:74 That he would grant unto us, that we being delivered

out of the hand of our enemies might serve him without fear,

LUK-1:75 In holiness and righteousness before him, all the days

of our life.

LUK-1:76 And thou, child, shalt be called the prophet of the

Highest: for thou shalt go before the face of the Lord to

prepare his ways;

LUK-1:77 To give knowledge of salvation unto his people by the

remission of their sins,

LUK-1:78 Through the tender mercy of our God; whereby the

dayspring from on high hath visited us,

LUK-1:79 To give light to them that sit in darkness and [in] the

shadow of death, to guide our feet into the way of peace.

LUK-1:80 And the child grew, and waxed strong in spirit, and was

in the deserts till the day of his showing unto Israel.
