67 And Zacharias his father was filled with {the} Holy Spirit, and prophesied, saying,

68 Blessed be {the} Lord the God of Israel, because he has visited and wrought redemption for his people,

69 and raised up a horn of deliverance for us in the house of David his servant;

70 as he spoke by {the} mouth of his holy prophets, who have been since the world began;

71 deliverance from our enemies and out of the hand of all who hate us;

72 to fulfil mercy with our fathers and remember his holy covenant,

73 {the} oath which he swore to Abraham our father,

74 to give us, that, saved out of the hand of our enemies, we should serve him without fear

75 in piety and righteousness before him all our days.

76 And *thou*, child, shalt be called {the} prophet of {the} Highest; for thou shalt go before the face of {the} Lord to make ready his ways;

77 to give knowledge of deliverance to his people by {the} remission of their sins

78 on account of {the} bowels of mercy of our God; wherein {the} dayspring from on high has visited us,

79 to shine upon them who were sitting in darkness and in {the} shadow of death, to guide our feet into {the} way of peace.

67 And his father Zacharias was filled with the Holy Spirit, and prophesied, saying,

68 Blessed be the Lord, the God of Israel;

For he hath visited and wrought redemption for his people,

69 And hath raised up a horn of salvation for us

In the house of his servant David

70 (As he spake by the mouth of his holy prophets that have been from of old),

71 Salvation from our enemies, and from the hand of all that hate us;

72 To show mercy towards our fathers,

And to remember his holy covenant;

73 The oath which he sware unto Abraham our father,

74 To grant unto us that we being delivered out of the hand of our enemies

Should serve him without fear,

75 In holiness and righteousness before him all our days.

76 Yea and thou, child, shalt be called the prophet of the Most High:

For thou shalt go before the face of the Lord to make ready his ways;

77 To give knowledge of salvation unto his people

In the remission of their sins,

78 Because of the tender mercy of our God,

Whereby the dayspring from on high shall visit us,

79 To shine upon them that sit in darkness and the shadow of death;

To guide our feet into the way of peace.
