59 Y aconteció, que al octavo día vinieron para circuncidar al niño; y le llamaban del nombre de su padre, Zacarías.

60 Y respondiendo su madre, dijo: No; sino Juan será llamado.

61 Y le dijeron: ¿Por qué? nadie hay en tu parentela que se llame de este nombre.

62 Y hablaron por señas á su padre, cómo le quería llamar.

63 Y demandando la tablilla, escribió, diciendo: Juan es su nombre. Y todos se maravillaron.

64 Y luego fué abierta su boca y su lengua, y habló bendiciendo á Dios.

59 And it came to pass, on the eighth day, they came to circumcise the child, and they were calling him by the name of his father, Zacharias,

60 and his mother answering said, No, but he shall be called John.

61 And they said unto her -- There is none among thy kindred who is called by this name,

62 and they were making signs to his father, what he would wish him to be called,

63 and having asked for a tablet, he wrote, saying, John is his name; and they did all wonder;

64 and his mouth was opened presently, and his tongue, and he was speaking, praising God.
