11And an angel of the Lord appeared to him, and stood on the right half of the altar of incense (or and stood on the right side of the altar of incense).
12And Zacharias seeing (him) was (made) afraid or was distroubled, and dread fell upon him. (And when Zechariah saw him he was afraid, and fear fell upon him.)
13And the angel said to him, Zacharias, dread thou not, (or Zechariah, fear not); for thy prayer is heard, and Elisabeth, thy wife, shall bear to thee a son, and his name shall be called John.
14And joy and gladding shall be to thee; and many shall have joy in his nativity, or birth.
15For he shall be great before the Lord, and he shall not drink wine nor cider, and he shall be full-filled with the Holy Ghost, or and he shall be filled with the Holy Ghost, (or and he shall be filled with the Holy Spirit), yet from his mother’s womb.
16And he shall convert many of the children of Israel to their Lord God; And he shall convert many of the sons of Israel to the Lord God of them;
17and he shall go before him in the spirit and virtue of Elias (or and he shall go before him in the spirit and in the power of Elijah); and he shall turn the hearts of the fathers into the sons, and men out of belief, or that believe not, to the prudence of just men (or to the wisdom of the righteous), to make ready a perfect people to the Lord.
18And Zacharias said to the angel, Whereof shall I know this? for I am old, and my wife hath gone far in her days.
19And the angel answered, and said to him, For I am Gabriel, that stand nigh before God, (or Yea, I am Gabriel, who standeth near to God); and I am sent to thee to speak, and to evangelize or to tell to thee these things.
20And lo! thou shalt be dumb, and thou shalt not be able to speak till into the day, in which these things shall be done; for thou hast not believed to my words (or for thou hast not believed my words), which shall be fulfilled in their time.
21And the people was abiding Zacharias (or And the people were waiting for Zechariah), and they wondered, (why) that he tarried (so) in the temple.
22And he went out, and might not speak to them, and they knew that he had seen a vision in the temple. And he beckoned to them, and dwelled still dumb.
23And it was done, when the days of his office were fulfilled, he went into his house.
24And after these days Elisabeth, his wife, conceived, and hid her(self) (for) five months, and said,
25For so the Lord did to me in the days, in which he beheld, to take away my reproof or my shame among men.
26But in the sixth month the angel Gabriel was sent from God into a city of Galilee, whose name was Nazareth,
27to a maiden or to a virgin, wedded to a man, whose name was Joseph, of the house of David; and the name of the maiden was Mary.
28And the angel entered to her, and said, Hail, full of grace; the Lord is with thee; blessed be thou among women.
29And when she had heard (this), she was troubled in his word (or she was troubled by his words), and thought what manner salutation this was.
30And the angel said to her, Dread thou not, Mary, (or Fear not, Mary), for thou hast found grace with God.
31Lo! thou shalt conceive in the womb, and shalt bear a son, and thou shalt call his name Jesus.
