Luke 1:49-72

⁴⁹For he that is mighty hath done to me great things, and his name is holy.

⁵⁰And his mercy is from kindred into kindreds, to men that dread him.

⁵¹He made might in his arm, he scattered proud men with the thought of his heart.

⁵²He put down mighty men from their seats, and enhanced meek men.

⁵³He hath full-filled hungry men with goods or He hath filled hungry men with good things, and he hath left rich men void.

⁵⁴He, having mind of his mercy, took Israel, his child;

⁵⁵as he hath spoken to our fathers, to Abraham and to his seed, into worlds.

⁵⁶And Mary dwelled with her, as it were three months, and turned again in to her house.

⁵⁷But the time of bearing child was fulfilled to Elisabeth, and she bare a son.

⁵⁸And the neighbours and the cousins of her heard, that the Lord had magnified his mercy with her; and they thanked him or they together joyed to her.

⁵⁹And it was done in the eighth day, they came to circumcise the child; and they called him Zechariah, by the name of his father.

⁶⁰And his mother answered, and said, Nay, but he shall be called John.

⁶¹And they said to her, For no man is in thy kindred, that is called by this name.

⁶²And they beckoned to his father, what he would that he were called.

⁶³And he asking a pointel, wrote, saying, John is his name. And all men wondered.

⁶⁴And anon his mouth was opened, and his tongue, and he spake, and blessed God.

⁶⁵And dread was made on all their neighbours, and all these words were published on all the mountains or all the hilly places of Judea.

⁶⁶And all men that heard putted in their heart, and said, What manner child shall this be? For the hand of the Lord was with him.

⁶⁷And Zechariah, his father, was full-filled or filled with the Holy Ghost, and prophesied, and said,

⁶⁸Blessed be the Lord God of Israel, for he hath visited, and made redemption of his people.

⁶⁹And he hath raised to us an horn of health, in the house of David, his child.

⁷⁰As he spake by the mouth of his holy prophets, that were from the world.

⁷¹Health from our enemies, and from the hand of all men that hated us.

⁷²To do mercy with our fathers, and to have mind of his holy testament.
