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 (or to those who have fearful reverence for 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. (He brought down the mighty from their thrones, and exalted, or raised up, the humble.)

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; (He, remembering his kindness, helped his servant Israel;)

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

⁵⁶And Mary dwelled with her, as it were three months, and turned again into her house. (And Mary remained with her for three months, and then returned 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 and they together joyed to her, (or with her).

⁵⁹And it was done in the eighth day, they came to circumcise the child; and they called him Zacharias, by the name of his father. (And it was done on the eighth day, they came to circumcise the child; and they called him Zechariah, after his father’s name.)

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 (or what he wanted him to be called).

⁶³And he asking (for) a pointel (or And he asking for a stylus), 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. (And at once his mouth was opened, and his tongue, and he spoke, and blessed God.)

⁶⁵And dread was made on all their neighbours (or And all their neighbours were filled with fearful reverence), and all these words were published on all the mountains or on all the hilly places of Judea.

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

⁶⁷And Zacharias, his father, was full-filled with the Holy Ghost or was filled with the Holy Ghost, and prophesied, and said, (And his father Zechariah was filled with the Holy Spirit, and he prophesied, and said,)

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

⁶⁹And he hath raised to us an horn of health, in the house of David, his child. (He hath raised up for us a Deliverer of salvation, in the house of his servant David.)

⁷⁰As he spake by the mouth of his holy prophets, that were from the world. (As he spoke by the mouths of his holy prophets, who lived long ago.)

⁷¹Health from our enemies (or Salvation or Deliverance from our enemies), and from the hand(s) of all (the) men that hated us.

⁷²To do mercy with our fathers, and to have mind of his holy testament. (To give mercy to our fathers, and to remember his holy covenant.)
