Luke 1:67-80
Zechariah’s Song
67 And his father Zacharias was filled with the Holy Ghost, and prophesied, saying,
67:
68 Blessed [be] the Lord God of Israel; for he hath visited and redeemed his people,
68:
69 And hath raised up an horn of salvation for us in the house of his servant David;
69:
70 As he spake by the mouth of his holy prophets, which have been since the world began:
70:
71 That we should be saved from our enemies, and from the hand of all that hate us;
71:
72 To perform the mercy [promised] to our fathers, and to remember his holy covenant;
72:
73 The oath which he sware to our father Abraham,
73:
74 That he would grant unto us, that we being delivered out of the hand of our enemies might serve him without fear,
74:
75 In holiness and righteousness before him, all the days of our life.
75:
76 And thou, child, shalt be called the prophet of the Highest: for thou shalt go before the face of the Lord to prepare his ways;
76:
77 To give knowledge of salvation unto his people by the remission of their sins,
77:
78 Through the tender mercy of our God; whereby the dayspring from on high hath visited us,
78:
79 To give light to them that sit in darkness and [in] the shadow of death, to guide our feet into the way of peace.
79:
80 And the child grew, and waxed strong in spirit, and was in the deserts till the day of his shewing unto Israel.
80:
