nkjv Luke:1:11-28-38
nkjv@Luke:1:11 @ Then an angel of the Lord appeared to him, standing on the right side of the altar of incense.
nkjv@Luke:1:12 @ And when Zacharias saw him, he was troubled, and fear fell upon him.
nkjv@Luke:1:13 @ But the angel said to him, "Do not be afraid, Zacharias, for your prayer is heard; and your wife Elizabeth will bear you a son, and you shall call his name John.
nkjv@Luke:1:14 @ And you will have joy and gladness, and many will rejoice at his birth.
nkjv@Luke:1:15 @ For he will be great in the sight of the Lord, and shall drink neither wine nor strong drink. He will also be filled with the Holy Spirit, even from his mother's womb.
nkjv@Luke:1:16 @ And he will turn many of the children of Israel to the Lord their God.
nkjv@Luke:1:17 @ He will also go before Him in the spirit and power of Elijah, "to turn the hearts of the fathers to the children,' and the disobedient to the wisdom of the just, to make ready a people prepared for the Lord."
nkjv@Luke:1:18 @ And Zacharias said to the angel, "How shall I know this? For I am an old man, and my wife is well advanced in years."
nkjv@Luke:1:19 @ And the angel answered and said to him, "I am Gabriel, who stands in the presence of God, and was sent to speak to you and bring you these glad tidings.
nkjv@Luke:1:20 @ But behold, you will be mute and not able to speak until the day these things take place, because you did not believe my words which will be fulfilled in their own time."
nkjv@Luke:1:21 @ And the people waited for Zacharias, and marveled that he lingered so long in the temple.
nkjv@Luke:1:22 @ But when he came out, he could not speak to them; and they perceived that he had seen a vision in the temple, for he beckoned to them and remained speechless.
nkjv@Luke:1:23 @ So it was, as soon as the days of his service were completed, that he departed to his own house.
nkjv@Luke:1:24 @ Now after those days his wife Elizabeth conceived; and she hid herself five months, saying,
nkjv@Luke:1:25 @ "Thus the Lord has dealt with me, in the days when He looked on me, to take away my reproach among people."
nkjv@Luke:1:26 @ Now in the sixth month the angel Gabriel was sent by God to a city of Galilee named Nazareth,
nkjv@Luke:1:27 @ to a virgin betrothed to a man whose name was Joseph, of the house of David. The virgin's name was Mary.
nkjv@Luke:1:28 @ And having come in, the angel said to her, "Rejoice, highly favored one, the Lord is with you; blessed are you among women!"
