So they all marveled . * Immediately his mouth was opened and his tongue loosed , and he spoke , praising God . * Then fear came on all who dwelt around them ; and all these sayings were discussed throughout all the hill country of Judea . * And all those who heard them kept them in their hearts , saying , "What kind of child will this be ?" And the hand of the Lord was with him . * Now his father Zacharias was filled with the Holy Spirit , and prophesied , saying : * "Blessed is the Lord God of Israel , For He has visited and redeemed His people , * And has raised up a horn of salvation for us In the house of His servant David , * As He spoke by the mouth of His holy prophets , Who have been since the world began , * That we should be saved from our enemies And from the hand of all who hate us , * To perform the mercy promised to our fathers And to remember His holy covenant ,
