rsv Luke:1:57-66
rsv@Luke:1:57 @ Now the time came for Elizabeth to be delivered, and she gave birth to a son.
rsv@Luke:1:58 @ And her neighbors and kinsfolk heard that the Lord had shown great mercy to her, and they rejoiced with her.
rsv@Luke:1:59 @ And on the eighth day they came to circumcise the child; and they would have named him Zechari'ah after his father,
rsv@Luke:1:60 @ but his mother said, "Not so; he shall be called John."
rsv@Luke:1:61 @ And they said to her, "None of your kindred is called by this name."
rsv@Luke:1:62 @ And they made signs to his father, inquiring what he would have him called.
rsv@Luke:1:63 @ And he asked for a writing tablet, and wrote, "His name is John." And they all marveled.
rsv@Luke:1:64 @ And immediately his mouth was opened and his tongue loosed, and he spoke, blessing God.
rsv@Luke:1:65 @ And fear came on all their neighbors. And all these things were talked about through all the hill country of Judea;
rsv@Luke:1:66 @ and all who heard them laid them up in their hearts, saying, "What then will this child be?" For the hand of the Lord was with him.
