*
Now Elisabeth '
s full time came that she should be delivered ;
and she brought forth a son .
*
And her neighbours and her cousins heard how the Lord had shewed great mercy upon her ;
and they rejoiced with her .
*
And it came to pass ,
that on the eighth day they came to circumcise the child ;
and they called him Zacharias ,
after the name of his father .
*
And his mother answered and said ,
Not so ;
but he shall be called John .
*
And they said unto her ,
There is none of thy kindred that is called by this name .
*
And they made signs to his father ,
how he would have him called .
*
And he asked for a writing table ,
and wrote ,
saying ,
His name is John .
And they marvelled all .
*
And his mouth was opened immediately ,
and his tongue loosed ,
and he spake ,
and praised God .
*
And fear came on all that dwelt round about them :
and all these sayings were noised abroad throughout all the hill country of Judaea .
*
And all they that heard them laid them up in their hearts ,
saying ,
What manner of child shall this be !
And the hand of the Lord was with him .
