Gospel Luke 1:57-68
“1:57. Now Elizabeth's full time of being delivered was come: and she brought forth a son.
1:58. And her neighbors and kinsfolks heard that the Lord had shewed his great mercy towards her: and they congratulated with her.
1:59. And it came to pass that on the eighth day they came to circumcise the child: and they called him by his father's name Zachary.
1:60. And his mother answering, said: Not so. But he shall be called John.
1:61. And they said to her: There is none of thy kindred that is called by this name.
1:62. And they made signs to his father, how he would have him called.
1:63. And demanding a writing table, he wrote, saying: John is his name. And they all wondered.”
“1:64. And immediately his mouth was opened and his tongue loosed: and he spoke, blessing God.
1:65. And fear came upon all their neighbours: and all these things were noised abroad over all the hill country of Judea.
1:66. And all they that had heard them laid them up in their heart, saying: What an one, think ye, shall this child be? For the hand of the Lord was with him.
1:67. And Zachary his father was filled with the Holy Ghost. And he prophesied, saying:
1:68. Blessed be the Lord God of Israel: because he hath visited and wrought the redemption of his people.”
