42:001:007 And they had no child, because that Elisabeth was barren, and they both were now well stricken in years.
42:001:008 And it came to pass, that while he executed the priest's office before God in the order of his course,
42:001:009 According to the custom of the priest's office, his lot was to burn incense when he went into the temple of the Lord.
42:001:010 And the whole multitude of the people were praying without at the time of incense.
42:001:011 And there appeared unto him an angel of the Lord standing on the right side of the altar of incense.
42:001:012 And when Zacharias saw him, he was troubled, and fear fell upon him.
42:001:013 But the angel said unto him, Fear not, Zacharias: for thy prayer is heard; and thy wife Elisabeth shall bear thee a son, and thou shalt call his name John.
42:001:014 And thou shalt have joy and gladness; and many shall rejoice at his birth.
42:001:015 For he shall be great in the sight of the Lord, and shall drink neither wine nor strong drink; and he shall be filled with the Holy Ghost, even from his mother's womb.
42:001:016 And many of the children of Israel shall he turn to the Lord their God.
