路加所著的耶稣传记——撒迦利亚的预言
他父亲撒迦利亚，被圣灵充满了，就预言说， (1:67)
主以色列的神，是应当称颂的。因他眷顾他的百姓，为他们施行救赎。 (1:68)
在他仆人大卫家中，为我们兴起了拯救的角， (1:69)
（正如主借着从创世以来，圣先知的口所说的话） (1:70)
拯救我们脱离仇敌，和一切恨我们之人的手。 (1:71)
向我们列祖施怜悯，记念他的圣约。 (1:72)
就是他对我们祖宗亚伯拉罕所起的誓， (1:73)
叫我们既从仇敌手中被救出来， (1:74)
就可以终身在他面前，坦然无惧地用圣洁公义事奉他。 (1:75)
孩子阿，你要称为至高者的先知。因为你要行在主的前面，预备他的道路。 (1:76)
叫他的百姓因罪得赦，就知道救恩。 (1:77)
因我们神怜悯的心肠，叫清晨的日光从高天临到我们， (1:78)
要照亮坐在黑暗中死荫里的人。把我们的脚引到平安的路上。 (1:79)
那孩子渐渐长大，心灵强健，住在旷野，直到他显明在以色列人面前的日子。 (1:80)

Zechariah's Song
His father, Zacharias, was filled
with the Holy Spirit, and prophesied, saying,
"Blessed be the
Lord, the God of Israel,
for he has visited and worked redemption for 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 from of old),
salvation from our
enemies, and from the hand of all who hate us;
to show mercy towards
our fathers,
to remember his holy covenant,
the oath which he
spoke to Abraham, our father,
to grant to us that
we, being delivered out of the hand of our enemies,
should serve him without fear,
In holiness and
righteousness before him all the days of our life.
And you, child, will
be called a prophet of the Most High,
for you will go before the face of the Lord to make ready his ways,
to give knowledge of
salvation to his people by the remission of their sins,
because of the tender
mercy of our God,
whereby the dawn from on high will visit us,
to shine on those who
sit in darkness and the shadow of death;
to guide our feet into the way of peace."
The child was growing,
and becoming strong in spirit, and was in the desert until the day of his
public appearance to Israel.
