Luke 1 : 68 - 79
Chapter 1
| 68 | "Blessed is the Lord God of Israel, For He has visited and redeemed His people,
|
| 69 | And has raised up a horn of salvation for us In the house of His servant David,
|
| 70 | As He spoke by the mouth of His holy prophets, Who have been since the world began,
|
| 71 | That we should be saved from our enemies And from the hand of all who hate us,
|
| 72 | To perform the mercy promised to our fathers And to remember His holy covenant,
|
| 73 | The oath which He swore to our father Abraham:
|
| 74 | To grant us that we, Being delivered from the hand of our enemies, Might serve Him without fear,
|
| 75 | In holiness and righteousness before Him all the days of our life.
|
| 76 | "And you, child, will be called the prophet of the Highest; For you will go before the face of the Lord to prepare His ways,
|
| 77 | To give knowledge of salvation to His people By the remission of their sins,
|
| 78 | Through the tender mercy of our God, With which the Dayspring from on high has visited us;
|
| 79 | To give light to those who sit in darkness and the shadow of death, To guide our feet into the way of peace."
