Luke 1 (KJV)

Even as

they delivered them

unto us,

which

from

the beginning

were

eyewitnesses,

and

ministers

of the

word;

That

thou mightest know

the

certainty

those things,

wherein

thou hast been instructed.

There was

the

days

of Herod,

the

king

of Judaea,

a certain

priest

named

Zacharias,

the course

of Abia:

and

his

wife

was of

the

daughters

of Aaron,

and

her

name

was Elisabeth.

And

they

had

child,

because that

Elisabeth

was

barren,

and

they

both

were

now well stricken

years.

And

it came to pass,

that while

executed the priest's

office

before

God

the

order

of his

course,

According to

the

custom

of the priest's

office,

his lot was

to burn incense

when he went

into

the

temple

of the

Lord.

And

the

whole

multitude

of the

people

were

praying

without

at the

time

of incense.

And

there appeared

unto him

an angel

of the Lord

standing

the right side

of the

altar

of incense.

And

when Zacharias

saw

him, he was troubled,

and

fear

fell

upon

him.

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.

And

thou

shalt have

joy

and

gladness;

and

many

shall rejoice

his

birth.

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.

And

many

of the

children

of Israel

shall he turn

the Lord

their

God.

And

shall go

before

him

the spirit

and

power

of Elias,

to turn

the hearts

of the fathers

the children,

and

the disobedient

the wisdom

of the just;

to make ready

a people

prepared

for the Lord.

And

Zacharias

said

unto

the

angel,

Whereby

shall I know

this?

for

an old man,

and

wife

well stricken

years.

And

the

angel

answering

said

unto him,

Gabriel,

that

stand

in the presence

God;

and

am sent

to speak

unto

thee,

and

to shew thee

these

glad

tidings.

And

the

people

waited

for

Zacharias,

and

marvelled

that

tarried so long

the

temple.

And

it came to pass,

that, as soon as

the

days

of his

ministration

were accomplished,

he departed

his own

house.

And

after

those

days

his

wife

Elisabeth

conceived,

and

hid

herself

five

months,

saying,

Thus

hath the

Lord

dealt

with me

the

days

wherein

he looked on

me, to take away

reproach

among

men.

And

the

sixth

month

the

angel

Gabriel

was sent

from

God

unto

a city

of Galilee,

named

Nazareth,

a virgin

espoused

to a man

whose

name was

Joseph,

the house

of David;

and

the

virgin's

name

was Mary.

And

when she

saw

him, she was troubled

his

saying,

and

cast in her mind

what manner of

salutation

this

should be.

And

the

angel

said

unto her,

Fear

not,

Mary:

for

thou hast found

favour

with

God.

And,

behold,

thou shalt conceive

thy womb,

and

bring forth

a son,

and

shalt call

his

name

JESUS.

shall be

great,

and

shall be called

the Son

of the Highest:

and

the Lord

God

shall give

unto him

the

throne

of his

father

David:

And

he shall reign

over

the

house

of Jacob

for

ever;

and

of his

kingdom

there shall be

end.

Then

said

Mary

unto

the

angel,

How

shall this

be,

seeing

I know

not

a man?

And,

behold,

thy

cousin

Elisabeth,

she

hath also

conceived

a son

her

old age:

and

this

the sixth

month

with her,

who was called

barren.

For

with

God

nothing

shall be

impossible.

And

Mary

said,

Behold

the

handmaid

of the Lord;

be it

unto me

according to

thy

word.

And

the

angel

departed

from

her.

And

Mary

arose

those

days,

and went

into

the

hill country

with

haste,

into

a city

of Juda;

And

entered

into

the

house

of Zacharias,

and

saluted

Elisabeth.

And

it came to pass,

that, when

Elisabeth

heard

the

salutation

of Mary,

the

babe

leaped

her

womb;

and

Elisabeth

was filled

with the Holy

Ghost:

And

she spake out

with a loud

voice,

and

said,

Blessed

art thou

among

women,

and

blessed

is the

fruit

of thy

womb.

And

whence

is this

to me,

that

the

mother

of my

Lord

should come

me?

For,

lo,

as soon as

the

voice

of thy

salutation

sounded

mine

ears,

the

babe

leaped

womb

for

joy.

And

Mary

said,

soul

doth magnify

the

Lord,

And

spirit

hath rejoiced

God

Saviour.

For

he that is mighty

hath done

to me

great things;

and

holy

is his

name.

And

his

mercy

on them that fear

him

from

generation

to generation.

He hath shewed

strength

with

his

arm;

he hath scattered

the proud

in the imagination

of their

hearts.

He hath put down

the mighty

from

their seats,

and

exalted

them of low degree.

He hath filled

the hungry

with good things;

and

the rich

he hath sent

empty

away.

He hath holpen

his

servant

Israel,

in remembrance

of his mercy;

he spake

our

fathers,

to Abraham,

and

to his

seed

for

ever.

And

Mary

abode

with

her

about

three

months,

and

returned

her own

house.

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

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

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

John.

And

they marvelled

all.

And

his

mouth

was opened

immediately,

and

his

tongue

loosed, and

he spake,

and praised

God.

And

fear

came

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

their

hearts,

saying,

What

manner of

child

shall this

be!

And

the hand

of the Lord

was

with

him.

And

his

father

Zacharias

was filled

with the Holy

Ghost,

and

prophesied,

saying,

Blessed

be the Lord

God

of Israel;

for

he hath visited

and

redeemed

his

people,

And

hath raised up

an horn

of salvation

for us

the

house

of his

servant

David;

he spake

the mouth

of his

holy

prophets,

which

have been since

the world began:

That we should be saved

from

our

enemies,

and

from

the hand

of all

that hate

us;

To perform

the mercy

promised to

our

fathers,

and

to remember

his

holy

covenant;

The oath

which

he sware

our

father

Abraham,

That he would grant

unto us,

that we being delivered

out of

the hand

of our

enemies

might serve

him

without fear,

holiness

and

righteousness

before

him,

all

the

days

of our

life.

To give

knowledge

of salvation

unto his

people

the remission

of their

sins,

Through

the tender

mercy

of our

God;

whereby

the dayspring

from

on high

hath visited

us,

To give light

to them

that sit

darkness

and

in the shadow

of death,

to guide

our

feet

into

the way

of peace.

And

the

child

grew,

and

waxed strong

in spirit,

and

was

the

deserts

till

the day

of his

shewing

unto

Israel.

Ἐπειδήπερ πολλοὶ ἐπεχείρησαν ἀνατάξασθαι διήγησιν περὶ τῶν πεπληροφορημένων ἐν ἡμῖν πραγμάτων

καθὼς παρέδοσαν ἡμῖν οἱ ἀπ' ἀρχῆς αὐτόπται καὶ ὑπηρέται γενόμενοι τοῦ λόγου

ἔδοξεν κἀμοὶ παρηκολουθηκότι ἄνωθεν πᾶσιν ἀκριβῶς καθεξῆς σοι γράψαι κράτιστε Θεόφιλε

ἵνα ἐπιγνῷς περὶ ὧν κατηχήθης λόγων τὴν ἀσφάλειαν

Ἐγένετο ἐν ταῖς ἡμέραις Ἡρῴδου τοῦ βασιλέως τῆς Ἰουδαίας ἱερεύς τις ὀνόματι Ζαχαρίας ἐξ ἐφημερίας Ἀβιά καὶ ἡ γυνὴ αὐτοῦ ἐκ τῶν θυγατέρων Ἀαρών καὶ τὸ ὄνομα αὐτῆς Ἐλισάβετ

ἦσαν δὲ δίκαιοι ἀμφότεροι ἐνώπιον τοῦ θεοῦ πορευόμενοι ἐν πάσαις ταῖς ἐντολαῖς καὶ δικαιώμασιν τοῦ κυρίου ἄμεμπτοι

καὶ οὐκ ἦν αὐτοῖς τέκνον καθότι ἡ Ἐλισάβετ ἦν στεῖρα καὶ ἀμφότεροι προβεβηκότες ἐν ταῖς ἡμέραις αὐτῶν ἦσαν

Ἐγένετο δὲ ἐν τῷ ἱερατεύειν αὐτὸν ἐν τῇ τάξει τῆς ἐφημερίας αὐτοῦ ἔναντι τοῦ θεοῦ

κατὰ τὸ ἔθος τῆς ἱερατείας ἔλαχεν τοῦ θυμιᾶσαι εἰσελθὼν εἰς τὸν ναὸν τοῦ κυρίου

καὶ πᾶν τὸ πλῆθος τοῦ λαοῦ ἦν προσευχόμενον ἔξω τῇ ὥρᾳ τοῦ θυμιάματος

ὤφθη δὲ αὐτῷ ἄγγελος κυρίου ἑστὼς ἐκ δεξιῶν τοῦ θυσιαστηρίου τοῦ θυμιάματος

καὶ ἐταράχθη Ζαχαρίας ἰδών καὶ φόβος ἐπέπεσεν ἐπ' αὐτόν

εἶπεν δὲ πρὸς αὐτὸν ὁ ἄγγελος Μὴ φοβοῦ Ζαχαρία διότι εἰσηκούσθη ἡ δέησίς σου καὶ ἡ γυνή σου Ἐλισάβετ γεννήσει υἱόν σοι καὶ καλέσεις τὸ ὄνομα αὐτοῦ Ἰωάννην

καὶ ἔσται χαρά σοι καὶ ἀγαλλίασις καὶ πολλοὶ ἐπὶ τῇ γεννήσει αὐτοῦ χαρήσονται

ἔσται γὰρ μέγας ἐνώπιον τοῦ κυρίου καὶ οἶνον καὶ σίκερα οὐ μὴ πίῃ καὶ πνεύματος ἁγίου πλησθήσεται ἔτι ἐκ κοιλίας μητρὸς αὐτοῦ

καὶ πολλοὺς τῶν υἱῶν Ἰσραὴλ ἐπιστρέψει ἐπὶ κύριον τὸν θεὸν αὐτῶν

καὶ αὐτὸς προελεύσεται ἐνώπιον αὐτοῦ ἐν πνεύματι καὶ δυνάμει Ἠλίου ἐπιστρέψαι καρδίας πατέρων ἐπὶ τέκνα καὶ ἀπειθεῖς ἐν φρονήσει δικαίων ἑτοιμάσαι κυρίῳ λαὸν κατεσκευασμένον

Καὶ εἶπεν Ζαχαρίας πρὸς τὸν ἄγγελον Κατὰ τί γνώσομαι τοῦτο ἐγὼ γάρ εἰμι πρεσβύτης καὶ ἡ γυνή μου προβεβηκυῖα ἐν ταῖς ἡμέραις αὐτῆς

καὶ ἀποκριθεὶς ὁ ἄγγελος εἶπεν αὐτῷ Ἐγώ εἰμι Γαβριὴλ ὁ παρεστηκὼς ἐνώπιον τοῦ θεοῦ καὶ ἀπεστάλην λαλῆσαι πρὸς σὲ καὶ εὐαγγελίσασθαί σοι ταῦτα·

καὶ ἰδού, ἔσῃ σιωπῶν καὶ μὴ δυνάμενος λαλῆσαι ἄχρι ἧς ἡμέρας γένηται ταῦτα ἀνθ ὧν οὐκ ἐπίστευσας τοῖς λόγοις μου οἵτινες πληρωθήσονται εἰς τὸν καιρὸν αὐτῶν

Καὶ ἦν ὁ λαὸς προσδοκῶν τὸν Ζαχαρίαν καὶ ἐθαύμαζον ἐν τῷ χρονίζειν αὐτόν ἐν τῷ ναῷ

ἐξελθὼν δὲ οὐκ ἠδύνατο λαλῆσαι αὐτοῖς καὶ ἐπέγνωσαν ὅτι ὀπτασίαν ἑώρακεν ἐν τῷ ναῷ· καὶ αὐτὸς ἦν διανεύων αὐτοῖς καὶ διέμενεν κωφός

καὶ ἐγένετο ὡς ἐπλήσθησαν αἱ ἡμέραι τῆς λειτουργίας αὐτοῦ ἀπῆλθεν εἰς τὸν οἶκον αὐτοῦ

Μετὰ δὲ ταύτας τὰς ἡμέρας συνέλαβεν Ἐλισάβετ ἡ γυνὴ αὐτοῦ καὶ περιέκρυβεν ἑαυτὴν μῆνας πέντε λέγουσα

ὅτι Οὕτως μοι πεποίηκεν ὁ κύριος ἐν ἡμέραις αἷς ἐπεῖδεν ἀφελεῖν τὸ ὄνειδός μου ἐν ἀνθρώποις

πρὸς παρθένον μεμνηστευμένην ἀνδρὶ ᾧ ὄνομα Ἰωσὴφ ἐξ οἴκου Δαβίδ· καὶ τὸ ὄνομα τῆς παρθένου Μαριάμ

καὶ εἰσελθὼν ὁ ἄγγελος πρὸς αὐτὴν εἶπεν Χαῖρε κεχαριτωμένη ὁ κύριος μετὰ σοῦ εὐλογημένη σὺ ἐν γυναιξίν

ἡ δὲ ἰδοῦσα διεταράχθη ἐπὶ τῷ λόγῳ αὐτοῦ, καὶ διελογίζετο ποταπὸς εἴη ὁ ἀσπασμὸς οὗτος

καὶ εἶπεν ὁ ἄγγελος αὐτῇ Μὴ φοβοῦ Μαριάμ εὗρες γὰρ χάριν παρὰ τῷ θεῷ

καὶ ἰδού, συλλήψῃ ἐν γαστρὶ καὶ τέξῃ υἱόν καὶ καλέσεις τὸ ὄνομα αὐτοῦ Ἰησοῦν

καὶ βασιλεύσει ἐπὶ τὸν οἶκον Ἰακὼβ εἰς τοὺς αἰῶνας καὶ τῆς βασιλείας αὐτοῦ οὐκ ἔσται τέλος

εἶπεν δὲ Μαριὰμ πρὸς τὸν ἄγγελον Πῶς ἔσται τοῦτο ἐπεὶ ἄνδρα οὐ γινώσκω

καὶ ἀποκριθεὶς ὁ ἄγγελος εἶπεν αὐτῇ Πνεῦμα ἅγιον ἐπελεύσεται ἐπὶ σέ καὶ δύναμις ὑψίστου ἐπισκιάσει σοι· διὸ καὶ τὸ γεννώμενον ἐκ σοῦ ἅγιον κληθήσεται υἱὸς θεοῦ

καὶ ἰδού, Ἐλισάβετ ἡ συγγενής σου καὶ αὐτὴ συνείληφυῖα υἱὸν ἐν γήρᾳ αὐτῆς καὶ οὗτος μὴν ἕκτος ἐστὶν αὐτῇ τῇ καλουμένῃ στείρᾳ·

ὅτι οὐκ ἀδυνατήσει παρὰ τῷ θεῷ πᾶν ῥῆμα

Ἀναστᾶσα δὲ Μαριὰμ ἐν ταῖς ἡμέραις ταύταις ἐπορεύθη εἰς τὴν ὀρεινὴν μετὰ σπουδῆς εἰς πόλιν Ἰούδα

καὶ εἰσῆλθεν εἰς τὸν οἶκον Ζαχαρίου καὶ ἠσπάσατο τὴν Ἐλισάβετ

καὶ ἐγένετο ὡς ἤκουσεν ἡ Ἐλισάβετ τὸν ἀσπασμὸν τῆς Μαρίας ἐσκίρτησεν τὸ βρέφος ἐν τῇ κοιλίᾳ αὐτῆς καὶ ἐπλήσθη πνεύματος ἁγίου ἡ Ἐλισάβετ

καὶ ἀνεφώνησεν φωνῇ μεγάλῃ καὶ εἶπεν Εὐλογημένη σὺ ἐν γυναιξίν καὶ εὐλογημένος ὁ καρπὸς τῆς κοιλίας σου

καὶ πόθεν μοι τοῦτο ἵνα ἔλθῃ ἡ μήτηρ τοῦ κυρίου μου πρὸς μέ

ἰδού, γὰρ ὡς ἐγένετο ἡ φωνὴ τοῦ ἀσπασμοῦ σου εἰς τὰ ὦτά μου ἐσκίρτησεν ἐν ἀγαλλιάσει τὸ βρέφος ἐν τῇ κοιλίᾳ μου

καὶ μακαρία ἡ πιστεύσασα ὅτι ἔσται τελείωσις τοῖς λελαλημένοις αὐτῇ παρὰ κυρίου

Καὶ εἶπεν Μαριάμ Μεγαλύνει ἡ ψυχή μου τὸν κύριόν

καὶ ἠγαλλίασεν τὸ πνεῦμά μου ἐπὶ τῷ θεῷ τῷ σωτῆρί μου

ὅτι ἐπέβλεψεν ἐπὶ τὴν ταπείνωσιν τῆς δούλης αὐτοῦ ἰδού, γὰρ ἀπὸ τοῦ νῦν μακαριοῦσίν με πᾶσαι αἱ γενεαί

ὅτι ἐποίησέν μοι μεγάλεῖα ὁ δυνατός καὶ ἅγιον τὸ ὄνομα αὐτοῦ

καὶ τὸ ἔλεος αὐτοῦ εἰς γενεὰς γενεῶν τοῖς φοβουμένοις αὐτόν

Ἐποίησεν κράτος ἐν βραχίονι αὐτοῦ διεσκόρπισεν ὑπερηφάνους διανοίᾳ καρδίας αὐτῶν·

καθεῖλεν δυνάστας ἀπὸ θρόνων καὶ ὕψωσεν ταπεινούς

πεινῶντας ἐνέπλησεν ἀγαθῶν καὶ πλουτοῦντας ἐξαπέστειλεν κενούς

ἀντελάβετο Ἰσραὴλ παιδὸς αὐτοῦ μνησθῆναι ἐλέους

καθὼς ἐλάλησεν πρὸς τοὺς πατέρας ἡμῶν τῷ Ἀβραὰμ καὶ τῷ σπέρματι αὐτοῦ εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα

Ἔμεινεν δὲ Μαριὰμ σὺν αὐτῇ ὡσεὶ μῆνας τρεῖς καὶ ὑπέστρεψεν εἰς τὸν οἶκον αὐτῆς

Τῇ δὲ Ἐλισάβετ ἐπλήσθη ὁ χρόνος τοῦ τεκεῖν αὐτήν καὶ ἐγέννησεν υἱόν

καὶ ἀποκριθεῖσα ἡ μήτηρ αὐτοῦ εἶπεν Οὐχί ἀλλὰ κληθήσεται Ἰωάννης

καὶ εἶπον πρὸς αὐτὴν ὅτι Οὐδείς ἐστιν ἐν τῇ συγγενεία σου ὃς καλεῖται τῷ ὀνόματι τούτῳ

ἐνένευον δὲ τῷ πατρὶ αὐτοῦ τὸ τί ἂν θέλοι καλεῖσθαι αὐτόν

καὶ αἰτήσας πινακίδιον ἔγραψεν λέγων, Ἰωάννης ἐστὶν τὸ ὄνομα αὐτοῦ καὶ ἐθαύμασαν πάντες

ἀνεῴχθη δὲ τὸ στόμα αὐτοῦ παραχρῆμα καὶ ἡ γλῶσσα αὐτοῦ καὶ ἐλάλει εὐλογῶν τὸν θεόν

καὶ ἔθεντο πάντες οἱ ἀκούσαντες ἐν τῇ καρδίᾳ αὐτῶν λέγοντες Τί ἄρα τὸ παιδίον τοῦτο ἔσται καὶ χεὶρ κυρίου ἦν μετ' αὐτοῦ

Καὶ Ζαχαρίας ὁ πατὴρ αὐτοῦ ἐπλήσθη πνεύματος ἁγίου καὶ Προεφήτευσεν λέγων

Εὐλογητὸς κύριος ὁ θεὸς τοῦ Ἰσραήλ ὅτι ἐπεσκέψατο καὶ ἐποίησεν λύτρωσιν τῷ λαῷ αὐτοῦ

καὶ ἤγειρεν κέρας σωτηρίας ἡμῖν ἐν τῷ οἴκῳ Δαβὶδ τοῦ παιδὸς αὐτοῦ

καθὼς ἐλάλησεν διὰ στόματος τῶν ἁγίων τῶν ἀπ' αἰῶνος προφητῶν αὐτοῦ

σωτηρίαν ἐξ ἐχθρῶν ἡμῶν καὶ ἐκ χειρὸς πάντων τῶν μισούντων ἡμᾶς

ποιῆσαι ἔλεος μετὰ τῶν πατέρων ἡμῶν καὶ μνησθῆναι διαθήκης ἁγίας αὐτοῦ

ὅρκον ὃν ὤμοσεν πρὸς Ἀβραὰμ τὸν πατέρα ἡμῶν

τοῦ δοῦναί ἡμῖν ἀφόβως ἐκ χειρὸς τῶν ἐχθρῶν ἡμῶν ῥυσθέντας λατρεύειν αὐτῷ

ἐν ὁσιότητι καὶ δικαιοσύνῃ ἐνώπιον αὐτοῦ πάσας τὰς ἡμέρας τὴς ζωῆς ἡμῶν

Καὶ σὺ παιδίον προφήτης ὑψίστου κληθήσῃ· προπορεύσῃ γὰρ πρὸ προσώπου κυρίου ἑτοιμάσαι ὁδοὺς αὐτοῦ

τοῦ δοῦναι γνῶσιν σωτηρίας τῷ λαῷ αὐτοῦ ἐν ἀφέσει ἁμαρτιῶν αὐτῶν

διὰ σπλάγχνα ἐλέους θεοῦ ἡμῶν ἐν οἷς ἐπεσκέψατο ἡμᾶς ἀνατολὴ ἐξ ὕψους

ἐπιφᾶναι τοῖς ἐν σκότει καὶ σκιᾷ θανάτου καθημένοις τοῦ κατευθῦναι τοὺς πόδας ἡμῶν εἰς ὁδὸν εἰρήνης
