12. And Zacharias was troubled, seeing him, and fear fell upon him.
13. But the angel said to him, Fear not, Zacharias, because thy supplication has been heard, and thy wife Elizabeth shall bear thee a son, and thou shalt call his name John.
14. And he shall be to thee joy and rejoicing, and many shall rejoice at his birth.
15. For he shall be great before the Lord, and he shall drink no wine nor strong drink; and he shall be filled with the Holy Spirit, even from his mother's womb.
16. And many of the sons of Israel shall he turn to the Lord their God.
