| 1:1 |
Since, nitõtọ, many have attempted to set in order a narrative of the things that have been completed among us, |
| 1:2 |
just as they have been handed on to those of us who from the beginning saw the same and were ministers of the word, |
| 1:3 |
so it seemed good to me also, having diligently followed everything from the beginning, to write to you, lọ́nà tó wà létòlétò, most excellent Theophilus, |
| 1:4 |
so that you might know the truthfulness of those words by which you have been instructed. |
| 1:5 |
There was, in the days of Herod, king of Judea, a certain priest named Zechariah, of the section of Abijah, and his wife was of the daughters of Aaron, and her name was Elizabeth. |
| 1:6 |
Now they were both just before God, progressing in all of the commandments and the justifications of the Lord without blame. |
| 1:7 |
And they had no child, because Elizabeth was barren, and they both had become advanced in years. |
| 1:8 |
Lẹhinna o ṣẹlẹ pe, when he was exercising the priesthood before God, in the order of his section, |
| 1:9 |
according to the custom of the priesthood, the lot fell so that he would offer incense, entering into the temple of the Lord. |
| 1:10 |
And the entire multitude of the people was praying outside, at the hour of incense. |
| 1:11 |
Then there appeared to him an Angel of the Lord, standing at the right of the altar of incense. |
| 1:12 |
Ati nigbati o ri i, Zechariah was disturbed, and fear fell over him. |
| 1:13 |
Ṣugbọn angẹli na wi fun u: "Ma beru, Sekariah, for your prayer has been heard, and your wife Elizabeth shall bear a son to you. And you shall call his name John. |
| 1:14 |
And there will be joy and exultation for you, and many will rejoice in his nativity. |
| 1:15 |
For he will be great in the sight of the Lord, and he will not drink wine or strong drink, and he will be filled with the Holy Spirit, even from his mother’s womb. |
| 1:16 |
And he will convert many of the sons of Israel to the Lord their God. |
| 1:17 |
And he will go before him with the spirit and power of Elijah, so that he may turn the hearts of the fathers to the sons, and the incredulous to the prudence of the just, so as to prepare for the Lord a completed people.” |
| 1:18 |
And Zechariah said to the Angel: “How may I know this? For I am elderly, and my wife is advanced in years.” |
| 1:19 |
Ati ni esi, Angeli na si wi fun u: “I am Gabriel, who stands before God, and I have been sent to speak to you, and to proclaim these things to you. |
| 1:20 |
Si kiyesi i, you will be silent and unable to speak, until the day on which these things shall be, because you have not believed my words, which will be fulfilled in their time.” |
| 1:21 |
And the people were waiting for Zechariah. And they wondered why he was being delayed in the temple. |
| 1:22 |
Lẹhinna, nigbati o jade, he was unable to speak to them. And they realized that he had seen a vision in the temple. And he was making signs to them, but he remained mute. |
| 1:23 |
Ati pe o ṣẹlẹ pe, after the days of his office were completed, he went away to his house. |
| 1:24 |
Lẹhinna, lẹhin ọjọ wọnni, his wife Elizabeth conceived, and she hid herself for five months, wipe: |
| 1:25 |
“For the Lord did this for me, at the time when he decided to take away my reproach among men.” |

And he has raised up a horn of salvation for us, in the house of David his servant, |
| 1:70 |
just as he spoke by the mouth of his holy Prophets, who are from ages past: |
| 1:71 |
salvation from our enemies, and from the hand of all those who hate us, |
| 1:72 |
to accomplish mercy with our fathers, and to call to mind his holy testament, |
| 1:73 |
the oath, which he swore to Abraham, baba wa, that he would grant to us, |

nitorina, having been freed from the hand of our enemies, we may serve him without fear, |

Iwo na a, ọmọ, shall be called the prophet of the Most High. For you will go before the face of the Lord: to prepare his ways, |
| 1:77 |
to give knowledge of salvation to his people for the remission of their sins, |
| 1:78 |
through the heart of the mercy of our God, by which, descending from on high, he has visited us, |

to illuminate those who sit in darkness and in the shadow of death, and to direct our feet in the way of peace.” |
