that believe; [1] In my name shall they cast out devils; [2] they shall speak with new tongues;
18 [3] They shall take up serpents; and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them; [4] they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover.
19 ¶ So then [5] after the Lord had spoken unto them, he was [6] received up into heaven, and [7] sat on the right hand of God.
20 And they went forth, and preached every where, the Lord working with them, [8] and confirming the word with signs following. Amen.

CHAP.I.
FOrasmuch as many have taken in hand to set forth in order a declaration of those things which are most surely believed among us,
2 [9] Even as they delivered them unto us, which [10] from the beginning were eyewitnesses, and ministers of the word;
3 [11] It seemed good to me also, having had perfect understanding of all things from the very first, to write unto thee [12] in order, [13] most excellent Theophilus,
4 [14] That thou mightest know the certainty of those things, wherein thou hast been instructed.
Before the Common Account called Anno Domini the sixth Year. 5 THERE was [15] in the days of Herod, the king of Judea, a certain priest named Zacharias, [16] of the course of Abia: and his wife was of the daughters of Aaron, and her name was Elisabeth.
6 And they were both [17] righteous before God, walking in all the commandments and ordinances of the Lord blameless.
7 And they had no child, because that Elisabeth was barren, and they both were now well stricken in years.
8 And it came to pass, that while he executed the priest's office before God [18] in the order of his course,
9 According to the custom of the priest's office, his lot was [19] to burn incense when he went into the temple of the Lord.
10 [20] And the whole multitude of the people were praying without at the time of incense.
11 And there appeared unto him an angel of the Lord standing on the right side of [21] the altar of incense.
12 And when Zacharias saw him, [22] he was troubled, and fear fell upon him.
13 But the angel said unto him, Fear not, Zacharias: for thy prayer is heard; and thy wife Elisabeth shall bear thee a son, and [23] thou shalt call his name John.
14 And thou shalt have joy and gladness; and [24] many shall rejoice at his birth.
15 For he shall be great in the sight of the Lord, and [25] shall drink neither wine nor strong drink; and he shall be filled with the Holy Ghost, [26] even from his mother's womb.
16 [27] And many of the children of Israel shall he turn to the Lord their God.
17 [28] And he shall go before him in the spirit and power of Elias, [29] to turn the hearts of the fathers to the children, and the disobedient ‖‖ Or, by. to the wisdom of the just; to make ready a people prepared for the Lord.
18 ¶ And Zacharias said unto the angel, [30] Whereby shall I know this? for I am an old man, and my wife well stricken in years.
19 And the angel answering said unto him, I am [31] Gabriel, that stand in the presence of God; and am sent to speak unto thee, and to shew thee these glad tidings.
20 And, behold, [32] thou shalt be dumb, and not able to speak, until the day that these things shall be performed, because thou believest not my words, which shall be fulfilled in their season.
21 And the people waited for Zacharias, and marvelled that he tarried so long in the temple.
22 And when he came out, he could not speak unto them: and they perceived that he had seen a vision in the temple: for he beckoned unto them, and remained speechless.
23 And it came to pass, that, as soon as
