And hath raised up a horn of salvation to us: in the house of David His servant.
As He spoke by the mouth of His holy prophets: who are from the beginning.
Salvation from our enemies: and from the hand of all that hate us.
To perform mercy to our fathers: and to remember His holy testament.
The oath which he swore to Abraham our father: that He would grant to us:
That being delivered from the hand of our enemies: we may serve Him without fear,
In holiness and justice before Him: all our days.
And thou, child, shalt be called the Prophet of the Highest: for thou shalt go before the face of the Lord to prepare His ways.
To give knowledge of salvation to His people: unto the remission of their sins.
Through the bowels of the mercy of our God: in which the Orient from on high hath visited us.
To enlighten them that sit in darkness, and in the shadow of death: to direct our feet into the way of peace.
