< Luke 1 >

1 Since many have undertaken to set in order a narrative concerning those matters which have been fulfilled among us,
ⲁ̅ⲉⲡⲉⲓⲇⲏ ⲁϩⲁϩ ϩⲓⲧⲟⲟⲧⲟⲩ ⲉⲥϩⲁⲓ ⲛⲛϣⲁϫⲉ ⲉⲧⲃⲉ ⲛⲉϩⲃⲏⲩⲉ ⲉⲛⲧⲁⲩⲧⲱⲧ ⲛϩⲏⲧ ϩⲣⲁⲉⲓ ⲛϩⲏⲧⲛ
2 even as those who from the beginning were eyewitnesses and servants of the word delivered them to us,
ⲃ̅ⲕⲁⲧⲁ ⲑⲉ ⲉⲛⲧⲁⲩⲧⲁⲁⲥ ⲉⲧⲟⲟⲧⲛ ⲛϭⲓ ⲛⲉⲛⲧⲁⲩⲛⲁⲩ ϩⲛ ⲛⲉⲩⲃⲁⲗ ϫⲓⲛ ⲛϣⲟⲣⲡ ⲉⲁⲩϣⲱⲡⲉ ⲛϩⲩⲡⲏⲣⲉⲧⲏⲥ ⲙⲡϣⲁϫⲉ
3 it seemed good to me also, having traced the course of all things accurately from the first, to write to you in order, most excellent Theophilus;

4 that you might know the certainty concerning the things in which you were instructed.

5 There was in the days of Herod, the king of Judea, a certain priest named Zechariah, of the division of Abijah. He had a wife of the daughters of Aaron, and her name was Elizabeth.
ⲉ̅ⲁϥϣⲱⲡⲉ ⲇⲉ ϩⲛ ⲛⲉϩⲟⲟⲩ ⲛϩⲏⲣⲱⲇⲏⲥ ⲡⲣⲣⲟ ⲛϯⲟⲩⲇⲁⲓⲁ ⲛϭⲓ ⲟⲩⲏⲏⲃ ⲉⲡⲉϥⲣⲁⲛ ⲡⲉ ⲍⲁⲭⲁⲣⲓⲁⲥ ⲉϥⲏⲡ ⲉⲛⲉϩⲟⲟⲩ ⲛⲁⲃⲓⲁ ⲉⲩⲛⲧϥⲟⲩⲥϩⲓⲙⲉ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲛ ⲛϣⲉⲉⲣⲉ ⲛⲁⲁⲣⲱⲛ ⲉⲡⲉⲥⲣⲁⲛ ⲡⲉ ⲉⲗⲓⲥⲁⲃⲉⲧ
6 They were both righteous before God, walking blamelessly in all the commandments and ordinances of the Lord.
ⲋ̅ⲛⲉⲩϣⲟⲟⲡ ⲇⲉ ⲡⲉ ⲙⲡⲉⲥⲛⲁⲩ ⲛⲇⲓⲕⲁⲓⲟⲥ ⲙⲡⲉⲙⲧⲟ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲙⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ ⲉⲩⲙⲟⲟϣⲉ ϩⲛ ⲛⲉⲛⲧⲟⲗⲏ ⲧⲏⲣⲟⲩ ⲛⲙⲛⲇⲓⲕⲁⲓⲱⲙⲁ ⲙⲡϫⲟⲉⲓⲥ ⲉⲩⲟⲩⲁⲁⲃ
7 But they had no child, because Elizabeth was barren, and they both were well advanced in years.

8 Now it happened, while he was performing the priest's office before God in the order of his division,
ⲏ̅ⲁⲥϣⲱⲡⲉ ⲇⲉ ϩⲙ ⲡⲧⲣⲉϥϣⲙϣⲉ ϩⲛ ⲧⲧⲁⲝⲓⲥ ⲛⲛⲉϥϩⲟⲟⲩ ⲙⲡⲉⲙⲧⲟ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲙⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ
9 according to the custom of the priest's office, his lot was to enter into the temple of the Lord and burn incense.

10 And the whole crowd of people were praying outside at the hour of incense.

11 An angel of the Lord appeared to him, standing on the right side of the altar of incense.

12 Zechariah was troubled when he saw him, and fear fell upon him.

13 But the angel said to him, "Do not be afraid, Zechariah, because your request has been heard, and your wife, Elizabeth, will bear you a son, and you are to name him John.
ⲓ̅ⲅ̅ⲡⲉϫⲉⲡⲁⲅⲅⲉⲗⲟⲥ ⲙⲡϫⲟⲉⲓⲥ ⲛⲁϥ ϫⲉ ⲙⲡⲣⲣ ϩⲟⲧⲉ ⲍⲁⲭⲁⲣⲓⲁⲥ ϫⲉ ⲁⲩⲥⲱⲧⲙ ⲉⲡⲉⲕⲥⲟⲡⲥ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲧⲉⲕⲥϩⲓⲙⲉ ⲉⲗⲓⲥⲁⲃⲉⲧ ⲥⲛⲁϫⲡⲟ ⲛⲁⲕ ⲛⲟⲩϣⲏⲣⲉ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲕⲛⲁⲙⲟⲩⲧⲉ ⲉⲡⲉϥⲣⲁⲛ ϫⲉ ⲓⲱϩⲁⲛⲛⲏⲥ
14 You will have joy and gladness; and many will rejoice at his birth.

15 For he will be great in the sight of the Lord, and he must never drink wine or strong drink, and he will be filled with the Holy Spirit, even from his mother's womb.

16 He will turn many of the children of Israel to the Lord, their God.

17 He will go before him in the spirit and power of Elijah, 'to turn the hearts of the fathers to the children,' and the disobedient to the wisdom of the just; to make ready a people prepared for the Lord."

18 Zechariah said to the angel, "How can I be sure of this? For I am an old man, and my wife is well advanced in years."
ⲓ̅ⲏ̅ⲁⲩⲱ ⲡⲉϫⲉⲍⲁⲭⲁⲣⲓⲁⲥ ⲙⲡⲁⲅⲅⲉⲗⲟⲥ ϫⲉ ϩⲛ ⲟⲩ ϯⲛⲁⲓⲙⲉ ⲉⲡⲁⲓ ⲁⲛⲟⲕ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲁⲓⲣϩⲗⲗⲟ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲧⲁⲥϩⲓⲙⲉ ⲁⲥⲁⲓⲁⲉⲓ ϩⲛ ⲛⲉⲥϩⲟⲟⲩ
19 The angel answered him, "I am Gabriel, who stands in the presence of God. I was sent to speak to you, and to bring you this good news.

20 And look, you will be silent and not able to speak, until the day that these things will happen, because you did not believe my words, which will be fulfilled in their proper time."

21 The people were waiting for Zechariah, and they were wondering why he was delayed in the temple.

22 When he came out, he could not speak to them, and they perceived that he had seen a vision in the temple. He continued making signs to them, and remained mute.

23 It happened, when the days of his service were fulfilled, he departed to his house.

24 After these days Elizabeth, his wife, conceived, and she hid herself five months, saying,

25 "Thus has the Lord done to me in the days in which he looked at me, to take away my disgrace among people."

26 Now in the sixth month, the angel Gabriel was sent from God to a city of Galilee, named Nazareth,

27 to a virgin pledged to be married to a man whose name was Joseph, of the house of David. The virgin's name was Mary.

28 Having come in, the angel said to her, "Greetings, favored one. The Lord is with you."

35 The angel answered her, "The Holy Spirit will come on you, and the power of the Most High will overshadow you. Therefore also the holy one who is born will be called the Son of God.

36 And look, Elizabeth, your relative, also has conceived a son in her old age; and this is the sixth month with her who was called barren.
