59 Καὶ
ἐγένετο
ἐν
τῇ
ἡμέρᾳ
τῇ
ὀγδόῃ
ἦλθον
περιτεμεῖν
τὸ
παιδίον,
καὶ
ἐκάλουν
αὐτὸ
ἐπὶ
τῷ
ὀνόματι
τοῦ
πατρὸς
αὐτοῦ
Ζαχαρίαν.
60 καὶ
ἀποκριθεῖσα
ἡ
μήτηρ
αὐτοῦ
εἶπεν·
Οὐχί,
ἀλλὰ
κληθήσεται
Ἰωάννης.
61 καὶ
εἶπαν
πρὸς
αὐτὴν
ὅτι,
Οὐδείς
ἐστιν
ἐκ
τῆς
συγγενείας
σου
ὃς
καλεῖται
τῷ
ὀνόματι
τούτῳ.
62 ἐνένευον
δὲ
τῷ
πατρὶ
αὐτοῦ
τὸ
τί
ἂν
θέλοι
καλεῖσθαι
αὐτό.
63 καὶ
αἰτήσας
πινακίδιον
ἔγραψεν,
λέγων·
Ἰωάννης
ἐστὶν
ὄνομα
αὐτοῦ.
καὶ
ἐθαύμασαν
πάντες.
64 ἀνεῴχθη
δὲ
τὸ
στόμα
αὐτοῦ
παραχρῆμα
καὶ
ἡ
γλῶσσα
αὐτοῦ,
καὶ
ἐλάλει
εὐλογῶν
τὸν
θεόν.
65 καὶ
ἐγένετο
ἐπὶ
πάντας
φόβος
τοὺς
περιοικοῦντας
αὐτούς,
καὶ
ἐν
ὅλῃ
τῇ
ὀρεινῇ
τῆς
Ἰουδαίας
διελαλεῖτο
πάντα
τὰ
ῥήματα
ταῦτα,
66 καὶ
ἔθεντο
πάντες
οἱ
ἀκούσαντες
ἐν
τῇ
καρδίᾳ
αὐτῶν,
λέγοντες·
Τί
ἄρα
τὸ
παιδίον
τοῦτο
ἔσται;
καὶ
γὰρ
χεὶρ
κυρίου
ἦν
μετ᾿
αὐτοῦ.

59 And it happened that on
the eighth day they came to circumcise the child, and they were calling him
after the name of his father Zechariah.
60 And his mother answered
and said: No, but he shall rather be called John.
61 And they said toward her:
There is no one from your kin who is called by this name.
62 But they motioned to
his father as to what he wished him to be called.
63 And he asked for a
tablet and wrote, saying: John is his name. And all wondered.
64 But immediately his
mouth was opened up, and his tongue, and he spoke, blessing God.
65 And fear came upon all
who housed around them, and in all the mountain country of Judea all
these words were being spoken of,
66 and all who heard
them placed them in their heart, saying: What then will this chld be?
For even the hand of the Lord was with him.
