Luke 1:18-20 "By what proof," asked Zechariah, "shall I know this? For I am an old man, and my wife is far advanced in years."

WNT⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹⁸ "By what proof," asked Zechariah, "shall I know this? For I am an old man, and my wife is far advanced in years." ¹⁹ "I am Gabriel, who stand in the presence of God," answered the angel, "and I have been sent to talk with you and tell you this good news. ²⁰ And now you will be dumb and unable to speak until the day when this has taken place; because you did not believe my words--words which will be fulfilled at their appointed time."
