69 and He has made a mighty Saviour for us in the house of His servant David,
70 "as He promised by the lips of His ancient prophets,
71 deliverance from our foes and from the hands of all who hate us,
72 to show mercy to our forefathers, and carry out His sacred covenant,
73 the oath which He swore to our forefather Abraham,
74 to grant us deliverance from the dreaded hand of our foes, so that we could serve Him
75 in holiness and uprightness In His own presence all our days.
76 And you, my child, will be called a prophet of the Most High, for you will go before the Lord to make ready His ways,
77 to give His people the knowledge of salvation through the forgiveness of their sins.
78 Because the heart of our God is merciful. And so the day will dawn upon us from on high,
79 to shine on those who sit in darkness and the shadow of death, to guide our feet into the way of peace."
