NOVA VULGATA	KING JAMES BIBLE
1 Quoniam quidem multi conati sunt ordinare narrationem, quae in nobiscompletae sunt, rerum,	1 Forasmuch as many have taken in hand to set forth in order a declaration of those things which are most surely believed among us,
2 sicut tradiderunt nobis, qui ab initio ipsi viderunt etministri fuerunt verbi,	2 Even as they delivered them unto us, which from the beginning were eyewitnesses, and ministers of the word;
3 visum est et mihi, adsecuto a principio omnia,diligenter ex ordine tibi scribere, optime Theophile,	3 It seemed good to me also, having had perfect understanding of all things from the very first, to write unto thee in order, most excellent Theophilus,
4 ut cognoscas eorumverborum, de quibus eruditus es, firmitatem.	4 That thou mightest know the certainty of those things, wherein thou hast been instructed.
5 Fuit in diebus Herodis regis Iudaeae sacerdos quidam nomine Zacharias de viceAbiae, et uxor illi de filiabus Aaron, et nomen eius Elisabeth.	5 There was in the days of Herod, the king of Judaea, a certain priest named Zacharias, of the course of Abia: and his wife was of the daughters of Aaron, and her name was Elisabeth.
6 Erant autemiusti ambo ante Deum, incedentes in omnibus mandatis et iustificationibusDomini, irreprehensibiles.	6 And they were both righteous before God, walking in all the commandments and ordinances of the Lord blameless.
7 Et non erat illis filius, eo quod esset Elisabethsterilis, et ambo processissent in diebus suis.	7 And they had no child, because that Elisabeth was barren, and they both were now well stricken in years.
8 Factum est autem, cum sacerdotio fungeretur in ordine vicis suae ante Deum,	8 And it came to pass, that while he executed the priest's office before God in the order of his course,
9 secundum consuetudinem sacerdotii sorte exiit, ut incensum poneret ingressus intemplum Domini;	9 According to the custom of the priest's office, his lot was to burn incense when he went into the temple of the Lord.
10 et omnis multitudo erat populi orans foris hora incensi.	10 And the whole multitude of the people were praying without at the time of incense.
11 Apparuit autem illi angelus Domini stans a dextris altaris incensi;	11 And there appeared unto him an angel of the Lord standing on the right side of the altar of incense.
12 etZacharias turbatus est videns, et timor irruit super eum.	12 And when Zacharias saw him, he was troubled, and fear fell upon him.
13 Ait autem ad illumangelus: “ Ne timeas, Zacharia, quoniam exaudita est deprecatio tua, et uxortua Elisabeth pariet tibi filium, et vocabis nomen eius Ioannem.	13 But the angel said unto him, Fear not, Zacharias: for thy prayer is heard; and thy wife Elisabeth shall bear thee a son, and thou shalt call his name John.
14 Et eritgaudium tibi et exsultatio, et multi in nativitate eius gaudebunt:	14 And thou shalt have joy and gladness; and many shall rejoice at his birth.
15 erit enimmagnus coram Domino et vinum et siceram non bibet et Spiritu Sancto replebituradhuc ex utero matris suae	15 For he shall be great in the sight of the Lord, and shall drink neither wine nor strong drink; and he shall be filled with the Holy Ghost, even from his mother's womb.
16 et multos filiorum Israel convertet ad DominumDeum ipsorum.	16 And many of the children of Israel shall he turn to the Lord their God.
17 Et ipse praecedet ante illum in spiritu et virtute Eliae, utconvertat corda patrum in filios et incredibiles ad prudentiam iustorum, parareDomino plebem perfectam ”.	17 And he shall go before him in the spirit and power of Elias, 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 Et dixit Zacharias ad angelum: “ Unde hocsciam? Ego enim sum senex, et uxor mea processit in diebus suis ”.	18 And Zacharias said unto the angel, Whereby shall I know this? for I am an old man, and my wife well stricken in years.
19 Etrespondens angelus dixit ei: “ Ego sum Gabriel, qui adsto ante Deum, et missussum loqui ad te et haec tibi evangelizare.	19 And the angel answering said unto him, I am Gabriel, that stand in the presence of God; and am sent to speak unto thee, and to shew thee these glad tidings.
20 Et ecce: eris tacens et nonpoteris loqui usque in diem, quo haec fiant, pro eo quod non credidisti verbismeis, quae implebuntur in tempore suo ”.	20 And, behold, thou shalt be dumb, and not able to speak, until the day that these things shall be performed, because thou believest not my words, which shall be fulfilled in their season.
21 Et erat plebs exspectans Zachariam, et mirabantur quod tardaret ipse intemplo.	21 And the people waited for Zacharias, and marvelled that he tarried so long in the temple.
22 Egressus autem non poterat loqui ad illos, et cognoverunt quodvisionem vidisset in templo; et ipse erat innuens illis et permansit mutus.	22 And when he came out, he could not speak unto them: and they perceived that he had seen a vision in the temple: for he beckoned unto them, and remained speechless.
23 Et factum est, ut impleti sunt dies officii eius, abiit in domum suam.	23 And it came to pass, that, as soon as the days of his ministration were accomplished, he departed to his own house.
24 Post hos autem dies concepit Elisabeth uxor eius et occultabat se mensibusquinque dicens:	24 And after those days his wife Elisabeth conceived, and hid herself five months, saying,
25 “ Sic mihi fecit Dominus in diebus, quibus respexit auferreopprobrium meum inter homines ”.	25 Thus hath the Lord dealt with me in the days wherein he looked on me, to take away my reproach among men.

27 ad virginem desponsatam viro, cui nomen erat Ioseph dedomo David, et nomen virginis Maria.	27 To a virgin espoused to a man whose name was Joseph, of the house of David; and the virgin's name was Mary.
28 Et ingressus ad eam dixit: “ Ave,gratia plena, Dominus tecum ”.	28 And the angel came in unto her, and said, Hail, thou that art highly favoured, the Lord is with thee: blessed art thou among women.
29 Ipsa autem turbata est in sermone eius etcogitabat qualis esset ista salutatio.	29 And when she saw him, she was troubled at his saying, and cast in her mind what manner of salutation this should be.
30 Et ait angelus ei: “ Ne timeas,Maria; invenisti enim gratiam apud Deum.	30 And the angel said unto her, Fear not, Mary: for thou hast found favour with God.
31 Et ecce concipies in utero et pariesfilium et vocabis nomen eius Iesum.	31 And, behold, thou shalt conceive in thy womb, and bring forth a son, and shalt call his name JESUS.

33 et regnabitsuper domum Iacob in aeternum, et regni eius non erit finis ”.	33 And he shall reign over the house of Jacob for ever; and of his kingdom there shall be no end.
34 Dixit autem Maria ad angelum: “ Quomodo fiet istud, quoniam virum noncognosco? ”.	34 Then said Mary unto the angel, How shall this be, seeing I know not a man?
35 Et respondens angelus dixit ei: “ Spiritus Sanctussuperveniet in te, et virtus Altissimi obumbrabit tibi: ideoque et quod nascetursanctum, vocabitur Filius Dei.	35 And the angel answered and said unto her, The Holy Ghost shall come upon thee, and the power of the Highest shall overshadow thee: therefore also that holy thing which shall be born of thee shall be called the Son of God.

37 quia non erit impossibile apud Deum omne verbum ”.	37 For with God nothing shall be impossible.
38 Dixit autem Maria: “Ecce ancilla Domini; fiat mihi secundum verbum tuum ”. Et discessit ab illaangelus.	38 And Mary said, Behold the handmaid of the Lord; be it unto me according to thy word. And the angel departed from her.
39 Exsurgens autem Maria in diebus illis abiit in montana cum festinatione incivitatem Iudae	39 And Mary arose in those days, and went into the hill country with haste, into a city of Juda;
40 et intravit in domum Zachariae et salutavit Elisabeth.	40 And entered into the house of Zacharias, and saluted Elisabeth.
41 Etfactum est, ut audivit salutationem Mariae Elisabeth, exsultavit infans in uteroeius, et repleta est Spiritu Sancto Elisabeth	41 And it came to pass, that, when Elisabeth heard the salutation of Mary, the babe leaped in her womb; and Elisabeth was filled with the Holy Ghost:

43 Etunde hoc mihi, ut veniat mater Domini mei ad me?	43 And whence is this to me, that the mother of my Lord should come to me?
44 Ecce enim ut facta est voxsalutationis tuae in auribus meis, exsultavit in gaudio infans in utero meo.	44 For, lo, as soon as the voice of thy salutation sounded in mine ears, the babe leaped in my womb for joy.
45 Et beata, quae credidit, quoniam perficientur ea, quae dicta sunt ei a Domino”.	45 And blessed is she that believed: for there shall be a performance of those things which were told her from the Lord.
46 Et ait Maria: “ Magnificat anima mea Dominum,	46 And Mary said, My soul doth magnify the Lord,
47 et exsultavit spiritus meus in Deo salvatore meo,	47 And my spirit hath rejoiced in God my Saviour.
48 quia respexit humilitatem ancillae suae. Ecce enim ex hoc beatam me dicent omnes generationes,	48 For he hath regarded the low estate of his handmaiden: for, behold, from henceforth all generations shall call me blessed.

57 Elisabeth autem impletum est tempus pariendi, et peperit filium.	57 Now Elisabeth's full time came that she should be delivered; and she brought forth a son.

59 Et factum est, in die octavo veneruntcircumcidere puerum et vocabant eum nomine patris eius, Zachariam.	59 And it came to pass, that on the eighth day they came to circumcise the child; and they called him Zacharias, after the name of his father.
60 Etrespondens mater eius dixit: “ Nequaquam, sed vocabitur Ioannes ”.	60 And his mother answered and said, Not so; but he shall be called John.
61 Etdixerunt ad illam: “ Nemo est in cognatione tua, qui vocetur hoc nomine ”.	61 And they said unto her, There is none of thy kindred that is called by this name.
62 Innuebant autem patri eius quem vellet vocari eum.	62 And they made signs to his father, how he would have him called.
63 Et postulans pugillaremscripsit dicens: “ Ioannes est nomen eius ”. Et mirati sunt universi.	63 And he asked for a writing table, and wrote, saying, His name is John. And they marvelled all.

71 salutem ex inimicis nostris et de manu omnium, qui oderunt nos;	71 That we should be saved from our enemies, and from the hand of all that hate us;
