17And he will go before his face in the spirit and power of Elijah, turning the hearts of fathers to their children, and wrongdoers to the way of righteousness; to make ready a people whose hearts have been turned to the Lord.
18And Zacharias said to the angel, How may I be certain of this? For I am an old man, and my wife is far on in years.
19And the angel, answering, said, I am Gabriel, whose place is before God; I have been sent to say these words to you and to give you this good news.
20Now, see, you will be without voice or language till the day when these things come about, because you had not faith in my words, which will have effect at the right time.
21And the people were waiting for Zacharias and were surprised because he was in the Temple for such a long time.
22And when he came out he was not able to say anything, and they saw that he had seen a vision in the Temple; and he was making signs to them without words.
23And when the days of his work in the Temple were ended, he went back to his house.
