11. And an angel of the Lord appeared to him, standing at the right side of the altar of incense.

12. And Zechariah was terrified when he saw the angel, and fear fell upon him.

13. But the angel said to him, “Do not be afraid, Zechariah, because your prayer has been heard, and your wife Elizabeth will bear you a son, and you will call his name John.

14. And you will experience joy and exultation, and many will rejoice at his birth.

15. For he will be great in the sight of the Lord, and he must never drink wine or beer, and he will be filled with the Holy Spirit while he is still in his mother’s womb.
