Luke 1:74-76
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
74 rescued from the hand of enemies,
without fear we might worship him 75 in holiness and righteousness
before him all our days.(A)
76 And you, child, will be called prophet of the Most High,
for you will go before the Lord[a] to prepare his ways,(B)
Footnotes
- 1:76 You will go before the Lord: here the Lord is most likely a reference to Jesus (contrast Lk 1:15–17 where Yahweh is meant) and John is presented as the precursor of Jesus.
