GOD’S WORD Translation

⁵⁹ When the child was eight days old, they went ⌞to the temple⌟ to circumcise him. They were going to name him Zechariah after his father. ⁶⁰ But his mother spoke up, “Absolutely not! His name will be John.”

⁶¹ Their friends said to her, “But you don’t have any relatives with that name.”
