Luke 1:5-11
-
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 And they were both righteous before God, walking in all the commandments and ordinances of the Lord blameless.
-
7 And they had no child, because that Elisabeth was barren, and they both were now well stricken in years.
-
8 And it came to pass, that while he executed the priest's office before God in the order of his course,
-
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 And the whole multitude of the people were praying without at the time of incense.
-
11 And there appeared unto him an angel of the Lord standing on the right side of the altar of incense.
