THE SYLVANUS UNITED GOSPEL VERSION©
In the days of Herodes, King of Judea, there came to be some priest out of Abyah's shift named Zakaryah, and his wife, whose name was Elishabet, was of Aaron's daughters. Moreover, both were righteous in God's sight, living their lives blamelessly by all the commandments and righteous judgements of Master, but for them, there was no child, forasmuch as Elishabet was barren and both had got on in their years. (Luke 1:5-7) Now it came to be, since he performed sacred duties before God in the proceeding of his shift, that he got by lot, according to the custom of the priesthood, to enter into Master's temple to offer incense, and outside, at the hour of incense {offering}, all the multitude of the people was praying. Moreover, Master's messenger appeared to him standing from out of the right side of the altar of incense, so Zakaryah, having caught the sight, became agitated, and fear fell upon him. However, the messenger said to him: "Have no fear Zakaryah, for your supplication was given attention, and your wife Elishabet will give birth to a son for you, and you will call his name Yohan, and to you, there will be joy and jubilation, and many will be rejoiced over his birth for he shall be great in the sight of Master, and he will be filled with holy spirit still {not yet} out of his mother's womb, but he certainly should not drink wine and alcohol. Also, he will turn back many of the children of Yishrael over to Master, their God, and he will go ahead right in front of Him in the spirit and power of Elyah, to turn back over to children the hearts of parents, {to turn back} the incredulous ones to the thoughtfulness of the righteous, {and} to make ready for Master an equipped people." And Zakaryah said to the messenger: "What will get me to know that? For I am an old man and my wife has gotten on in her years." As an answer, the messenger said to him: "I am Gabriel, who has been standing next to God, in His sight, and I was commissioned to speak to you and declare these good messages to you. And lo and behold! You will be mute and not able to speak until that day producing these things come, because you did no believe in my enunciations, which will be fulfilled in their due time." (Luke 1:8-20) Now the people were anticipating Zakaryah and were wondering at his lingering in the temple, but on coming out, he was unable to speak, so he was gesturing to them, and they recognised that he had seen a vision in the temple. And he continued to be mute, and it came to be, as the days of his ministry were fulfilled, that he went away to his house. Moreover, after these days, his wife Elishabet conceived and hid herself five months saying: "Thus has Master designed, in which days He considered to remove my discredit among mankind". (Luke 1:21-25) Now in the sixth month, Gabri'el the messenger was commissioned [by / from] God into a city of Galilaia (the name of which is Nazaret), toward a virgin who had been engaged to a man named Yoseph, out of the house of David; and the name of the virgin was Mariam. Entering toward her then, (the messenger*) said: "Rejoice, Graced one; Master is with you (blessed one among women*)". Moreover, (catching the sight,*) she was startled over [the / his] enunciation, and was pondering what sort of greeting this could be. The messenger then said to her: "Do not fear Mariam, for you found grace with God and lo and behold! you will conceive in {your} womb, and you will give birth to a son, and you will name him Jesus. This one shall be great, and he will be called Son of the Most High, and Master God will give him the throne of David his father, and he will reign over the house of Jacob into eternity, and there shall be no end of his kingship". Moreover Mariam said to the messenger: "How shall that be, since I am no intimate with a man?" So, in answer, the messenger said to her: 'Holy Spirit will fall upon you, and the power of the Most-High will overshadow you, hence The one born holy (out of you*) will be called Son of God. And lo-and-behold! your kinswoman Elishabet: she has conceived a son in her old age, and this is to her the sixth month, the so-called barren, because no utterance with God will be impracticable.' So Mariam said: 'Behold! Master's servant girl. May it happen to me according to your words'. And The Messenger departed from her. (Luke 1:26-38)
