Luke 1:70-76 Common English Bible (CEB)

70. just as he said through the mouths of his holy prophets long ago.

71. He has brought salvation from our enemies and from the power of all those who hate us.

72. He has shown the mercy promised to our ancestors, and remembered his holy covenant,

73. the solemn pledge he made to our ancestor Abraham. He has granted

74. that we would be rescued from the power of our enemies so that we could serve him without fear,

75. in holiness and righteousness in God’s eyes, for as long as we live.

76. You, child, will be called a prophet of the Most High, for you will go before the Lord to prepare his way.
