57. Now when the time of Elisheva to give birth was fulfilled, she bore a ben.
58. And Elisheva's shchenim (neighbors) and krovim (relatives) heard that Adoneinu greatly demonstrated his rachamim to her, and they had much simcha with her.
59. And it came about on the yom hashemini (the eighth day) they came for the bris milah of the yeled, and they were calling him by the name of his abba, Zecharyah.
60. And in reply, his Em said: Lo, but he will be called Yochanan.
61. And they said to her, There is no one from your krovim who is called by this shem.
62. And they began motioning to the yeled's abba to find out what shem he wanted to give him.
63. And having asked for a luach (tablet), Zecharyah wrote, saying, Yochanan shmo. And everyone was amazed.
64. And Zecharyah's mouth was loosed at once and the lashon of him, and he began speaking, saying Baruch Hashem!
65. And upon all their shchenim (neighbors) came much yirat Shomayim, and in the entire hill country of Yehudah everyone was shmoozing about these matters.
