"And you, my
child, will be called a prophet of the Most High; for you will go on
before the Lord to prepare the way for him, to give his people the
knowledge of salvation through the forgiveness of their sins, because of
the tender mercy of our God, by which the rising sun will come to us
from heaven to shine on those living in darkness and in the shadow of
death, to guide our feet into the path of peace."
