21 And the people waited for Zeḵaryah, and marvelled at his delay in the Dwelling Place.
22 And when he came out, he was unable to speak to them. And they recognised that he had seen a vision in the Dwelling Place, for he was beckoning to them and remained dumb.
23 And it came to be, as soon as the days of his service were completed, he went away to his house.
24 And after those days his wife Elisheḇa conceived. And she hid herself five months, saying,
25 “יהוה has done this for me, in the days when He looked upon me, to take away my reproach among men.”
26 And in the sixth month the messenger Gaḇri’ĕl was sent by Elohim to a city of Galil named Natsareth,
27 to a maiden engaged to a man whose name was Yosĕph, of the house of Dawiḏ. And the maiden’s name was Miryam.
