Luke 1:15 in Context — Luke 1
13 Mas el ángel le dijo: Zacarías, no temas; porque tu oración ha sido oída, y tu mujer Elisabet te parirá un hijo, y llamarás su nombre Juan.
14 Y tendrás gozo y alegría, y muchos se gozarán de su nacimiento.
15 Porque será grande delante de Dios, y no beberá vino ni sidra; y será lleno del Espíritu Santo, aun desde el seno de su madre.
16 Y á muchos de los hijos de Israel convertirá al Señor Dios de ellos.
17 Porque él irá delante de él con el espíritu y virtud de Elías, para convertir los corazones de los padres á los hijos, y los rebeldes á la prudencia de los justos, para aparejar al Señor un pueblo apercibido.
