Luke 1:15 in Context — Luke 1
13 Mais l’ange lui dit: Ne crains point, Zacharie; car ta prière a été exaucée. Ta femme Élisabeth t’enfantera un fils, et tu lui donneras le nom de Jean.
14 Il sera pour toi un sujet de joie et d’allégresse, et plusieurs se réjouiront de sa naissance.
15 Car il sera grand devant le Seigneur. Il ne boira ni vin, ni liqueur enivrante, et il sera rempli de l’Esprit-Saint dès le sein de sa mère;
16 il ramènera plusieurs des fils d’Israël au Seigneur, leur Dieu;
17 il marchera devant Dieu avec l’esprit et la puissance d’Élie, pour ramener les cœurs des pères vers les enfants, et les rebelles à la sagesse des justes, afin de préparer au Seigneur un peuple bien disposé.
