76 Et toi, petit enfant, tu seras appelé prophète du Très-Haut; Car tu marcheras devant la face du Seigneur, pour préparer ses voies,

77 Afin de donner à son peuple la connaissance du salut Par le pardon de ses péchés,

78 Grâce aux entrailles de la miséricorde de notre Dieu, En vertu de laquelle le soleil levant nous a visités d’en haut,

79 Pour éclairer ceux qui sont assis dans les ténèbres et dans l’ombre de la mort, Pour diriger nos pas dans le chemin de la paix.
