May the man who brought my father the news be cursed! He’s the one who made my father very glad. He said, “You have had a baby! It’s a boy!”
She also said, “Who would have said to Abraham that Sarah would breast-feed children? But I’ve had a son by him when he is old.”
“Before I formed you in your mother’s body I chose you. Before you were born I set you apart to serve me. I appointed you to be a prophet to the nations.”
He will be a joy and delight to you. His birth will make many people very glad.
