Luke 1:20-22

Expanded Bible

²⁰ Now, ·listen [^Llook; ^Tbehold]! You will [^Lbe silent and] not be able to speak until the day these things happen, because you did not believe ·what I told you [^Lmy words]. ·But they will really happen [^L…which will be fulfilled at their appointed time].”

²¹ Outside, the people were still waiting for Zechariah and were ·surprised that [wondering why] he was ·staying so long [delayed] in the Temple. ²² When Zechariah came outside, he could not speak to them, and they knew he had seen a vision in the Temple. He could only ·make signs [motion; gesture] to them and remained unable to speak.
