He will be a joy and delight to you, and many will rejoice because of his birth,
15 erit enim magnus coram Domino et vinum et sicera non bibet et Spiritu Sancto replebitur adhuc ex utero matris suae

16 et multos filiorum Israhel convertet ad Dominum Deum ipsorum
16
He will bring back many of the people of Israel to the Lord their God.
17 et ipse praecedet ante illum in spiritu et virtute Heliae ut convertat corda patrum in filios et incredibiles ad prudentiam iustorum parare Domino plebem perfectam
17
And he will go on before the Lord, in the spirit and power of Elijah, to turn the hearts of the parents to their children and the disobedient to the wisdom of the righteous—to make ready a people prepared for the Lord.”
