Luke 1:8
Berean Standard Bible (BSB)
One day while Zechariah’s division was on duty and he was serving as priest before God,
In context
6 Both of them were righteous in the sight of God, walking blamelessly in all the commandments and decrees of the Lord.
7 But they had no children, because Elizabeth was barren, and they were both well along in years.
8 One day while Zechariah’s division was on duty and he was serving as priest before God,
9 he was chosen by lot, according to the custom of the priesthood, to enter the temple of the Lord and burn incense.
10 And at the hour of the incense offering, the whole congregation was praying outside.
