AV Translation:

65 And fear came on all that dwelt round about them: and all these sayings were noised abroad throughout all the hill country of Judaea.

66 And all they that heard them laid them up in their hearts, saying, What manner of child shall this be! And the hand of the Lord was with him.

1901 ASV Translation:

65 And fear came on all that dwelt round about them: and all these sayings were noised abroad throughout all the hill country of Judaea.

66 And all that heard them laid them up in their heart, saying, What then shall this child be? For the hand of the Lord was with him.

Textual Issues:

There is one minor variation between the Textus Receptus and the Nestle/Aland 26 in verse 66. The Nestle/Aland 26 has the additional word "for" in the phrase "for the hand of the Lord was with him", which the Textus Receptus does not have. The Nestle/Aland 26 could be translated "for, indeed, the hand of the Lord was with him". The ASV translators, who used the text behind the Nestle/Aland 26, apparently decided to ignore the "and" in favor of the "for" -- something they should not have done.
