* Then Mary said : »My soul extols the Lord , * And my spirit triumphs in God my Saviour ; * Because He has not turned from His maidservant in her lowly position ; For from this time forward all generations will account me happy , * Because the mighty One has done great things for me –Holy is His name !– * And His compassion is , generation after generation , Upon those who fear Him . * He has manifested His supreme strength . He has scattered those who were haughty in the thoughts of their hearts . * He has cast monarchs down from their thrones , And exalted men of low estate . * The hungry He has satisfied with choice gifts , But the rich He has sent empty-handed away . * His servant Israel He has helped , Remembering His compassion – * In fulfillment of His promises to our forefathers –For Abraham and his posterity for ever .« * So Mary stayed with Elizabeth about three months , and then returned home .
