*
And He will reign over the house of Jacob forever ,
and of His kingdom there will be no end ."
*
Then Mary said to the angel , "
How can this be ,
since I do not know a man ?"
*
And the angel answered and said to her , "
The Holy Spirit will come upon you ,
and the power of the Highest will overshadow you ;
therefore ,
also ,
that Holy One who is to be born will be called the Son of God .
*
Now indeed ,
Elizabeth your relative has also conceived a son in her old age ;
and this is now the sixth month for her who was called barren .
*
For with God nothing will be impossible ."
*
Then Mary said , "
Behold the maidservant of the Lord !
Let it be to me according to your word ."
And the angel departed from her .
*
Now Mary arose in those days and went into the hill country with haste ,
to a city of Judah ,
*
and entered the house of Zacharias and greeted Elizabeth .
*
And it happened ,
when Elizabeth heard the greeting of Mary ,
that the babe leaped in her womb ;
and Elizabeth was filled with the Holy Spirit .
*
Then she spoke out with a loud voice and said , "
Blessed are you among women ,
and blessed is the fruit of your womb !
*
But why is this granted to me ,
that the mother of my Lord should come to me ?
*
For indeed ,
as soon as the voice of your greeting sounded in my ears ,
the babe leaped in my womb for joy .
*
Blessed is she who believed ,
for there will be a fulfillment of those things which were told her from the Lord ."
*
And Mary said : "
My soul magnifies the Lord ,
*
And my spirit has rejoiced in God my Savior .
*
For He has regarded the lowly state of His maidservant ;
For behold ,
henceforth all generations will call me blessed .
*
For He who is mighty has done great things for me ,
And holy is His name .
*
And His mercy is on those who fear Him From generation to generation .
*
He has shown strength with His arm ;
He has scattered the proud in the imagination of their hearts .
*
He has put down the mighty from their thrones ,
And exalted the lowly .
