*
And Mary said ,
Behold the handmaid of the Lord ;
be it to me according to your word .
And the angel departed from her .
*
And Mary arose in those days ,
and went into the hill country with haste ,
into a city of Juda ;
*
And entered into the house of Zacharias ,
and saluted Elisabeth .
*
And it came to pass ,
that ,
when Elisabeth heard the salutation of Mary ,
the babe leaped in her womb ;
and Elisabeth was filled with the Holy Ghost :
*
And she spoke out with a loud voice ,
and said ,
Blessed are you among women ,
and blessed is the fruit of your womb .
*
And what is this to me ,
that the mother of my Lord should come to me ?
*
For ,
see ,
as soon as the voice of your salutation sounded in my ears ,
the babe leaped in my womb for joy .
*
And blessed is she that believed :
for there shall be a performance of those things which were told her from the Lord .
*
And Mary said ,
My soul does magnify the Lord ,
*
And my spirit has rejoiced in God my Savior .
*
For he has regarded the low estate of his handmaiden :
for ,
behold ,
from now on all generations shall call me blessed .
*
For he that is mighty has done to me great things ;
and holy is his name .
*
And his mercy is on them that fear him from generation to generation .
*
He has showed strength with his arm ;
he has scattered the proud in the imagination of their hearts .
*
He has put down the mighty from their seats ,
and exalted them of low degree .
*
He has filled the hungry with good things ;
and the rich he has sent empty away .
*
He has helped his servant Israel ,
in remembrance of his mercy ;
*
As he spoke to our fathers ,
to Abraham ,
and to his seed for ever .
*
And Mary stayed with her about three months ,
and returned to her own house .
