Luke:1:42-56
rsv@Luke:1:42 @ and she exclaimed with a loud cry, "Blessed are you among women, and blessed is the fruit of your womb!
rsv@Luke:1:43 @ And why is this granted me, that the mother of my Lord should come to me?
rsv@Luke:1:44 @ For behold, when the voice of your greeting came to my ears, the babe in my womb leaped for joy.
rsv@Luke:1:45 @ And blessed is she who believed that there would be a fulfilment of what was spoken to her from the Lord."
rsv@Luke:1:46 @ And Mary said, "My soul magnifies the Lord,
rsv@Luke:1:47 @ and my spirit rejoices in God my Savior,
rsv@Luke:1:48 @ for he has regarded the low estate of his handmaiden. For behold, henceforth all generations will call me blessed;
rsv@Luke:1:49 @ for he who is mighty has done great things for me, and holy is his name.
rsv@Luke:1:50 @ And his mercy is on those who fear him from generation to generation.
rsv@Luke:1:51 @ He has shown strength with his arm, he has scattered the proud in the imagination of their hearts,
rsv@Luke:1:52 @ he has put down the mighty from their thrones, and exalted those of low degree;
rsv@Luke:1:53 @ he has filled the hungry with good things, and the rich he has sent empty away.
rsv@Luke:1:54 @ He has helped his servant Israel, in remembrance of his mercy,
rsv@Luke:1:55 @ as he spoke to our fathers, to Abraham and to his posterity for ever."
rsv@Luke:1:56 @ And Mary remained with her about three months, and returned to her home.
