| 1:39 | And in those days, Mary, rising up, traveled quickly into the hill country, to a city of Judah. |
| 1:40 | And she entered into the house of Zechariah, and she greeted Elizabeth. |
| 1:41 | And it happened that, as Elizabeth heard the greeting of Mary, the infant leaped in her womb, and Elizabeth was filled with the Holy Spirit. |
| 1:42 | And she cried out with a loud voice and said: “Blessed are you among women, and blessed is the fruit of your womb. |
| 1:43 | And how does this concern me, so that the mother of my Lord would come to me? |
| 1:44 | For behold, as the voice of your greeting came to my ears, the infant in my womb leaped for joy. |
| 1:45 | And blessed are you who believed, for the things that were spoken to you by the Lord shall be accomplished.” |
| 1:46 | And Mary said: “My soul magnifies the Lord. |
| 1:47 | And my spirit leaps for joy in God my Saviour. |
| 1:48 | For he has looked with favor on the humility of his handmaid. For behold, from this time, all generations shall call me blessed. |
| 1:49 | For he who is great has done great things for me, and holy is his name. |
| 1:50 | And his mercy is from generation to generations for those who fear him. |
| 1:51 | He has accomplished powerful deeds with his arm. He has scattered the arrogant in the intentions of their heart. |
| 1:52 | He has deposed the powerful from their seat, and he has exalted the humble. |
| 1:53 | He has filled the hungry with good things, and the rich he has sent away empty. |
| 1:54 | He has taken up his servant Israel, mindful of his mercy, |
| 1:55 | just as he spoke to our fathers: to Abraham and to his offspring forever.” |
| 1:56 | Then Mary stayed with her for about three months. And she returned to her own house. |
