³³ and he shall reign over the house of Jacob for ever; and of his kingdom there shall be no end.

³⁴ And Mary said unto the angel, How shall this be, seeing I know not a man?

³⁵ And the angel answered and said unto her, The Holy Spirit shall come upon thee, and the power of the Most High shall overshadow thee: wherefore also the holy thing which is begotten shall be called the Son of God.

³⁶ And behold, Elisabeth thy kinswoman, she also hath conceived a son in her old age; and this is the sixth month with her that was called barren.

³⁷ For no word from God shall be void of power.

³⁸ And Mary said, Behold, the handmaid of the Lord; be it unto me according to thy word. And the angel departed from her.

³⁹ And Mary arose in these days and went into the hill country with haste, into a city of Judah;

⁴⁰ and entered into the house of Zacharias and saluted Elisabeth.

³³ And he shall reign over the house of Jacob for ever; and of his kingdom there shall be no end.

³⁴ Then said Mary unto the angel, How shall this be, seeing I know not a man?

³⁵ And the angel answered and said unto her, The Holy Ghost shall come upon thee, and the power of the Highest shall overshadow thee: therefore also that holy thing which shall be born of thee shall be called the Son of God.

³⁶ And, behold, thy cousin Elisabeth, she hath also conceived a son in her old age: and this is the sixth month with her, who was called barren.

³⁷ For with God nothing shall be impossible.

³⁸ And Mary said, Behold the handmaid of the Lord; be it unto me according to thy word. And the angel departed from her.

³⁹ And Mary arose in those days, and went into the hill country with haste, into a city of Juda;

⁴⁰ And entered into the house of Zacharias, and saluted Elisabeth.

³³ And he shall reign over the house of Jacob for ever; and of his kingdom there shall be no end.

³⁴ Then said Mary unto the angel, How shall this be, seeing I know not a man?

³⁵ And the angel answered and said unto her, The Holy Ghost shall come upon thee, and the power of the Highest shall overshadow thee: therefore also that holy thing which shall be born of thee shall be called the Son of God.

³⁶ And, behold, thy cousin Elisabeth, she hath also conceived a son in her old age: and this is the sixth month with her, who was called barren.

³⁹ And Mary arose in those days, and went into the hill country with haste, into a city of Juda;

⁴⁰ And entered into the house of Zacharias, and saluted Elisabeth.

³³ and he shall reign over the house of Jacob for ever; and of his kingdom there shall be no end.

³⁴ And Mary said unto the angel, How shall this be, seeing I know not a man?

³⁶ And behold, Elisabeth thy kinswoman, she also hath conceived a son in her old age: and this is the sixth month with her that was called barren.

³⁹ And Mary arose in these days and went into the hill country with haste, into a city of Judah;

⁴⁰ and entered into the house of Zacharias and saluted Elisabeth.

³³ He will be the King of the Jews, the descendants MTY of your ancestor Jacob, forever. He will rule as king forever!”

³⁴ Then Mary said to the angel, “I am a virgin, so how can I have a baby?”

³⁵ The angel replied, “The Holy Spirit will come to you; the power of God MTY/EUP will overshadow you and enable you to become pregnant. So the child you will bear will be completely set apart {give himself completely} to obey God, and he will be called { people will say that he is} ◄the Son of God/the man who is also God►.

³⁶ I also need to tell you something else. Your cousin Elizabeth is very old, and it was thought { people said} that she could not bear any children. But she has been pregnant EUP for almost six months, and will bear a son!

³⁷ You should not be surprised at that, because God can do everything!”

³⁸ Then Mary said, “All right, I want to serve ◄the Lord/God►, so may what you (sg) have said about me come true!” Then the angel left her.

³⁹ Very soon after that, Mary got ready and went quickly to a town in the highlands of Judea district where Zechariah lived.

⁴⁰ She entered his house and greeted his wife Elizabeth.

³³ and he will reign over the house of Jacob forever. There will be no end to his Kingdom.”

³⁴ Mary said to the angel, “How can this be, seeing I am a virgin?”

³⁵ The angel answered her, “The Holy Spirit will come on you, and the power of the Most High will overshadow you. Therefore also the holy one who is born from you will be called the Son of God.

³⁶ Behold, Elizabeth your relative also has conceived a son in her old age; and this is the sixth month with her who was called barren.

³⁷ For nothing spoken by God is impossible.”

³⁸ Mary said, “Behold, the servant of the Lord; let it be done to me according to your word.” Then the angel departed from her.

³⁹ Mary arose in those days and went into the hill country with haste, into a city of Judah,

⁴⁰ and entered into the house of Zacharias and greeted Elizabeth.

³³ and he will reign over the house of Jacob forever. There will be no end to his Kingdom.”

³⁴ Mary said to the angel, “How can this be, seeing I am a virgin?”

³⁵ The angel answered her, “The Holy Spirit will come on you, and the power of the Most High will overshadow you. Therefore also the holy one who is born from you will be called the Son of God.

³⁶ Behold, Elizabeth your relative also has conceived a son in her old age; and this is the sixth month with her who was called barren.

³⁷ For nothing spoken by God is impossible.”

³⁸ Mary said, “Behold, the servant of the Lord; let it be done to me according to your word.” Then the angel departed from her.

³⁹ Mary arose in those days and went into the hill country with haste, into a city of Judah,

⁴⁰ and entered into the house of Zacharias and greeted Elizabeth.

³³ and he will reign over the house of Jacob forever. There will be no end to his Kingdom.”

³⁴ Mary said to the angel, “How can this be, seeing I am a virgin?”

³⁵ The angel answered her, “The Holy Spirit will come on you, and the power of the Most High will overshadow you. Therefore also the holy one who is born from you will be called the Son of God.

³⁶ Behold, Elizabeth your relative also has conceived a son in her old age; and this is the sixth month with her who was called barren.

³⁷ For nothing spoken by God is impossible.”

³⁸ Mary said, “Behold, the servant of the Lord; let it be done to me according to your word.” Then the angel departed from her.

³⁹ Mary arose in those days and went into the hill country with haste, into a city of Judah,

⁴⁰ and entered into the house of Zacharias and greeted Elizabeth.

³³ He will have rule over the house of Jacob for ever, and of his kingdom there will be no end.

³⁴ And Mary said to the angel, How may this be, because I have had no knowledge of a man?

³⁵ And the angel in answer said to her, The Holy Spirit will come on you, and the power of the Most High will come to rest on you, and so that which will come to birth will be named holy, Son of God.

³⁶ Even now Elisabeth, who is of your family, is to be a mother, though she is old: and this is the sixth month with her who was without children.

³⁷ For there is nothing which God is not able to do.

³⁸ And Mary said: I am the servant of the Lord; may it be to me as you say. And the angel went away.

³⁹ Then Mary got up and went quickly into the high lands, to a town of Judah;

⁴⁰ And went into the house of Zacharias and took Elisabeth in her arms.

³³ and he shall reign over the house of Jacob for the ages, and of his kingdom there shall not be an end.

³⁴ But Mary said to the angel, How shall this be, since I know not a man?

³⁵ And the angel answering said to her, The Holy Spirit shall come upon thee, and power of the Highest overshadow thee, wherefore the holy thing also which shall be born shall be called Son of God.

³⁶ And behold, Elizabeth, thy kinswoman, she also has conceived a son in her old age, and this is the sixth month to her that was called barren:

³⁷ for nothing shall be impossible with God.

³⁸ And Mary said, Behold the bondmaid of the Lord; be it to me according to thy word. And the angel departed from her.

³⁹ And Mary, rising up in those days, went into the hill country with haste, to a city of Judah,

⁴⁰ and entered into the house of Zacharias, and saluted Elizabeth.

³³ And of his kingdom there shall be no end.

³⁴ And Mary said to the angel: How shall this be done, because I know not man?

³⁵ And the angel answering, said to her: The Holy Ghost shall come upon thee, and the power of the most High shall overshadow thee. And therefore also the Holy which shall be born of thee shall be called the Son of God.

³⁶ And behold thy cousin Elizabeth, she also hath conceived a son in her old age; and this is the sixth month with her that is called barren:

³⁷ Because no word shall be impossible with God.

³⁸ And Mary said: Behold the handmaid of the Lord; be it done to me according to thy word. And the angel departed from her.

³⁹ And Mary rising up in those days, went into the hill country with haste into a city of Juda.

⁴⁰ And she entered into the house of Zachary, and saluted Elizabeth.

³³ And He shall reign over the house of Jacob forever, and of His kingdom there shall be no end.”

³⁴ Then Mary said to the angel, “How can this be, since I do not know a man?”

³⁵ And the angel answered and said to her, “The Holy Spirit shall come upon you, and the power of the Most High shall overshadow you; therefore, also, that holy child which is to be born shall be called the Son of God.

³⁶ And behold, Elizabeth your relative has also conceived a son in her old age; and this is now the sixth month for she who was called barren.

³⁷ For with God nothing shall be impossible.”

³⁸ Then Mary said, “Behold the maidservant of the Lord! May it be to me according to your word.” And the angel departed from her.

³⁹ Now Mary rose up in those days and traveled into the hill country with haste, to a city of Judah,

⁴⁰ and entered the house of Zacharias and greeted Elizabeth.

³³ and He will reign over the house of Jacob into the ages; indeed, of His kingdom there will be no end!”

³⁴ So Mary said to the angel, “How shall this be, since I do not know a man?”

³⁵ In answer the angel said to her: “Holy Spirit will come upon you and the power of the Most High will hover over you; precisely for this reason the holy One who is to be born will be called ‘Son of God’!

³⁶ Furthermore, your relative Elizabeth, she has actually conceived a son in her old age and this is now the sixth month for her who was called barren;

³⁷ because any word spoken by God will be possible.”

³⁸ So Mary said: “Yes, I am the Lord's slave! Let it happen to me according to your word.” And the angel departed from her.

³⁹ Then Mary quickly got ready and went into the hill country in those days, to a town of Judah,

⁴⁰ and entered the house of Zacharias and saluted Elizabeth.

³³ and he will reign over the house of Jacob forever. His kingdom will never come to an end.”

³⁴ “How is this possible?” Mary asked. “I'm still a virgin.”

³⁵ He replied, “The Holy Spirit will come upon you, and the power of the Most High will cover you. The baby who is to be born is holy, and will be called the Son of God.

³⁶ And Elizabeth, your relative, even she is pregnant in her old age. The woman that people said couldn't have children is already six months pregnant.

³⁷ Nothing is impossible for God.”

³⁸ “Here I am, ready to be the Lord's servant,” said Mary. “May it happen to me just as you said.” Then the angel left her.

³⁹ A little while later, Mary got herself ready and hurried up into the hills of Judea, to the town where

⁴⁰ Zechariah's house was. She called out to Elizabeth as she went in.

³³ And hee shall reigne ouer the house of Iacob for euer, and of his kingdome shall bee none ende.

³⁴ Then sayde Marie vnto the Angel, How shall this be, seeing I knowe not man?

³⁵ And the Angel answered, and said vnto her, The holy Ghost shall come vpon thee, and the power of the most High shall ouershadowe thee: therefore also that holy thing which shall bee borne of thee, shall be called the Sonne of God.

³⁶ And behold, thy cousin Elisabet, she hath also conceiued a sonne in her olde age: and this is her sixt moneth, which was called barren.

³⁷ For with God shall nothing be vnpossible.

³⁸ Then Marie said, Behold the seruant of the Lord: be it vnto me according to thy woorde. So the Angel departed from her.

³⁹ And Marie arose in those daies, and went into ye hil countrey with hast to a citie of Iuda,

⁴⁰ And entred into the house of Zacharias, and saluted Elisabet.

³³ and he shall reign over the house of Jacob for ever; and of his kingdom there shall be no end.

³⁵ And the angel answered and said unto her, The Holy Ghost shall come upon thee, and the power of the Highest shall overshadow thee: therefore also that holy thing which shall be born of thee shall be called the Son of God.

³⁶ And behold, thy cousin Elisabeth, she hath also conceived a son in her old age: and this is the sixth month with her, who was called barren.

³⁷ For with God nothing shall be unpossible.

³⁸ And Mary said, Behold the handmaid of the Lord; be it unto me according to thy word. And the angel departed from her.

⁴⁰ and entered into the house of Zacharias, and saluted Elisabeth.

³³ and he shall reign over the house of Jacob for ever; and of his kingdom there shall be no end.

³⁴ Then said Mary to the angel, How shall this be, since I know not a man?

³⁵ And the angel answering said to her, The Holy Spirit will come upon thee, and the power of the Most High will overshadow thee; wherefore the holy one that is to be born will be called the Son of God.

³⁶ And lo! Elizabeth, thy kinswoman, she also hath conceived a son in her old age; and this is the sixth month with her who is called barren.

³⁷ For nothing will be impossible with God.

³⁸ And Mary said, Lo, the handmaid of the Lord! May it be to me according to thy word. And the angel departed from her.

³⁹ And Mary arose and went in those days into the hill-country with haste, into a city of Judah.

⁴⁰ And she entered the house of Zachariah, and saluted Elizabeth.

³³ and he will reign over the descendants of Jacob for ever; And to his kingdom there will be no end.”

³⁴ “How can this be?” Mary asked the angel. “For I have no husband.”

³⁵ “The Holy Spirit will descend on you,” answered the angel, “and the Power of the Most High will overshadow you; and therefore the child will be called ‘holy,’ and ‘Son of God.’

³⁶ And Elizabeth, your cousin, is herself also expecting a son in her old age; and it is now the sixth month with her, though she is called barren;

³⁷ for no promise from God will fail to be fulfilled.”

³⁸ “I am the servant of the Lord,” exclaimed Mary; “let it be with me as you have said.” Then the angel left her.

³⁹ Soon after this Mary set out, and made her way quickly into the hill-country, to a town in Judah;

⁴⁰ and there she went into Zechariah's house and greeted Elizabeth.

³³ and he will reign over the descendants of Jacob for ever; And to his kingdom there will be no end.”

³⁴ “How can this be?” Mary asked the angel. “For I have no husband.”

³⁵ “The Holy Spirit will descend on you,” answered the angel, “and the Power of the Most High will overshadow you; and therefore the child will be called ‘holy,’ and ‘Son of God.’

³⁶ And Elizabeth, your cousin, is herself also expecting a son in her old age; and it is now the sixth month with her, though she is called barren;

³⁷ for no promise from God will fail to be fulfilled.”

³⁸ “I am the servant of the Lord,” exclaimed Mary; “let it be with me as you have said.” Then the angel left her.

⁴⁰ and there she went into Zechariah's house and greeted Elizabeth.

³³ and he will reign over the house of Jacob Supplanter forever. There will be no end to his Kingdom.”

³⁴ Mary Rebellion said to the angel, “How can this be, seeing I am a virgin?”

³⁵ The angel answered her, “The Ruach Kodesh Holy Spirit will come on you, and the power of the Elyon Most High will overshadow you. Therefore also the holy one who is born from you will be called the Ben-Elohim ·Son of Elohim God·.

³⁶ Behold, Elizabeth My God oath, your relative, also has conceived a son in her old age; and this is the sixth month with her who was called barren.

³⁷ For nothing spoken by God is impossible.”

³⁸ Mary Rebellion said, “Behold, the servant of MarYah Master Yahweh; let it be done to me according to your word.” The angel departed from her.

³⁹ Mary Rebellion arose in those days and went into the hill country with haste, into a city of Judah Praised,

⁴⁰ and entered into the house of Zacharias Remembered by Yah and greeted Elizabeth My God oath.

³⁴ Mary said, “But I’m not married. How will I get a baby?”

³⁵ Gabriel said, “The Holy Spirit will come to you, and God’s power will come over you and give you a baby. Your baby will be real special, and people will say he is God’s son.

³⁶ And you know your cousin Elizabeth? Everyone reckoned she is too old to have a baby, but now she is carrying one inside her. She has been carrying it for the last 6 months, and soon she will have a baby.

³⁷ You see, God can do anything. Nothing is too hard for him.”

³⁸ Mary said, “All right then, I will do whatever God wants. I want everything to happen just like you have said.” Then Gabriel left her.

³⁹ A few days later Mary got up and quickly went south to a town in the hilly part of the country called Judea.

⁴⁰ Zechariah and Elizabeth lived in that town. Mary went to their house, and went in and said, “Hello cousin” to Elizabeth.

³³ and he shall raygne over the housse of Iacob forever and of his kyngdome shalbe none ende.
