Luke 1:39-49

³⁹Then Mary arose in those days and quickly went into the hill country, to a city in Judea.

⁴⁰She went into the house of Zechariah and greeted Elizabeth.

⁴¹Now it happened that when Elizabeth heard Mary's greeting, the baby in her womb jumped, and Elizabeth was filled with the Holy Spirit.

⁴²She raised her voice and said loudly, “Blessed are you among women, and blessed is the fruit of your womb.

⁴³Why has it happened to me that the mother of my Lord should come to me?

⁴⁴For see, when the sound of your greeting came to my ears, the baby in my womb jumped for joy.

⁴⁵Blessed is she who believed that there would be a fulfillment of the things that were told her from the Lord.”

⁴⁶Mary said, “My soul praises the Lord,

⁴⁷and my spirit has rejoiced in God my savior.

⁴⁸For he has looked at the low condition of his female servant. For see, from now on all generations will call me blessed.

⁴⁹For he who is mighty has done great things for me, and his name is holy.
