45How fortunate you are, because you are convinced that the Lord will do what he has promised you!”
46Mary replied, “How I praise the Lord!
47I am so happy with God my Savior,
48because he decided that I, his servant, was worthy of his consideration, despite my humble background. From now on every generation will say I was blessed.
49God Almighty has done great things for me; his name is holy.
50His mercy lasts for generation after generation to those who respect him.
