InG1722 thoseG3778 daysG2250 MaryG3137 got readyG450 and hurriedG4198G3326G4710 toG1519 a townG4172 inG1519 theG3588 hill countryG3714 of JudahG2448, 40where she enteredG1525G1519 theG3588 homeG3624 of ZechariahG2197 andG2532 greetedG782 ElizabethG1665.

WhenG1096G5613 ElizabethG1665 heardG191 Mary’sG3137 greetingG783, theG3588 babyG1025 leapedG4640 inG1722 herG846 wombG2836, andG2532 ElizabethG1665 was filledG4130 with the HolyG40 SpiritG4151. 42In a loudG3173 voiceG2906 she exclaimedG400G2532G2036, “Blessed areG2127 youG4771 amongG1722 womenG1135, andG2532 blessed isG2127 theG3588 fruitG2590 ofG3588 yourG4771 wombG2836! 43AndG2532 whyG4159 am IG1473 soG3778 honored, thatG2443 theG3588 motherG3384 ofG3588 myG1473 LordG2962 should comeG2064 toG4314 meG1473? 44ForG1063 as soonG2400 asG5613 theG3588 soundG5456 ofG3588 yourG4771 greetingG783 reachedG1096G1519 myG1473 earsG3775, theG3588 babyG1025 inG1722 myG1473 wombG2836 leapedG4640 forG1722 joyG20. 45BlessedG3107 is she whoG3588 has believedG4100 thatG3754 the Lord’sG2962 wordG3588G2980 to herG846 will beG1510 fulfilledG5050.”

46ThenG2532 MaryG3137 saidG2036:

“MyG1473 soulG5590 magnifiesG3170 theG3588 LordG2962,47andG2532 myG1473 spiritG4151 rejoicesG21 inG1909 GodG2316 myG1473 SaviorG4990!48ForG3754 He has looked with favorG1914 onG1909 theG3588 humble stateG5014 ofG3588 HisG846 servantG1399.FromG575 now onG3568 allG3956 generationsG1074 will call me blessedG1063G2400G1473G3106.49ForG3754 theG3588 Mighty OneG1415 has doneG4160 great thingsG3173 for meG1473.HolyG40 is HisG846 nameG3686.50HisG846 mercyG1656 extends to thoseG3588 who fearG5399 HimG846,from generationG1074 toG2532 generationG1074.51He has performedG4160 mighty deedsG2904 withG1722 HisG846 armG1023;He has scatteredG1287 those who are proudG5244in the thoughtsG1271 of theirG846 heartsG2588.52He has brought downG2507 rulersG1413 fromG575 their thronesG2362,but has exaltedG5312 the humbleG5011.53He has filledG1705 the hungryG3983 with good thingsG18,but has sentG1821 the rich awayG4147 emptyG2756.54He has helpedG482 HisG846 servantG3816 IsraelG2474,rememberingG3403 to be mercifulG1656,55asG2531 He promisedG2980 toG4314 ourG1473 fathersG3962,to AbrahamG11 andG2532 hisG846 descendantsG4690 foreverG1519G3588G165.”
