Luke 1:47-55

47And 1my spirit has rejoiced in 2God my Savior.48For 3He has had regard for the humble state of His bond-servant; For behold, from now on all generations will 4call me 5blessed.49For the Mighty One has done great things for me; And holy is His name.50 6And His mercy is to generation 7after generation Toward those who fear Him.51 8He has done 9mighty deeds with His arm; He has scattered those who were proud in the 10thoughts of their hearts.52He has brought down rulers from their thrones, And has 11exalted those who were humble.53 12He has filled the hungry with good things, And sent the rich away empty-handed.54He has given help to His servant Israel, 13In remembrance of His mercy,55 14Just as He spoke to our fathers, 15To Abraham and his 16descendants forever.”
