511He has doneG4160 2mightyG2904 deedsG2904 with His armG1023; He has scatteredG1287 those who were proudG5244 in the 3thoughtsG1271 of their heartsG2588.52He has broughtG2507 downG2507 rulersG1413 from their thronesG2362, And has 4exaltedG5312 those who were humbleG5011.535He has filledG1705 the hungryG3983 with goodG18 thingsG18, And sentG1821 the richG4147 awayG1821 empty-handedG2756.54He has givenG482 helpG482 to His servantG3816 IsraelG2474, 6In remembranceG3403 of His mercyG1656,557JustG2531 as He spokeG2980 to our fathersG3962, 8To AbrahamG11 and his 9descendantsG4690 foreverG165.”
56MaryG3137 stayedG3306 with her aboutG5613 threeG5140 monthsG3376, and then returnedG5290 to her homeG3624.
57NowG1161 the timeG5550 10had comeG4092 for ElizabethG1665 to giveG5088 birthG5088, and she gaveG1080 birthG5088 to a sonG5207. 58Her neighborsG4040 and her relativesG4773 heardG191 that the LordG2962 had 1112displayedG3170 His greatG3170 mercyG1656 towardG3326 her; and they were rejoicingG4796 withG4796 her.
59And it happenedG1096 that on 13the eighthG3590 dayG2250 they cameG2064 to circumciseG4059 the childG3813, and they were going to callG2564 him ZechariahG2197, 14afterG1909 his fatherG3962. 60And yet his motherG3384 respondedG611 and saidG3004, “NoG3780 indeedG3780; but 15he shall be calledG2564 JohnG2491.” 61And they saidG3004 to her, “There is noG3762 oneG3762 amongG1537 your relativesG4772 whoG3739 is calledG2564 by this nameG3686.” 62And they 1617madeG1770 signsG1770 to his fatherG3962, as to whatG5101G302 he wantedG2309 him calledG2564. 63And he askedG154 for a tabletG4093 and wroteG1125 18as followsG3004, “19His nameG3686 is JohnG2491.” And they wereG2296 allG3956 amazedG2296.
