Luke 1:46-68

46AndG2532 MaryG3137 saidG3004, MyG1473 soulG3588G5590 doth magnifyG3170 the LordG3588G2962,

47AndG2532 myG1473 spiritG3588G4151 hath rejoicedG21 inG1909 GodG3588G2316 myG1473 SaviourG3588G4990.

48ForG3754 he hath regardedG1914 the low estateG3588G5014 ofG3588G1399 hisG846 handmaidenG3588G1399: forG1063, beholdG3708, fromG575 henceforthG3568 allG3956 generationsG3588G1074 shall callG3106 meG1473 blessedG3106.

49ForG3754 he that is mightyG1415 hath doneG4160 to meG1473 great thingsG3167; andG2532 holyG40 is hisG846 nameG3588G3686.

50AndG2532 hisG846 mercyG1656 is on them that fearG5399 himG846 fromG1519 generationG1074 to generationG1074.

51He hath shewedG4160 strengthG2904 withG1722 hisG846 armG1023; he hath scatteredG1287 the proudG5244 in the imaginationG1271 ofG2588 theirG846 heartsG2588.

52He hath put downG2507 the mightyG1413 fromG575 their seatsG2362, andG2532 exaltedG5312 them of low degreeG5011.

53He hath filledG1705 the hungryG3983 with good thingsG18; andG2532 the richG4147 he hath sentG1821 emptyG2756 awayG1821.

54He hath holpenG482 hisG846 servantG3816 IsraelG2474, in remembranceG3403 ofG1656 his mercyG1656;

55AsG2531 he spakeG2980 toG4314 ourG1473 fathersG3588G3962, to AbrahamG11, andG2532 toG3588G4690 hisG846 seedG3588G4690 forG1519 everG3588G165.

56AndG1161 MaryG3137 abodeG3306 withG4862 herG846 aboutG5616 threeG5140 monthsG3376, andG2532 returnedG5290 toG1519 her ownG846 houseG3588G3624.

57NowG1161 Elisabeth’sG1665 fullG4130 timeG3588G5550 cameG4130 that sheG846 should be deliveredG5088; andG2532 she brought forthG1080 a sonG5207.

58AndG2532 herG846 neighboursG4040 andG2532 herG846 cousinsG4773 heardG191 howG3754 the LordG2962 had shewed greatG3170 mercyG3588G1656 uponG3326 herG846; andG2532 they rejoicedG4796 with herG846.

59AndG2532 it came to pass, thatG1096 onG1722 the eighthG3590 dayG2250 they cameG2064 to circumciseG4059 the childG3588G3813; andG2532 they calledG2564 himG846 ZachariasG2197, afterG1909 the nameG3588G3686 ofG3588G3962 hisG846 fatherG3588G3962.

60AndG2532 hisG846 motherG3588G3384 answeredG611 and saidG3004, NotG3780 so; butG235 he shall be calledG2564 JohnG2491.

61AndG2532 they saidG3004 untoG4314 herG846, There isG1510 noneG3762 ofG1722 thyG4771 kindredG3588G4772 thatG3739 is calledG2564 byG3588G3686 thisG3778 nameG3588G3686.

62AndG1161 they made signsG1770 toG3588G3962 hisG846 fatherG3588G3962, howG5101 he would haveG2309 himG846 calledG2564.

63AndG2532 he askedG154 for a writing tabletG4093, and wroteG1125, sayingG3004, HisG846 nameG3588G3686 isG1510 JohnG2491. AndG2532 they marvelledG2296 allG3956.

64AndG1161 hisG846 mouthG3588G4750 was openedG455 immediatelyG3916, andG2532 hisG846 tongueG3588G1100 loosed, andG2532 he spakeG2980, and praisedG2127 GodG3588G2316.

65AndG2532 fearG5401 cameG1096 onG1909 allG3956 that dwelt round aboutG4039 themG846: andG2532 allG3956 theseG3778 sayingsG3588G4487 were noised abroadG1255 throughoutG1722 allG3650 the hill countryG3714 of JudæaG3588G2449.

66AndG2532 allG3956 they that heardG191 them laidG5087 them upG5087 inG1722 theirG846 heartsG3588G2588, sayingG3004, WhatG5101 mannerG687 of childG3588G3813 shallG1510 thisG3778 beG1510! AndG2532 the handG5495 of the LordG2962 wasG1510 withG3326 himG846.

67AndG2532 hisG846 fatherG3588G3962 ZachariasG2197 was filledG4130 with theG4151 HolyG40 GhostG4151, andG2532 prophesiedG4395, sayingG3004,

68BlessedG2128 be the LordG2962 GodG3588G2316 of Israel; forG3754 he hath visitedG1980 andG2532 redeemedG3085 hisG846 peopleG3588G2992,
