heard the greeting of Mary that the babe leaped in her womb; and Elizabeth was filled with
the Holy Spirit.
42 Then she spoke
out with a loud voice and said, "Blessed are you among women, and
blessed is the fruit of your womb! But why is this granted to me, that the
mother of my Lord should come to me? For indeed, as soon as
the voice of your greeting sounded in my ears, the babe leaped in my womb for
joy. Blessed is she who believed, for there will be a fulfillment of
those things which were told her from the Lord."
The Song of Mary
46 And Mary
said: "My soul magnifies the Lord, and my spirit has rejoiced in God my
Savior. For He has regarded the lowly state of His maidservant; For behold, henceforth all generations will call me blessed.
- For He who is mighty has done great things for
me, And holy is His name.
- And His mercy is on those who fear Him From
generation to generation.
- He has shown strength with His arm; He has
scattered the proud in the imagination of their hearts.
- He has put down the mighty from their thrones, And exalted the lowly.
- He has filled the hungry with good things, And the rich He has sent away empty.
- He has helped His servant Israel, In
remembrance of His mercy,
- As He spoke to our fathers, To Abraham and to his
seed forever."
56 And Mary
remained with her about three months, and returned to her house.
