46 A ka mea a Meri, Ka whakanui toku wairua i te Ariki,

47 E hari ana toku wairua ki te Atua, ki toku Kaiwhakaora;

48 Mona i titiro ki te iti o tana pononga; ta te mea hoki katahi ahau ka kiia e nga whakatupuranga katoa e haere ake nei, he wahine hari.

49 He nui hoki nga mahi a te Mea Kaha ki ahau; he tapu hoki tona ingoa.

50 He mahi tohu tana ki te hunga e wehi ana ki a ia, ki tenei whakatupuranga, ki tenei whakatupuranga.

51 Kua whakaputaina he kaha e ia, ara e tona ringa; nana te hunga whakakake i marara ai, i te whakaaro o o ratou ngakau.

52 Kua whakataka e ia nga piriniha i o ratou torona, a whakateiteitia ake ana te hunga iti.

53 Kua whakakiia e ia te hunga mate hiakai ki nga mea pai; kua tonoa kautia atu te hunga taonga.

54 Kua tautokona e ia a Iharaira, tana pononga, he whakamahara hoki ki tana mahi tohu;

55 Ki a Aperahama ratou ko tana whanau ake tonu atu, pera hoki me tana i korero ai ki o tatou matua.

46 Mary said,

"My soul magnifies the Lord.

47 My spirit has rejoiced in God my Savior,

48 for he has looked at the humble state of his servant.

For behold, from now on, all generations will call me blessed.

49 For he who is mighty has done great things for me.

Holy is his name.

50 His mercy is for generations and generations on those who fear him.

51 He has shown strength with his arm.

He has scattered the proud in the imagination of their hearts.

52 He has put down princes from their thrones,

and has exalted the lowly.

53 He has filled the hungry with good things.

He has sent the rich away empty.

54 He has given help to Israel, his servant, that he might remember mercy,

55 as he spoke to our fathers,

to Abraham and his offspring forever."
