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."

46 Disse Maria: A minha alma engrandece ao Senhor,

47 E o meu espírito alegrou-se em Deus meu Salvador,

48 Porque pôs os olhos na baixeza da sua serva. Pois de ora em diante todas as gerações me chamarão bem-aventurada,

49 Porque o Poderoso me fez grandes coisas. Santo é o seu nome,

50 E a sua misericórdia estende-se de geração em geração Sobre os que o temem.

51 Manifestou poder com o seu braço, Dissipou os que tinham pensamentos soberbos no coração;

52 Depôs os poderosos dos seus tronos E exaltou os humildes,

53 Encheu de bens os famintos E despediu vazios os ricos.

54 Socorreu a Israel, seu servo, Lembrando-se de misericórdia

55 (Como falou a nossos pais) Para com Abraão e a sua posteridade para sempre.
