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 And Mary said, My soul doth magnify the Lord,

47 And my spirit was glad on God my Saviour,

48 Because He looked on the lowliness of His maid-servant, For, lo, henceforth call me happy shall all the generations,

49 For He who is mighty did to me great things, And holy [is] His name,

50 And His kindness [is] to generations of generations, To those fearing Him,

51 He did powerfully with His arm, He scattered abroad the proud in the thought of their heart,

52 He brought down the mighty from thrones, And He exalted the lowly,

53 The hungry He did fill with good, And the rich He sent away empty,

54 He received again Israel His servant, To remember kindness,

55 As He spake unto our fathers, To Abraham and to his seed -- to the age.
