St. Luke 1:31-47 Jubilee Bible (JUB)

31. And, behold, thou shalt conceive in thy womb and bring forth a son and shalt call his name Jesus.

32. He shall be great and shall be called the Son of the Highest, and the Lord God shall give unto him the throne of his father David;

33. and he shall reign in the house of Jacob for ever, and of his kingdom there shall be no end.

34. Then Mary said unto the angel, How shall this be, seeing I know not a man?

35. And the angel answered and said unto her, The Holy Spirit shall come upon thee, and the power of the Highest shall overshadow thee; therefore also that holy thing which shall be born of thee shall be called the Son of God.

36. And, behold, thy relative Elisabeth, she has also conceived a son in her old age; and this is the sixth month with her, who was called barren.

37. For with God nothing is impossible.

38. Then Mary said, Behold the handmaid of the Lord; be it unto me according to thy word. And the angel departed from her.

39. And Mary arose in those days and went into the hill country with haste into a city of Juda

40. and entered into the house of Zacharias and saluted Elisabeth.

41. And it came to pass that when Elisabeth heard the salutation of Mary, the babe leaped in her womb and Elisabeth was filled with the Holy Spirit;

42. and she spoke out with a loud voice and said, Blessed art thou among women, and blessed is the fruit of thy womb.

43. And whence is this to me, that the mother of my Lord should come to me?

44. For, behold, as soon as the voice of thy salutation sounded in my ears, the babe leaped in my womb for joy.

45. And blessed is she that believed, for there shall be a performance of those things which were told her from the Lord.

46. Then Mary said, My soul magnifies the Lord,

47. and my spirit has rejoiced in God my Saving Health,
