37. For with God nothing shall be impossible.
38. And Mary said, Behold the handmaid of the Lord; be it unto me according to your 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 Judah;
40. And entered into the house of Zachariah, and greeted Elizabeth.
41. And it came to pass, that, when Elizabeth heard the greeting of Mary, the babe leaped in her womb; and Elizabeth was filled with the Holy Spirit:
42. And she spoke out with a loud voice, and said, Blessed are you among women, and blessed is the fruit of your womb.
43. And why is this granted me, that the mother of my Lord should come to me?
44. For, lo, as soon as the voice of your greeting 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. And Mary said, My soul does magnify the Lord,
47. And my spirit has rejoiced in God my Savior.
48. For he has regarded the low estate of his handmaiden: for, behold, from henceforth all generations shall call me blessed.
49. For he that is mighty has done to me great things; and holy is his name.
50. And his mercy is on them that fear him from generation to generation.
51. He has showed strength with his arm; he has scattered the proud in the imagination of their hearts.
52. He has put down the mighty from their seats, and exalted them of low degree.
