In those days, Mary rising up, went unto the hill country with speed into a city of Juda. And she entered into the house of Zacharie, and saluted Elizabeth. And it came to pass; as Elizabeth heard the salutation of Mary, the infant did leap in her womb. And Elizabeth was replenished with the Holy Ghost: and she cried out with a loud voice, and said, Blessed art thou among women, and blessed is the fruit of thy womb. And whence is this to me, that the mother of my Lord doth come to me? For behold as the voice of thy salutation sounded in mine ears, the infant in my womb did leap for joy. And Blessed is she that believed because those things shall be accomplished that were spoken to her by our Lord. And Mary said: MY Soul doth magnify our Lord: And my spirit hath rejoiced in God my Saviour. Because he hath regarded the humility of his handmaid; for behold from hence forth all generations shall call me blessed. Because he that is mighty hath done great things to me: and holy is his name. And his mercy from generation unto generations, to them that fear him. He hath shewed might in his arm: he hath dispersed the proud in the conceit of their heart. He hath deposed the mighty from their seat, & hath exalted the humble. The hungry he hath filled with good things: and the rich he hath sent away empty. He hath received Israel his child, being mindful of his mercy, As he spake to our fathers, to Abraham and his seed for ever. And Mary tarried with her about three months: and she returned into her house.
