May it happen to me according to thy word. And the agent departed from her. ³⁹ And having risen in these days, Mary went with haste into the hill country, into a city of Judah, ⁴⁰ and entered into the house of Zacharias and greeted Elizabeth. ⁴¹ And it came to pass, when Elizabeth heard the greeting of Mary, the babe leaped in her belly. And Elizabeth was filled of the Holy Spirit, ⁴² and she exclaimed in a great voice, and said, Blessed are thou among women, and blessed is the fruit of thy belly. ⁴³ And why is this to me, that the mother of my Lord would come to me? ⁴⁴ For lo, when the voice of thy greeting happened in my ears, the babe leaped with joy in my belly. ⁴⁵ And blessed is she who believed, because there will be a fulfillment of the things that were spoken to her from the Lord. ⁴⁶ And Mary said, My soul magnifies the Lord, ⁴⁷ and my spirit rejoices in God my Savior, ⁴⁸ because he has looked upon the lowliness of his bondmaid.
