46 And Mary said,

47 My soul doth magnify the Lord, And my spirit hath rejoiced in God my Saviour.

48 For he hath regarded the low estate of his handmaiden: for behold from henceforth all generations shall call me blessed.

49 For he that is mighty hath 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 hath wrought strength with his arm; he hath scattered the proud in the imagination of their hearts.

52 He hath put down the mighty from their thrones, and exalted them of low degree.

53 He hath filled the hungry with good things, but sent the rich empty away.

54 He hath helped his servant Israel,

55 in remembrance of his mercy, As he spoke to our fathers, to Abraham and to his seed for ever.
