46 And Mary said, My soul magnifieth the Lord,

47 and my spirit hath gladded in God, mine health [mine health-giver].

48 For he hath beheld the meekness of his handmaiden. For lo! of this all generations shall say that I am blessed.[a]

49 For he that is mighty hath done to me great things, and his name is holy.

50 And his mercy is from kindred into kindreds [from kindreds into kindreds], to men that dread him.

51 He made might in his arm, he scattered proud men with the thought of his heart.

52 He put down mighty men from their seats, and enhanced meek men.

53 He hath full-filled hungry men with goods [He hath filled hungry men with good things], and he hath left rich men void.

54 He, having mind of his mercy, took Israel, his child;

55 as he hath spoken to our fathers, to Abraham and to his seed, into worlds.
