Luke 1:39-56
New King James Version
Mary Visits Elizabeth
39 Now Mary arose in those days and went into the hill country with haste, (A)to a city of Judah, 40 and entered the house of Zacharias and greeted Elizabeth. 41 And it happened, when Elizabeth heard the greeting of Mary, that the babe leaped in her womb; and Elizabeth was (B)filled with the Holy Spirit. 42 Then she spoke out with a loud voice and said, (C)“Blessed are you among women, and blessed is the fruit of your womb! 43 But why is this granted to me, that the mother of my Lord should come to me? 44 For indeed, as soon as the voice of your greeting sounded in my ears, the babe leaped in my womb for joy. 45 (D)Blessed is she who [a]believed, for there will be a fulfillment of those things which were told her from the Lord.”
The Song of Mary
46 And Mary said:
(E)“My soul [b]magnifies the Lord,
47 And my spirit has (F)rejoiced in (G)God my Savior.
48 For (H)He has regarded the lowly state of His maidservant;
For behold, henceforth (I)all generations will call me blessed.
49 For He who is mighty (J)has done great things for me,
And (K)holy is His name.
50 And (L)His mercy is on those who fear Him
From generation to generation.
51 (M)He has shown strength with His arm;
(N)He has scattered the proud in the imagination of their hearts.
52 (O)He has put down the mighty from their thrones,
And exalted the lowly.
53 He has (P)filled the hungry with good things,
And the rich He has sent away empty.
54 He has helped His (Q)servant Israel,
(R)In remembrance of His mercy,
55 (S)As He spoke to our (T)fathers,
To Abraham and to his (U)seed forever.”
56 And Mary remained with her about three months, and returned to her house.

1894 Scrivener New Testament
39 αναστασα δε μαριαμ εν ταις ημεραις ταυταις επορευθη εις την ορεινην μετα σπουδης εις πολιν ιουδα
40 και εισηλθεν εις τον οικον ζαχαριου και ησπασατο την ελισαβετ
41 και εγενετο ως ηκουσεν η ελισαβετ τον ασπασμον της μαριας εσκιρτησεν το βρεφος εν τη κοιλια αυτης και επλησθη πνευματος αγιου η ελισαβετ
42 και ανεφωνησεν φωνη μεγαλη και ειπεν ευλογημενη συ εν γυναιξιν και ευλογημενος ο καρπος της κοιλιας σου
43 και ποθεν μοι τουτο ινα ελθη η μητηρ του κυριου μου προς με
44 ιδου γαρ ως εγενετο η φωνη του ασπασμου σου εις τα ωτα μου εσκιρτησεν εν αγαλλιασει το βρεφος εν τη κοιλια μου
45 και μακαρια η πιστευσασα οτι εσται τελειωσις τοις λελαλημενοις αυτη παρα κυριου
46 και ειπεν μαριαμ μεγαλυνει η ψυχη μου τον κυριον
47 και ηγαλλιασεν το πνευμα μου επι τω θεω τω σωτηρι μου
48 οτι επεβλεψεν επι την ταπεινωσιν της δουλης αυτου ιδου γαρ απο του νυν μακαριουσιν με πασαι αι γενεαι
49 οτι εποιησεν μοι μεγαλεια ο δυνατος και αγιον το ονομα αυτου
50 και το ελεος αυτου εις γενεας γενεων τοις φοβουμενοις αυτον
51 εποιησεν κρατος εν βραχιονι αυτου διεσκορπισεν υπερηφανους διανοια καρδιας αυτων
52 καθειλεν δυναστας απο θρονων και υψωσεν ταπεινους
53 πεινωντας ενεπλησεν αγαθων και πλουτουντας εξαπεστειλεν κενους
54 αντελαβετο ισραηλ παιδος αυτου μνησθηναι ελεους
55 καθως ελαλησεν προς τους πατερας ημων τω αβρααμ και τω σπερματι αυτου εις τον αιωνα
56 εμεινεν δε μαριαμ συν αυτη ωσει μηνας τρεις και υπεστρεψεν εις τον οικον αυτης

Luke 1:39-56
Young's Literal Translation
39 And Mary having arisen in those days, went to the hill-country, with haste, to a city of Judea,
40 and entered into the house of Zacharias, and saluted Elisabeth.
41 And it came to pass, when Elisabeth heard the salutation of Mary, the babe did leap in her womb; and Elisabeth was filled with the Holy Spirit,
42 and spake out with a loud voice, and said, `Blessed [art] thou among women, and blessed [is] the fruit of thy womb;
43 and whence [is] this to me, that the mother of my Lord might come unto me?
44 for, lo, when the voice of thy salutation came to my ears, leap in gladness did the babe in my womb;
45 and happy [is] she who did believe, for there shall be a completion to the things spoken to her from the Lord.'
46 And Mary said, `My soul doth magnify the Lord,
47 And my spirit was glad on God my Saviour,
48 Because He looked on the lowliness of His maid-servant, For, lo, henceforth call me happy shall all the generations,
49 For He who is mighty did to me great things, And holy [is] His name,
50 And His kindness [is] to generations of generations, To those fearing Him,
51 He did powerfully with His arm, He scattered abroad the proud in the thought of their heart,
52 He brought down the mighty from thrones, And He exalted the lowly,
53 The hungry He did fill with good, And the rich He sent away empty,
54 He received again Israel His servant, To remember kindness,
55 As He spake unto our fathers, To Abraham and to his seed -- to the age.'
56 And Mary remained with her about three months, and turned back to her house.
