They (A)covet fields and take them by violence,
Also houses, and seize them.
So they oppress a man and his house,
A man and his inheritance.

Therefore thus says the Lord:

“Behold, against this (B)family I am devising (C)disaster,
From which you cannot remove your necks;
Nor shall you walk haughtily,
For this is an evil time.
In that day one shall take up a proverb against you,
And (D)lament with a bitter lamentation, saying:
‘We are utterly destroyed!
He has changed the [a]heritage of my people;
How He has removed it from me!
To [b]a turncoat He has divided our fields.’ ”

Therefore you will have no [c]one to determine boundaries by lot
In the assembly of the Lord.

Christ Our Peace

14 For He Himself is our peace, who has made both one, and has broken down the middle wall of separation, 15 having abolished in His flesh the enmity, that is, the law of commandments contained in ordinances, so as to create in Himself one (A)new man from the two, thus making peace, 16 and that He might (B)reconcile them both to God in one body through the cross, thereby (C)putting to death the enmity. 17 And He came and preached peace to you who were afar off and to those who were near. 18 For (D)through Him we both have access (E)by one Spirit to the Father.

41 And it happened, when Elizabeth heard the greeting of Mary, that the babe leaped in her womb; and Elizabeth was (A)filled with the Holy Spirit. 42 Then she spoke out with a loud voice and said, (B)“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 (C)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:

(D)“My soul [b]magnifies the Lord,
47 And my spirit has (E)rejoiced in (F)God my Savior.
48 For (G)He has regarded the lowly state of His maidservant;
For behold, henceforth (H)all generations will call me blessed.
49 For He who is mighty (I)has done great things for me,
And (J)holy is His name.
50 And (K)His mercy is on those who fear Him
From generation to generation.
51 (L)He has shown strength with His arm;
(M)He has scattered the proud in the imagination of their hearts.
52 (N)He has put down the mighty from their thrones,
And exalted the lowly.
53 He has (O)filled the hungry with good things,
And the rich He has sent away empty.
54 He has helped His (P)servant Israel,
(Q)In remembrance of His mercy,
55 (R)As He spoke to our (S)fathers,
To Abraham and to his (T)seed forever.”
