Readings for Celebrating Advent
Mary Rejoices Over God Her Savior
46 And Mary said, “My soul magnifies[a] the Lord, 47 and my spirit rejoiced-greatly over God my Savior. 48 Because He looked-upon[b] the lowliness[c] of His slave, for behold— from now on, all generations will consider me blessed[d], 49 because the Powerful One did great things for me. And His name is holy. 50 And His mercy to generations and generations is on the ones fearing Him. 51 He did a mighty-deed[e] with His arm. He scattered ones proud[f] in the thought[g] of their heart. 52 He brought-down rulers from their thrones, and lifted-up lowly ones. 53 He filled ones being hungry with good things, and sent ones being rich away empty. 54 He helped Israel His servant so that He might remember[h] mercy, 55 just as He spoke to our fathers— to Abraham, and to his seed forever”.
