42:001:041 And it came to pass, that, when Elisabeth heard the salutation
of Mary, the babe leaped in her womb; and Elisabeth was filled
with the Holy Ghost:
42:001:042 And she spake out with a loud voice, and said, Blessed art
thou among women, and blessed is the fruit of thy womb.
42:001:043 And whence is this to me, that the mother of my Lord should
come to me?
42:001:044 For, lo, as soon as the voice of thy salutation sounded in
mine ears, the babe leaped in my womb for joy.
42:001:045 And blessed is she that believed: for there shall be a
performance of those things which were told her from the Lord.
42:001:046 And Mary said, My soul doth magnify the Lord,
42:001:047 And my spirit hath rejoiced in God my Saviour.
42:001:048 For he hath regarded the low estate of his handmaiden: for,
behold, from henceforth all generations shall call me blessed.
42:001:049 For he that is mighty hath done to me great things; and holy
is his name.
42:001:050 And his mercy is on them that fear him from generation to
generation.
42:001:051 He hath shewed strength with his arm; he hath scattered the
proud in the imagination of their hearts.
42:001:052 He hath put down the mighty from their seats, and exalted them
of low degree.
42:001:053 He hath filled the hungry with good things; and the rich he
hath sent empty away.
42:001:054 He hath holpen his servant Israel, in remembrance of his
mercy;
42:001:055 As he spake to our fathers, to Abraham, and to his seed for
ever.
42:001:056 And Mary abode with her about three months, and returned to
her own house.
42:001:057 Now Elisabeth's full time came that she should be delivered;
and she brought forth a son.
42:001:058 And her neighbours and her cousins heard how the Lord had
shewed great mercy upon her; and they rejoiced with her.
42:001:059 And it came to pass, that on the eighth day they came to
circumcise the child; and they called him Zacharias, after the
name of his father.
42:001:060 And his mother answered and said, Not so; but he shall be
called John.
42:001:061 And they said unto her, There is none of thy kindred that is
called by this name.
42:001:062 And they made signs to his father, how he would have him
called.
42:001:063 And he asked for a writing table, and wrote, saying, His name
is John. And they marvelled all.
42:001:064 And his mouth was opened immediately, and his tongue loosed,
and he spake, and praised God.
42:001:065 And fear came on all that dwelt round about them: and all
these sayings were noised abroad throughout all the hill
country of Judaea.
