Luke 1:37–45
37For nothing spoken by God is impossible.”↗
38Mary said, “Behold, the servant of the Lord; let it be done to me according to your word.” Then the angel departed from her.↗
39Mary arose in those days and went into the hill country with haste, into a city of Judah,↗
40and entered into the house of Zacharias and greeted Elizabeth.↗
41When Elizabeth heard Mary’s greeting, the baby leaped in her womb; and Elizabeth was filled with the Holy Spirit.↗
42She called out with a loud voice and said, “Blessed are you among women, and blessed is the fruit of your womb!↗
43Why am I so favored, that the mother of my Lord should come to me?↗
44For behold, when the voice of your greeting came into my ears, the baby leaped in my womb for joy!↗
45Blessed is she who believed, for there will be a fulfillment of the things which have been spoken to her from the Lord!”↗
