[26] And in the sixth month the angel Gabriel was sent God unto a city of Galilee, named Nazareth, [27] To a virgin espoused to a man whose name was Joseph, of the house of David; and the virgin's name was Mary. [28] And came in unto her, and said, Hail, thou that art highly favoured, the Lord is with blessed art thou among women. [29] And him, she was troubled at saying, and cast in her mind what manner of salutation this [30] And the angel said unto her, Fear not, Mary: for thou hast found favour with God. [31] And, behold, thou shalt conceive in thy womb, and bring forth a son, and shalt call his name JESUS. [32] He great, and shall be called the Son of the Highest: and the Lord God shall give unto him the throne of his father David: [33] And he shall reign over the house of Jacob for ever; and of his kingdom no end. [34] Then said Mary unto the angel, How seeing I know not a man? [35] And the angel answered and said unto her, The Holy Ghost shall come upon and the power of the Highest shall overshadow therefore also that holy thing which shall be born shall be called the Son of God. [36] And, behold, cousin Elisabeth, she also conceived a son in her old age: and this the sixth month with her, who was called barren. [37] For with God nothing shall be impossible. [38] And Mary said, Behold the handmaid of the Lord; be it according word. And the angel departed from her. [39] And Mary arose in days, and went into the hill country with haste, into a city of Juda; [40] And entered into the house of Zacharias, and saluted Elisabeth. [41] 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] And she spake out with a loud and said, Blessed art thou among women, and blessed is the fruit womb. [43] And whence that the mother Lord should come to [44] For, lo, as soon as the voice salutation sounded in ears, the babe leaped in womb for joy. [45] And blessed is she that believed: for a performance of those things which were told her from the Lord. [46] And Mary said, soul doth magnify the Lord, [47] And spirit hath rejoiced in God Saviour. [48] For he hath regarded the low estate of his handmaiden: for, behold, from henceforth all generations blessed. [49] For he that is mighty hath done and holy is his name. [50] And his mercy is on them that fear him from generation [51] He hath shewed strength with his arm; he hath scattered the proud in the imagination of their hearts. [52] He hath put down the mighty from their seats, and exalted them of low degree. [53] He hath filled the hungry with good things; and the rich empty away.
