Mary Visits Elizabeth (LUK 1:39-45)

[1:39] In those days Mary arose and went with haste into the hill country, to a town in Judah,

[1:40] and she entered the house of Zechariah and greeted Elizabeth.

[1:41] And when Elizabeth heard the greeting of Mary, the baby leaped in her womb. And Elizabeth was filled with the Holy Spirit,

[1:42] and she exclaimed with a loud cry, “Blessed are you among women, and blessed is the fruit of your womb!

[1:43] And why is this granted to me that the mother of my Lord should come to me?

[1:44] For behold, when the sound of your greeting came to my ears, the baby in my womb leaped for joy.

[1:45] And blessed is she who believed that there would be a fulfillment of what was spoken to her from the Lord.”
