-'''Luke 1:46-55 (King James version)'''
-{{Text|English|
-My soul doth magnify the Lord,
-And my spirit hath rejoiced in God my Saviour.
-For he hath regarded the low estate of his handmaiden: for, behold, from henceforth all generations shall call me blessed.
-For he that is mighty hath done to me great things; and holy is his name.
-And his mercy is on them that fear him from generation to generation.
-He hath shewed strength with his arm; he hath scattered the proud in the imagination of their
-hearts.
-He hath put down the mighty from their seats, and exalted them of low degree.
-He hath filled the hungry with good things; and the rich he hath sent empty away.
-He hath holpen his servant Israel, in remembrance of his mercy;
-As he spake to our fathers, to Abraham, and to his seed for ever.}}
-{{Text|Latin|
-Gloria Patri, et Filio, et Spiritui Sancto.
-Sicut erat in principio, et nunc, et semper, et in saecula saeculorum.
-Amen.}}
