Then Mary said,

“I praise the Lord with all my heart. I am very happy because God is my Savior.

 I am not important, but he has shown his care for me, his lowly servant.

From now until the end of time, people will remember how much God blessed me.

Yes, the Powerful One has done great things for me.

His name is very holy. He always gives mercy to those who worship him.

He scattered those who are proud and think great things about themselves.

He brought down rulers from their thrones and raised up the humble people.

He did not forget his promise to give us his mercy."
