In those days, Mary arose and went with haste into the hill country, to a city of Judah, and she entered
the house of Zechariah and greeted Elizabeth. And when Elizabeth heard the greeting of Mary, the babe leaped in her womb; and Elizabeth was filled with the Holy Spirit and she exclaimed with a loud cry,
"Blessed are you among women,
and blessed is the
fruit of your womb!
And why is this granted me,
that the mother of my Lord
should come to me?
For behold, when the voice of your greeting
came to my ears,
the babe in my womb
leaped for joy.
And blessed is he who believed
that there would be fulfillment
of what was spoken to her
from the Lord."
- Luke 1:39-45
