Context
Mary and Elizabeth
1:39 In those days Mary got up and went hurriedly into the hill country , to a town of Judah ,
1:40 and entered Zechariah’s house and greeted Elizabeth .
1:41 When Elizabeth heard Mary’s greeting , the baby leaped in her womb , and Elizabeth was filled with the Holy Spirit .
1:42 She exclaimed with a loud voice , “Blessed are you among women , and blessed is the child in your womb !
1:43 And who am I that the mother of my Lord should come and visit me ?
1:44 For the instant the sound of your greeting reached my ears , the baby in my womb leaped for joy .
1:45 And blessed is she who believed that what was spoken to her by the Lord would be fulfilled .”
