☆ Gospel:Luke 1:46-56

46
And Mary said: My soul gives glory to God;

47
My spirit is glad in God my Saviour.

48
For he has had pity on his servant, though she is poor and lowly placed: and from this hour will all generations give witness to the blessing which has come to me.

49
For he who is strong has done great things for me; and holy is his name.

50
His mercy is for all generations in whom is the fear of him.

51
With his arm he has done acts of power; he has put to flight those who have pride in their hearts.

52
He has put down kings from their seats, lifting up on high the men of low degree.

53
Those who had no food he made full of good things; the men of wealth he sent away with nothing in their hands;

54
His help he has given to Israel, his servant, so that he might keep in mind his mercy to Abraham and his seed for ever,

55
As he gave his word to our fathers.

56
And Mary was with her for about three months and then went back to her house.

☆ 1 Samuel 1:24-28

24
Then when she had done so, she took him with her, with a three-year old ox and an ephah of meal and a skin full of wine, and took him to the house of the Lord at Shiloh: now the child was still very young.

25
And when they had made an offering of the ox, they took the child to Eli.

26
And she said, O my lord, as your soul is living, my lord, I am that woman who was making a prayer to the Lord here by your side:

27
My prayer was for this child; and the Lord has given him to me in answer to my request:

28
So I have given him to the Lord; for all his life he is the Lord's. Then he gave the Lord worship there.
