^y“My ^zsoul ^amagnifies the Lord,

47  ^band my ^zspirit rejoices in ^cGod my Savior,

48  for ^dhe has looked on the humble estate of his servant.

For behold, from now on all generations ^ewill call me blessed;

49  for ^fhe who is mighty ^ghas done great things for me,

and ^hholy is his name.

50  And ⁱhis mercy is for those who fear him

from generation to generation.

51  ^jHe has shown strength with his arm;

^khe has scattered the proud in the thoughts of their hearts;

52  ^jhe has brought down the mighty from their thrones

^land exalted those of humble estate;

53  he has filled ^mthe hungry with good things,

and the rich ⁿhe has sent away empty.

^f“My heart exults in the Lord;

^gmy horn is exalted in the Lord.

My mouth derides my enemies,

because ^hI rejoice in your salvation.

2  ⁱ“There is none holy like the Lord:

for there is none besides you;

there is ^jno rock like our God.

3  Talk no more so very proudly,

let not arrogance come from your mouth;

for the Lord is a God of knowledge,

and by him actions are weighed.

4  ^kThe bows of the mighty are broken,

but the feeble bind on strength.

5  Those who were full have hired themselves out for bread,

but those who were hungry have ceased to hunger.

^lThe barren has borne seven,

^mbut she who has many children is forlorn.

6  ⁿThe Lord kills and brings to life;

he brings down to Sheol and raises up.

7  ^oThe Lord makes poor and makes rich;

^phe brings low and he exalts.

8  ^qHe raises up the poor from the dust;

he lifts the needy from the ash heap

^rto make them sit with princes

and inherit a seat of honor.

^sFor the pillars of the earth are the Lord’s,

and on them he has set the world.

9  ^t“He will guard the feet of his faithful ones,

but the wicked shall be cut off in darkness,

for not by might shall a man prevail.

10  ^uThe adversaries of the Lord shall be broken to pieces;

^vagainst them he will thunder in heaven.

^wThe Lord will judge the ends of the earth;

he will give strength to his king

^xand exalt the horn of his anointed.”
