Italiano: Immacolata Concezione dell'Escorial
Bartolomé Esteban Murillo (1618–1682)
The Magnificat
Luke 1: 46-55 (Douay translation)
My soul doth magnify the Lord, And my spirit hath rejoiced in God my Savior.
Because he hath regarded the humility of his handmaid; for behold from henceforth all generations shall call me blessed.
Because he that is mighty hath done great things to me, and holy is his name.
And his mercy is from generation unto generations, to them that fear him.
He hath shewed might with his arm; he hath scattered the proud in the conceit of their hearts.
He hath put down the mighty from their seat, and hath exalted the humble.
He hath filled the hungry with good things; and the rich he hath sent empty away.
He hath received Israel his servant, being mindful of his mercy:
As he spoke to our fathers, to Abraham and to his seed for ever.
Pray for us, O Holy Mother of God. That we may be made worthy of the promises of Christ.
St. Anne pray for us!
Pray the Rosary!
