Mary didn’t waste a minute. She got up and traveled to a town in Judah in the hill country, straight to Zachariah’s house, and greeted Elizabeth. When Elizabeth heard Mary’s greeting, the baby in her womb leaped. She was filled with the Holy Spirit, and sang out exuberantly,

   You’re so blessed among women,
      and the babe in your womb, also blessed!
   And why am I so blessed that
      the mother of my Lord visits me?
   The moment the sound of your
      greeting entered my ears,

      skipped like a lamb for sheer joy.
   Blessed woman, who believed what God said,
      believed every word would come true!
