| Et exsultávit spíritus meus: in Deo, salutári meo. | and my spirit hath rejoiced in God my Saviour. |
| Quia respéxit humilitátem ancíllæ suæ: ecce enim ex hoc beátam me dicent omnes generatiónes. | For He hath regarded the lowliness of His handmaiden: for behold, from henceforth all generations shall call me blessed. |

| Depósuit poténtes de sede: et exaltávit húmiles. | He hath put down the mighty from their seat: and hath exalted the humble and meek. |
| Esuriéntes implévit bonis: et dívites dimísit inánes. | He hath filled the hungry with good things: and the rich He hath sent empty away. |
| Suscépit Israël púerum suum: recordátus misericórdiæ suæ. | He remembering His mercy hath holpen His servant Israel: |
| Sicut locútus est ad patres nostros: Abraham, et sémini eius in sæcula. | as He promised to our forefathers, Abraham and his seed for ever. |
