To quote the entire verses of Scripture you call vain repetition:

Luke 1:28 And the angel being come in, said unto her: Hail, full of grace, the Lord is with thee: blessed art thou among women.

Luke 1:42 And she cried out with a loud voice and said: Blessed art thou among women and blessed is the fruit of thy womb.

I'll make a note, repeating a verse Scripture is vain repetition according to yet another of those who worship their own Most High and Holy Self and who proclaim their belief that they personally have replaced the Holy Ghost in the Trinity, share all knowledge and wisdom with God the Father and Jesus Christ, and are the infallible interpreter of all Scriptures.

The Pharisee canon only, of course, since such folks have refused to accept the Christian canon of the Bible as it was used by Jesus Christ Himself and the Apostles. Who, by the by, never said one word about the Septuagint having any writings included in it that should not be there. But I digress, and what's a few "nonessential" quibbles among members of the same Trinity.

The words spoken to Mary were no different then were spoken to Jael in Judges. In fact, Jael was called blessed above women. Mary was called blessed among women.

Judges 5:24 Blessed above women shall Jael the wife of Heber the Kenite be,

Those words were also spoken of Noah, Moses, and David.

>> Luke 1:42 And she cried out with a loud voice and said: Blessed art thou among women and blessed is the fruit of thy womb.<<

Luke 11:27-28 27 And it came to pass, as he spake these things, a certain woman of the company lifted up her voice, and said unto him, Blessed is the womb that bare thee, and the paps which thou hast sucked. 28 But he said, Nay rather, (Greek Menounge: nay surely, nay rather) blessed are they that hear the word of God, and keep it.

Yes, apparently it is vain repetition to meditate on the life of Jesus in the Gospels.

To say the prayer Jesus gave us.

And to offer glory to the Father, Son and Holy Spirit.
