Et ingressus her, HAIL, full of grace, our Lord is with Angelus ad eum dixit: Ave, gratia plena: Dominus 29 tecum: Benedicta tu in mulieribus. Quæ cum audisset, turbata est in sermone ejus, et cogitabat qualis esset ista 30 salutatio. Et ait Angelus ei; Ne timeas, Maria, inve31 nisti enim gratiam apud Deum: Ecce concipies in utero, 32 et paries filium, et vocabis nomen ejus JESUM. Hic erit magnus, et Filius Altissimi vocabitur, et dabit illi Dominus Deus sedem David patris ejus: et regnabit 33 in domo Jacob in æternum, et regni ejus non erit 34 finis. Dixit autem Maria ad Angelum. Quomodo fiet 35 istud, quoniam virum non cognosco? et respondens Angelus dixit ei: Spiritus sanctus superveniet in te, et virtus Altissimi obumbrabit tibi. Ideoque et quod 36 nascetur ex te Sanctum, vocabitur Filius Dei. Et ecce Elisabeth cognata tua et ipsa concepit filium in senectute sua: et hic mensis sextus est illi, quæ vocatur steri37 lis: quia non erit impossibile apud Deum omne verbum. 38 Dixit autem Maria: Ecce ancilla Domini, fiat mihi secundum verbum tuum.

Et factum it came to pass, as Elizabeth heard the saluest, ut audivit salutationem Mariæ Elisabeth, exultavit infans in utero ejus: et repleta est Spiritu sancto 42 Elisabeth: et exclamavit voce magna, et dixit: Benedicta tu inter mulieres, et benedictus fructus ventris tui. 43 Et unde hoc mihi ut veniat mater Domini mei ad me? 44 ecce enim ut facta est vox salutationis tuæ in auribus 45 meis, exultavit in gaudio infans in utero meo. beata, quæ credidisti, quoniam perficientur ea, quæ 46 dicta sunt tibi a Domino.
