Luke 1:50

Luke 1:50

48 For ^aHe has regarded the lowly state of His maidservant;
For behold, henceforth ^ball generations will call me blessed.

49 For He who is mighty ^ahas done great things for me,
And ^bholy is His name.

50 And ^aHis mercy is on those who fear Him
From generation to generation.

51 ^aHe has shown strength with His arm;
^bHe has scattered the proud in the imagination of their hearts.

52 ^aHe has put down the mighty from their thrones,
And exalted the lowly.

53 He has ^afilled the hungry with good things,
And the rich He has sent away empty.

54 He has helped His ^aservant Israel,
^bIn remembrance of His mercy,

55 ^aAs He spoke to our ^bfathers,
To Abraham and to his ^cseed forever.”

56 And Mary remained with her about three months, and returned to her house.

Fear (foboumenoiv). Dative of the present middle participle. Here it is reverential fear as in Acts 10:2; Colossians 3:22. The bad sense of dread appears in Matthew 21:46; Mark 6:20; Luke 12:4.
