Lukas 1:44

1:44 For the instant ¹  the sound of your greeting reached my ears, ²  the baby in my womb leaped for joy. ³ 

Lukas 1:47

1:47 and my spirit has begun to rejoice ⁴  in God my Savior,

[1:44]  ¹ tn Grk “for behold.”

[1:44]  ² tn Grk “when the sound of your greeting [reached] my ears.”

[1:44]  ³ sn On the statement the baby in my womb leaped for joy see both 1:14 and 1:47. This notes a fulfillment of God’s promised word.

[1:47]  ⁴ tn Or “rejoices.” The translation renders this aorist, which stands in contrast to the previous line’s present tense, as ingressive, which highlights Mary’s joyous reaction to the announcement. A comprehensive aorist is also possible here.
