Revelation 11:19- 12:6
A reading from the book of Revelation.
God’s temple in heaven was opened,
and the ark of his covenant was seen within his temple;
and there were flashes of lightning, rumblings,
peals of thunder, an earthquake, and heavy hail.
A great portent appeared in heaven:
a woman clothed with the sun, with the moon under her feet,
and on her head a crown of twelve stars.
She was pregnant and was crying out in birth pangs,
in the agony of giving birth.
Then another portent appeared in heaven:
a great red dragon, with seven heads
and ten horns, and seven diadems on his heads.
His tail swept down a third of the stars of heaven
and threw them to the earth.
Then the dragon stood before the woman who was about to bear a child,
so that he might devour her child as soon as it was born.
And she gave birth to a son, a male child,
who is to rule all the nations with a rod of iron.
But her child was snatched away and taken to God and to his throne;
and the woman fled into the wilderness,
where she has a place prepared by God,
so that there she can be nourished for
one thousand two hundred and sixty days.
Galatians 4:4-7
A reading from the letter of Paul to the Galatians.
When the fullness of time had come,
God sent his Son,
born of a woman, born under the law,
in order to redeem those who were under the law,
so that we might receive adoption as children.
And because you are children,
God has sent the Spirit of his Son into our hearts,
crying, ‘Abba! Father!’
So you are no longer a slave but a child,
and if a child then also an heir, through God.
Luke 1:46-55
Hear the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ according to Luke.
Mary said,
‘My soul magnifies the Lord,
and my spirit rejoices in God my Saviour,
for he has looked with favour on the lowliness of his servant.
Surely, from now on all generations will call me blessed;
for the Mighty One has done great things for me,
and holy is his name.
His mercy is for those who fear him
from generation to generation.
He has shown strength with his arm;
he has scattered the proud in the thoughts of their hearts.
He has brought down the powerful from their thrones,
and lifted up the lowly;
he has filled the hungry with good things,
and sent the rich away empty.
He has helped his servant Israel,
in remembrance of his mercy,
according to the promise he made to our ancestors,
to Abraham and to his descendants for ever.’
