28b Ave [Maria], gratia plena, Dominus tecum;
29b Quae est ista salutatio,
30b Ne timeas Maria, invenisti [enim] gratiam apud Deum,
31a Ecce concipies [in utero] et paries Filium Dei.
34b Quomodo fiet istud? Quoniam virum non conosco,
35b Spiritus sanctus superveniet in te, et virtus Altissimi obumbrabit tibi.
38b Ecce ancilla Domini: fiat mihi secundum verbum tuum.
32b Dabit illi Dominus Deus sedem David patris eius et regnabit in Domo Iacob in aeternum.
33 et regni eius non erit finis.
Alleluia.
