THE GOSPEL ACCORDING TO LUKE - Chapter 1 - Verse 46

Verse 46. {r} My soul doth magnify the Lord. To magnify means to make great, and then to extol, to praise, to celebrate. It does not mean here strictly to make great, but to increase in our estimation —that is, to praise or extol. See Ps 34:3; 2 Sa 7:26.
