Dear el102-ga,
 
The aria is variously translated as follows:

?Quia respexit humilitatem ancillae suae; ecce enim ex hoc beatam me dicent. 
For He hath regarded the low estate of His handmaiden: for, behold,
from henceforth [all generations] shall call me blessed.?
http://inkpot.com/classical/bachmagnificat.html

"Quia respexit humilitatem ancillae suae: ecce enim ex hoc beatam me
dicent omnes generationes.
For He hath regarded the lowliness of His handmaiden; henceforth all
generations shall call me blessed."
http://www.rrcs.org.uk/MembersSite/Magnificat.htm

I was unsure whether you meant just the words ?Quia Respexit?.
Apart from ?regarded? it is also translated as ?For he has respected?
http://www.shrinesf.org/vespers.htm
'For he has regarded'

I hope this answers your question. If it does not, or the answer is
unclear, then please ask for clarification of this research before
rating the answer. I shall respond to the clarification request as

See the Gospel of St Luke,Ch.1, verses 46-55, in whichever Bible
translation you prefer, for the whole Magnificat.
