Best Answer

Most of the prayer comes from the greeting Gabriel gave to Mary at the Annunciation out of Luke's Gospel. The petition portion (the second half) did not come about until nearly 1500 AD when it became popular to add a request at the end.

The origins of the Hail Mary are from God, and are contained in The Bible:

Hail, full of grace, the Lord is with you! - Luke 1:28
Blessed are you among women, and blessed is the fruit of your womb - Luke 1:42
the final phrase, Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us sinners now and at the hour of our death is from the liturgy, primarily the monastic Divine Office.
