Luke 2:33-40

33

The Child’s fatherG3962 andG2532 motherG3384 wereG1510 amazedG2296 atG1909 whatG3588 was spokenG2980 aboutG4012 HimG846. 34ThenG2532 SimeonG4826 blessedG2127 themG846 andG2532 saidG2036 toG4314 HisG846 motherG3384 MaryG3137:

36There wasG1510 alsoG2532 a prophetessG4398 named AnnaG451, the daughterG2364 of PhanuelG5323, ofG1537 the tribeG5443 of AsherG768, who was well alongG4260G4183 inG1722 yearsG2250. She had been marriedG2198G3326G435G575G846G3588G3932 for sevenG2033 yearsG2094, 37and thenG2532 was a widowG5503 to the age of eighty-fourG3589G5064G2094.1 She never leftG3756G868 theG3588 templeG2411, but worshipedG3000 nightG3571 andG2532 dayG2250, fastingG3521 andG2532 prayingG1162.

38

Coming forwardG2186 at thatG3588 momentG5610, sheG846 gave thanksG437 to GodG2316 andG2532 spokeG2980 aboutG4012 the Child to allG3956 whoG3588 were waiting forG4327 the redemptionG3085 of JerusalemG2419.

39

WhenG5613 Jesus’ parents had doneG5055 everythingG3956 required byG2596 theG3588 LawG3551 of the LordG2962, they returnedG1994 toG1519 GalileeG1056, toG1519 theirG1438 own townG4172 of NazarethG3478.

40AndG1161 theG3588 ChildG3813 grewG837 andG2532 became strongG2901.2 He was filledG4137 with wisdomG4678, andG2532 the graceG5485 of GodG2316 wasG1510 uponG1909 HimG846.
