Luke 2:33-40

33And his fatherG3962 and motherG3384 wonderedG2296 at the things which wereG1510 saidG2980 concerningG4012 him.

34And SimeonG4826 blessedG2127 them, and saidG3004 to MaryG3137 his motherG3384, Lo, this [child] is setG2749 for the fall and rising up of manyG4183 in IsraelG2474, and for a signG4592 spoken against;

35(and evenG2532 a swordG4501 shall goG1330 through thine own soulG5590;) so that [the] thoughtsG1261 may be revealedG601 from manyG4183 heartsG2588.

36And there wasG1510 a prophetessG4398, Anna, daughterG2364 of Phanuel, of [the] tribeG5443 of AsherG768, who wasG1510 far advanced in yearsG2094, having lived with [her] husbandG435 sevenG2033 yearsG2094 from her virginity,

37and herself a widowG5503 up to eighty-four yearsG2094; who did not departG868 from the temple, servingG3000 nightG3571 and dayG2250 with fastings and prayersG1162;

38and she coming up the sameG846 hourG5610 gave praise to the Lord, and spokeG2980 of him to all those who waited for redemptionG3085 in JerusalemG2419.

39And whenG5613 they had completed all thingsG3956 accordingG2596 to the lawG3551 of [the] LordG2962, they returnedG1994 to GalileeG1056 to their ownG1438 cityG4172 NazarethG3478.

40And the childG3813 grewG837 and waxed strong [in spirit], filledG4137 with wisdomG4678, and 1God's graceG5485 wasG1510 upon him.
