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.
