Luke 2:22-32

221And when the days for 2their purification according to the Law of Moses were completed, they brought Him up to Jerusalem to present Him to the Lord 23(as it is written in the Law of the Lord: “3Every firstborn male that opens the womb shall be called holy to the Lord”), 24and to offer a sacrifice according to what has been stated in the Law of the Lord: “4A pair of turtledoves or two young doves.”

25And there was a man in Jerusalem whose name was Simeon; and this man was 5righteous and devout, 6looking forward to the consolation of Israel; and the Holy Spirit was upon him. 26And 7it had been revealed to him by the Holy Spirit that he would not 8see death before he had seen the Lord’s 9Christ. 27And he came 10by the Spirit into the temple; and when the parents brought in the child Jesus, 1112to carry out for Him the custom of the Law, 28then he took Him in his arms, and blessed God, and said,29“Now, Lord, You are letting Your bond-servant depart in peace, 13According to Your word;30For my eyes have 14seen Your salvation,31Which You have prepared in the presence of all the peoples:3215A light for revelation 16for the Gentiles, And the glory of Your people Israel.”
