Luke 2:27-33

27And he came 1by the Spirit into the temple; and when the parents brought in the child Jesus, 23to 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, 4According to Your word;30For my eyes have 5seen Your salvation,31Which You have prepared in the presence of all the peoples:326A light for revelation 7for the Gentiles, And the glory of Your people Israel.”

33And His father and 8mother were amazed at the things which were being said about Him.
