22AndG2532 whenG3753 theG3588 daysG2250 ofG2250 theirG846 purificationG2512 accordingG2596 toG1519 theG3588 lawG3551 ofG2250 MosesG3475 were fulfilled, theyG846 broughtG321 himG846 upG1519 toG1519 JerusalemG2414, toG1519 presentG3936 himG846 toG1519 theG3588 LordG2962
23(asG2531 itG3551 is writtenG1125 inG1722 theG3956 lawG3551 ofG3551 theG3956 LordG2962, EveryG3956 maleG730 thatG3754 openeth theG3956 wombG3388 shallG2564 beG3956 calledG2564 holyG40 toG1722 theG3956 LordG2962),
24andG2532 toG3004 offerG1325 a sacrificeG2378 accordingG2596 toG3004 thatG3004 whichG3588 is saidG3004 inG1722 theG3588 lawG3551 ofG3551 theG3588 LordG2962, A pairG2201 ofG3551 turtledovesG5167, orG2228 twoG1417 youngG3502 pigeonsG4058.
25AndG2532 beholdG2400, thereG1510 wasG1510 aG1510 manG444 inG1722 JerusalemG2419, whoseG3739 nameG3686 wasG1510 SimeonG4826; andG2532 thisG3778 manG444 wasG1510 righteousG1342 andG2532 devoutG2126, lookingG4327 forG1909 theG3588 consolationG3874 ofG4151 IsraelG2474: andG2532 theG3588 HolyG40 SpiritG4151 wasG1510 uponG1909 himG846.
26AndG2532 itG846 hadG1510 beenG1510 revealedG5537 unto himG846 byG5259 theG3588 HolyG40 SpiritG4151, thatG3708 heG2532 shouldG2532 notG3361 seeG3708 deathG2288, beforeG4250 heG2532 hadG1510 seenG3708 theG3588 Lord’sG2962 ChristG5547.
27AndG2532 heG2532 cameG2064 inG1722 theG3588 SpiritG4151 intoG1519 theG3588 templeG846: andG2532 whenG2532 theG3588 parentsG1118 broughtG1521 inG1722 theG3588 childG3813 JesusG2424, thatG846 theyG846 mightG2532 doG4160 concerningG4012 himG846 afterG2596 theG3588 customG1480 ofG4151 theG3588 lawG3551,
28thenG2532 heG2532 receivedG1209 himG846 intoG1519 hisG846 armsG43, andG2532 blessedG2127 GodG2316, andG2532 saidG3004,
29NowG3568 lettest thou thy servantG1401 departG630, O LordG1203, AccordingG2596 toG2596 thy wordG4487, inG1722 peaceG1515;
30ForG3754 mineG1473 eyesG3788 have seenG3708 thy salvationG4992,
31WhichG3739 thou hast preparedG2090 beforeG3588 theG3956 faceG4383 ofG3956 allG3956 peoplesG2992;
32A lightG5457 forG1519 revelationG602 toG1519 theG2532 GentilesG1484, AndG2532 theG2532 gloryG1391 ofG1391 thy peopleG2992 IsraelG2474.
33AndG2532 hisG846 fatherG3962 andG2532 hisG846 motherG3384 wereG1510 marvelingG2296 at theG3588 thingsG846 whichG3588 wereG1510 spokenG2980 concerningG4012 himG846;
34andG2532 SimeonG4826 blessedG2127 themG846, andG2532 saidG3004 unto MaryG3137 hisG846 motherG3384, BeholdG2400, thisG3778 child is setG2749 forG1519 theG3588 falling andG2532 risingG386 upG1519 ofG1722 manyG4183 inG1722 IsraelG2474; andG2532 forG1519 a signG4592 whichG3588 is spokenG3004 againstG4314;
35yea andG2532 a swordG4501 shallG2532 pierceG1330 throughG1330 thine ownG846 soulG5590; thatG3704 thoughtsG1261 outG1537 ofG1537 manyG4183 heartsG2588 mayG2532 beG2532 revealedG601.
36AndG2532 thereG1510 wasG1510 oneG3778 AnnaG451, aG1510 prophetessG4398, theG3588 daughterG2364 ofG1537 PhanuelG5323, ofG1537 theG3588 tribeG5443 ofG1537 AsherG768 (sheG846 wasG1510 ofG1537 aG1510 greatG4183 ageG2094, having livedG1510 withG3326 aG1510 husbandG435 sevenG2033 yearsG2094 fromG575 herG846 virginity,
37andG2532 sheG846 had beenG2532 a widowG5503 evenG2532 forG2532 fourscore andG2532 fourG5064 yearsG2094), whichG3739 departedG868 notG3756 fromG2532 theG3588 templeG846, worshipping withG2532 fastingsG3521 andG2532 supplications nightG3571 andG2532 dayG2250.
38AndG2532 coming upG2186 at thatG3956 veryG846 hourG5610 sheG846 gave thanksG437 unto GodG2316, andG2532 spake ofG2316 himG846 toG2532 allG3956 themG846 thatG3956 were lookingG4327 forG4012 theG3956 redemptionG3085 ofG2316 JerusalemG2419.
39AndG2532 whenG5613 theyG2532 had accomplishedG5055 allG3956 thingsG3956 thatG3956 were accordingG2596 toG1519 theG3956 lawG3551 ofG3551 theG3956 LordG2962, theyG2532 returnedG1994 intoG1519 GalileeG1056, toG1519 theirG1438 ownG1438 cityG4172 NazarethG3478.
40AndG2532 theG3588 childG3813 grewG837, andG2532 waxed strongG2901, filledG4137 withG1909 wisdomG4678: andG2532 theG3588 graceG5485 ofG2316 GodG2316 wasG1510 uponG1909 himG846.
