25 Now there was at Jerusalem a man named Simeon, a just and religious man, who expected the consolation of Israel; and the Holy Spirit was upon him,

26 and had revealed to him, that he should not dies, until he had seen the Lord's Messiah.

27 This man came, guided by the Spirit, into the temple. And when the parents brought in the child Jesus, to do for him what the law required,

28 he took him into his arms, and blessed God, and said,

29 Now, Lord, thou dost in peace dismiss thy servant, according to thy word;

30 for my eyes have seen the Saviour,

31 whom thou hast provided in the sight of all the world,

32 a luminary to enlighten the nations, and to be the glory of Israel thy people.
