25 And behold, there was a man in Jerusalem named Simeon who was righteous and devout. He was waiting for the consolation of Israel, and the Holy Spirit was upon him. 26 It had been revealed to him by the Holy Spirit that he would not see death before he had seen the Lord’s Christ. 27 So he came in the Spirit into the temple courts, and when the parents brought in the child Jesus to do for him what was customary under the law, 28 Simeon took him in his arms and blessed God, saying,
29 "Now, Master, yoʋ are releasing yoʋr servant in peace
according to yoʋr word,
30 for my eyes have seen yoʋr salvation,
31 which yoʋ have prepared in the presence of all peoples,
32 a light for revelation to the Gentiles
and for the glory of yoʋr people Israel."
