43 She answered, “Sir, I was married for thirty years, but I was never able to have a child.
44 During those thirty years I prayed every day and every hour, day and night, to God Most High for a child.
45 After thirty years God answered my prayer; he saw my suffering, took away my distress, and gave me a son. What great joy this brought to my husband and me and to all our neighbors! We sang the praises of the Almighty.
46 I brought our son up with the greatest care,
47 and when he was grown, I chose a wife for him and prepared for the wedding.
