27 The Spirit led Simeon to the Temple. Mary and Joseph brought the baby Jesus to the Temple to do what the law said they must do.
28 Then Simeon took the baby in his arms and thanked God:
29 “Now, Lord, you can let me, your servant,die in peace as you said.
30 I have seen your Salvation with my own eyes.
31 You prepared him before all people.
32 He is a light for the non-Jewish people to see.He will bring honor to your people, the Israelites.”
33 Jesus’ father and mother were amazed at what Simeon had said about him.
