Luke 2:22-35
New King James Version (NKJV)

Jesus Presented in the Temple
22 Now
when the days of her purification according to the law of Moses were completed, they brought Him
to Jerusalem to present Him to the Lord 23 (as it
is written in the law of the Lord, “Every male who opens the womb
shall be called holy to the Lord”), 24 and to offer a sacrifice
according to what is said in the law of the Lord, “A pair of
turtledoves or two young pigeons.”
Simeon Sees God’s Salvation
25 And
behold, there was a man in Jerusalem whose name was Simeon, and this
man was just and devout, waiting for the Consolation of Israel, and the Holy
Spirit was upon him. 26 And 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 by the Spirit into the temple. And when
the parents brought in the Child Jesus, to do for Him according to the custom of the
law, 28 he took Him up in his arms and blessed God and
said:

29 “Lord, now You are letting Your servant
depart in peace,
According to Your word;
30 For my eyes have seen Your
salvation
31 Which You have prepared before the face of
all peoples,
32 A light
to bring revelation to the Gentiles,
And the glory of Your people Israel.”

33 And Joseph and His mother marveled at
those things which were spoken of Him. 34 Then
Simeon blessed them, and said to Mary His mother, “Behold, this Child is
destined for the fall and rising of many in Israel, and for a sign which will be spoken
against 35 (yes, a sword will pierce through your own
soul also), that the thoughts of many hearts may be revealed.”
