Luke 2:25-35 in the Abbott ePublishing Tyndale21 Version of the Gospels

And, Look, there was a man in Jerusalem, whose name was Simeon. And the same man was just and feared God and longed for the consolation of Israel. And the Holy Spirit was in him. And an answer was given to him by the Holy Spirit, that he would not see death before he had seen the Lord's Christ. And he came by inspiration into the temple, and when the father and mother brought in the child Jesus, to do for him after the custom of the law, 


Then took he him up in his arms, blessed God, and said, Lord, now let your servant depart in peace, according to your promise, For my eyes have seen the salvation sent from you, Which you have prepared before the face of all people; A light to enlighten the Gentiles, and the glory of your people, Israel. And Joseph and his mother were amazed at these things which were spoken of him. 


And Simeon blessed them, and said to Mary his mother, Look, this child will be the fall and resurrection of many in Israel, and a sign who will be spoken against. And further, a sword will pass through your own soul also, so that the thoughts of many hearts may be revealed.
