25Now 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.
26The Holy Spirit had revealed to him that he would not see death before he had seen the Lord’s Christ.
27Led by the Spirit, he went into the temple courts. And when the parents brought in the child Jesus to do for Him what was customary under the Law,

29“Sovereign Lord, as You have promised,
You now dismiss Your servant in peace.
