Luke 2:31-52 Which you have prepared before the face of all people;

AKJV_Strongs⁽ⁱ⁾

31 G3739 Which G2090 you have prepared G2596 before G4383 the face G3956 of all G2992 people;

32 G5457 A light G602 to lighten G1484 the Gentiles, G1391 and the glory G2992 of your people G2474 Israel.

33 G2501 And Joseph G3384 and his mother G2296 marveled G1909 at G3588 those G2980 things which were spoken of him.

34 G4826 And Simeon G2127 blessed G2036 them, and said G3137 to Mary G3384 his mother, G2400 Behold, G3778 this G2749 child is set G4431 for the fall G386 and rising G386 again G4183 of many G2474 in Israel; G4592 and for a sign G483 which shall be spoken G483 against;

35 G1161 (Yes, G4501 a sword G1330 shall pierce G1330 through G5590 your own soul G2532 also, G1261 ) that the thoughts G4183 of many G2588 hearts G601 may be revealed.

36 G451 And there was one Anna, G4398 a prophetess, G2364 the daughter G5323 of Phanuel, G5443 of the tribe G768 of Aser: G4183 she was of a great G2250 age, G2198 and had lived G435 with an husband G2033 seven G2094 years G3932 from her virginity;

37 G5503 And she was a widow G5613 of about G3589 fourscore G5064 and four G2094 years, G3739 which G868 departed G2411 not from the temple, G3000 but served G3521 God with fastings G1162 and prayers G3571 night G2250 and day.

38 G2186 And she coming G5610 in that instant G437 gave G437 thanks G437 likewise G2962 to the Lord, G2980 and spoke G3956 of him to all G4327 them that looked G3085 for redemption G2419 in Jerusalem.

39 G5613 And when G5055 they had performed G537 all G2596 things according G3551 to the law G2962 of the Lord, G5290 they returned G1519 into G1056 Galilee, G4172 to their own city G3478 Nazareth.

40 G3813 And the child G837 grew, G2901 and waxed G2901 strong G4151 in spirit, G4137 filled G4678 with wisdom: G5485 and the grace G2316 of God was on him.

41 G2532 Now G1118 his parents G4198 went G2419 to Jerusalem G2596 every G2094 year G1859 at the feast G3957 of the passover.

42 G3753 And when G1427 he was twelve G2094 years G305 old, they went G2414 up to Jerusalem G2596 after G1485 the custom G1859 of the feast.

43 G5048 And when they had fulfilled G2250 the days, G5290 as they returned, G3816 the child G2424 Jesus G5278 tarried G5278 behind G2419 in Jerusalem; G2501 and Joseph G3384 and his mother G1097 knew not of it.

44 G3543 But they, supposing G1511 him to have been G4923 in the company, G2064 went G2250 a day’s G3598 journey; G327 and they sought G1722 him among G4773 their kinsfolk G1110 and acquaintance.

45 G2147 And when they found G5290 him not, they turned G5290 back G5290 again G2419 to Jerusalem, G2212 seeking him.

46 G1096 And it came G3326 to pass, that after G5140 three G2250 days G2147 they found G2411 him in the temple, G2516 sitting G3319 in the middle G1320 of the doctors, G2532 both G191 hearing G1905 them, and asking G1905 them questions.

47 G3956 And all G191 that heard G1839 him were astonished G1909 at G4907 his understanding G612 and answers.

48 G1492 And when they saw G1605 him, they were amazed: G3384 and his mother G2036 said G5043 to him, Son, G5101 why G3779 have you thus G4160 dealt G2400 with us? behold, G3962 your father G2212 and I have sought G3600 you sorrowing.

49 G2036 And he said G5101 to them, How G2212 is it that you sought G1492 me? knew G1163 you not that I must G1722 be about G3962 my Father’s business?

50 G4920 And they understood G4487 not the saying G3739 which G2980 he spoke to them.

51 G2597 And he went G2597 down G2064 with them, and came G3478 to Nazareth, G5293 and was subject G3384 to them: but his mother G1301 kept G3956 all G5023 these G4487 sayings G2588 in her heart.

52 G2424 And Jesus G4298 increased G4678 in wisdom G2244 and stature, G5485 and in favor G2316 with God G444 and man.
