*
And Joseph and his mother marvelled (
5713 ) (
5723 )
at those things which were spoken (
5746 )
of him .
*
And Simeon blessed (
5656 )
them ,
and said (
5627 )
unto Mary his mother ,
Behold (
5628 ),
this child is set (
5736 )
for the fall and rising again of many in Israel ;
and for a sign which shall be spoken against (
5746 );
* (
Yea ,
a sword shall pierce through (
5695 )
thy own soul also ,)
that the thoughts of many hearts may be revealed (
5686 ).
*
And there was (
5713 )
one Anna ,
a prophetess ,
the daughter of Phanuel ,
of the tribe of Aser :
she (
5625 )
was of a great age (
5761 ),
and had lived (
5660 )
with an husband seven years from her virginity ;
*
And she was a widow of about fourscore and four years ,
which departed (
5711 )
not from the temple ,
but served (
5723 )
God with fastings and prayers night and day .
*
And she (
5625 )
coming in (
5631 )
that instant gave thanks likewise (
5711 )
unto the Lord ,
and spake (
5707 )
of him to all them that looked (
5740 )
for redemption in Jerusalem .
*
And when they had performed (
5656 )
all things according to the law of the Lord ,
they returned (
5656 )
into Galilee ,
to their own city Nazareth .
*
And the child grew (
5707 ),
and waxed strong (
5712 )
in spirit ,
filled (
5746 )
with wisdom :
and the grace of God was (
5713 )
upon him .
*
Now his parents went (
5711 )
to Jerusalem every year at the feast of the passover .
*
And when he was (
5633 )
twelve years old ,
they went up (
5631 )
to Jerusalem after the custom of the feast .
*
And when they had fulfilled (
5660 )
the days ,
as they returned (
5721 ),
the child Jesus tarried behind (
5656 )
in Jerusalem ;
and Joseph and his mother knew (
5627 )
not of it .
*
But they ,
supposing (
5660 )
him to have been (
5750 )
in the company ,
went (
5627 )
a days journey ;
and they sought (
5707 )
him among their kinsfolk and acquaintance .
*
And when they found (
5631 )
him not ,
they turned back again (
5656 )
to Jerusalem ,
seeking (
5723 )
him .
*
And it came to pass (
5633 ),
that after three days they found (
5627 )
him in the temple ,
sitting (
5740 )
in the midst of the doctors ,
both hearing (
5723 )
them ,
and asking them questions (
5723 ).
*
And all that heard (
5723 )
him were astonished (
5710 )
at his understanding and answers .
