When the time of their purification according to the Law of
Moses had been completed, Joseph and Mary took him to Jerusalem to present him
to the Lord (as it is written in the Law of the Lord, “Every firstborn male is
to be consecrated to the Lord”), and to offer a sacrifice in keeping with what
is said in the Law of the Lord: “a pair of doves or two young pigeons.”
Now there was a man in Jerusalem called Simeon,
who was righteous and devout. He was waiting for the consolation of Israel, and
the Holy Spirit was upon him. It had been revealed to him by the Holy Spirit
that he would not die before he had seen the Lord’s Christ.
