Luke 2:24

In context

22When the days of their purification were complete, according to the law of Moses, they brought him up to Jerusalem to present him to the Lord, 23as it is written in the law of the Lord: every male who is first to open the womb shall be called holy to the Lord. 24They also came to offer the sacrifice named in the law of the Lord: a pair of turtledoves or two young pigeons. 25Now there was a man in Jerusalem named Simeon. He was upright and devout, waiting for the consolation of Israel, and the Holy Spirit was upon him. 26It had been revealed to him by the Holy Spirit that he would not see death before he had seen the Christ of the Lord.
