42:002:032 A light to lighten the Gentiles, and the glory of thy people
Israel.
42:002:033 And Joseph and his mother marvelled at those things which were
spoken of him.
42:002:034 And Simeon blessed them, and said unto Mary his mother,
Behold, this child is set for the fall and rising again of
many in Israel; and for a sign which shall be spoken against;
42:002:035 (Yea, a sword shall pierce through thy own soul also,) that
the thoughts of many hearts may be revealed.
42:002:036 And there was one Anna, a prophetess, the daughter of Phanuel,
of the tribe of Aser: she was of a great age, and had lived
with an husband seven years from her virginity;
42:002:037 And she was a widow of about fourscore and four years, which
departed not from the temple, but served God with fastings and
prayers night and day.
42:002:038 And she coming in that instant gave thanks likewise unto the
Lord, and spake of him to all them that looked for redemption
in Jerusalem.
42:002:039 And when they had performed all things according to the law of
the Lord, they returned into Galilee, to their own city
Nazareth.
42:002:040 And the child grew, and waxed strong in spirit, filled with
wisdom: and the grace of God was upon him.
42:002:041 Now his parents went to Jerusalem every year at the feast of
the passover.
42:002:042 And when he was twelve years old, they went up to Jerusalem
after the custom of the feast.
42:002:043 And when they had fulfilled the days, as they returned, the
child Jesus tarried behind in Jerusalem; and Joseph and his
mother knew not of it.
42:002:044 But they, supposing him to have been in the company, went a
day's journey; and they sought him among their kinsfolk and
acquaintance.
42:002:045 And when they found him not, they turned back again to
Jerusalem, seeking him.
42:002:046 And it came to pass, that after three days they found him in
the temple, sitting in the midst of the doctors, both hearing
them, and asking them questions.
42:002:047 And all that heard him were astonished at his understanding
and answers.
42:002:048 And when they saw him, they were amazed: and his mother said
unto him, Son, why hast thou thus dealt with us? behold, thy
father and I have sought thee sorrowing.
42:002:049 And he said unto them, How is it that ye sought me? wist ye
not that I must be about my Father's business?
42:002:050 And they understood not the saying which he spake unto them.
42:002:051 And he went down with them, and came to Nazareth, and was
subject unto them: but his mother kept all these sayings in
her heart.
42:002:052 And Jesus increased in wisdom and stature, and in favour with
God and man.
