Luke 2:33-35

Evangelical Heritage Version

³³ Joseph^[a] and the child’s^[b] mother were amazed at the things that were spoken about him. ³⁴ Then Simeon blessed them and said to Mary his mother, “Listen carefully, this child is appointed for the falling and rising of many in Israel and for a sign that is spoken against, ³⁵ so that the thoughts of many hearts may be revealed. And a sword will pierce your own soul too.”
