This one was advanced in her many days, having lived with a husband seven years from her virginity, 37 and herself being a widow up-to[a] eighty four years, who was not departing from the temple, serving[b] night and day with fastings and prayers. 38 And having come-upon them at the very hour, she was returning-thanks to God, and was speaking about Him to all the ones waiting for the redemption of Jerusalem.
