Lukas 2,28

26 Det var blitt åpenbart for ham av Den Hellige Ånd at han ikke skulle se døden før han hadde sett Herrens Messias.

27 Han kom til tempelet, drevet av Ånden. Da foreldrene brakte inn barnet Jesus for å gjøre med ham som skikken var etter loven,

tok Simeon ham i armene og lovpriste Gud og sa:

29 "Herre, nå lar du din tjener fare herfra i fred,
etter ditt ord;

30 for mine øyne har sett din frelse,

Here the Bible tells a story about someone else. Ask yourself what it can say to us today. Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
