St Luke 2:35-37 Douay-Rheims Challoner Revision 1752 (DRC1752)

35. And thy own soul a sword shall pierce, that, out of many hearts, thoughts may be revealed.

36. And there was one Anna, a prophetess, the daughter of Phanuel, of the tribe of Aser; she was far advanced in years, and had lived with her husband seven years from her virginity.

37. And she was a widow until fourscore and four years; who departed not from the temple, by fastings and prayers serving night and day.
