And he came by the Spirit into the temple: and when the parents brought in the child Jesus, to do for him according to the custom of the law,
Lord, now let your servant depart in peace, according to your word:
And the thing pleased the children of Israel; and the children of Israel blessed God, and did not intend to go up against them in battle, to destroy the land in which the children of Reuben and Gad dwelt.
