37 and since then she had been a widow; she was now eighty-four. She was always at the temple, worshiping night and day with fasts and petitions. 38 At that very hour she came up and began thanking God and speaking about the child to everyone who was looking forward to Jerusalem’s redemption. 39 Once they had carried out everything the law of the Lord called for, they went back to Galilee, to Nazareth, their own town. 40 The child kept growing and gaining strength, being filled with wisdom, and God’s grace rested on him. 41 Year after year his parents would travel to Jerusalem for the Passover festival. 42 When he turned twelve, they went up in keeping with the custom of the festival. 43 Once the days of the feast were finished and they were heading back, the boy Jesus remained in Jerusalem without his parents knowing.
