Luke 2:36-38

New King James Version

Anna Bears Witness to the Redeemer

³⁶ Now there was one, Anna, a prophetess, the daughter of Phanuel, of the tribe of ^(A)Asher. She was of a great age, and had lived with a husband seven years from her virginity; ³⁷ and this woman was a widow ^[a]of about eighty-four years, who did not depart from the temple, but served God with fastings and prayers ^(B)night and day. ³⁸ And coming in that instant she gave thanks to ^[b]the Lord, and spoke of Him to all those who ^(C)looked for redemption in Jerusalem.
