33 And Joseph and his mother marveled at those things, which were spoken touching him.
34 And Simeon blessed them, and said unto Mary his mother, Behold, this child is [a]appointed for the (A)[b]fall and rising again of many in Israel, and for a [c]sign which shall be spoken against,
35 (Yea and a sword shall [d]pierce through thy soul) that the thoughts of many hearts may be opened.
