34 Simeon blessed them, and said to Mary, his mother, “Behold, this child is appointed for the falling and the rising of many in Israel, and for a sign which is spoken against.

35 Y una espada traspasará tu alma de ti misma, para que sean manifestados los pensamientos de muchos corazones.

43 Y acabados los días, volviendo ellos, se quedó el niño Jesús en Jerusalem, sin saberlo José y su madre.
43 and when they had fulfilled the days, as they were returning, the boy Jesus stayed behind in Jerusalem. Joseph and his mother didn’t know it,
44 They assumed that he was with the group that was traveling with them, so they traveled a day's journey. Then they started looking for him among their relatives and friends.
44 Y pensando que estaba en la compañía, anduvieron camino de un día; y le buscaban entre los parientes y entre los conocidos:
44 but supposing him to be in the company, they went a day’s journey; and they looked for him among their relatives and acquaintances.

48 When they saw him, they were astonished. His mother said to him, “Son, why have you treated us this way? Listen, your father and I have been anxiously searching for you.”
48 Y cuando le vieron, se maravillaron; y díjole su madre: Hijo, ¿por qué nos has hecho así? He aquí, tu padre y yo te hemos buscado con dolor.
48 When they saw him, they were astonished; and his mother said to him, “Son, why have you treated us this way? Behold, your father and I were anxiously looking for you.”
49 He said to them, “Why were you searching for me? Did you not know that I had to be about my Father's business?
49 Entonces él les dice: ¿Qué hay? ¿por qué me buscabais? ¿No sabíais que en los negocios de mi Padre me conviene estar?
49 He said to them, “Why were you looking for me? Didn’t you know that I must be in my Father’s house?”
50 But they did not understand what he meant by those words.
50 Mas ellos no entendieron las palabras que les habló.
50 They didn’t understand the saying which he spoke to them.
51 Then he went back home with them to Nazareth and was obedient to them. His mother treasured all these things in her heart.

51 And he went down with them and came to Nazareth. He was subject to them, and his mother kept all these sayings in her heart.

¿Por qué mi Biblia dice algo distinto?
- Lucas 2:14: ¿«buena voluntad para con los hombres» o «paz a los hombres de buena voluntad»?
El canto de los ángeles difiere en una sola letra griega. La mayoría de los manuscritos, el Texto Patriarcal y la Doxología ortodoxa dicen eudokia: «Gloria en las alturas a Dios, y en la tierra paz, buena voluntad para con los hombres». Varios de los manuscritos más antiguos dicen eudokias: «paz a los hombres de su complacencia», que el latín tradujo «hombres de buena voluntad». Ambas lecturas ponen el origen de la paz en el favor de Dios.
Lo que dijeron los Padres
Pasajes de los Padres de la Iglesia que comentan o citan este capítulo, tal como aparecen en la edición de Schaff (traducciones inglesas del siglo XIX, de dominio público). Los textos están en inglés.
Cómo se eligieron
«Comentario» es el comienzo de una homilía o exposición sobre este capítulo (homilías de san Juan Crisóstomo; tratados, sermones y comentarios a los Salmos de san Agustín). «Cita» es una frase en la que las notas de la propia edición identifican la cita de un versículo de este capítulo; solo se conserva si el texto coincide con el versículo. Solo se usan obras de autoría segura. Los Salmos siguen la numeración hebrea (Agustín usa la de los Setenta: su Salmo 50 es aquí el 51).
The production, again, of the Duodecad of the Æons, is indicated by the fact that the Lord was twelve years of age when He disputed with the teachers of the law, and by the election of the apostles, for of these there were twelve.
In Thy good pleasure lies our peace. The body by its own weight gravitates towards its own place.
