Luke 2:35
Berean Standard Bible (BSB)
so that the thoughts of many hearts will be revealed— and a sword will pierce your soul as well.”
In context
33 The Child’s father and mother were amazed at what was spoken about Him.
34 Then Simeon blessed them and said to His mother Mary: “Behold, this Child is appointed to cause the rise and fall of many in Israel, and to be a sign that will be spoken against,
35 so that the thoughts of many hearts will be revealed— and a sword will pierce your soul as well.”
36 There was also a prophetess named Anna, the daughter of Phanuel, of the tribe of Asher, who was well along in years. She had been married for seven years,
37 and then was a widow to the age of eighty-four. She never left the temple, but worshiped night and day, fasting and praying.
