Responsum acceperat Simeon a Spiritu Sancto,
non visurum se mortem
nisi videret Christum Domini :
et benedixit Deum, et dixit :
nunc dimittis servum tuum in pace,
quia viderunt oculi mei salutare tuum, Domine.

Lumen ad revelationem gentium,
et gloriam plebis tuae Israel.
A light to lighten the gentiles,
and to be the glory of Israel, your people.
