Lord, now lettest thou thy servant depart in peace, according to thy word:
Dios, ahora puedes dejar que me vaya en completa paz, tal como prometiste.
Simeón expresa que puede morir en paz porque ha visto al Salvador prometido por Dios.
📚 Contexto Histórico
In the Gospel of Luke, Simeon, a righteous and devout Jewish man, had been promised by the Holy Spirit that he would not die until he saw the Messiah. When Mary and Joseph brought the infant Jesus to the temple for purification rites as required by Jewish law, Simeon recognized Jesus as the fulfillment of that promise and uttered this prayer of praise. This event underscores the cultural and religious expectations of first-century Judaism, where the coming of the Messiah was eagerly anticipated as the hope of Israel.
