30 ὅτι εἶδον οἱ ὀφθαλμοί μου τὸ σωτήριόν σου, 30 For my eyes have seen your salvation,
31  ἡτοίμασας κατὰ πρόσωπον πάντων τῶν λαῶν, 31 Which you have prepared in the presence of all peoples,
32 φῶς εἰς ἀποκάλυψιν ἐθνῶν καὶ δόξαν λαοῦ σου Ἰσραήλ. 32 A Light of revelation to the Gentiles, and the glory of your people Israēl.”
