'Directed' in the Bible

So Simeon, directed by the Spirit, came into the temple courts, and when the parents brought in the child Jesus to do for him what was customary according to the law,

and he said unto them, 'Exact no more than that directed you.'

And he charged him to tell no one, 'But, having gone away, shew thyself to the priest, and bring near for thy cleansing according as Moses directed, for a testimony to them;'

So her spirit returned, and she got up at once. Then Jesus directed that she be given something to eat.

So they did as Jesus directed, and the people all sat down.

Hath he favour to that servant because he did the things directed? I think not.

So also ye, when ye may have done all the things directed you, say -- We are unprofitable servants, because that which we owed to do -- we have done.'
