Matthew 2
Now
when
Jesus
was
a
born
in
Bethlehem
of
Judaea
in
the
days
of
Herod
the
king,
behold,
there
came
wise
men
from
the
east
to
Jerusalem,
2 Saying,
a
Where
is
he
that
is
born
b
King
of
the
Jews?
for
we
have
seen
his
c
star
in
the
east,
and
are
come
to
d
worship
him.
3 When
Herod
the
king
had
heard
these
things,
he
was
troubled,
and
all
Jerusalem
with
him.
4
a
And
when
he
had
gathered
all
the
chief
priests
and
scribes
of
the
people
together,
he
b
a
demanded
of
them
b
where
Christ
should
be
born.
5 And
they
said
unto
him,
In
Bethlehem
of
Judaea:
for
thus
it
is
written
by
the
prophet,
6 And
thou
a
Bethlehem,
in
the
land
of
b
Juda,
art
not
the
least
among
the
princes
of
Juda:
for
out
of
thee
shall
come
a
c
Governor,
that
shall
d
rule
my
people
Israel.
7 Then
Herod,
when
he
had
privily
called
the
wise
men,
inquired
of
them
diligently
what
time
the
star
appeared.
8 And
he
sent
them
to
Bethlehem,
and
said,
Go
and
search
diligently
for
the
young
child;
and
when
ye
have
found
him,
bring
me
word
again,
that
I
may
come
and
worship
him
also.
9 When
they
had
heard
the
king,
they
departed;
and,
lo,
the
star,
which
they
saw
in
the
east,
went
before
them,
till
it
came
and
stood
over
where
the
young
child
was.
10 When
they
saw
the
star,
they
rejoiced
with
exceeding
great
joy.
11 And
when
they
were
come
into
the
house,
they
saw
the
young
child
with
Mary
his
mother,
and
fell
down,
and
worshipped
him:
and
when
they
had
opened
their
treasures,
they
presented
unto
him
gifts;
gold,
and
a
frankincense,
and
myrrh.
12 And
being
warned
of
God
in
a
a
dream
that
they
should
not
return
to
Herod,
they
departed
into
their
own
country
another
way.
13 And
when
they
were
departed,
behold,
the
angel
of
the
Lord
appeareth
to
Joseph
in
a
dream,
saying,
Arise,
and
take
the
young
child
and
his
mother,
and
flee
into
Egypt,
and
be
thou
there
until
I
bring
thee
word:
for
Herod
will
seek
the
young
child
to
destroy
him.
14 When
he
arose,
he
took
the
young
child
and
his
mother
by
night,
and
departed
into
Egypt:
15 And
was
there
until
the
death
of
Herod:
that
it
might
be
fulfilled
which
was
spoken
of
the
Lord
by
the
prophet,
saying,
Out
of
a
Egypt
have
I
called
my
son.
16 Then
Herod,
when
he
saw
that
he
was
a
mocked
of
the
wise
men,
b
was
exceeding
wroth,
and
sent
forth,
and
c
slew
all
the
children
that
were
in
Bethlehem,
and
in
all
the
d
coasts
thereof,
from
two
years
old
and
under,
according
to
the
time
which
he
had
diligently
inquired
of
the
wise
men.
17 Then
was
fulfilled
that
which
was
spoken
by
a
Jeremy
the
prophet,
saying,
18 In
a
Rama
was
there
a
voice
heard,
lamentation,
and
weeping,
and
great
b
mourning,
Rachel
weeping
for
her
c
children,
and
would
not
be
comforted,
because
they
are
not.
19 But
when
Herod
was
dead,
behold,
an
angel
of
the
Lord
appeareth
in
a
a
dream
to
Joseph
in
Egypt,
20 Saying,
Arise,
and
take
the
young
child
and
his
mother,
and
go
into
the
a
land
of
Israel:
for
they
are
dead
which
sought
the
young
child's
life.
21 And
he
arose,
and
took
the
young
child
and
his
mother,
and
came
into
the
land
of
Israel.
22 But
when
he
heard
that
Archelaus
did
reign
in
Judaea
in
the
a
room
of
his
father
Herod,
he
was
afraid
to
go
thither:
notwithstanding,
being
warned
of
God
in
a
b
dream,
he
turned
aside
into
the
parts
of
Galilee:
23 And
he
came
and
dwelt
in
a
city
called
a
Nazareth:
that
it
might
be
fulfilled
which
was
b
spoken
by
the
prophets,
He
shall
be
called
a
c
Nazarene.
