Matthew - Chapter: 2

>
2:1Now when Jesus was born in Bethlehem of Judaea in the days of Herod the king, behold, there came wise men from the east to Jerusalem,
2:2Saying, Where is he that is born King of the Jews? for we have seen his star in the east, and are come to worship him.
2:3When Herod the king had heard these things, he was troubled, and all Jerusalem with him.
2:4And when he had gathered all the chief priests and scribes of the people together, he demanded of them where Christ should be born.
2:5And they said unto him, In Bethlehem of Judaea: for thus it is written by the prophet,
2:6And thou Bethlehem, in the land of Juda, art not the least among the princes of Juda: for out of thee shall come a Governor, that shall rule my people Israel.
2:7Then Herod, when he had privily called the wise men, enquired of them diligently what time the star appeared.
2:8And 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.
2:9When 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.
2:10When they saw the star, they rejoiced with exceeding great joy.
2:11And 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 frankincense, and myrrh.
2:12And being warned of God in a dream that they should not return to Herod, they departed into their own country another way.
2:13And 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.
2:14When he arose, he took the young child and his mother by night, and departed into Egypt:
2:15And was there until the death of Herod: that it might be fulfilled which was spoken of the Lord by the prophet, saying, Out of Egypt have I called my son.
2:16Then Herod, when he saw that he was mocked of the wise men, was exceeding wroth, and sent forth, and slew all the children that were in Bethlehem, and in all the coasts thereof, from two years old and under, according to the time which he had diligently enquired of the wise men.
2:17Then was fulfilled that which was spoken by Jeremy the prophet, saying,
2:18In Rama was there a voice heard, lamentation, and weeping, and great mourning, Rachel weeping for her children, and would not be comforted, because they are not.
2:19But when Herod was dead, behold, an angel of the Lord appeareth in a dream to Joseph in Egypt,
2:20Saying, Arise, and take the young child and his mother, and go into the land of Israel: for they are dead which sought the young child's life.
2:21And he arose, and took the young child and his mother, and came into the land of Israel.
2:22But when he heard that Archelaus did reign in Judaea in the room of his father Herod, he was afraid to go thither: notwithstanding, being warned of God in a dream, he turned aside into the parts of Galilee:
2:23And he came and dwelt in a city called Nazareth: that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophets, He shall be called a Nazarene.

 

2:1Now when Jesus was born in Bethlehem of Judea in the days of Herod the king, behold, wise men from the east came to Jerusalem,
2:2saying, "Where is He who has been born King of the Jews? Since we have seen His star in the east and have come to worship Him."
2:3When Herod the king had heard these things, he was troubled, and all Jerusalem with him.
2:4And when he had gathered all the chief priests and scribes of the people together, he demanded of them where Christ would be born.
2:5And they said to him, "In Bethlehem of Judea, because, thus it is written by the prophet:
2:6'And you Bethlehem, in the land of Judah, are not the least among the rulers of Judah; because out of you will come a Ruler that will rule My people Israel.'"
2:7Then Herod, when he had privately called the wise men, diligently inquired of them what time the star appeared.
2:8And he sent them to Bethlehem and said, "Go and search diligently for the young Child, and when you have found Him, bring back word to me, that I may come and worship Him also."
2:9After they heard the king, they departed; and behold, the star which they had seen in the east, went before them, until it came and stood over where the young Child was.
2:10When they saw the star, they rejoiced with exceedingly great joy.
2:11And when they had come into the house, they saw the young Child with Mary His mother, and fell down, and worshiped Him. And when they had opened their treasures, they presented gifts to Him: gold, frankincense, and myrrh.
2:12And being warned by God in a dream that they should not return to Herod, they departed into their own country another way.
2:13Now when they had departed, behold, the angel of the Lord appeared to Joseph in a dream, saying, "Arise, take the young Child and His mother, flee into Egypt, and wait there until I bring you word; because Herod will seek the young Child to destroy Him."
2:14When he arose, he took the young Child and His mother by night and departed into Egypt,
2:15and was there until the death of Herod, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the Lord through the prophet, saying, "Out of Egypt I have called My Son."
2:16Then Herod, when he saw that he was mocked because of the wise men, was exceedingly angry; and he sent forth and killed all the children who were in Bethlehem and in all of its districts, from two years old and under, according to the time which he had diligently inquired of the wise men.
2:17Then was fulfilled that which was spoken through Jeremiah the prophet, saying:
2:18"A voice was heard in Ramah, lamentation, weeping, and great mourning, Rachel weeping for her children, and would not be comforted, because they are no more."
2:19But when Herod was dead, behold, an angel of the Lord appeared in a dream to Joseph in Egypt,
2:20saying, "Arise, and take the young Child and His mother, and go into the land of Israel, because those who sought the young Child's life are dead."
2:21Then he arose, and took the young Child and His mother, and came into the land of Israel.
2:22But when he heard that Archelaus was reigning in Judea in the position of his father Herod, he was afraid to go there. However being warned of God in a dream, he turned aside into the region of Galilee.
2:23And he came and dwelt in a city called Nazareth, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken through the prophets, "He will be called a Nazarene."
