Matthew - Chapter: 2

>
2:1Now when Iesus was borne in Bethlehem of Iudea, in the dayes of Herod the king, behold, there came Wise men from the East to Hierusalem,
2:2Saying, Where is he that is borne King of the Iewes? for we haue seene his Starre in the East, and are come to worship him.
2:3When Herod the king had heard these things, he was troubled, and all Hierusalem with him.
2:4And when he had gathered all the chiefe Priests and Scribes of the people together, hee demanded of them where Christ should be borne.
2:5And they said vnto him, In Bethlehem of Iudea: For thus it is written by the Prophet;
2:6And thou Bethlehem in the land of Iuda, art not the least among the Princes of Iuda: for out of thee shall come a Gouernour, that shall rule my people Israel.
2:7Then Herod, when he had priuily called the Wise men, enquired of them diligently what time the Starre appeared:
2:8And he sent them to Bethlehem, and said, Goe, and search diligently for the yong child, and when ye haue found him, bring me word againe, that I may come and worship him also.
2:9When they had heard the King, they departed, and loe, the Starre which they saw in the East, went before them, till it came and stood ouer where the young childe was.
2:10When they saw the Starre, they reioyced with exceeding great ioy.
2:11And when they were come into the house, they saw the yong child with Mary his mother, and fell downe, and worshipped him: and when they had opened their treasures, they presented vnto him gifts, gold, and frankincense, and myrrhe.
2:12And being warned of God in a dreame, that they should not returne to Herode, they departed into their owne countrey another way.
2:13And when they were departed, behold, the Angel of the Lord appeareth to Ioseph in a dreame, saying, Arise and take the young childe, and his mother, and flee into Egypt, and bee thou there vntill I bring thee word: for Herode will seeke the young childe, to destroy him.
2:14When he arose, he tooke the yong childe and his mother by night, and departed into Egypt:
2:15And was there vntill the death of Herode, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken of the Lord by the Prophet, saying, Out of Egypt haue I called my sonne.
2:16Then Herode, when hee saw that hee was mocked of the Wise men, was exceeding wroth, and sent foorth, and slewe all the children that were in Bethlehem, and in all the coasts thereof, from two yeeres olde and vnder, according to the time, which he had diligently enquired of the Wise men.
2:17Then was fulfilled that which was spoken by Ieremie 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 Herode was dead, behold, an Angel of the Lord appeareth in a dreame to Ioseph in Egypt,
2:20Saying, Arise, and take the yong childe and his mother, and goe into the land of Israel: for they are dead which sought the yong childes life.
2:21And he arose, and tooke the yong childe and his mother, and came into the land of Israel.
2:22But when he heard that Archelaus did reigne in Iudea in the roome of his father Herod, hee was afraid to goe thither: notwithstanding, beeing warned of God in a dreame, he turned aside into the parts of Galilee:
2:23And hee came and dwelt in a city called Nazareth, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the Prophets, He shalbe called a Nazarene.

 

2:1When Jesus then was borne at Bethleem in Iudea, in the dayes of Herod the King, beholde, there came Wisemen from the East to Hierusalem,
2:2Saying, Where is that King of the Iewes that is borne? for wee haue seene his starre in the East, and are come to worship him.
2:3When King Herod heard this, he was troubled, and all Hierusalem with him.
2:4And gathering together all the chiefe Priestes and Scribes of the people, hee asked of them, where Christ should be borne.
2:5And they saide vnto him, At Beth-leem in Iudea: for so it is written by the Prophet,
2:6And thou Beth-leem in the lande of Iuda, art not the least among the Princes of Iuda: For out of thee shall come the gouernour that shall feede that my people Israel.
2:7Then Herod priuily called the Wisemen, and diligently inquired of them the time of the starre that appeared,
2:8And sent them to Beth-leem, saying, Goe, and searche diligently for the babe: and when ye haue founde him, bring mee worde againe, that I may come also, and worship him.
2:9So when they had heard the King, they departed: and loe, the starre which they had seene in the East, went before them, till it came and stoode ouer the place where the babe was.
2:10And when they sawe the starre, they reioyced with an exceeding great ioy,
2:11And went into the house, and founde the babe with Mary his mother, and fell downe, and worshipped him, and opened their treasures, and presented vnto him giftes, euen golde, and frankincense, and myrrhe.
2:12And after they were warned of God in a dreame, that they should not go againe to Herod, they returned into their countrey another way.
2:13After their departure, behold, the Angel of the Lord appeareth to Ioseph in a dreame, saying, Arise, and take the babe and his mother, and flee into Egypt, and be there til I bring thee word: for Herod will seeke the babe, to destroy him.
2:14So he arose and tooke the babe and his mother by night, and departed into Egypt,
2:15And was there vnto the death of Herod, that that might be fulfilled, which is spoken of the Lord by the Prophet, saying, Out of Egypt haue I called my sonne.
2:16Then Herod, seeing that he was mocked of the Wisemen, was exceeding wroth, and sent foorth, and slew all the male children that were in Beth-leem, and in all the coasts thereof, from two yeere old and vnder, according to the time which he had diligently searched out of the Wisemen.
2:17Then was that fulfilled which is spoken by the Prophet Ieremias, saying,
2:18In Rhama was a voyce heard, mourning, and weeping, and great howling: Rachel weeping for her children, and would not be comforted, because they were not.
2:19And whe Herod was dead, behold, an Angel of the Lord appeareth in a dreame to Ioseph in Egypt,
2:20Saying, Arise, and take the babe and his mother, and goe into the land of Israel: for they are dead which sought the babes life.
2:21Then he arose vp and tooke the babe and his mother, and came into the land of Israel.
2:22But whe he heard that Archelaus did reigne in Iudea in stead of his father Herod, he was afraide to go thither: yet after he was warned of God in a dreame, he turned aside into the parts of Galile,
2:23And went and dwelt in a citie called Nazareth, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the Prophets, which was, That hee should be called a Nazarite.

 

2:1When Iesus was borne at Bethleem a cytie of Iewry, in the tyme of Herode the kynge. Beholde, there came wyse men from the east to Ierusalem,
2:2sayinge: Where is he that is borne king of Iewes? For we haue sene hys starre in the east, and are come to worshyppe hym.
2:3When Herode the kyng had hearde these thynges, he was troubled, and all the cyte of Ierusalem with hym.
2:4And whan he had gathered all the chefe prestes and scrybes of the people togeather, he demaunded of them, where Christ shulde be borne.
2:5And they sayd vnto hym: At Bethleem in Iewrye. For thus it is wrytten by the prophet:
2:6And thou Bethleem in the lande of Iuda, art not the leest among the princes of Iuda. For oute of the shal there come vnto me the captayne, that shall gouerne my people Israel.
2:7Then Herode (when he had preuely called the wyse men) he enquyred of them diligently what tyme the starre appered,
2:8& he bad them go to Bethleem, & sayd: God your waye thither, & searche diligently for the childe. And when ye haue founde him, bryng me word agayne, that I maye come and worshyp hym also.
2:9When they had heard the kyng, they departed: and lo, the starre which they sawe in the easte, went before them, tyll it came, & stode ouer the place, wherin the chylde was.
2:10When they sawe the starre, they were exceadynge glad:
2:11and went into the house, and found the chylde with Mary his mother & fel downe flatt and worshipped hym, and opened their treasures & offered vnto hym gyftes, golde, franckincense, & myrre.
2:12And after they were warned of God in slepe (that they shuld not go agayne to Herode) they returned into their awne countre another waye.
2:13When they were departed, behold, the angel of the Lord appered to Ioseph in slepe saying, aryse, & take the chyld and his mother, and flye into Egipt: and be thou there tyll I brynge the worde. For it wyll come to passe that Herode shall seke the chylde, to destroye hym.
2:14So whan he awoke, he toke the childe and hys mother by night, and departed into Egipt,
2:15and was there vnto the deeth of Herode, that it myght be fulfylled, which was spoken of the Lorde by the prophete, sayenge: out of Egypt haue I called my sonne.
2:16Then Herode whan he sawe that he was mocked of the wyse men, he was exceading wroth, & sent forth men of warre, & slue all the chyldren that were in Bethleem, and in all the coastes, (as many as were two yeere olde or vnder) accordynge to the tyme, whych he had dilygently knowe out of the wyse men.
2:17Then was fulfylled that, which was spoken by the prophet Ieremy: where as he sayd:
2:18in Rama was there a voyce herde lamentacyon, weping, and great mourninge. Rachel weping for her chyldren, & wolde not be comforted because they were not.
2:19But when Herode was deed: beholde, an angell of the Lorde appeared in a slepe to Ioseph, in Egypte,
2:20sayenge: aryse, and take the chylde of hys mother, and go into the lande of Israell. for they are deed which sought the chyldes lyfe.
2:21And he arose, and toke the chylde and hys mother, & came into the land of Israell.
2:22But when he hearde that Arthelaus dyd raygne in Iewry, in the rowme of his father Herode, he was afrayde to go thither. Notwithstandinge, after he was warned of God in a slepe, he turned a syde into the parties of Galile,
2:23and went and dwelt in a cyte which is called Nazareth: that it might be fulfylled which was spoken by the prophetes: he shalbe called a Nazarite.
