, Wise-men
from the east came
to
Jerusalem, saying,
After
Jesus was born in Bethlehem in Judea,
during
the time
of King Herod
, Magi
from the east arrived
in
Jerusalem,
Where is he
that
is
born King of the Jews? for
we saw his star in the east ,
and are
come to worship him.
asking,
“
Where is the
One
who
has
been
born King of the Jews? We saw His star in the east and have
come to worship Him. ”
And
when Herod
the
king heard it
, he was troubled
, and all Jerusalem with him.
When King Herod
heard this
, he was disturbed
, and all Jerusalem with him.
And gathering
together
all the chief priests and scribes of the people, he inquired
of
them where the Christ should
be born.
And when
he
had
assembled
all the chief priests and scribes of the people, he asked
them where the Christ was
to
be born.
And
they
said
unto
him,
In Bethlehem of
Judaea:
for thus
it
is written
through
the prophet ,
“
In Bethlehem in
Judea,”
they
replied,
“
for this
is what
the prophet has
written:
And
thou
Bethlehem, land of Judah, Art
in
no wise
least among the princes
of Judah :
For out of thee
shall
come forth
a governor,
Who shall
be shepherd of my people Israel.
‘But
you,
Bethlehem, in
the
land of Judah, are
by
no means
least among the rulers
of Judah ,
for out of you
will
come a ruler
who will
be the
shepherd of My people Israel. ’”
Then Herod privily
called the Wise-men,
and learned of
them exactly
what
time the star appeared.
Then Herod called the Magi
secretly
and learned from
them the
exact
time the star had
appeared.
And he
sent
them to Bethlehem, and
said ,
Go and search out
exactly
concerning
the young
child ;
and when ye
have
found
`
him, '
bring
me word
, that I also
may come
and worship him.
And sending
them to Bethlehem, he
said :
“
Go and search carefully
for
the Child ,
and when you
find
Him, report
to
me, so
that I too
may go
and worship Him. ”
And
they ,
having
heard the king, went their way ;
and
lo
, the star ,
which
they saw
in the east ,
went before
them ,
till
it came
and
stood over where the young
child was.
After
they had
heard the king, they
went on
their way, and
the star they had
seen
in the east went ahead
of
them until
it stood over the
place
where the Child was.
And
when they saw the star, they rejoiced with exceeding
great joy
.
When they saw the star, they rejoiced with great delight
.
And
they
came
into
the house and
saw the young
child with Mary
his mother ;
and they fell down and worshipped
him ;
and
opening
their treasures they
offered
unto
him gifts ,
gold and frankincense and myrrh.

gold and frankincense and myrrh.
And being
warned `of
God'
in a dream that
they
should
not return to Herod, they departed
into
their own
country another way
.
And having
been
warned in a dream not to
return to Herod, they withdrew
to
their country by
another route
.
Now
when they
were
departed,
behold
, an 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 tell thee:
for Herod will
seek
the young
child to destroy
him.

Magi
had
gone
, an angel of the Lord appeared
to Joseph in a dream .
“Get
up!”
he
said.
“
Take the Child and His mother and flee to
Egypt .
Stay
there until I tell you,
for Herod is
going
to
search
for
the Child to kill
Him. ”

he arose
and
took the young
child and his mother by night, and departed
into
Egypt ;

he got
up,
took the Child and His mother by night, and withdrew
to
Egypt ,
and
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 did
I call
my son.
where
he
stayed
until the death of Herod .
This
fulfilled what
the Lord had
spoken
through the prophet :
“
Out of Egypt I called
My Son. ”
Then
Herod,
when he
saw that he was
mocked
of
the Wise-men
, was exceeding
wroth,
and
sent
forth
, and
slew
all the male
children
that
were
in Bethlehem ,
and in
all
the
borders
thereof,
from
two years old and under, according to the time which
he had exactly
learned of
the Wise-men
.
When Herod
saw that he had
been
outwitted
by
the Magi
, he
was filled
with
rage.
Sending
orders
, he
put
to
death
all the boys
in Bethlehem and its
vicinity
who
were
two years old and under, according to the time he had learned from
the Magi
.
Then was
fulfilled
that
which
was spoken through Jeremiah
the prophet ,
saying,
Then what
was spoken through the prophet Jeremiah
was
fulfilled:
A voice was
heard in Ramah, Weeping and great mourning, Rachel weeping for her children ;
And she
would
not
be comforted, because they are not
.
“
A voice is
heard in Ramah, weeping and great mourning, Rachel weeping for her children ,
and refusing
to

But
when
Herod was
dead,
behold
, an angel of the Lord appeareth
in a dream to Joseph in Egypt ,
saying,
After
Herod died
, an angel of the Lord appeared
in a dream to Joseph in Egypt .
Arise
and
take the young
child and his mother ,
and go into
the land of Israel :
for they
are
dead
that
sought
the young
child's
life.
“Get
up!”
he
said.
“
Take the Child and His mother and go to
the land of Israel ,
for those
seeking
the Child’s
life are
now
dead
. ”
And
he
arose
and
took the young
child and his mother, and came
into
the land of Israel.
So
Joseph
got
up,
took the Child and His mother, and went
to
the land of Israel.
But when he heard

in a dream, he withdrew into
the parts
of Galilee,
