YLT
Young's Literal Translation
Now
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,
And
Jesus having
been
born in Beth-Lehem
of Judea,
in the days of Herod the king, lo
, mages
from the east came
to Jerusalem,
Saying, 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.
saying, `
Where is he who
was
born king of the Jews? for we saw
his star in the east, and we
came
to bow
to
him. '
When
Herod the king had
heard these
things
, he
was troubled
, and all Jerusalem with him .
And
Herod the king having
heard, was stirred
, and all Jerusalem with him ,
And when
he
had
gathered all the chief priests and scribes of the people together
, he demanded
of
them where Christ should
be
born.
and having
gathered all the chief priests and scribes of the people, he was
inquiring
from
them where the
Christ is
born.
And they said unto
him, In Bethlehem
of Judaea:
for thus it is
written by
the prophet,
And they said to
him, `
In Beth-Lehem
of Judea,
for thus it hath
been
written through
the prophet,
And 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.
And thou, Beth-Lehem,
the land of Judah
, thou
art by
no
means
the least among the leaders
of Judah,
for out of thee shall come one
leading
, who
shall feed
My people Israel. '
Then Herod, when
he
had
privily
called the wise
men
, enquired
of
them diligently
what
time the star appeared.
Then Herod, privately
having
called the mages
, did
inquire
exactly
from
them the
time of
the appearing
star ,
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
.
and having
sent them to Beth-Lehem
, he
said, `Having
gone
--
inquire
ye
exactly
for the child ,
and whenever
ye may
have found, bring me back
word, that I also
having
come may
bow
to
him. '
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.
And
they ,
having
heard the king, departed, and
lo, the star, that
they did
see
in the east, did
go
before them, till ,
having
come,
it stood over where the child was.
When
they
saw
the star, they rejoiced with exceeding great joy .
And
having
seen
the star, they rejoiced with exceeding great joy ,
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 frankincense and myrrh .
and having
come to
the house, they found
the child with Mary his mother, and having
fallen
down they
bowed
to
him ,
and having
opened their treasures, they presented to
him gifts ,
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
divinely
warned in a dream not to turn
back
unto
Herod, through
another
way
they withdrew
to
their own region
.
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.
And on
their
having
withdrawn
, lo
, a
messenger
of the Lord doth
appear
in a dream to
Joseph
, saying, `Having
risen
, take the child and his mother, and flee to
Egypt, and be thou there till
I may
speak
to
thee ,
for Herod is
about
to
seek the child to destroy him. '
When
he arose
, he
took the young
child and his mother by night, and departed
into
Egypt :
And
he, having
risen,
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 of
the Lord by
the prophet, saying, Out of Egypt have
I called
my son.
and he
was there till
the death of Herod ,
that it might be fulfilled that
was spoken by
the Lord through
the prophet, saying, `
Out of Egypt I did
call
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 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
.
Then Herod, having
seen
that he was deceived
by
the mages
, was very
wroth, and having
sent forth, he
slew all the male
children in Beth-Lehem
, and in all its
borders
, from two years and under, according to the time that
he inquired
exactly
from
the mages
.
Then was fulfilled that which was spoken by Jeremy
the prophet, saying,
Then was fulfilled that which was spoken by Jeremiah
the prophet, saying,
In
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.
`
A voice in
Ramah
was
heard --

for '

when

dead
, behold
, an
angel
of the Lord appeareth
in a dream to Joseph in Egypt,
And
Herod having
died
, lo
, a
messenger
of the Lord in a dream doth
appear
to Joseph in Egypt,
Saying, 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.
saying, `Having
risen
, take the child and his mother, and be
going
to
the land of Israel ,
for they have
died
--
those
seeking
the life of
the
child
. '

, and
took the young
child and his mother, and came into
the land of Israel .

in
the
room
of his father Herod
, he was afraid to go thither :

, being
warned of
God
in a dream, he turned
aside
into
the parts of Galilee :

Judea
instead
of Herod
his father, he was afraid to go thither, and

warned in a dream, he withdrew
to
the parts of Galilee ,

Nazarene
.
