Matthew 2

1NowG1161 JesusG2424 having been bornG1080 in BethlehemG965 of Judaea, in the daysG2250 of HerodG2264 the kingG935, beholdG2400 magiG3097 from the eastG395 arrived at JerusalemG2414, saying, 2WhereG4226 isG1510 the kingG935 of the JewsG2453 that has beenG1510 bornG5088? for we have seenG3708 his starG792 in the eastG395, and have comeG2064 to do him homage. 3But HerodG2264 the kingG935 having heardG191 [of it], was troubledG5015, and all JerusalemG2414 with him; 4and, assembling all the chiefG749 priestsG749 and scribesG1122 of the peopleG2992, he inquiredG4441 of them whereG4226 the ChristG5547 should be bornG1080. 5And they saidG3004 to him, In BethlehemG965 of Judaea; for thusG3779 it is writtenG1125 through the prophetG4396: 6And thou BethlehemG965, landG1093 of Juda, art in no wise the leastG1646 among the governorsG2232 of Juda; for out of thee shall goG1831 forthG1831 a leader who shall shepherdG4165 my peopleG2992 IsraelG2474. 7ThenG5119 HerodG2264, having secretlyG2977 calledG2564 the magiG3097, inquired of them accurately the timeG5550 of the starG792 that was appearing; 8and having sentG3992 them to BethlehemG965, saidG3004, GoG4198, search out accurately concerningG4012 the childG3813, and when ye shall have foundG2147 [him] bring me back wordG518, so that I alsoG2532 may comeG2064 and do him homage. 9And they having heardG191 the kingG935 went their way; and lo, the starG792, which they had seenG3708 in the eastG395, went before them until it cameG2064 and stoodG2476 over the place whereG3757 the little childG3813 wasG1510. 10And when they sawG3708 the starG792 they rejoicedG5463 with exceeding greatG3173 joyG5479. 11And having comeG2064 into the houseG3614 they sawG3708 the little childG3813 with MaryG3137 his motherG3384, and fallingG4098 downG4098 did him homage. And having openedG455 their treasuresG2344, they offeredG4374 to him giftsG1435, goldG5557, and frankincenseG3030, and myrrhG4666. 12And being divinely instructed in a dreamG3677 not to returnG344 to HerodG2264, they departed into their own countryG5561 another wayG3598. 13NowG1161, they having departed, beholdG2400, an angelG32 of [the] LordG2962 appearsG5316 in a dreamG3677 to JosephG2501, sayingG3004, AriseG1453, takeG3880 to [thee] the little childG3813 and his motherG3384, and fleeG5343 into EgyptG125, and beG1510 there until I shall tellG3004 thee; for HerodG2264 will seekG2212 the little childG3813 to destroyG622 it. 14And, having arisenG1453, he tookG3880 to [him] the little childG3813 and his motherG3384 by nightG3571, and departed into EgyptG125. 15And he wasG1510 there until the death of HerodG2264, that that might beG1510 fulfilled which wasG1510 spoken by [the] LordG2962 through the prophetG4396, sayingG3004, Out of EgyptG125 have I calledG2564 my sonG5207. 16Then HerodG2264, seeingG3708 that he had been mockedG1702 by the magiG3097, was greatlyG3029 enraged; and sentG649 and slew all the boys which [were] in BethlehemG965, and in all its borders, from two years and under, accordingG2596 to the timeG5550 which he had accurately inquired from the magiG3097. 17ThenG5119 was fulfilled that which was spoken through Jeremias the prophetG4396, sayingG3004, 18A voiceG5456 has beenG1510 heardG191 in Rama, weepingG2799, and greatG4183 lamentation: Rachel weepingG2799 [for] her childrenG5043, and would not beG1510 comfortedG3870, because they areG1510 not. 19But HerodG2264 having died, beholdG2400, an angelG32 of [the] LordG2962 appearsG5316 in a dreamG3677 to JosephG2501 in EgyptG125, saying, 20AriseG1453, takeG3880 to [thee] the little childG3813 and its motherG3384, and goG4198 into the landG1093 of IsraelG2474: for they who soughtG2212 the lifeG5590 of the little childG3813 are dead. 21And he arose and tookG3880 to [him] the little childG3813 and its motherG3384, and cameG1525 into the landG1093 of IsraelG2474; 22but having heardG191 that 'Archelaus reignsG936 over Judaea, instead of HerodG2264 his fatherG3962,' he was afraidG5399 to goG565 there; and having been divinely instructed in a dreamG3677, he wentG565 awayG565 into the partsG3313 of GalileeG1056, 23and cameG2064 and dwelt in a townG4172 calledG2564 NazarethG3478; so that that should be fulfilled which was spoken through the prophetsG4396, He shall be calledG2564 a Nazaraene.
