Matthew 2:13-23
13And whenG1161 theyG846 were departedG402, beholdG3708, the angelG32 of the LordG2962 appearethG5316 to JosephG2501 inG2596 a dreamG3677, sayingG3004, AriseG1453, and takeG3880 the young childG3588G3813 andG2532 hisG846 motherG3588G3384, andG2532 fleeG5343 intoG1519 EgyptG125, andG2532 be thouG1510 thereG1563 untilG2193 I bringG3004 theeG4771 wordG3004: forG1063 HerodG2264 willG3195 seekG2212 the young childG3588G3813 to destroyG622 himG846. 14WhenG1161 he aroseG1453, he tookG3880 the young childG3588G3813 andG2532 hisG846 motherG3588G3384 by nightG3571, andG2532 departedG402 intoG1519 EgyptG125: 15AndG2532 wasG1510 thereG1563 untilG2193 the deathG3588G5054 of HerodG2264: thatG2443 it might be fulfilledG4137 which was spokenG2046 ofG5259 the LordG3588G2962 byG1223 the prophetG3588G4396, sayingG3004, Out ofG1537 EgyptG125 have I calledG2564 myG1473 sonG3588G5207.
16ThenG5119 HerodG2264, when he sawG3708 thatG3754 he was mockedG1702 ofG5259 the wise menG3588G3097, wasG2373 exceedingG3029 wrothG2373, andG2532 sent forthG649, and slewG337 allG3956 the childrenG3588G3816 that wereG3588 inG1722 BethlehemG965, andG2532 inG1722 allG3956 the coastsG3588G3725 thereofG846, fromG575 two years oldG1332 andG2532 underG2736, according toG2596 the timeG3588G5550 whichG3739 he had diligently enquiredG198 ofG3844 the wise menG3588G3097. 17ThenG5119 was fulfilledG4137 that which was spokenG2046 byG5259 JeremiahG2408 the prophetG3588G4396, sayingG3004, 18InG1722 RamahG4471 was thereG191 a voiceG5456 heardG191, lamentationG2355, andG2532 weepingG2805, andG2532 greatG4183 mourningG3602, RachelG4478 weepingG2799 for herG846 childrenG3588G5043, andG2532 wouldG2309 notG3756 be comfortedG3870, becauseG3754 they areG1510 notG3756. 19
But whenG1161 HerodG3588G2264 was deadG5053, beholdG3708, an angelG32 of the LordG2962 appearethG5316 inG2596 a dreamG3677 to JosephG2501 inG1722 EgyptG125, 20SayingG3004, AriseG1453, and takeG3880 the young childG3588G3813 andG2532 hisG846 motherG3588G3384, andG2532 goG4198 intoG1519 the landG1093 of IsraelG2474: forG1063 they are deadG2348 whichG3588 soughtG2212 the young child’sG3588G3813 lifeG3588G5590. 21AndG1161 he aroseG1453, and tookG3880 the young childG3588G3813 andG2532 hisG846 motherG3588G3384, andG2532 cameG2064 intoG1519 the landG1093 of IsraelG2474. 22ButG1161 when he heardG191 thatG3754 ArchelausG745 did reignG936 inG1909 JudaeaG3588G2449 in the room ofG473 hisG846 fatherG3588G3962 HerodG2264, he was afraidG5399 to goG565 thitherG1563: notwithstandingG1161, being warned of GodG5537 inG2596 a dreamG3677, he turned asideG402 intoG1519 the partsG3588G3313 of GalileeG3588G1056: 23AndG2532 he cameG2064 and dweltG2730 inG1519 a cityG4172 calledG3004 NazarethG3478: thatG3704 it might be fulfilledG4137 whichG3588 was spokenG2046 byG1223 the prophetsG3588G4396, He shall be calledG2564 a NazareneG3480.
