Saying3004, Where4226 is2076 he that is born5088 King935 of the Jews2453? for1063 we have seen1492 his846 star792 in1722 the east395, and2532 are come2064 to worship4352 him846.

When1161 Herod2264 the king935 had heard191 these things, he was troubled5015, and2532 all3956 Jerusalem2414 with3326 him846.

2:5

And1161 they said2036 unto him846, In1722 Bethlehem965 of Judaea2449: for1063 thus3779 it is written1125 by1223 the prophet4396,

2:6

And2532 thou4771 Bethlehem965, in the land1093 of Juda2448, art1488 not3760 the least1646 among1722 the princes2232 of Juda2448: for1063 out of1537 thee4675 shall come1831 a Governor2233, that3748 shall rule4165 my3450 people2992 Israel2474.

2:7

Then5119 Herod2264, when he had privily2977 called2564 the wise men3097, enquired198 of3844 them846 diligently198 what time5550 the star792 appeared5316.

And2532 he sent3992 them846 to1519 Bethlehem965, and said2036, Go4198 and search1833 diligently199 for4012 the young child3813; and1161 when1875 ye have found2147 him, bring518 me3427 word again518, that3704 I may come2064 and worship4352 him846 also2504.

2:9

When1161 they had heard191 the king935, they departed4198; and2532, lo2400, the star792, which3739 they saw1492 in1722 the east395, went before4254 them846, till2193 it came2064 and stood2476 over1883 where3757 the young child3813 was2258.

2:10

When1161 they saw1492 the star792, they rejoiced5463 with exceeding4970 great3173 joy5479.

2:11

And2532 when they were come2064 into1519 the house3614, they saw2147 the young child3813 with3326 Miriam3137 his846 mother3384, and2532 fell down4098, and worshipped4352 him846: and2532 when they had opened455 their846 treasures2344, they presented4374 unto him846 gifts1435; gold5557, and2532 frankincense3030 and2532 myrrh4666.

2:12

And2532 being warned of Elohim5537 in2596 a dream3677 that they should344 not3361 return344 to4314 Herod2264, they departed402 into1519 their own846 country5561 another1223 way3598.

2:14

When1161 he arose1453, he took3880 the young child3813 and2532 his846 mother3384 by night3571, and2532 departed402 into1519 Egypt125:

Then5119 Herod2264, when he saw1492 that3754 he was mocked1702 of5259 the wise men3097, was exceeding3029 wroth2373, and2532 sent forth649, and slew337 all3956 the children3816 that were in1722 Bethlehem965, and2532 in1722 all3956 the coasts3725 thereof846, from575 two years old1332 and2532 under2736, according2596 to the time5550 which3739 he had diligently enquired198 of3844 the wise men3097.

2:17

Then5119 was fulfilled4137 that which3588 was spoken4483 by5259 Jeremiah2408 the prophet4396, saying3004,

Saying3004, Arise1453, and take3880 the young child3813 and2532 his846 mother3384, and2532 go4198 into1519 the land1093 of Israel2474: for1063 they are dead2348 which3588 sought2212 the young child's3813 life5590.

2:21

And1161 he arose1453, and took3880 the young child3813 and2532 his846 mother3384, and2532 came2064 into1519 the land1093 of Israel2474.

But1161 when he heard191 that3754 Archelaus745 did reign936 in1909 Judaea2449 in the room473 of his846 father3962 Herod2264, he was afraid5399 to go565 thither1563: notwithstanding1161, being warned of Elohim5537 in2596 a dream3677, he turned aside402 into1519 the parts3313 of Galilee1056:

2:23

And2532 he came2064 and dwelt2730 in1519 a city4172 called3004 Nazareth3478: that3704 it might be fulfilled4137 which3588 was spoken4483 by1223 the prophets4396, 3754 He shall be called2564 a Nazarene3480.
