Matt 2:7-18
7 Then Herod, when he had secretly called the wise men, determined from them what time
the star appeared.
8 And he sent them to Bethlehem and said, “Go and search carefully for the young
Child, and when you have found Him, bring back word to me, that I may come and worship Him
also.”
9 When they heard the king, they departed; and behold, the star which they had seen in the
East went before them, till it came and stood over where the young Child was.
10 When they saw the star, they rejoiced with exceedingly great joy.
11 And when they had come into the house, they saw the young Child with Mary His mother,
and fell down and worshiped Him. And when they had opened their treasures, they presented
gifts to Him: gold, frankincense, and myrrh.
12 Then, being divinely warned in a dream that they should not return to Herod, they
departed for their own country another way.
13 Now when they had departed, behold, an angel of the Lord appeared to Joseph in a
dream, saying, “Arise, take the young Child and His mother, flee to Egypt, and stay
there until I bring you word; for Herod will seek the young Child to destroy Him.”
14 When he arose, he took the young Child and His mother by night and departed for Egypt,
15 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 I called My Son.”
16 Then Herod, when he saw that he was deceived by the wise men, was exceedingly angry;
and he sent forth and put to death all the male children who were in Bethlehem and in all
its districts, from two years old and under, according to the time which he had determined
from the wise men.
17 Then was fulfilled what was spoken by Jeremiah the prophet, saying:
18 “ A voice was heard in Ramah, lamentation, weeping, and great mourning, Rachel
weeping for her children, refusing to be comforted, because they are no more.”
