For we saw His star in the east and have come to worship Him." 3 When Herodthe king heard this, he was troubled, and all Jerusalemwith him. 4 And gathering together all the chief priests and scribes of the people, he inquired of them where the 2:4 From Gr Christos, which means Messiah (Heb for Anointed One)Messiah was to be born. 5 They said to him, "In Bethlehemof Judea; for this is what has been written 2:5 Or throughby 2:5 I.e., Micahthe prophet:
6 ‘And you, Bethlehem, land of Judah,
Are by no means least among the leaders of Judah;
For from you will come forth a Ruler
Who will shepherd My people Israel.’ "
7 Then Herodsecretly called for the magi and determined from them the exact 2:7 Lit time of the appearing startime the star appeared. 8 And he sent them to Bethlehemand said, "Go and search carefully for the Child; and when you have found Him, report to me, so that I too may come and worship Him." 9 After hearing the king, they went on their way; and behold, the star, which they had seen in the east, went on ahead of them until it came to a stop over the place where the Child was to be found.10 When they saw the star, they rejoiced exceedingly with great joy. 11 And after they came into the house, they saw the Child with His mother Mary; and they fell down and 2:11 Lit prostrated themselves to; i.e., lay face down in a prone position to indicate worshipworshiped Him. Then they opened their treasures and presented to Him gifts of gold, frankincense, and myrrh. 12 And after being warned by God in a dream not to return to Herod, the magi left for their own country by another way.

13 Now when they had gone, behold, an angel of the Lord *appeared to Josephin a dream and said, "Get up! Take the Child and His mother and flee to Egypt, and stay there until I tell you; for Herodis going to search for the Child to kill Him."

18 "A voice was heard in Ramah,
Weeping and great mourning,
Rachelweeping for her children;
And she refused to be comforted,
Because they were no more."
19 But when Heroddied, behold, an angel of the Lord *appeared in a dream to Josephin Egypt, and said, 20 "Get up, take the Child and His mother, and go to the land of Israel; for those who sought the Child’s life are dead." 21 So 2:21 Lit heJosephgot up, took the Child and His mother, and came into the land of Israel. 22 But when he heard that Archelauswas reigning over Judeain place of his father Herod, he was afraid to go there.
