2:14  And he arose and took the young child and his mother by night, and departed into Egypt1;

2:15  and was there until the death of Herod1: that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the Lord2 through the prophet3, saying, Out of Egypt did I call my son4.

2:16  Then Herod, when he saw that he was mocked of the Wise-men1, was exceeding wroth2, and sent forth3, and slew4 all the male children that were in Bethlehem5, and in all the borders thereof6, from two years old and under7, according to the time which he had exactly learned of the Wise-men8.

2:17  Then was fulfilled1 that which was spoken through Jeremiah the prophet2, saying,

2:18  A voice was heard in Ramah1, weeping and great mourning, Rachel weeping for her children2; And she would not be comforted, because they are not3.

2:19  But when Herod was dead1, behold, an angel of the Lord2 appeareth in a dream to Joseph in Egypt3, saying,

2:20  Arise and take the young child and his mother1, and go into the land of Israel2: for they3 are dead that sought the young child's life4.

2:21  And he arose and took the young child and his mother, and came into the land of Israel1.

2:22  But when he heard1 that Archelaus was reigning over Judaea2 in the room of his father Herod3, he was afraid to go thither4; and being warned [of God] in a dream5, he withdrew6 into the parts of Galilee7,

2:23  and came and dwelt in a city called Nazareth1; that it might be fulfilled which was spoken through the prophets2, that he should be called a Nazarene3.
