Matthew 2 :: New American Standard Bible 2020 (NASB20)

‘AND YOU, BETHLEHEM ^G965, LAND ^G1093 OF JUDAH ^G2455,

ARE BY NO ^G3760 MEANS ^G3760 LEAST ^G1646 AMONG ^G1722 THE LEADERS ^G2233 OF JUDAH ^G2455;

FOR FROM YOU WILL COME ^G1831 FORTH ^G1831 A RULER ^G2233

WHO ^G3748 WILL SHEPHERD ^G4165 MY PEOPLE ^G2992 ISRAEL ^G2474.’”

Then ^G5119 Herod ^G2264 secretly ^G2977 called ^G2564 for the magi ^G3097 and determined ^G198 from them the exact ^G5550 [fn]time ^G5550 the star ^G792 appeared ^G5316.

Now ^G1161 when they had gone ^G402, behold ^G2400, an angel ^G32 of the Lord ^G2962 *appeared ^G5316 to Joseph ^G2501 in a dream ^G3677 and said ^G3004, “Get ^G1453 up ^G1453! Take ^G3880 the Child ^G3813 and His mother ^G3384 and flee ^G5343 to Egypt ^G125, and stay ^G1510 there ^G1563 until ^G2193 I tell ^G3004 you; for Herod ^G2264 is ^G3195 going ^G3195 to ^G3195 search ^G2212 for ^G2212 the Child ^G3813 to kill ^G622 Him.”

So ^G1161 [fn]Joseph got ^G1453 up ^G1453 and took ^G3880 the Child ^G3813 and His mother ^G3384 while it was still night ^G3571, and left ^G402 for Egypt ^G125.

Then ^G5119 when Herod ^G2264 saw ^G3708 that he had been tricked ^G1702 by the magi ^G3097, he became very ^G3029 enraged ^G2373, and sent ^G649 men and killed ^G337 all ^G3956 the boys ^G3816 who were in Bethlehem ^G965 and all ^G3956 its vicinity ^G3725 [fn]who were two ^G1332 years ^G1332 old ^G1332 or under ^G2737, according ^G2596 to the time ^G5550 which ^G3739 he had determined ^G198 from the magi ^G3097.

“A VOICE ^G5456 WAS HEARD ^G191 IN RAMAH ^G4471,

WEEPING ^G2805 AND GREAT ^G4183 MOURNING ^G3602,

RACHEL ^G4478 WEEPING ^G2805 FOR HER CHILDREN ^G5043;

AND SHE REFUSED ^G3756 G2309 TO BE COMFORTED ^G3870,

BECAUSE ^G3754 THEY WERE NO ^G3756 MORE.”

But when Herod ^G2264 died ^G5053, behold ^G2400, an angel ^G32 of the Lord ^G2962 *appeared ^G5316 in a dream ^G3677 to Joseph ^G2501 in Egypt ^G125, and said ^G3004,
