Matthew:2:10-16

*
When they saw the star ,
they rejoiced with exceeding great joy .
*
And when they were come into the house ,
they saw the young child with Mary his mother ,
and fell down ,
and worshipped him :
and when they had opened their treasures ,
they presented unto him gifts ;
gold ,
and frankincense ,
and myrrh .
*
And being warned of God in a dream that they should not return to Herod ,
they departed into their own country another way .
*
And when they were departed ,
behold ,
the angel of the Lord appeareth to Joseph in a dream ,
saying ,
Arise ,
and take the young child and his mother ,
and flee into Egypt ,
and be thou there until I bring thee word :
for Herod will seek the young child to destroy him .
*
When he arose ,
he took the young child and his mother by night ,
and departed into Egypt :
*
And was there until the death of Herod :
that it might be fulfilled which was spoken of the Lord by the prophet ,
saying ,
Out of Egypt have I called my son .
*
Then Herod ,
when he saw that he was mocked of the wise men ,
was exceeding wroth ,
and sent forth ,
and slew all the children that were in Bethlehem ,
and in all the coasts thereof ,
from two years old and under ,
according to the time which he had diligently enquired of the wise men .
