Matthew 2: 13-15, 19-23

2:13 And after they had gone away, se, an Angel of the Lord appeared in sleep to Joseph, ordtak: «Stå opp, and take the boy and his mother, and flee into Egypt. And remain there until I tell you. For it will happen that Herod will seek the boy to destroy him.”

2:14 And getting up, he took the boy and his mother by night, and withdrew into Egypt.

2:15 And he remained there, until the death of Herod, in order to fulfill what was spoken by the Lord through the prophet, ordtak: “Out of Egypt, I called my son.”

2:19 Deretter, when Herod had passed away, se, an Angel of the Lord appeared in sleep to Joseph in Egypt,

2:20 ordtak: «Stå opp, and take the boy and his mother, and go into the land of Israel. For those who were seeking the life of the boy have passed away.”

2:21 And rising up, he took the boy and his mother, and he went into the land of Israel.

2:22 Deretter, hearing that Archelaus reigned in Judea in place of his father Herod, he was afraid to go there. And being warned in sleep, he withdrew into parts of Galilee.

2:23 Og ankommer, he lived in a city which is called Nazareth, in order to fulfill what was spoken through the prophets: “For he shall be called a Nazarene.”
