The Flight into Egypt

¹³ Now when they had departed, behold, an angel of the Lord appeared to Joseph in a dream, saying, “Arise, take the young Child and His mother, flee to Egypt, and stay there until I bring you word; for Herod will seek the young Child to destroy Him.”

³³ These things I have spoken to you, that ^(A)in Me you may have peace. ^(B)In the world you ^[a]will have tribulation; but be of good cheer, ^(C)I have overcome the world.”

²⁴ So when they heard that, they raised their voice to God with one accord and said: “Lord, ^(A)You are God, who made heaven and earth and the sea, and all that is in them, ²⁵ who ^[a]by the mouth of Your servant David have said:

²⁷ “For ^(C)truly against ^(D)Your holy Servant Jesus, ^(E)whom You anointed, both Herod and Pontius Pilate, with the Gentiles and the people of Israel, were gathered together ^28 (F)to do whatever Your hand and Your purpose determined before to be done. ²⁹ Now, Lord, look on their threats, and grant to Your servants ^(G)that with all boldness they may speak Your word, ³⁰ by stretching out Your hand to heal, ^(H)and that signs and wonders may be done ^(I)through the name of ^(J)Your holy Servant Jesus.”

³¹ And when they had prayed, ^(K)the place where they were assembled together was shaken; and they were all filled with the Holy Spirit, ^(L)and they spoke the word of God with boldness.

²⁰ Remember the word that I said to you, ^(A)‘A servant is not greater than his master.’ If they persecuted Me, they will also persecute you. ^(B)If they kept My word, they will keep yours also.
