逃往埃及

13 他们走了以后,主的使者在梦中向约瑟显现,说:“起来,带着孩子和他母亲逃到埃及去,留在那里,直到我再指示你,因为希律要寻找这孩子,把他杀掉。” 14 约瑟就起来,连夜带着孩子和他母亲往埃及去, 15 住在那里,直到希律死了,为的是要应验主藉先知所说的:“我从埃及召我的儿子出来。”

屠杀婴孩

16 希律见自己被星象家愚弄了,就大怒,于是照着他从星象家所问得的日子,下令把伯利恒和附近地方,两岁及以下的小孩全都杀死。 17 这就应验了耶利米先知所说的:

18 “在拉玛听见有声音,

是痛哭、极大哀号的声音;

拉结为她的儿女哀哭,

不肯受安慰,因为他们都不在了。”

从埃及回来

19 希律死后,在埃及,主的使者在梦中向约瑟显现, 20 说:“那些要杀害这孩子的人已经死了。起来,带着孩子和他母亲回以色列地去吧。”

逃往埃及

13 他們離開之後,主的天使在夢中向約瑟顯現,說:「起來,帶著小孩子和祂母親逃往埃及,住在那裡等候我的通知,因為希律要尋找這孩子,殺害祂。」 14 於是,約瑟起來帶著孩子和祂母親連夜逃往埃及, 15 並在那裡一直住到希律死了。這就應驗了主藉著先知所說的話:「我把兒子從埃及召出來。」

16 希律見自己被智者愚弄,大為惱怒,便照著智者所說的時間推算,下令把伯利恆附近兩歲以下的男孩殺光。 17 這正應驗了耶利米先知的話:

18 「在拉瑪有痛哭哀號的聲音,
是拉結在為兒女哀慟,
不肯接受安慰,
因為他們都死了!」

定居拿撒勒

19 希律死後,主的天使在夢中向在埃及的約瑟顯現,說: 20 「起來,帶著孩子和祂母親回以色列去吧!因為要殺害孩子的人已經死了。」

The Escape to Egypt

13 When they had gone, an angel(A) of the Lord appeared to Joseph in a dream.(B) “Get up,” he said, “take the child and his mother and escape to Egypt. Stay there until I tell you, for Herod is going to search for the child to kill him.”(C)

14 So he got up, took the child and his mother during the night and left for Egypt, 15 where he stayed until the death of Herod. And so was fulfilled(D) what the Lord had said through the prophet: “Out of Egypt I called my son.”[a](E)

16 When Herod realized that he had been outwitted by the Magi, he was furious, and he gave orders to kill all the boys in Bethlehem and its vicinity who were two years old and under, in accordance with the time he had learned from the Magi. 17 Then what was said through the prophet Jeremiah was fulfilled:(F)

18 “A voice is heard in Ramah,
    weeping and great mourning,
Rachel(G) weeping for her children
    and refusing to be comforted,
    because they are no more.”[b](H)

The Return to Nazareth

19 After Herod died, an angel(I) of the Lord appeared in a dream(J) to Joseph in Egypt 20 and said, “Get up, take the child and his mother and go to the land of Israel, for those who were trying to take the child’s life are dead.”(K)
