New Living Translation
Division and Unbelief

Will the Messiah come from Galilee? 42 For the Scriptures clearly state that the Messiah will be born of the royal line of David, in Bethlehem, the village where King David was born.”[b] 43 So the crowd was divided about him. 44 Some even wanted him arrested, but no one laid a hand on him.
