Matthew 2:4-6

Modern English Version

⁴And when he had gathered all the chief priests and scribes of the people together, he inquired of them where Christ should be born. ⁵They told him, “In Bethlehem of Judea, for this is what the prophet wrote:

⁶‘And you, Bethlehem, in the land of Judah,
are no longer least among the princes of Judah;
for out of you shall come a Governor,
who will shepherd My people Israel.’^[a]”
