The Flight to Egypt
13 Now when they had departed, behold, an (A)angel of the [a]Lord *(B)appeared to Joseph in a dream, saying, “Get up! Take the Child and His mother and flee to Egypt, and remain there until I tell you; for Herod is going to search for the Child to destroy Him.”
14 So [b]Joseph got up and took the Child and His mother while it was still night, and departed for Egypt. 15 And he [c]remained there until the death of Herod, in order that what had been spoken by the [d]Lord through the prophet would be fulfilled, saying, “(C)Out of Egypt I called (D)My Son.”
