He has hidden me in the shadow of his hand.
I am like a sharp arrow in his quiver.

14 That night Joseph left for Egypt with the child and Mary, his mother, 15 and they stayed there until Herod’s death. This fulfilled what the Lord had spoken through the prophet: “I called my Son out of Egypt.”[a]

before a single day had passed.
