Matthew 2:12-15

New American Standard Bible 1995

¹² And having been ^(A)warned by God ^(B)in a dream not to return to Herod, the magi left for their own country by another way.

The Flight to Egypt

¹³ Now when they had gone, behold, an ^(C)angel of the Lord *^(D)appeared to Joseph in a dream and said, “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 ^[a]Joseph got up and took the Child and His mother while it was still night, and left for Egypt. ¹⁵ He ^[b]remained there until the death of Herod. This was to fulfill what had been spoken by the Lord through the prophet: “^(E)Out of Egypt I called ^(F)My Son.”
