Whiston(i)
2 Saying, Where is he that is born King of the Jews? for we have seen his star in the east, and are come to worship him.
3 When Herod the king had heard [it], he was troubled, and Jerusalem with him.
4 And when he had gathered all the chief priests and scribes of the people together, he demanded where Christ should be born.
5 And they said unto him, In Bethlehem of Judea: for thus [it is] written by the prophet;
6 And thou Bethlehem of the land of Juda, art thou the least among the princes of Juda? for out of thee shall come a Governor that shall rule my People Israel.
7 Then Herod, when he had privily called the wise-men, enquired of them diligently what time the star appeared.
8 And he sent them to Bethlehem, and said unto them, Go, and search diligently for the young child: And when ye shall have found [him], bring me word again, that I may come and worship him also.
9 When they had heard the king, they departed, and lo, the star which they saw in the east, went before them, till it came and stood over the young child.
10 When they saw the star, they rejoyced with exceeding great joy.
11 And when they were come into the house, they saw the child with Mary his mother, and fell down and worshipped him: and when they had opened their treasures, they presented unto him gifts; gold, and frankincense, and myrrh.
12 And being warned of God in a dream, that they should not return to Herod, they departed into their own Country another way.
13 And when they were departed, behold the angel of the Lord appeared to Joseph in a dream, saying, Arise, and take the young child, and his mother, and flee into Egypt, and be thou there until I tell thee: for Herod will seek the young child to destroy him.
14 When he arose, he took the young child and his mother by night, and departed into Egypt:
15 And was there until the death of Herod: that it might be fulfilled which was spoken of the Lord by the prophet, saying, Out of Egypt have I called my son.
16 Then Herod, when he saw that he was mocked of the wise men, was exceeding wroth, and sent forth, and slew all the children that were in Bethlehem, and in all the coasts thereof, from two years old and under, according to the time which he had diligently enquired of the wise-men.
