Phonetic (Greek): kai pempsas aytoys eis Bethleem eipen· Poreuthentes ⸂exetasate akribos⸃ peri toy paidiou· epan de ehyrete, apangeilate moi, hopos kago elthon proskyneso aytῷ.

Edified Edition (EDE)And he sent them to Bethlehem and said, "Go and search diligently for the young child; and when you have found Him, bring word back to me, that I may come and worship Him also."

καὶ πέμψας αὐτοὺς εἰς Βηθλέεμ εἶπεν· Πορευθέντες ⸂ἐξετάσατε ἀκριβῶς⸃ περὶ τοῦ παιδίου· ἐπὰν δὲ εὕρητε, ἀπαγγείλατέ μοι, ὅπως κἀγὼ ἐλθὼν προσκυνήσω αὐτῷ.

Edified Edition (EDE)When they heard the king, they departed; and behold, the star which they had seen in the East went before them, till it came and stood over where the young child was.

οἱ δὲ ἀκούσαντες τοῦ βασιλέως ἐπορεύθησαν, καὶ ἰδοὺ ὁ ἀστὴρ ὃν εἶδον ἐν τῇ ἀνατολῇ προῆγεν αὐτούς, ἕως ἐλθὼν ⸀ἐστάθη ἐπάνω οὗ ἦν τὸ παιδίον.

Edified Edition (EDE)And when they had come into the house, they saw the young child with Mary His mother, and bowed down and worshipped Him; and when they had opened their treasures, they presented gifts to Him: gold, frankincense, and myrrh.

Phonetic (Greek): kai chrematisthentes katʼ onar me anakampsai pros Ἡrῴden diʼ alles hodoy anechoresan eis ten choran ayton.

Edified Edition (EDE)Then, being warned by God in a dream that they should not return to Herod, they departed to their own country another way.

Edified Edition (EDE)Now when they had departed, behold, an angel of the Lord appeared to Joseph in a dream, saying, "Arise, take the young child and His mother, flee to Egypt, and stay there until I bring you word; for Herod will seek the young child to destroy Him."

Ἀναχωρησάντων δὲ αὐτῶν ἰδοὺ ἄγγελος κυρίου ⸂φαίνεται κατʼ ὄναρ⸃ τῷ Ἰωσὴφ λέγων· Ἐγερθεὶς παράλαβε τὸ παιδίον καὶ τὴν μητέρα αὐτοῦ καὶ φεῦγε εἰς Αἴγυπτον, καὶ ἴσθι ἐκεῖ ἕως ἂν εἴπω σοι· μέλλει γὰρ Ἡρῴδης ζητεῖν τὸ παιδίον τοῦ ἀπολέσαι αὐτό.

Phonetic (Greek): kai en ekei heos tes teleutes Ἡrῴdou· hina plerothῇ to ῥethen ⸀hypo kyriou dia toy prophetou legontos· Ἐx Aigyptou ekalesa ton yhion mou.

Edified Edition (EDE)and was there until the death of Herod, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the Lord through the prophet, saying, "Out of Egypt I called My Son."

Edified Edition (EDE)Then Herod, when he saw that he had been outwitted by the Wise Men, was furious; and he sent out and put to death all the male children who were in Bethlehem and in all its districts, from two years old and under, according to the time which he had determined from the Wise Men.

Τότε Ἡρῴδης ἰδὼν ὅτι ἐνεπαίχθη ὑπὸ τῶν μάγων ἐθυμώθη λίαν, καὶ ἀποστείλας ἀνεῖλεν πάντας τοὺς παῖδας τοὺς ἐν Βηθλέεμ καὶ ἐν πᾶσι τοῖς ὁρίοις αὐτῆς ἀπὸ διετοῦς καὶ κατωτέρω, κατὰ τὸν χρόνον ὃν ἠκρίβωσεν παρὰ τῶν μάγων.
