40:001:025 And knew her not till she had brought forth her firstborn son: 
           and he called his name Jesus.

40:002:001 Now when Jesus was born in Bethlehem of Judaea in the days of
           Herod the king, behold, there came wise men from the east to
           Jerusalem,

40:002:002 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.

40:002:003 When Herod the king had heard these things, he was troubled,
           and all Jerusalem with him.

40:002:004 And when he had gathered all the chief priests and scribes of
           the people together, he demanded of them where Christ should
           be born.

40:002:005 And they said unto him, In Bethlehem of Judaea:  for thus it is
           written by the prophet,

40:002:006 And thou Bethlehem, in the land of Juda, art not the least
           among the princes of Juda:  for out of thee shall come a
           Governor, that shall rule my people Israel.

40:002:007 Then Herod, when he had privily called the wise men, enquired
           of them diligently what time the star appeared.

40:002:008 And he sent them to Bethlehem, and said, Go and search
           diligently for the young child; and when ye have found him,
           bring me word again, that I may come and worship him also.

40:002:009 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 where the young child was.

40:002:010 When they saw the star, they rejoiced with exceeding great
           joy.

40:002:011 And when they were come into the house, they saw the young
           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.

40:002:012 And being warned of God in a dream that they should not return
           to Herod, they departed into their own country another way.

40:002:013 And when they were departed, behold, the angel of the Lord
           appeareth 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 bring thee word:  for Herod will seek the young
           child to destroy him.

40:002:014 When he arose, he took the young child and his mother by
           night, and departed into Egypt: 

40:002:015 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.
