Matthew 2

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,

Αφου δε εγεννηθη ο Ιησους εν Βηθλεεμ της Ιουδαιας επι των ημερων Ηρωδου του βασιλεως, ιδου, μαγοι απο ανατολων ηλθον εις Ιεροσολυμα, λεγοντες

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.

Που ειναι ο γεννηθεις βασιλευς των Ιουδαιων; διοτι ειδομεν τον αστερα αυτου εν τη ανατολη και ηλθομεν δια να προσκυνησωμεν αυτον.

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

Ακουσας δε Ηρωδης ο βασιλευς, εταραχθη και πασα η Ιεροσολυμα μετ αυτου,

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

και συναξας παντας τους αρχιερεις και γραμματεις του λαου, ηρωτα να μαθη παρ αυτων που ο Χριστος γενναται.

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

Εκεινοι δε ειπον προς αυτον Εν Βηθλεεμ της Ιουδαιας διοτι ουτως ειναι γεγραμμενον δια του προφητου

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.

Και συ, Βηθλεεμ, γη Ιουδα, δεν εισαι ουδολως ελαχιστη μεταξυ των ηγεμονων του Ιουδα διοτι εκ σου θελει εξελθει ηγουμενος, οστις θελει ποιμανει τον λαον μου τον Ισραηλ.

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

Τοτε ο Ηρωδης καλεσας κρυφιως τους μαγους εξηκριβωσε παρ αυτων τον καιρον του φαινομενου αστερος,

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.

και πεμψας αυτους εις Βηθλεεμ, ειπε Πορευθεντες ακριβως εξετασατε περι του παιδιου, αφου δε ευρητε, απαγγειλατε μοι, δια να ελθω και εγω να προσκυνησω αυτο.

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.

Εκεινοι δε ακουσαντες του βασιλεως ανεχωρησαν και ιδου, ο αστηρ τον οποιον ειδον εν τη ανατολη προεπορευετο αυτων, εωσου ελθων εσταθη επανω οπου ητο το παιδιον.

When they saw the star, they rejoiced with exceeding great joy.

Ιδοντες δε τον αστερα εχαρησαν χαραν μεγαλην σφοδρα,

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.

και ελθοντες εις την οικιαν ευρον το παιδιον μετα Μαριας της μητρος αυτου, και πεσοντες προσεκυνησαν αυτο, και ανοιξαντες τους θησαυρους αυτων προσεφεραν εις αυτο δωρα, χρυσον και λιβανον και σμυρναν

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

και αποκαλυφθεντες θεοθεν κατ οναρ να μη επιστρεψωσι προς τον Ηρωδην, δι αλλης οδου ανεχωρησαν εις την χωραν αυτων.

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.

Αφου δε αυτοι ανεχωρησαν, ιδου, αγγελος Κυριου φαινεται κατ οναρ εις τον Ιωσηφ, λεγων Εγερθεις παραλαβε το παιδιον και την μητερα αυτου και φευγε εις Αιγυπτον, και εσο εκει εωσου ειπω σοι διοτι μελλει ο Ηρωδης να ζητηση το παιδιον, δια να απολεση αυτο.

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

Ο δε εγερθεις παρελαβε το παιδιον και την μητερα αυτου δια νυκτος και ανεχωρησεν εις Αιγυπτον,

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.

και ητο εκει εως της τελευτης του Ηρωδου, δια να πληρωθη το ρηθεν υπο του Κυριου δια του προφητου λεγοντος Εξ Αιγυπτου εκαλεσα τον υιον μου.

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.

Τοτε ο Ηρωδης, ιδων οτι ενεπαιχθη υπο των μαγων, εθυμωθη σφοδρα και αποστειλας εφονευσε παντας τους παιδας τους εν Βηθλεεμ και εν πασι τοις οριοις αυτης απο δυο ετων και κατωτερω κατα τον καιρον, τον οποιον εξηκριβωσε παρα των μαγων.

Then was fulfilled that which was spoken by Jeremy the prophet, saying,

Τοτε επληρωθη το ρηθεν υπο Ιερεμιου του προφητου, λεγοντος

In Rama was there a voice heard, lamentation, and weeping, and great mourning, Rachel weeping for her children, and would not be comforted, because they are not.

Φωνη ηκουσθη εν Ραμα, θρηνος και κλαυθμος και οδυρμος πολυς η Ραχηλ εκλαιε τα τεκνα αυτης, και δεν ηθελε να παρηγορηθη, διοτι δεν υπαρχουσι.

But when Herod was dead, behold, an angel of the Lord appeareth in a dream to Joseph in Egypt,

Τελευτησαντος δε του Ηρωδου ιδου, αγγελος Κυριου φαινεται κατ οναρ εις τον Ιωσηφ εν Αιγυπτω,

Saying, Arise, and take the young child and his mother, and go into the land of Israel: for they are dead which sought the young child's life.

λεγων Εγερθεις παραλαβε το παιδιον και την μητερα αυτου και υπαγε εις γην Ισραηλ διοτι απεθανον οι ζητουντες την ψυχην του παιδιου.

And he arose, and took the young child and his mother, and came into the land of Israel.

Ο δε εγερθεις παρελαβε το παιδιον και την μητερα αυτου και ηλθεν εις γην Ισραηλ.

But when he heard that Archelaus did reign in Judaea in the room of his father Herod, he was afraid to go thither: notwithstanding, being warned of God in a dream, he turned aside into the parts of Galilee:

Ακουσας δε οτι ο Αρχελαος βασιλευει επι της Ιουδαιας αντι Ηρωδου του πατρος αυτου, εφοβηθη να υπαγη εκει αποκαλυφθεις δε θεοθεν κατ οναρ ανεχωρησεν εις τα μερη της Γαλιλαιας,

And he came and dwelt in a city called Nazareth: that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophets, He shall be called a Nazarene.

και ελθων κατωκησεν εις πολιν λεγομενην Ναζαρετ, δια να πληρωθη το ρηθεν δια των προφητων οτι Ναζωραιος θελει ονομασθη.
