Матай 2
Священное Писание (Восточный Перевод)
Восточные мудрецы
2 Иса родился в иудейском городе Вифлееме во времена правления царя Ирода[a]. После рождения Исы в Иерусалим пришли мудрецы с востока[b].
Они спрашивали людей:
2 – Где новорождённый Царь иудеев? Мы видели Его звезду на востоке[c] и пришли поклониться Ему.
3 Услышав об этом, царь Ирод встревожился, а с ним и весь Иерусалим. 4 Царь созвал к себе всех главных священнослужителей и учителей Таурата и спросил их, где должен родиться обещанный Масих.
5 – В иудейском Вифлееме, – ответили ему, – потому что так написано у пророка:
6 «И ты, Вифлеем в земле Иудеи,
ты вовсе не наименьший среди главных городов Иудеи,
потому что из тебя произойдёт Правитель,
Который будет пасти народ Мой, Исраил!»[d]
7 Тогда Ирод тайно пригласил к себе мудрецов и узнал у них точное время появления звезды. 8 Он послал их в Вифлеем с наказом:
– Идите и тщательно всё разузнайте о младенце. Когда вы Его найдёте, известите и меня, чтобы я смог пойти и поклониться Ему.
9 Выслушав наказ царя, мудрецы отправились в путь. Звезда, которую они видели на востоке,[e] шла впереди них, пока наконец не остановилась над местом, где был младенец. 10 Увидев звезду, мудрецы очень сильно обрадовались. 11 Когда они вошли в дом и увидели младенца и Его мать Марьям, они, павши, поклонились Ему и, открыв свои сокровища, поднесли Ему подарки: золото, ладан[f] и смирну[g]. 12 Ночью во сне они были предупреждены о том, что им нельзя возвращаться к Ироду, и вернулись в свою страну другим путём.
Бегство в Египет
13 Когда мудрецы ушли, Юсуфу во сне явился ангел от Вечного и сказал:
– Вставай, возьми младенца и Его мать и беги с ними в Египет. Оставайтесь там, пока я не скажу, потому что Ирод собирается найти младенца и убить Его.
14 Юсуф взял младенца с Его матерью, и ночью они ушли в Египет. 15 Там они оставались до тех пор, пока Ирод не умер. Так исполнились слова, которые Вечный сказал (об Исраиле) через пророка: «Из Египта призвал Я Сына Моего»[h].
16 Когда Ирод понял, что мудрецы его обманули, он пришёл в ярость и приказал убить в Вифлееме и его окрестностях всех мальчиков в возрасте до двух лет. Время рождения ребёнка он определил со слов мудрецов. 17 Таким образом исполнилось предсказанное через пророка Иеремию:
18 «Голос слышен в Раме,
вопль и горькое рыдание, –
это Рахиля плачет о детях своих
и не находит утешения,
потому что их больше нет!»[i]
Возвращение в Назарет
19 После смерти Ирода Юсуфу в Египте явился во сне ангел от Вечного.
20 – Вставай, – сказал он, – возьми младенца и Его мать и возвращайтесь в Исраил. Тех, кто хотел убить мальчика, уже нет в живых.
21 Юсуф взял младенца и Его мать, и они отправились в землю Исраила. 22 Когда Юсуф узнал, что в Иудее вместо Ирода царствует его сын Архелай, он побоялся возвращаться, но, получив во сне ещё одно указание, пошёл в Галилею 23 и поселился там в городе Назарете. Так исполнились слова пророков, что Масиха будут называть назарянином.[j]

Matthew 2
King James Version
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,
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 these things, he was troubled, and all Jerusalem with him.
4 And when he had gathered all the chief priests and scribes of the people together, he demanded of them where Christ should be born.
5 And they said unto him, In Bethlehem of Judaea: for thus it is written by the prophet,
6 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.
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, 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.
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 where the young child was.
10 When they saw the star, they rejoiced with exceeding great joy.
11 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.
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 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.
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 inquired of the wise men.
17 Then was fulfilled that which was spoken by Jeremiah the prophet, saying,
18 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.
19 But when Herod was dead, behold, an angel of the Lord appeareth in a dream to Joseph in Egypt,
20 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.
21 And he arose, and took the young child and his mother, and came into the land of Israel.
22 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:
23 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.
Matthew 2
New King James Version
Wise Men from the East
2 Now after (A)Jesus was born in Bethlehem of Judea in the days of Herod the king, behold, [a]wise men (B)from the East came to Jerusalem, 2 saying, (C)“Where is He who has been born King of the Jews? For we have seen (D)His star in the East and have come to worship Him.”
3 When Herod the king heard this, he was troubled, and all Jerusalem with him. 4 And when he had gathered all (E)the chief priests and (F)scribes of the people together, (G)he inquired of them where the Christ was to be born.
5 So they said to him, “In Bethlehem of Judea, for thus it is written by the prophet:
6 ‘But(H) you, Bethlehem, in the land of Judah,
Are not the least among the rulers of Judah;
For out of you shall come a Ruler
(I)Who will shepherd My people Israel.’ ”
7 Then Herod, when he had secretly called the [b]wise men, determined from them what time the (J)star appeared. 8 And he sent them to Bethlehem and said, “Go and search carefully for the young Child, and when you have found Him, bring back word to me, that I may come and worship Him also.”
9 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. 10 When they saw the star, they rejoiced with exceedingly great joy. 11 And when they had come into the house, they saw the young Child with Mary His mother, and fell down and worshiped Him. And when they had opened their treasures, (K)they presented gifts to Him: gold, frankincense, and myrrh.
12 Then, being divinely warned (L)in a dream that they should not return to Herod, they departed for their own country another way.
The Flight into Egypt
13 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.”
14 When he arose, he took the young Child and His mother by night and departed for Egypt, 15 and was there until the death of Herod, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the Lord through the prophet, saying, (M)“Out of Egypt I called My Son.”
Massacre of the Innocents
16 Then Herod, when he saw that he was deceived by the wise men, was exceedingly angry; and he sent forth 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. 17 Then was fulfilled what was spoken by Jeremiah the prophet, saying:
18 “A (N)voice was heard in Ramah,
Lamentation, weeping, and great mourning,
Rachel weeping for her children,
Refusing to be comforted,
Because they are no more.”
The Home in Nazareth(O)
19 Now when Herod was dead, behold, an angel of the Lord appeared in a dream to Joseph in Egypt, 20 (P)saying, “Arise, take the young Child and His mother, and go to the land of Israel, for those who (Q)sought the young Child’s life are dead.” 21 Then he arose, took the young Child and His mother, and came into the land of Israel.
22 But when he heard that Archelaus was reigning over Judea instead of his father Herod, he was afraid to go there. And being warned by God in a (R)dream, he turned aside (S)into the region of Galilee. 23 And he came and dwelt in a city called (T)Nazareth, that it might be fulfilled (U)which was spoken by the prophets, “He shall be called a Nazarene.”
