Matthew 2

DOUAI-RHEIMS	NOVA VULGATA
1 When Jesus therefore was born in Bethlehem of Juda, in the days of king Herod, behold, there came wise men from the east to Jerusalem.	1 Cum autem natus esset Iesus in Bethlehem Iudaeae in diebus Herodis regis,ecce Magi ab oriente venerunt Hierosolymam
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 adore him.	2 dicentes: “ Ubi est, qui natusest, rex Iudaeorum? Vidimus enim stellam eius in oriente et venimus adorare eum”.
3 And king Herod hearing this, was troubled, and all Jerusalem with him.	3 Audiens autem Herodes rex turbatus est et omnis Hierosolyma cum illo;
4 And assembling together all the chief priests and the scribes of the people, he inquired of them where Christ should be born.	4 et congregans omnes principes sacerdotum et scribas populi, sciscitabatur ab eisubi Christus nasceretur.
5 But they said to him: In Bethlehem of Juda. For so it is written by the prophet:	5 At illi dixerunt ei: “ In Bethlehem Iudaeae. Sicenim scriptum est per prophetam:
6 And thou Bethlehem the land of Juda art not the least among the princes of Juda: for out of thee shall come forth the captain that shall rule my people Israel.	6 "Et tu, Bethlehem terra Iudae, nequaquam minima es in principibus Iudae; ex te enim exiet dux, qui reget populum meum Israel" ”.
7 Then Herod, privately calling the wise men, learned diligently of them the time of the star which appeared to them;	7 Tunc Herodes, clam vocatis Magis, diligenter didicit ab eis tempus stellae,quae apparuit eis;
8 And sending them into Bethlehem, said: Go and diligently inquire after the child, and when you have found him, bring me word again, that I also may come to adore him.	8 et mittens illos in Bethlehem dixit: “ Ite et interrogatediligenter de puero; et cum inveneritis, renuntiate mihi, ut et ego veniensadorem eum ”.
9 Who having heard the king, went their way; and behold the star which they had seen in the east, went before them, until it came and stood over where the child was.	9 Qui cum audissent regem, abierunt. Et ecce stella, quam viderant in oriente,antecedebat eos, usque dum veniens staret supra, ubi erat puer.
10 And seeing the star they rejoiced with exceeding great joy.	10 Videntesautem stellam gavisi sunt gaudio magno valde.
11 And entering into the house, they found the child with Mary his mother, and falling down they adored him; and opening their treasures, they offered him gifts; gold, frankincense, and myrrh.	11 Et intrantes domum videruntpuerum cum Maria matre eius, et procidentes adoraverunt eum; et apertisthesauris suis, obtulerunt ei munera, aurum et tus et myrrham.
12 And having received an answer in sleep that they should not return to Herod, they went back another way into their country.	12 Et responsoaccepto in somnis, ne redirent ad Herodem, per aliam viam reversi sunt inregionem suam.
13 And after they were departed, behold an angel of the Lord appeared in sleep to Joseph, saying: Arise, and take the child and his mother, and fly into Egypt: and be there until I shall tell thee. For it will come to pass that Herod will seek the child to destroy him.	13 Qui cum recessissent, ecce angelus Domini apparet in somnis Ioseph dicens:“ Surge et accipe puerum et matrem eius et fuge in Aegyptum et esto ibi, usquedum dicam tibi; futurum est enim ut Herodes quaerat puerum ad perdendum eum ”.
14 Who arose, and took the child and his mother by night, and retired into Egypt: and he was there until the death of Herod:	14 Qui consurgens accepit puerum et matrem eius nocte et recessit in Aegyptum
15 That it might be fulfilled which the Lord spoke by the prophet, saying: Out of Egypt have I called my son.	15 et erat ibi usque ad obitum Herodis, ut adimpleretur, quod dictum est a Dominoper prophetam dicentem: “ Ex Aegypto vocavi filium meum ”.
16 Then Herod perceiving that he was deluded by the wise men, was exceeding angry; and sending killed all the men children that were in Bethlehem, and in all the borders thereof, from two years old and under, according to the time which he had diligently inquired of the wise men.	16 Tunc Herodes videns quoniam illusus esset a Magis, iratus est valde etmittens occidit omnes pueros, qui erant in Bethlehem et in omnibus finibus eius,a bimatu et infra, secundum tempus, quod exquisierat a Magis.
17 Then was fulfilled that which was spoken by Jeremias the prophet, saying:	17 Tunc adimpletumest, quod dictum est per Ieremiam prophetam dicentem:
18 A voice in Rama was heard, lamentation and great mourning; Rachel bewailing her children, and would not be comforted, because they are not.	18 “ Vox in Rama audita est, ploratus et ululatus multus: Rachel plorans filios suos, et noluit consolari, quia non sunt ”.
19 But when Herod was dead, behold an angel of the Lord appeared in sleep to Joseph in Egypt,	19 Defuncto autem Herode, ecce apparet angelus Domini in somnis Ioseph inAegypto
20 Saying: Arise, and take the child and his mother, and go into the land of Israel. For they are dead that sought the life of the child.	20 dicens: “ Surge et accipe puerum et matrem eius et vade in terramIsrael; defuncti sunt enim, qui quaerebant animam pueri ”.
21 Who arose, and took the child and his mother, and came into the land of Israel.	21 Qui surgensaccepit puerum et matrem eius et venit in terram Israel.
22 But hearing that Archelaus reigned in Judea in the room of Herod his father, he was afraid to go thither: and being warned in sleep retired into the quarters of Galilee.	22 Audiens autem quia Archelaus regnaret in Iudaea pro Herode patre suo, timuitilluc ire; et admonitus in somnis, secessit in partes Galilaeae
23 And coming he dwelt in a city called Nazareth: that it might be fulfilled which was said by prophets: That he shall be called a Nazarene.	23 et venienshabitavit in civitate, quae vocatur Nazareth, ut adimpleretur, quod dictum estper Prophetas: “ Nazaraeus vocabitur ”.
