Chapter 2

17Then what had been spoken through Jeremiah the prophet was fulfilled:
18'A VOICE WAS HEARD IN RAMAH, WEEPING AND GREAT MOURNING, RACHEL WEEPING FOR HER CHILDREN; AND SHE REFUSED TO BE COMFORTED, BECAUSE THEY WERE NO MORE.'
19But when Herod died, behold, an angel of the Lord *appeared in a dream to Joseph in Egypt, and said, 20Get up, take the Child and His mother, and go to the land of Israel; for those who sought the Child’s life are dead.' 21So Joseph got up, took the Child and His mother, and came into the land of Israel. 22But when he heard that Archelaus was reigning over Judea in place of his father Herod, he was afraid to go there. Then after being warned by God in a dream, he left for the regions of Galilee,

17Then was fulfilled that which was spoken by Jeremy the prophet, saying, 18In 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.
19But when Herod was dead, behold, an angel of the Lord appeareth in a dream to Joseph in Egypt, 20Saying, 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. 21And he arose, and took the young child and his mother, and came into the land of Israel. 22But 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:

Chapter 2

17Then what was spoken through Jeremiah the prophet was fulfilled:
18A voice was heard in Ramah, weeping, and great mourning, Rachel weeping for her children; and she refused to be consoled, because they are no more.
19After Herod died, an angel of the Lord appeared in a dream to Joseph in Egypt, 20saying, "Get up, take the child and his mother, and go to the land of Israel, because those who intended to kill the child are dead." 21So he got up, took the child and his mother, and entered the land of Israel. 22But when he heard that Archelaus was ruling over Judea in place of his father Herod, he was afraid to go there. And being warned in a dream, he withdrew to the region of Galilee.
New Living Translation

Chapter 2

17Herod’s brutal action fulfilled what God had spoken through the prophet Jeremiah:
18'A cry was heard in Ramah — weeping and great mourning. Rachel weeps for her children, refusing to be comforted, for they are dead.'
19When Herod died, an angel of the Lord appeared in a dream to Joseph in Egypt. 20Get up!' the angel said. 'Take the child and his mother back to the land of Israel, because those who were trying to kill the child are dead.'
21So Joseph got up and returned to the land of Israel with Jesus and his mother. 22But when he learned that the new ruler of Judea was Herod’s son Archelaus, he was afraid to go there. Then, after being warned in a dream, he left for the region of Galilee.
