17 Then was that fulfilled which is spoken by the Prophet Ieremias, saying, 18 In Rhama was a voyce heard, mourning, and weeping, and great howling: Rachel weeping for her children, and would not be comforted, because they were not. 19 And whe Herod was dead, behold, an Angel of the Lorde appeareth in a dreame to Ioseph in Egypt, 20 Saying, Arise, and take the babe and his mother, and goe into the land of Israel: for they are dead which sought the babes life. 21 Then he arose vp and tooke the babe and his mother, and came into the land of Israel. 22 But whe he heard that Archelaus did reigne in Iudea in stead of his father Herod, he was afraide to go thither: yet after he was warned of God in a dreame, he turned aside into the parts of Galile, 23 And went and dwelt in a citie called Nazareth, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the Prophets, which was, That hee should be called a Nazarite.
