Herod, they departed into their own country another way.

13 Now when they were departed, behold, an 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 tell thee: for Herod will seek the young child to destroy him. 14 And he arose and 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 by the Lord through the prophet, saying, 1Out of Egypt did I call

13 Depois de haverem partido, eis que um anjo do Senhor appareceu em sonhos a José, dizendo: Levanta-te, toma comtigo o menino e sua mãe, e foge para o Egypto, e fica alli até que eu te chame; pois Herodes ha de procurar o menino para o matar. 14 José levantou-se, tomou de noite o menino e sua mãe e partiu para o Egypto, 15 e alli ficou até a morte de Herodes; para que se cumprisse o que dissera o Senhor pelo propheta: Do Egypto chamei a meu Filho.

16 Herodes, vendo-se illudido pelos magos, ficou muito irado e mandou matar todos os meninos que havia em Bethleem e em todo o seu termo, de dois annos para baixo, conforme o tempo que tinha com precisão indagado dos magos. 17 Então se cumpriu o que foi dito pelo propheta Jeremias:

Choro e grande lamento;

filhos,

16 Then Herod, when he saw that he was mocked of the 2 Wisemen, was exceeding wroth, and sent forth, and slew all the male children that were in Bethlehem, and in all the borders thereof, from two years old and under, according to the time which he had exactly learned of the 2 Wisemen. 17 Then was fulfilled that which was spoken through Jeremiah the prophet, saying, 18 3A voice was heard in Ramah, Weeping and great mourning,

Rachel weeping for her children;

And she would not be comforted, because they are not.

Make his paths straight. 4 Now John himself had his raiment of camel's hair, and a leathern girdle about his loins; and his food was locusts and wild honey. 5 Then went out unto him Jerusalem, and all Judæa, and all the region round about the Jordan; 6 and they were baptized of him in the river Jordan, confessing their sins. 7 But when he saw many of the Pharisees and Sadducees coming 3 to his baptism, he said unto them, Ye offspring of vipers, who warned you to flee from the wrath to come? 8 Bring forth therefore fruit worthy of 4 repentance: 9 and think not to say within yourselves, We have Abraham to our father: for I say unto you, that God is able of these stones to raise up children unto Abraham. 10 And even now the axe lieth at the root of

13 Depois veiu Jesus da Galiléa ao Jordão ter com João, para ser baptizado por elle. 14 Mas João objectava-lhe: Eu é que preciso ser baptizado por ti, e tu vens a mim? 15 Respondeulhe Jesus: Deixa por agora; porque assim nos convem cumprir toda a justiça. Então elle annuiu. 16 E baptizado que foi Jesus, sahiu logo da agua; e eis que se abriram os céos, e viu o Espirito de Deus descer como pomba e vir sobre elle; 17 e uma voz dos céos disse: Este é o meu Filho dilecto, em quem me agrado.

13 Then cometh Jesus from Galilee to the Jordan unto John, to be baptized of him. 14 But John would have hindered him, saying, I have need to be baptized of thee, and comest thou to me? 15 But Jesus answering said unto him, Suffer 3 it now: for thus it becometh us to fulfil all righteousness. Then he suffereth him. 16 And Jesus, when he was baptized, went up straightway from the water: and lo, the heavens were opened 4 unto him, and he saw the Spirit of God descending as a dove, and coming upon him; 17 and lo, a voice out of the heavens, saying, "This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.

Então foi levado Jesus pe 4 lo Espirito ao deserto, para ser tentado pelo Diabo. 2 E depois de jejuar quarenta dias e quarenta noites, teve fome. 3 Chegando o tentador, disse-lhe: Se és Filho de Deus, manda que estas pedras se tornem em pães. 4 Mas Jesus respondeu: Está escripto: Não só de pão viverá o homem, mas de toda a palavra que sae da bocca de Deus. 5 Então o Diabo o levou á cidade santa, e o collocou sobre o pina-mouth of God.
