The Flight to Egypt
13 Now when they had departed, behold, an (A)angel of the [a]Lord *(B)appeared to Joseph in a dream, saying, “Get up! Take the Child and His mother and flee to Egypt, and remain there until I tell you; for Herod is going to search for the Child to destroy Him.”
14 So [b]Joseph got up and took the Child and His mother while it was still night, and departed for Egypt. 15 And he [c]remained there until the death of Herod, in order that what had been spoken by the [d]Lord through the prophet would be fulfilled, saying, “(C)Out of Egypt I called (D)My Son.”

The Escape to Egypt
13 When they had gone, an angel(A) of the Lord appeared to Joseph in a dream.(B) “Get up,” he said, “take the child and his mother and escape to Egypt. Stay there until I tell you, for Herod is going to search for the child to kill him.”(C)
14 So he got up, took the child and his mother during the night and left for Egypt, 15 where he stayed until the death of Herod. And so was fulfilled(D) what the Lord had said through the prophet: “Out of Egypt I called my son.”[a](E)
