18 This is how Jesus the Messiah was born. His mother, Mary, was engaged to be married to Joseph. But before the marriage took place, while she was still a virgin, she became pregnant through the power of the Holy Spirit.

Matt 1:20

As he considered this, an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream. “Joseph, son of David,” the angel said, “do not be afraid to take Mary as your wife. For the child within her was conceived by the Holy Spirit.

Matt 1:22

All of this occurred to fulfill the Lord’s message through his prophet:

Matt 1:24

When Joseph woke up, he did as the angel of the Lord commanded and took Mary as his wife.

Matt 2:1

1 Jesus was born in Bethlehem in Judea, during the reign of King Herod. About that time some wise men from eastern lands arrived in Jerusalem, asking,

Matt 2:2

“Where is the newborn king of the Jews? We saw his star as it rose, and we have come to worship him.”

Matt 2:4

He called a meeting of the leading priests and teachers of religious law and asked, “Where is the Messiah supposed to be born?”

Matt 2:6

‘And you, O Bethlehem in the land of Judah, are not least among the ruling cities of Judah, for a ruler will come from you who will be the shepherd for my people Israel.’”

Matt 2:9

After this interview the wise men went their way. And the star they had seen in the east guided them to Bethlehem. It went ahead of them and stopped over the place where the child was.

Matt 2:11

They entered the house and saw the child with his mother, Mary, and they bowed down and worshiped him. Then they opened their treasure chests and gave him gifts of gold, frankincense, and myrrh.

Matt 2:13

13 After the wise men were gone, an angel of the Lord appeared to Joseph in a dream. “Get up! Flee to Egypt with the child and his mother,” the angel said. “Stay there until I tell you to return, because Herod is going to search for the child to kill him.”

Matt 2:15

and they stayed there until Herod’s death. This fulfilled what the Lord had spoken through the prophet: “I called my Son out of Egypt.”

Matt 2:16

Herod was furious when he realized that the wise men had outwitted him. He sent soldiers to kill all the boys in and around Bethlehem who were two years old and under, based on the wise men’s report of the star’s first appearance.

Matt 2:19

19 When Herod died, an angel of the Lord appeared in a dream to Joseph in Egypt.

Matt 2:20

“Get 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.”

Matt 2:21

So Joseph got up and returned to the land of Israel with Jesus and his mother.

Matt 2:22

But 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.

Matt 3:2

“Repent of your sins and turn to God, for the Kingdom of Heaven is near.”

Matt 3:5

People from Jerusalem and from all of Judea and all over the Jordan Valley went out to see and hear John.

Matt 3:7

But when he saw many Pharisees and Sadducees coming to watch him baptize, he denounced them. “You brood of snakes!” he exclaimed. “Who warned you to flee the coming wrath?

Matt 3:8

Prove by the way you live that you have repented of your sins and turned to God.

Matt 3:9

Don’t just say to each other, ‘We’re safe, for we are descendants of Abraham.’ That means nothing, for I tell you, God can create children of Abraham from these very stones.

Matt 3:10

Even now the ax of God’s judgment is poised, ready to sever the roots of the trees. Yes, every tree that does not produce good fruit will be chopped down and thrown into the fire.

Matt 3:11

“I baptize with water those who repent of their sins and turn to God. But someone is coming soon who is greater than I am — so much greater that I’m not worthy even to be his slave and carry his sandals. He will baptize you with the Holy Spirit and with fire.

Matt 3:14

But John tried to talk him out of it. “I am the one who needs to be baptized by you,” he said, “so why are you coming to me?”

Matt 3:16

After his baptism, as Jesus came up out of the water, the heavens were opened and he saw the Spirit of God descending like a dove and settling on him.

Matt 4:3

During that time the devil came and said to him, “If you are the Son of God, tell these stones to become loaves of bread.”

Matt 4:4

But Jesus told him, “No! The Scriptures say, ‘People do not live by bread alone, but by every word that comes from the mouth of God.’”

Matt 4:5

Then the devil took him to the holy city, Jerusalem, to the highest point of the Temple,

Matt 4:6

and said, “If you are the Son of God, jump off! For the Scriptures say, ‘He will order his angels to protect you. And they will hold you up with their hands so you won’t even hurt your foot on a stone.’”

Matt 4:8

Next the devil took him to the peak of a very high mountain and showed him all the kingdoms of the world and their glory.

Matt 4:10

“Get out of here, Satan,” Jesus told him. “For the Scriptures say, ‘You must worship the Lord your God and serve only him.’”

Matt 4:11

Then the devil went away, and angels came and took care of Jesus.

Matt 4:13

He went first to Nazareth, then left there and moved to Capernaum, beside the Sea of Galilee, in the region of Zebulun and Naphtali.
