<t /><p class="bodytext">After Herod<n id="1" /> had died, an<n id="2" /> angel of the Lord<n id="3" /> appeared in a dream to Joseph in Egypt

When Joseph awoke from sleep he did what the angel of the Lord<n id="1" /> told him. He took his wife,

Suddenly there was a severe earthquake, for an angel of the Lord<n id="1" /> descending from heaven came and rolled away the stone and sat on it.

But the angel said<n id="1" /> to the women, &#8220;Do not be afraid; I know<n id="2" /> that you are looking for Jesus, who was crucified.<n id="3" />

When he had contemplated this, an<n id="1" /> angel of the Lord<n id="2" /> appeared to him in a dream and said, &#8220;Joseph, son of David, do not be afraid to take Mary as your wife, because the child conceived in her is from the Holy Spirit.

<t /><p class="bodytext">After they had gone, an<n id="1" /> angel of the Lord<n id="2" /> appeared to Joseph in a dream and said, &#8220;Get up, take the child and his mother and flee to Egypt, and stay there until I tell you, for Herod<n id="3" /> is going to look for the child to kill him.&#8221;
