Matius 2:16

Ketika Herodes tahu bahwa para penafsir bintang itu sudah menipunya, dia sangat marah. Lalu dia memerintahkan tentaranya untuk membunuh semua anak laki-laki di kota Betlehem dan semua daerah sekitarnya, yaitu anak-anak yang berumur dua tahun ke bawah, sesuai keterangan dari para ahli itu.

¶ Then Herod, when he saw that he was mocked of the wise men, was exceeding wroth, and sent forth, and slew all the children that were in Bethlehem, and in all the coasts thereof, from two years old and under, according to the time which he had diligently enquired of the wise men.
