You put me into the dust of death.

When King Herod heard this, he was deeply disturbed, and all Jerusalem with him.So he assembled all the chief priests and scribes of the people and asked them where the Messiah would be born.“ In Bethlehem of Judea,” they told him,“ because this is what was written by the prophet:And you, Bethlehem, in the land of Judah, are by no means least among the rulers of Judah: Because out of you will come a ruler who will shepherd my people Israel.”Then Herod secretly summoned the wise men and asked them the exact time the star appeared.He sent them to Bethlehem and said,“ Go and search carefully for the child. When you find him, report back to me so that I too can go and worship him.”After hearing the king, they went on their way. And there it was— the star they had seen at its rising. It led them until it came and stopped above the place where the child was.When they saw the star, they were overwhelmed with joy.Entering the house, they saw the child with Mary his mother, and falling to their knees, they worshiped him. Then they opened their treasures and presented him with gifts: gold, frankincense, and myrrh.And being warned in a dream not to go back to Herod, they returned to their own country by another route.After they were gone, an angel of the Lord appeared to Joseph in a dream, saying,“ Get up! Take the child and his mother, flee to Egypt, and stay there until I tell you. For Herod is about to search for the child to kill him.”
