Matthew 2:17-18

EasyEnglish Bible

¹⁷In this way, these words that God's prophet Jeremiah spoke long ago became true:^[a]

¹⁸‘People heard a sad noise in Ramah.
    Someone is weeping with a loud voice.
It is Rachel and she is weeping for her children.
    Nobody can help her to stop weeping,
    because her children are dead.’
