12 But the light gradually
decreased, until the infant appeared,
and sucked the breast of his mother,
Mary.
13 Then the midwife cried out,
and said, How glorious a day is
this, wherein mine eyes have seen
this extraordinary sight!
14 And the midwife went out
from the cave, and Salome met
her.
15 And the midwife said to her,
Salome, Salome, I will tell you a
most surprising thing which I saw,
16 A virgin hath brought forth,
which is a thing contrary to
nature.
17 To which Salome replied, As
the Lord my God liveth unless I
receive particular proof of this
matter, I will not believe that a
virgin hath brought forth.
18 If Then Salome went in, and
the midwife said, Mary, shew thyself,
for a controversy is risen
concerning thee.
19 And Salome received satisfaction.
20 But her hand was withered,
and she groaned bitterly;
21 And said, Woe to me, because
of mine iniquity; for I have
tempted the living God, and my
hand is ready to drop off.
22 Then Salome made her
supplication to the Lord, and said,
O God of my Fathers, remember me,
for I am of the seed of Abraham,
and Isaac, and Jacob.
23 Make me not a reproach
among the children of Israel, but
restore me sound to my parents.
24 For thou well knowest,
O Lord, that I have performed many
offices of charity in thy name,
and have received my reward from
thee.
25 Upon this an angel of the
Lord stood by Salome, and said,
The Lord God hath heard thy
prayer, reach forth thy hand to
the child, and carry him, and by
that means thou shalt be restored.
26 Salome filled with exceeding
joy, went to the child, and said,
I will touch him.
27 And she purposed to worship
him, for she said, This is a great
king, which is born in Israel.
28 And straightway Salome was
cured.
29 Then the midwife went out
of the cave, being approved by God.
30 And lo! a voice came to Salome.
Declare not the strange things
which thou hast seen, till
the child shall come to Jerusalem.
31 So Salome also departed,
approved by God.
CHAPTER XV.
1 Wise men come from the east.
3 Herod alarmed;
8 desires them if they find the child to bring him word.
10 They visit the cave and offer the child their treasure,
11 and being warned in a dream, do not return to Herod,
but go home another way.
THEN Joseph was preparing to
go away, because there arose
a great disorder in Bethlehem by
the coming of some wise men
from the east,
2 Who said, Where is the King
of the Jews born? For we have
seen his star in the east, and are
come to worship him.
3 When Herod heard this, he
was exceedingly troubled, and sent
messengers to the wise men, and
to the priests, and enquired of
them in the town-hall,
4 And said unto them, Where
have you it written concerning
Christ the king, or where should
he be born?
5 Then they say unto him, In
Bethlehem of Judaea; for thus it
is written: And thou Bethlehem in
the land of Judah, art not the least
among the princes of Judah, for
out of thee shall come a ruler,
