Wziąwszy tedy rozkazanie od Boga we śnie, aby się nie wracali do Heroda, inszą drogą odeszli do ziemie swojej.
Lecz będąc upomnieni od Boga we śnie, aby się nie wracali do Heroda, inszą drogą wrócili się do krainy swojej.
12 A gdy zostali ostrzeżeni przez Boga we śnie, aby nie wracali do heroda, inną drogą wrócili do swojej krainy.
Ostrzeżeni zaś we śnie, aby nie wracać do Heroda, wrócili w swoje strony inną drogą.
Lecz otrzymali we śnie ostrzeżenie, aby nie wracać do Heroda; zatem inną drogą powrócili do swej krainy.
Lecz będąc upomnieni od Boga we śnie, aby się nie wracali do Heroda, inszą drogą wrócili się do krainy swojej.
Lecz będąc ostrzeżeni przez Boga we śnie, aby nie wracali do Heroda, powrócili do swojej ziemi inną drogą.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
Being warned of God in a dream,.... It is likely they made a short stay at Bethlehem, might lodge there a night; at least laid themselves down a while to take some refreshment in sleep, after they had paid their respects to him that was born king of the Jews, and performed the whole business they came about; when in a dream they received a divine oracle, were admonished and counselled by God,
that they should not return to Herod: which would have been going back again, and out of their way; there being a nearer one from Bethlehem to their own country, than to go by Jerusalem, though Herod had charged them to return to him. Whether they had promised him they would, is not certain; it is probable they might; however, they thought it most advisable to hearken to the divine oracle; wherefore,
they departed into their own country another way. What became of these persons afterwards, and whether they were spiritually and savingly enlightened into the knowledge of Christ; what a report they made of him when they came into their own country, and the success thereof, we have no account of, either in sacred or profane history.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
Warned of God - This was done, doubtless, because, if they had given Herod precise information where he was, it would have been easy for him to send forth and kill him. And from this we learn that God will watch over those whom He loves; that He knows how to foil the purposes of the wicked, and to deliver His own out of the hands of those who would destroy them.
In a dream - See the note at Matthew 1:20.
