Coverdale⁽ⁱ⁾ ³ When Herode ye kynge had herde thys, he was troubled, & all Ierusale with hym, ⁴ and he gathered all the hye Prestes and Scribes of ye people, & axed of them, where Christ shulde be borne. ⁵ And they sayde vnto hym: at Bethleem in Iury. For thus it is written by the Prophet: ⁶ And thou Bethleem in the londe of Iury, art not the leest amonge the Princes of Iuda. For out of ye shall come vnto me the captayne, that shall gouerne my people Israel. ⁷ Then Herod preuely called the wyse men, and dyligently enquyred of them, what tyme the starre appered, ⁸ and sent them to Bethleem, sainge: Go, and searche dyligently for the chylde. And when ye haue founde hym, bringe me worde agayne, that I maye come and worshippe hym also.
