Matthew 2:2-9

We saw His star when it rose and have come to worship Him." 3 Now when King Herod heard of it, he was disturbed, and all Jerusalem with him. 4 So he called together all the high priests and scribes of the people, and anxiously asked them where the Christ was to be born. 5 They told him, "At Bethlehem in Judea, for this is what the prophet wrote: 6 'And you, Bethlehem in Judah's land, You are not at all the least among the leading places of Judah, for out of you will come a ruler, who will shepherd my people Israel.'" 7 Then Herod secretly sent for the stargazers, and found out from them exactly the time the star appeared. 8 So he sent them to Bethlehem with this order, "Go and carefully search for the child, and when you find Him, bring back word to me, and I too may come and do Him homage." 9 After listening to the king, they started on their journey, and the star which they had seen rise led them on until it came and stopped over the place where the child was.
