Matthew 2:2-9

Worsley(i) 2 saying, Where is the king of the Jews that is born here? for we have seen his star in the east and are come to worship Him. 3 And when Herod the king heard it, he was troubled, and all Jerusalem with him: 4 and having summoned together all the chief priests and scribes of the people, he enquired of them where the Messiah was to be born: and they told him, at Bethlehem in Judea; 5 for thus it is written by the prophet, 6 "And thou Bethlehem in the land of Juda art not the meanest among the cities of the princes of Juda; for out of thee shall come forth a ruler, that shall feed my people Israel." 7 Then Herod called the wise men to him privately, and inquired of them exactly the time of the star's appearing: 8 and sending them to Bethlehem, he said, Go and make diligent search for the child, and when ye have found Him, let me know, that I also may come and worship Him. 9 When they had heard the king, they went: and lo, the star, which they saw in the east, went on before them, till it came and stood over the place where the child was.
