"Where is he who is born King of the Jews? For we saw his star in the east, and have come to worship him."

Then Herod secretly called the wise men, and learned from them exactly what time the star appeared.

And they, having heard the king, went their way; and suddenly the star which they saw in the east went before them, until it came and stood over where the young child was.

And when they saw the star, they rejoiced with exceedingly great joy.

Now when they had departed, suddenly an angel of the Lord appeared to Joseph in a dream, saying, "Arise and take the young child and his mother, and flee into Egypt, and stay there until I tell you, for Herod will seek the young child to destroy him."

And into whatever city or village you enter, find out who in it is worthy; and stay there until you go on.

Then he said to them, "My soul is exceedingly sorrowful, even to death. Stay here, and watch with me."
