Jesus having been born in Bethlehem of Judea in the days of Herod the king, behold, wise men from the east came into Jerusalem saying; Where is He that is born King of the Jews? for we have seen His star in the east, and have come to worship Him- And Herod the king having heard, was troubled, and all Jerusalem with him, read more.
and gathering together all the chief priests and scribes, inquired with them where Christ should be born. And they said unto him, In Bethlehem of Judea; for thus it has been written by the prophet; And thou, Bethlehem, the land of Judea, art by no means the least among the princes of Judah; for out of thee shall come a leader, who will shepherd my people, Israel. Then Herod secretly calling the wise men, inquired with them the time of the appearing of the star, and sending them to Bethlehem he said; Having gone search diligently for the young child; and when you may find Him, notify me, in order that I, having gone, may worship Him also. And hearing the king they departed, and, behold, the star which they saw in the east went before them, until having come, it stood above where the young child was. And seeing the star they rejoiced with exceedingly great joy. And having come into the house they saw the young child with Mary His mother, and having fallen down they worshiped Him, and opening their treasures they offered Him gifts, gold and frankincense and myrrh.
