    1 After Jesus was born in Bethlehem of Judea during the reign of King Herod, magi from the east arrived in Jerusalem.

    2 They asked, 'Where is the newborn King of the Jews? For we saw His star in the east and have come to worship Him.'

    3 When King Herod heard this, he was deeply troubled, and all Jerusalem with him.

    4 He called together all the chief priests and scribes of the people and asked them where the Christ was to be born.

    5 They replied, 'In Bethlehem of Judea, because this is what was written by the prophet:

    6 'And you, Bethlehem, in the land of Judah, are by no means least among the rulers of Judah; for from you will come a ruler who will shepherd My people Israel.'

    7 Then Herod secretly called the magi and found out from them the exact time the star had appeared.

    8 He sent them to Bethlehem and said, 'Go and search carefully for the child. When you find Him, report back to me so that I too may go and worship Him.'

    9 After they had heard the king, they went on their way, and behold, the star they had seen in the east went ahead of them until it stopped over the place where the child was.

    10 When they saw the star, they were overjoyed with great emotion.
