When you have found him, bring me word, so that I also may come and worship him." 9 They, having heard the king, went their way; and behold, the star, which they saw in the east, went before them, until it came and stood over where the young child was. 10 When they saw the star, they rejoiced with exceedingly great joy. 11 They came into the house and saw the young child with Mary, his mother, and they fell down and worshiped him.

    34 When the season for the fruit drew near, he sent his servants to the farmers, to receive his fruit.

    35 The farmers took his servants, beat one, killed another, and stoned another.

    36 Again, he sent other servants more than the first: and they treated them the same way.

    37 But afterward he sent to them his son, saying, 'They will respect my son.'

    38 But the farmers, when they saw the son, said among themselves, 'This is the heir. Come, let's kill him, and seize his inheritance.'

    39 So they took him, and threw him out of the vineyard, and killed him.
