Matthew 2:2-12

2askingG3004, “WhereG4226 isG1510 theG3588 One who has been bornG5088 KingG935 of theG3588 JewsG2453? We sawG3708 HisG846 starG792 inG1722 theG3588 eastG3951 andG2532 have comeG2064 to worshipG4352 HimG846.”

3WhenG1161 KingG935 HerodG2264 heardG191 this, he was disturbedG5015, andG2532 allG3956 JerusalemG2414 withG3326 himG846. 4AndG2532 when he had assembledG4863 allG3956 theG3588 chief priestsG749 andG2532 scribesG1122 of theG3588 peopleG2992, he askedG4441G3844 themG846 whereG4226 theG3588 ChristG5547 was to be bornG1080.

5“InG1722 BethlehemG965 in JudeaG2449,” they repliedG2036G846, “forG1063 this is whatG3779 theG3588 prophetG4396 has writtenG1125:

7ThenG5119 HerodG2264 calledG2564 theG3588 MagiG3097 secretlyG2977 and learnedG198 fromG3844 themG846 theG3588 exact timeG5550 theG3588 starG792 had appearedG5316. 8AndG2532 sendingG3992 themG846 toG1519 BethlehemG965, he saidG2036: “GoG4198 and searchG1833 carefullyG199 forG4012 theG3588 ChildG3813, andG1161 whenG1875 you findG2147 Him, reportG518 to meG1473, so thatG3704 I tooG2504 may goG2064 and worshipG4352 HimG846.”

AfterG1161 they had heardG191 theG3588 kingG935, they went on their wayG4198, andG2532 theG3588 starG792 they had seenG3708 inG1722 theG3588 eastG395 went ahead ofG4254 themG846 untilG2193 it stoodG2064G2476 overG1883 the place whereG3757 theG3588 ChildG3813 wasG1510. 10WhenG1161 they sawG3708 theG3588 starG792, they rejoicedG5463 with great delightG4970G3173G5479. 11On comingG2064 toG1519 theG3588 houseG3614, they sawG3708 theG3588 ChildG3813 withG3326 HisG846 motherG3384 MaryG3137, andG2532 they fell downG4098 and worshipedG4352 HimG846. ThenG2532 they openedG455 theirG846 treasuresG2344 and presentedG4374 HimG846 with giftsG1435 of goldG5557 andG2532 frankincenseG3030 andG2532 myrrhG4666.

12AndG2532 having been warnedG5537 inG2596 a dreamG3677 notG3361 to returnG344 toG4314 HerodG2264, they withdrewG402 toG1519 theirG846 countryG5561 byG1223 anotherG243 routeG3598.
