Matthew 2:7-12

7ThenG5119 HerodG2264, having secretlyG2977 calledG2564 the magiG3097, inquired of them accurately the timeG5550 of the starG792 that was appearing;

8and having sentG3992 them to BethlehemG965, saidG3004, GoG4198, search out accurately concerningG4012 the childG3813, and when ye shall have foundG2147 [him] bring me back wordG518, so that I alsoG2532 may comeG2064 and do him homage.

9And they having heardG191 the kingG935 went their way; and lo, the starG792, which they had seenG3708 in the eastG395, went before them until it cameG2064 and stoodG2476 over the place whereG3757 the little childG3813 wasG1510.

10And when they sawG3708 the starG792 they rejoicedG5463 with exceeding greatG3173 joyG5479.

11And having comeG2064 into the houseG3614 they sawG3708 the little childG3813 with MaryG3137 his motherG3384, and fallingG4098 downG4098 did him homage. And having openedG455 their treasuresG2344, they offeredG4374 to him giftsG1435, goldG5557, and frankincenseG3030, and myrrhG4666.

12And being divinely instructed in a dreamG3677 not to returnG344 to HerodG2264, they departed into their own countryG5561 another wayG3598.
