Matthew 2:7-10

7Then Herod summoned the wise men secretly and ascertained from them what time the star had appeared.

8And he sent them to Bethlehem, saying, "Go and search diligently for the child, and when you have found him, bring me word, that I too may come and worship him."

9After listening to the king, they went on their way. And behold, the star that they had seen when it rose went before them until it came to rest over the place where the child was.

10When they saw the star, they rejoiced exceedingly with great joy.
