Matthew 2:8-11

8And he sent them to Bethlehem and said, “Go and search carefully for the Child; and when you have found Him, report to me, so that I too may come and worship Him.”

9After hearing the king, they went their way; and the star, which they had seen in the east, went on before them until it came and stood over the place where the Child was.

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

11After coming into the house they saw the Child with 1Mary His mother; and they 2fell to the ground and 3worshiped Him. Then, opening their treasures, they presented to Him gifts of gold, frankincense, and myrrh.
