Matthew 2:9-12

9After hearing the king, they went on their way; and behold, the star, which they had seen in the east, went on ahead of them until it came to a stop over the place where the Child was to be found. 10When they saw the star, they rejoiced exceedingly with great joy. 11And after they came into the house, they saw the Child with 1His mother Mary; and they fell down and 23worshiped Him. Then they opened their treasures and presented to Him gifts of gold, frankincense, and myrrh. 12And after being 4warned by God 5in a dream not to return to Herod, the magi left for their own country by another way.
