Matthew 2:7-9

International Children’s Bible

⁷ Then Herod had a secret meeting with the wise men from the east. He learned from them the exact time they first saw the star. ⁸ Then Herod sent the wise men to Bethlehem. He said to them, “Go and look carefully to find the child. When you find him, come tell me. Then I can go worship him too.”

⁹ The wise men heard the king and then left. They saw the same star they had seen in the east. It went before them until it stopped above the place where the child was.
