rkjnt Matthew:2:1-12
rkjnt@Matthew:2:1 @ Now when Jesus was born in Bethlehem of Judaea in the days of Herod the king, behold, wise men came from the east to Jerusalem,
rkjnt@Matthew:2:2 @ Saying, Where is he who has been born King of the Jews? for we have seen his star in the east, and have come to worship him.
rkjnt@Matthew:2:3 @ When Herod the king had heard these things, he was troubled, and all Jerusalem with him.
rkjnt@Matthew:2:4 @ And when he had gathered all the chief priests and scribes of the people together, he inquired of them where the Christ was to be born.
rkjnt@Matthew:2:5 @ And they said to him, In Bethlehem of Judaea: for thus it was written by the prophet,
rkjnt@Matthew:2:6 @ And you Bethlehem, in the land of Judah, are not the least among the princes of Judah: for out of you shall come a Governor, who shall rule my people Israel.
rkjnt@Matthew:2:7 @ Then Herod, when he had secretly called the wise men, ascertained from them at what time the star appeared.
rkjnt@Matthew:2:8 @ And he sent them to Bethlehem, and said, Go and search diligently for the child; and when you have found him, bring me word, that I may come and worship him also.
rkjnt@Matthew:2:9 @ When they had heard the king, they departed; and, lo, the star, which they saw in the east, went before them, until it came and stood over where the child was.
rkjnt@Matthew:2:10 @ When they saw the star, they rejoiced with exceedingly great joy.
rkjnt@Matthew:2:11 @ And when they had come into the house, they saw the child with Mary his mother, and fell down, and worshipped him: and when they had opened their treasures, they presented to him gifts; gold, and frankincense, and myrrh.
rkjnt@Matthew:2:12 @ And being warned by God in a dream that they should not return to Herod, they departed to their own country by another way.
