and wonder: "Where is He, the king of the Jews that is born? We have seen his star in the East and are come to worship him."
When Herod the king heard this, he was shocked and all Jerusalem.
He gathered all the chief priests and scribes of the Jews, then requested information from them, where the Messiah would be born.
They said to him: "In Bethlehem of Judea, because it is written by the prophet:
And Bethlehem, land of Judah, you not the smallest among the rulers of Judah, because of you shall come a Ruler who will be king to my people Israel. "
Then Herod secretly summoned the wise men and asked them carefully, when the star appeared.
Then he sent them to Bethlehem, saying: "Go and examine carefully the things concerning the Son, and soon after you find him, tell to me so that I will come to worship Him."
After hearing the words of the king, they departed. And behold, they saw the star in the East went before them and stood over the place, where the boy was located.

Then they entered into the house and saw the child with Mary his mother, then fall down and worship Him. they opened their bag and offered sacrifices to Him, namely gold, frankincense and myrrh.
