3 When Herod the king had heard [these things], he was troubled and all Jerusalem with him.

4 And when he had gathered all the chief priests and scribes of the people together, he asked them where the Christ should be born.

5 And they said unto him, In Bethlehem of Judaea, for thus it is written by the prophet,

6 And thou Bethlehem, [in] the land of Juda, art not the least among the princes of Juda, for out of thee shall come a Leader that shall shepherd my people Israel.

7 Then Herod, calling the wise men unto him secretly, understood of them [with diligence] the time of the appearing of the star;

8 and sending them to Bethlehem, he said, Go there and search [diligently] for the young child; and when ye have found [him], bring me word again that I may come and worship him [also].
