1ehem Of Judaea in the days of Herod
the king, behold, there came wise men
from the east to Jerusalem.

star in the east and are come to wor-
ship him

these things, he was troubled, and all
Jerusalem with him.

chief priests and scribes of the people
together, he demanded of them where

the young child; and when ye have
found him, bring me word again, that
may come and worship him also.

they saw in the east, went before them,
till. it came and stood over where the
yeung child was.
10 When they saw the star, they re-
5oiced with exceeding great Joy.

the house, they saw the young child
with Mary his mother, and fell down,
