Matthew 2:9-11

9 After hearing the king, they went their way; and the star, which they had seen in the east, went on before them until it came and stood over the place where the Child was.

10 When they saw the star, they rejoiced exceedingly with great joy.

11 After coming into the house they saw the Child with ¹Mary His mother; and they fell to the ground and ²worshiped Him. Then, opening their treasures, they presented to Him gifts of gold, frankincense, and myrrh.
