means least among the rulers of Judah; for out of you will

come a ruler who will be the shepherd of my people Israel.'

" 7 Then Herod called the Magi secretly and found out from

them the exact time the star had appeared. 8 He sent themto Bethlehem and said, "Go and make a careful search for

the child. As soon as you find him, report to me, so that I

too may go and worship him." 9 After they had heard the

king, they went on their way, and the star they had seen inthe east went ahead of them until it stopped over the place

where the child was. 10 When they saw the star, they were
