Bible verse for January 6

⁷ Then Herod privately summoned the magi and questioned them to pin down when the star had appeared. ⁸ Sending them to Bethlehem, he said, “Go and make a careful search for the child. Once you have found him, bring me word, so that I also can come and worship him.” ⁹ When they had heard the king out, they set off, and there was the star they had seen as it rose, leading them on until it came and halted over the place where the child was. ¹⁰ At the sight of the star, they rejoiced with very great joy. ¹¹ They went into the house and saw the child with Mary his mother, and falling down, they worshiped him. Then they opened their treasure chests and brought him gifts of gold, frankincense, and myrrh. ¹² Warned in a dream not to return to Herod, they went back to their own land by a different road. ¹³ Once they had left, an angel of the Lord suddenly appeared to Joseph in a dream and said, “Get up! Take the child and his mother and flee to Egypt, and stay there until I give you word, because Herod is about to hunt for the child to destroy him.” ¹⁴ So Joseph got up, and during the night he took the child and his mother and went away to Egypt.
