マタイ伝福音書第２章１～１２節（文語訳聖書）
1イエスはヘロデ王の時、ユダヤのベツレヘムに生れ給ひしが、視よ、東の博士たちエルサレムに来りて言ふ2『ユダヤ人の王とて生れ給へる者は、何処に在すか。我ら東にてその星を見たれば、拝せんために来れり』3ヘロデ王これを聞きて悩みまどふ、エルサレムも皆然り。4王、民の祭司長・学者らを皆あつめて、キリストの何処に生るべきを問ひ質す。5かれら言ふ『ユダヤのベツレヘムなり。それは預言者によりて、6「ユダの地ベツレヘムよ、汝はユダの長等の中にて最小き者にあらず、汝の中より一人の君いでて、わが民イスラエルを牧せん」と録されたるなり』7ここにヘロデ密に博士たちを招きて、星の現れし時を詳細にし、8彼らをベツレヘムに遣さんとして言ふ『往きて幼児のことを細にたづね、之にあはば我に告げよ。我も往きて拝せん』9彼ら王の言をききて往きしに、視よ、前に東にて見し星、先だちゆきて、幼児の在すところの上に止る。10かれら星を見て、歓喜に溢れつつ、11家に入りて、幼児のその母マリヤと偕に在すを見、平伏して拝し、かつ宝の匣をあけて、黄金・乳香・没薬など礼物を献げたり。12斯て夢にてヘロデの許へ返るなとの御告げを蒙り、ほかの路より己が国に去りゆきぬ。

The Gospel according to St. Matthew. Chapter 2:1-12 (King James Version)
1Now when Jesus was born in Bethlehem of Judea in the days of Herod the king, behold, there came wise men from the east to Jerusalem,
2Saying, Where is he that is born King of the Jews? for we have seen his star in the east, and are come to worship him.
3When Herod the king had heard these things, he was troubled, and all Jerusalem with him.
4And when he had gathered all the chief priests and scribes of the people together, he demanded of them where Christ should be born.
5And they said unto him, In Bethlehem of Judea: for thus it is written by the prophet,
6And thou Bethlehem, in the land of Juda, art not the least among the princes of Juda: for out of thee shall come a Governor, that shall rule my people Israel.
7Then Herod, when he had privily called the wise men, inquired of them diligently what time the star appeared.
8And he sent them to Bethlehem, and said, Go and search diligently for the young child; and when ye have found him, bring me word agein, that I may come and worship him also.
9When they had heard the king, they departed; and, lo, the star, which they saw in the east, went before them, till it came and stood over where the young child was.
10When they saw the star, they rejoiced with exceeding great joy.
11And when they were come into the house, they saw the young child with Mary his mother, and fell down, and worshipped him: and when they had opened their treasures, they presented unto him gifts; gold, and frankincense, and myrrh.
12And being warned of God in a dream that they should not return to Herod, they departed into their own country another way.
