Now the birth of Jesus Christ was as follows: After His mother Mary was betrothed to Joseph, before they came together, she was found with child of the Holy Spirit. Then Joseph her husband, being a just man, and not wanting to make her a public example, was minded to put her away secretly. But while he thought about these things, behold, an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream, saying, “Joseph, son of David, do not be afraid to take to you Mary your wife, for that which is conceived in her is of the Holy Spirit. And she will bring forth a Son, and you shall call His name Jesus, for He will save His people from their sins.” So all this was done that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the Lord through the prophet, saying: “Behold, the virgin shall be with child, and bear a Son, and they shall call His name Immanuel,” which is translated, “God with us.” Then Joseph, being aroused from sleep, did as the angel of the Lord commanded him and took to him his wife, and did not know her till she had brought forth her firstborn Son. And he called His name Jesus. Matthew 2:1-12 Now after Jesus was born in Bethlehem of Judea in the days of Herod the king, behold, wise men from the East came to Jerusalem, saying, “Where is He who has been born King of the Jews? For we have seen His star in the East and have come to worship Him.” When Herod the king heard this, he was troubled, and all Jerusalem with him. And when he had gathered all the chief priests and scribes of the people together, he inquired of them where the Christ was to be born. So they said to him, “In Bethlehem of Judea, for thus it is written by the prophet: ‘But you, Bethlehem, in the land of Judah, Are not the least among the rulers of Judah; For out of you shall come a Ruler Who will shepherd My people Israel.’” Then Herod, when he had secretly called the wise men, determined from them what time the star appeared. And he sent them to Bethlehem and said, “Go and search carefully for the young Child, and when you have found Him, bring back word to me, that I may come and worship Him also.” When they heard the king, they departed; and behold, the star which they had seen in the East went before them, till it came and stood over where the young Child was. When they saw the star, they rejoiced with exceedingly great joy. And when they had come into the house, they saw the young Child with Mary His mother, and fell down and worshiped Him. And when they had opened their treasures, they presented gifts to Him: gold, frankincense, and myrrh. Then, being divinely warned in a dream that they should not return to Herod, they departed for their own country another way.

Briathar Dé Nuair a bhí Íosa saolaithe i mBeithil Iúdáia in aimsir Héaróid rí, tháinig saoithe ón aird thoir go dtí Iarúsailéim ag fiafraí: "Cá bhfuil an leanbh seo atá saolaithe, Rí na nGiúdach? Mar chonaiceamar a réalta ag éirí, agus thángamar ag déanamh ómóis dó." Nuair a chuala Héaród rí an méíd sin, bhí sé corraithe, agus Iarúsailéim go léir mar an gcéanna. Thionóil sé le chéile uachtaráin na sagart agus scríobhaithe an phobail, agus d'fhiafraigh díobh cén áit a raibh an Críost le saolú. D'inis siad dó: "I mBeithil Iúdáia: óir sin é atá sa scríbhinn ón bhfáidh: 'Thusa, a Bheithil, i dtalamh Iúdá, níl tú baol ar an té is lú i measc prionsaí Iúdá, óir is asat a thiocfaidh ceann urra a bheidh ina aoire ar mo phobalsa, Iosrael.'" Ansin chuir Héaród fios ar na saoithe os íseal agus fuair tuairisc uathu ar an am a bhfacthas an réalta. Chuir sé go Beithil iad ansin agus dúirt: "Imígí agus cuirigí fiafraí ghéar ar an leanbh. Nuair a bhíonn sé faighte agaibh, cuirigí scéala chugam chun go rachainn féin ann ag déanamh ómóis dó." Nuair a chuala siad caint an rí, d'imigh siad leo. Agus an réalta, a bhí feicthe acu roimhe sin ag éirí, ghluais sí rompu go dtí gur stad sí os cionn na háite ina raibh an leanbh. Nuair a chonaic siad an réalta, bhí áthas an-mhór orthu. Agus ar dhul isteach sa teach dóibh, chonaic siad an leanbh le Muire a mháthair, agus d'umhlaigh siad go talamh ag déanamh ómóis dó. Agus d'oscail siad a gcistí agus d'ofráil siad tabhartais dó, ór agus túis agus miorra. Agus ó fuair siad foilsiú i mbrionglóid gan dul ar ais go dtí Héaród, ghabh siad bóthar eile abhaile chun a dtíre féin. Smaointí ar Scrioptúir an lae - Ba bhreá liom an nós Bavárach na litreacha G B M (Gaspár, Meilciár, Baltasár) a scríobh le cailc ar bhalla gach seomra sa teach maidin na hEipeafáine. Is iad seo ainmneacha na Ríthe, de réir an tseanchais, a sheasann mar ionadaithe do náisiúin uile an domhain. Is mó is fíor é anois go bhfuil náisiúin an domhain ag bogadh chun na tíre seo, isteach i mo áit chónaithe féin. An bhfaigheann siad tusa, a Thiarna, ansin? Má tá an chóir agus an grá le fáil i mo áit chónaithe, beidh tocht ar chroíthe cuairteoirí, amhail na Mágaí, le teann lúcháire, agus déanfaidh siad ómós duit.
