Now Jesus having been 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 is born king of the Jews? For we saw his star in the east, and have come to worship him.

And when they heard the king, they departed. And lo, the star that they saw in the east went before them until, having come, it stood over where the child was.

Now John himself had his raiment of camel's hair, and a leather belt about his waist. And his food was locusts and wild honey.

And I say to you, that many will come from east and west, and will sit down with Abraham, and Isaac, and Jacob, in the kingdom of the heavens,

For as the lightning comes out from the east, and shines as far as the west, so also will be the coming of the Son of man.
