Vyāghrī-jātaka in the Mahāvastu and Fobenxingji jing

The article presents an edition and translation of the chapter Vyāghrī-jātaka preserved in the Mahāvastu. The story has been preserved in two versions: one in verse and the other one in prose. The verses parallel to some extent with those in the Chinese translation of the biography of the Buddha entitled Fobenxingji jing. Through the comparison of the versions of the story preserved in these two texts, it became possible to correct some errors in the Mahāvastu and propose better readings.
