6 og Isaj avlede Kong David; og David avlede Salomon med Urias's Hustru;
and Jesse was the father of David the king. David the king was the father of Solomon by the wife of Uriah,
7 og Salomon avlede Roboam; og Roboam avlede Abia; og Abia avlede Asa;
Solomon was the father of Rehoboam, Rehoboam was the father of Abijah, Abijah was the father of Asa,
8 og Asa avlede Josafat; og Josafat avlede Joram; og Joram avlede Ozias;

10 og Ezekias avlede Manasse; og Manasse avlede Amon; og Amon avlede Josias;
Hezekiah was the father of Manasseh, Manasseh was the father of Amon, Amon was the father of Josiah,
11 og Josias avlede Jekonias og hans Brødre paa den Tid, da Bortførelsen til Babylon fandt Sted.
and Josiah was the father of Jechoniah and his brothers, at the time of the Babylonian resettlement.
12 Men efter Bortførelsen til Babylon avlede Jekonias Salathiel; og Salathiel avlede Zorobabel;
After the Babylonian resettlement, Jechoniah was the father of Shealtiel, Shealtiel was the father of Zerubbabel,
13 og Zorobabel avlede Abiud; og Abiud avlede Eliakim; og Eliakim avlede Azor;
Zerubbabel was the father of Abiud, Abiud was the father of Eliakim, Eliakim was the father of Azor,

16 og Jakob avlede Josef, Marias Mand; af hende blev Jesus født, som kaldes Kristus.
and Jacob was the father of Joseph the husband of Mary, of whom was born Jesus, who is called Christ.
17 Altsaa ere alle Slægtledene fra Abraham indtil David fjorten Slægtled, og fra David indtil Bortførelsen til Babylon fjorten Slægtled, og fra Bortførelsen til Babylon indtil Kristus fjorten Slægtled.
So in all there were fourteen generations from Abraham to David, fourteen generations from David to the Babylonian resettlement, and fourteen generations from the Babylonian resettlement to the Christ.
18 Men med Jesu Kristi Fødsel gik det saaledes til. Da Maria, hans Moder, var trolovet med Josef, fandtes hun, førend de kom sammen, at være frugtsommelig af den Helligaand.
Now the birth of Jesus Christ took place in this way. When his mother Mary had been betrothed to Joseph, before they came together, she was found to be with child from the Holy Spirit.
19 Men da Josef, hendes Mand, var retfærdig og ikke vilde beskæmme hende offentligt, besluttede han hemmeligt at skille sig fra hende.
Because her husband Joseph was a righteous man and did not want to shame her publicly, he intended to send her away privately.
20 Men idet han tænkte derpaa, se, da viste en Herrens Engel sig for ham i en Drøm og sagde: „Josef, Davids Søn! frygt ikke for at tage din Hustru Maria til dig; thi det, som er avlet i hende, er af den Helligaand.
But as he thought about these things, behold, an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream and said, “Joseph, Son of David, do not be afraid to receive Mary as yoʋr wife, for the child that is conceived in her is from the Holy Spirit.
21 Og hun skal føde en Søn, og du skal kalde hans Navn Jesus; thi han skal frelse sit Folk fra deres Synder.‟
She will give birth to a son, and yoʋ shall name him Jesus, for he will save his people from their sins.”
22 Men dette er alt sammen sket, for at det skulde opfyldes, som er talt af Herren ved Profeten, som siger:
All this took place to fulfill what the Lord had spoken through the prophet:
23 „Se, Jomfruen skal blive frugtsommelig og føde en Søn, og man skal kalde hans Navn Immanuel‟, hvilket er udlagt: Gud med os.
“Behold, the virgin will conceive and give birth to a son, and they will name him Immanuel” (which means, “God with us”).
24 Men da Josef vaagnede op af Søvnen, gjorde han, som Herrens Engel havde befalet ham, og han tog sin Hustru til sig.
When Joseph awoke from his sleep, he did as the angel of the Lord had commanded him. He took his wife
25 Og han kendte hende ikke, førend hun havde født sin Søn, den førstefødte, og han kaldte hans Navn Jesus.
but had no marital relations with her until she had given birth to her firstborn son. And he named him Jesus.
