< Matthew 1 >

1 A book of a genealogy of Jesus Christ, the son of David, the son of Abraham.
ܟܬܒܐ ܕܝܠܝܕܘܬܗ ܕܝܫܘܥ ܡܫܝܚܐ ܒܪܗ ܕܕܘܝܕ ܒܪܗ ܕܐܒܪܗܡ
2 Abraham begot Isaac, and Isaac begot Jacob, and Jacob begot Judah and his brothers,
ܐܒܪܗܡ ܐܘܠܕ ܠܐܝܤܚܩ ܐܝܤܚܩ ܐܘܠܕ ܠܝܥܩܘܒ ܝܥܩܘܒ ܐܘܠܕ ܠܝܗܘܕܐ ܘܠܐܚܘܗܝ
3 and Judah begot Perez and Zerah from Tamar, and Perez begot Hezron, and Hezron begot Ram,
ܝܗܘܕܐ ܐܘܠܕ ܠܦܪܨ ܘܠܙܪܚ ܡܢ ܬܡܪ ܦܪܨ ܐܘܠܕ ܠܚܨܪܘܢ ܚܨܪܘܢ ܐܘܠܕ ܠܐܪܡ
4 and Ram begot Amminadab, and Amminadab begot Nahshon, and Nahshon begot Salmon,
ܐܪܡ ܐܘܠܕ ܠܥܡܝܢܕܒ ܥܡܝܢܕܒ ܐܘܠܕ ܠܢܚܫܘܢ ܢܚܫܘܢ ܐܘܠܕ ܠܤܠܡܘܢ
5 and Salmon begot Boaz from Rahab, and Boaz begot Obed from Ruth, and Obed begot Jesse,
ܤܠܡܘܢ ܐܘܠܕ ܠܒܥܙ ܡܢ ܪܚܒ ܒܥܙ ܐܘܠܕ ܠܥܘܒܝܕ ܡܢ ܪܥܘܬ ܥܘܒܝܕ ܐܘܠܕ ܠܐܝܫܝ
6 and Jesse begot David the king. And David begot Solomon from the widow of Uriah,
ܐܝܫܝ ܐܘܠܕ ܠܕܘܝܕ ܡܠܟܐ ܕܘܝܕ ܐܘܠܕ ܠܫܠܝܡܘܢ ܡܢ ܐܢܬܬܗ ܕܐܘܪܝܐ
7 and Solomon begot Rehoboam, and Rehoboam begot Abijah, and Abijah begot Asa,
ܫܠܝܡܘܢ ܐܘܠܕ ܠܪܚܒܥܡ ܪܚܒܥܡ ܐܘܠܕ ܠܐܒܝܐ ܐܒܝܐ ܐܘܠܕ ܠܐܤܐ
8 and Asa begot Jehoshaphat, and Jehoshaphat begot Joram, and Joram begot Uzziah,
ܐܤܐ ܐܘܠܕ ܠܝܗܘܫܦܛ ܝܗܘܫܦܛ ܐܘܠܕ ܠܝܘܪܡ ܝܘܪܡ ܐܘܠܕ ܠܥܘܙܝܐ
9 and Uzziah begot Jotham, and Jotham begot Ahaz, and Ahaz begot Hezekiah,
ܥܘܙܝܐ ܐܘܠܕ ܠܝܘܬܡ ܝܘܬܡ ܐܘܠܕ ܠܐܚܙ ܐܚܙ ܐܘܠܕ ܠܚܙܩܝܐ
10 and Hezekiah begot Manasseh, and Manasseh begot Amon, and Amon begot Josiah,
ܚܙܩܝܐ ܐܘܠܕ ܠܡܢܫܐ ܡܢܫܐ ܐܘܠܕ ܠܐܡܘܢ ܐܡܘܢ ܐܘܠܕ ܠܝܘܫܝܐ
11 and Josiah begot Jechoniah and his brothers during the Babylonian exile.
ܝܘܫܝܐ ܐܘܠܕ ܠܝܘܟܢܝܐ ܘܠܐܚܘܗܝ ܒܓܠܘܬܐ ܕܒܒܠ
12 And after the Babylonian exile, Jechoniah begot Shealtiel, and Shealtiel begot Zerubbabel,
ܡܢ ܒܬܪ ܓܠܘܬܐ ܕܝܢ ܕܒܒܠ ܝܘܟܢܝܐ ܐܘܠܕ ܠܫܠܬܐܝܠ ܫܠܬܐܝܠ ܐܘܠܕ ܠܙܘܪܒܒܠ
13 and Zerubbabel begot Abiud, and Abiud begot Eliakim, and Eliakim begot Azor,
ܙܘܪܒܒܠ ܐܘܠܕ ܠܐܒܝܘܕ ܐܒܝܘܕ ܐܘܠܕ ܠܐܠܝܩܝܡ ܐܠܝܩܝܡ ܐܘܠܕ ܠܥܙܘܪ
14 and Azor begot Zadoc, and Zadoc begot Achim, and Achim begot Eliud,
ܥܙܘܪ ܐܘܠܕ ܠܙܕܘܩ ܙܕܘܩ ܐܘܠܕ ܠܐܟܝܢ ܐܟܝܢ ܐܘܠܕ ܠܐܠܝܘܕ
15 and Eliud begot Eleazar, and Eleazar begot Matthan, and Matthan begot Jacob,
ܐܠܝܘܕ ܐܘܠܕ ܠܐܠܝܥܙܪ ܐܠܝܥܙܪ ܐܘܠܕ ܠܡܬܢ ܡܬܢ ܐܘܠܕ ܠܝܥܩܘܒ
16 and Jacob begot Joseph the husband of Mary, of whom was born Jesus, who is called Christ.
ܝܥܩܘܒ ܐܘܠܕ ܠܝܘܤܦ ܓܒܪܗ ܕܡܪܝܡ ܕܡܢܗ ܐܬܝܠܕ ܝܫܘܥ ܕܡܬܩܪܐ ܡܫܝܚܐ
17 So all the generations from Abraham to David are fourteen generations, and from David to the Babylonian exile fourteen generations, and from the Babylonian exile to the Christ fourteen generations.
ܟܠܗܝܢ ܗܟܝܠ ܫܪܒܬܐ ܡܢ ܐܒܪܗܡ ܥܕܡܐ ܠܕܘܝܕ ܫܪܒܬܐ ܐܪܒܥܤܪܐ ܘܡܢ ܕܘܝܕ ܥܕܡܐ ܠܓܠܘܬܐ ܕܒܒܠ ܫܪܒܬܐ ܐܪܒܥܤܪܐ ܘܡܢ ܓܠܘܬܐ ܕܒܒܠ ܥܕܡܐ ܠܡܫܝܚܐ ܫܪܒܬܐ ܐܪܒܥܤܪܐ
18 Now the birth of Jesus Christ was this way. For his mother Mary, who was betrothed to Joseph, before they came together she was found having in her womb from the Holy Spirit.
ܝܠܕܗ ܕܝܢ ܕܝܫܘܥ ܡܫܝܚܐ ܗܟܢܐ ܗܘܐ ܟܕ ܡܟܝܪܐ ܗܘܬ ܡܪܝܡ ܐܡܗ ܠܝܘܤܦ ܥܕܠܐ ܢܫܬܘܬܦܘܢ ܐܫܬܟܚܬ ܒܛܢܐ ܡܢ ܪܘܚܐ ܕܩܘܕܫܐ
19 But Joseph her husband, being a righteous man, and not wanting to expose her to public disgrace, intended to dismiss her privately.
ܝܘܤܦ ܕܝܢ ܒܥܠܗ ܟܐܢܐ ܗܘܐ ܘܠܐ ܨܒܐ ܕܢܦܪܤܝܗ ܘܐܬܪܥܝ ܗܘܐ ܕܡܛܫܝܐܝܬ ܢܫܪܝܗ
20 But while he considered these things, behold, an agent of the Lord appeared to him in a dream, saying, Joseph, thou son of David, fear not to take Mary to be thy wife, for that which was begotten in her is from the Holy Spirit.
ܟܕ ܗܠܝܢ ܕܝܢ ܐܬܪܥܝ ܐܬܚܙܝ ܠܗ ܡܠܐܟܐ ܕܡܪܝܐ ܒܚܠܡܐ ܘܐܡܪ ܠܗ ܝܘܤܦ ܒܪܗ ܕܕܘܝܕ ܠܐ ܬܕܚܠ ܠܡܤܒ ܠܡܪܝܡ ܐܢܬܬܟ ܗܘ ܓܝܪ ܕܐܬܝܠܕ ܒܗ ܡܢ ܪܘܚܐ ܗܘ ܕܩܘܕܫܐ
21 And she will bring forth a son, and thou shall call his name JESUS, for he will save his people from their sins.
ܬܐܠܕ ܕܝܢ ܒܪܐ ܘܬܩܪܐ ܫܡܗ ܝܫܘܥ ܗܘ ܓܝܪ ܢܚܝܘܗܝ ܠܥܡܗ ܡܢ ܚܛܗܝܗܘܢ
22 Now all this has come to pass, so that what was spoken by the Lord through the prophet might be fulfilled, which says,
ܗܕܐ ܕܝܢ ܟܠܗ ܕܗܘܬ ܕܢܬܡܠܐ ܡܕܡ ܕܐܬܐܡܪ ܡܢ ܡܪܝܐ ܒܝܕ ܢܒܝܐ
23 Behold, the virgin will have in her womb, and will bring forth a son. And they will call his name Immanuel, which is, being interpreted, God with us.
ܕܗܐ ܒܬܘܠܬܐ ܬܒܛܢ ܘܬܐܠܕ ܒܪܐ ܘܢܩܪܘܢ ܫܡܗ ܥܡܢܘܐܝܠ ܕܡܬܬܪܓܡ ܥܡܢ ܐܠܗܢ
24 And Joseph, being roused from his sleep, did as the agent of the Lord ordered him. And he took his wife,
ܟܕ ܩܡ ܕܝܢ ܝܘܤܦ ܡܢ ܫܢܬܗ ܥܒܕ ܐܝܟܢܐ ܕܦܩܕ ܠܗ ܡܠܐܟܗ ܕܡܪܝܐ ܘܕܒܪܗ ܠܐܢܬܬܗ
25 and knew her not until she brought forth her son, the firstborn. And he called his name JESUS.
ܘܠܐ ܚܟܡܗ ܥܕܡܐ ܕܝܠܕܬܗ ܠܒܪܗ ܒܘܟܪܐ ܘܩܪܬ ܫܡܗ ܝܫܘܥ
