1 The book of the generation of Jesus Christ, the son of David, the son of Abraham.
The book of the generation of Jesus Christ, the son of David, the son of Abraham.
2 Abraham brings forth Isaac; and Isaac brings forth Jacob; and Jacob brings forth Judas and his brethren;
Abraham begat Isaac; and Isaac begat Jacob; and Jacob begat Judah and his brothers;
3 And Judas brings forth Phares and Zara of Thamar; and Phares brings forth Esrom; and Esrom brings forth Aram;
And Judah begat Phares and Zara from Thamar; and Phares begat Esrom; and Esrom begat Aram;
4 And Aram brings forth Aminadab; and Aminadab brings forth Naasson; and Naasson brings forth Salmon;
and Aram begat Aminadab; and Aminadab begat Naasson; and Naasson begat Salmon;
5 And Salmon brings forth Booz of Rachab; and Booz brings forth Obed of Ruth; and Obed brings forth Jesse;
and Salmon begat Booz of Rachab; and Booz begat Obed of Ruth; and Obed begat Jesse;
6 And Jesse brings forth David the king; and David the king brings forth Solomon of her that had been the wife of Urias;
and Jesse begat David the king; and David the king begat Solomon of her who was the wife of Uriah;
7 And Solomon brings forth Roboam; and Roboam brings forth Abia; and Abia brings forth Asa;
and Solomon begat Roboam; and Roboam begat Abia; and Abia begat Asa;
8 And Asa brings forth Josaphat; and Josaphat brings forth Joram; and Joram brings forth Ozias;
and Asa begat Josaphat; and Josaphat begat Joram; Joram begat Hozias;
9 And Ozias brings forth Joatham; and Joatham brings forth Achaz; and Achaz brings forth Ezekias;
Hozias begat Joatham; and Joatham begat Achaz; Achaz begat Hezekiah;
10 And Ezekias brings forth Manasses; and Manasses brings forth Amon; and Amon brings forth Josias;
and Hezekiah begat Manasses; and Manasses begat Amon; and Amon begat Josiah;
11 And Josias brings forth Jechonias and his brethren, about the time they were carried away to Babylon:
and Josiah begat Jechonias and his brothers in the captivity of Babylon.
12 And after they were brought to Babylon, Jechonias brings forth Salathiel; and Salathiel brings forth Zorobabel;
And after the captivity of Babylon, Jechonias begat Salathiel; and Salathiel begat Zorababbel;
13 And Zorobabel brings forth Abiud; and Abiud brings forth Eliakim; and Eliakim brings forth Azor;
Zorababbel begat Abiud; and Abiud begat Eliakim; and Eliakim begat Azor;
14 And Azor brings forth Sadoc; and Sadoc brings forth Achim; and Achim brings forth Eliud;

16 And Jacob brings forth Joseph the husband of Mary, of whom was born Jesus, who is called Christ.
and Jacob begat Joseph the husband of Mary, from whom Jesus, who is called Christ, was born.
17 So all the generations from Abraham to David are fourteen generations; and from David until the carrying away into Babylon are fourteen generations; and from the carrying away into Babylon unto Christ are fourteen generations.
Therefore all the generations from Abraham unto David are fourteen generations; from David unto the captivity of Babylon are fourteen generations; and from the captivity of Babylon unto Christ are fourteen generations.
18 Now the birth of Jesus Christ was likewise: When as his mother Mary was espoused to Joseph, before they came together, she was found with child of the Holy Spirit. (pneuma)
The birth of Jesus Christ was thus: His mother Mary, having been betrothed to Joseph, before they came together, was found having gestation from the Holy Ghost.
19 Then Joseph her husband, being a just man, and not willing to make her a public example, was minded to put her away privately.
And Joseph her husband, being righteous and not wishing to expose her publicly, determined to send her away secretly.
20 But while he thought on these things, behold, the angel of the LORD appeared unto him in a dream, saying, Joseph, you son of David, fear not to take unto you Mary your wife: for that which is conceived in her is of the Holy Spirit. (pneuma)
And he meditating on these things, behold an angel of the Lord appeared unto him in a dream, saying; Joseph, son of David, do not fear to receive Mary thy wife; for that which is begotten in her is of the Holy Spirit;
21 And she shall bring forth a son, and you shall call his name JESUS: for he shall save his people from their sins.
she shall bring forth a son; and thou shalt call his name Jesus; for He will save His people from their sins.
22 Now all this was done, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken of the Lord by the prophet, saying,
And all this took place in order that the Word, having been spoken by the Lord through the prophet, might be fulfilled, saying;
23 Behold, a virgin shall be with child, and shall bring forth a son, and they shall call his name Emmanuel, which being interpreted is, God with us.
Behold, the virgin shall have gestation and bring forth a son, and they will call his name Emmanuel, which is interpreted, God is with us.
24 Then Joseph being raised from sleep did as the angel of the Lord had bidden him, and took unto him his wife:
And Joseph rising from sleep did as the angel of the Lord commanded him;
25 And had sexual contact with her not till she had brought forth her firstborn son: and he called his name JESUS.
and he took his wife to himself, and did not know her until she brought forth a son, and called his name Jesus.
