17 All the generations, therefore, from Abraham to David [are] fourteen generations, and from David to the Babylonian removal fourteen generations, and from the Babylonian removal to the Christ, fourteen generations.
All the generations therefore from Abraham to David are fourteen generations: and from David until the captivity of Babylon fourteen generations: and from the Babylonish captivity unto Christ, fourteen generations.
18 And of Jesus Christ, the birth was thus: for His mother Mary having been betrothed to Joseph, before their coming together she was found to have conceived from the Holy Spirit,
Now the birth of Jesus Christ was in wise: when Mary his mother was promised in marriage to Joseph, before they came together, she was found with child by the Holy Ghost:
19 and her husband Joseph being righteous, and not willing to make her an example, resolved to send her away privately.
but Joseph her husband, being a just man, and not willing publicly to expose her, was inclined to break off the contract with her privately;
20 And on his thinking of these things, behold, a messenger of the LORD appeared to him in a dream, saying, “Joseph, son of David, you may not fear to receive your wife Mary, for that which was begotten in her is of [the] Holy Spirit,
and when he was thinking on these things, behold an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream, saying, Joseph thou Son of David, scruple not to take unto thee Mary thy wife; for that which is conceived in her is from the Holy Spirit.
21 and she will bring forth a Son, and you will call His Name Jesus, for He will save His people from their sins.”
And she shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt call his name Jesus, for he shall save his people from their sins.
22 And all this has come to pass, that it may be fulfilled that was spoken by the LORD through the prophet, saying,
(Now all this came to pass, that it might be fulfilled, which the Lord spake by the prophet, saying,
23 “Behold, the virgin will conceive, and she will bring forth a Son, and they will call His Name Emmanuel,” which is, being interpreted, “God with us.”
"Behold a virgin shall conceive and bear a son, and they shall call his name Emmanuel," which is God with us.)
24 And Joseph, having risen from sleep, did as the messenger of the LORD directed him, and received his wife,
So Joseph, when he awoke from his sleep, did as the angel of the Lord directed him, and took home his wife:
25 and did not know her until she brought forth her Son—the firstborn, and he called His Name Jesus.
and he knew her not, till she brought forth her Son the first-born, and he called his name Jesus.
