11 and Josiah begot Jeconiah and his brothers, at the Babylonian removal.
and Josiah the father of Jechoniah and his brothers, at the time of the exile to Babylon.
12 And after the Babylonian removal, Jeconiah begot Shealtiel, and Shealtiel begot Zerubbabel,
And after the exile to Babylon, Jechoniah was the father of Shealtiel, and Shealtiel the father of Zerubbabel,

16 and Jacob begot Joseph, the husband of Mary, of whom was begotten Jesus, who is named Christ.
and Jacob the father of Joseph, the husband of Mary, from whom was born Jesus, who is called the Christ.
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.
So all the generations from Abraham to David are fourteen generations; and from David to the exile to Babylon fourteen generations; and from the exile to Babylon to the 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 happened like this. His mother Mary had been engaged to Joseph, and before they came together, she was found to be with child from the Holy Spirit.
19 and her husband Joseph being righteous, and not willing to make her an example, resolved to send her away privately.
And Joseph, her husband, being a righteous man, and not willing to make her a public example, intended to put her away secretly.
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,
But when he thought about these things, look, an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream, saying, "Joseph, son of David, do not be afraid to take to yourself Mary, your wife, for that which is conceived in her is of 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 will bring forth a son, and you are to name him Jesus, for he will 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 has happened, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the Lord through 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.”
"Look, the virgin will conceive and bear a son, and they will call his name Immanuel;" which is translated, "God with us."
24 And Joseph, having risen from sleep, did as the messenger of the LORD directed him, and received his wife,
And Joseph arose from his sleep, and did as the angel of the Lord commanded him, and took his wife to himself;
25 and did not know her until she brought forth her Son—the firstborn, and he called His Name Jesus.
and had no marital relations with her until she had brought forth a son; and he named him Jesus.
