6 and Jesse the father of David the king. And David was the father of Solomon by her who had been the wife of Uriah;
And Jesse begot David the king. And David the king begot Solomon, of her that had been the wife of Urias.
7 and Solomon was the father of Rehoboam, and Rehoboam the father of Abijah, and Abijah the father of Asa;

And Ozias begot Joatham. And Joatham begot Achaz. And Achaz begot Ezechias.
10 and Hezekiah the father of Manasseh, and Manasseh the father of Amon, and Amon the father of Josiah,

11 and Josiah the father of Jechoniah and his brothers, at the time of the exile to Babylon.
And Josias begot Jechonias and his brethren in the transmigration of Babylon.
12 And after the exile to Babylon, Jechoniah was the father of Shealtiel, and Shealtiel the father of Zerubbabel,
And after the transmigration of Babylon, Jechonias begot Salathiel. And Salathiel begot Zorobabel.

16 and Jacob the father of Joseph, the husband of Mary, from whom was born Jesus, who is called the Messiah.
And Jacob begot Joseph the husband of Mary, of whom was born Jesus, who is called Christ.
17 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 Messiah, fourteen generations.
So all the generations, from Abraham to David, are fourteen generations. And from David to the transmigration of Babylon, are fourteen generations: and from the transmigration of Babylon to Christ are fourteen generations.
18 Now the birth of Jesus (the) Messiah 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.
Now the generation of Christ was in this wise. When as his mother Mary was espoused to Joseph, before they came together, she was found with child, of the Holy Ghost.
19 And Joseph, her husband, being a righteous man, and not willing to make her a public example, intended to put her away secretly.
Whereupon Joseph her husband, being a just man, and not willing publicly to expose her, was minded to put her away privately.
20 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.
But while he thought on these things, behold the angel of the Lord appeared to him in his sleep, saying: Joseph, son of David, fear not to take unto thee Mary thy wife, for that which is conceived in her, is of the Holy Ghost.
21 And she will bring forth a son, and you are to name him 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 Now all this has happened, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the Lord through the prophet, saying,
Now all this was done that it might be fulfilled which the Lord spoke by the prophet, saying:
23 "Look, the virgin will conceive and bear a son, and they will call his name Immanuel;" which is translated, "God with us."
Behold a virgin shall be with child, and bring forth a son, and they shall call his name Emmanuel, which being interpreted is, God with us.
24 And Joseph arose from his sleep, and did as the angel of the Lord commanded him, and took his wife to himself;
And Joseph rising up from sleep, did as the angel of the Lord had commanded him, and took unto him his wife.
25 and had no marital relations with her until she had brought forth a son; and he named him Jesus.
And he knew her not till she brought forth her firstborn son: and he called his name JESUS.
