Mt 1:1 The book of the generation of Jesus Christ, the son of David, the son
of Abraham.
Mt 1:2 Abraham begat Isaac; and Isaac begat Jacob; and Jacob begat Judas and his
brethren;
Mt 1:3 And Judas begat Phares and Zara of Thamar; and Phares begat Esrom; and
Esrom begat Aram;
Mt 1:4 And Aram begat Aminadab; and Aminadab begat Naasson; and Naasson begat
Salmon;
Mt 1:5 And Salmon begat Booz of Rachab; and Booz begat Obed of Ruth; and Obed
begat Jesse;
Mt 1:6 And Jesse begat David the king; and David the king begat Solomon of her
that had been the wife of Urias;
Mt 1:7 And Solomon begat Roboam; and Roboam begat Abia; and Abia begat Asa;
Mt 1:8 And Asa begat Josaphat; and Josaphat begat Joram; and Joram begat Ozias;
Mt 1:9 And Ozias begat Joatham; and Joatham begat Achaz; and Achaz begat
Ezekias;
Mt 1:10 And Ezekias begat Manasses; and Manasses begat Amon; and Amon begat
Josias;
Mt 1:11 And Josias begat Jechonias and his brethren, about the time they were
carried away to Babylon:
Mt 1:12 And after they were brought to Babylon, Jechonias begat Salathiel; and
Salathiel begat Zorobabel;
Mt 1:13 And Zorobabel begat Abiud; and Abiud begat Eliakim; and Eliakim begat
Azor;
Mt 1:14 And Azor begat Sadoc; and Sadoc begat Achim; and Achim begat Eliud;
Mt 1:15 And Eliud begat Eleazar; and Eleazar begat Matthan; and Matthan begat
Jacob;
Mt 1:16 And Jacob begat Joseph the husband of Mary, of whom was born Jesus, who
is called Christ.
Mt 1:17 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.
Mt 1:18 Now the birth of Jesus Christ was on this wise: When as his mother Mary
was espoused to Joseph, before they came together, she was found with child of
the Holy Ghost.
Mt 1:19 Then Joseph her husband, being a just man, and not willing to make her a
publick example, was minded to put her away privily.
Mt 1:20 But while he thought on these things, behold, the angel of the Lord
appeared unto him in a dream, saying, Joseph, thou son of David, fear not to
take unto thee Mary thy wife: for that which is conceived in her is of the Holy
Ghost.
Mt 1:21 And she shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt call his name JESUS: for
he shall save his people from their sins.
Mt 1:22 Now all this was done, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken of
the Lord by the prophet, saying,
Mt 1:23 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.
Mt 1:24 Then Joseph being raised from sleep did as the angel of the Lord had
bidden him, and took unto him his wife:
Mt 1:25 And knew her not till she had brought forth her firstborn son: and he
called his name JESUS.
