² Abraham begat Isaac; and Isaac begat Jacob, and Jacob begat Juda and his brethren;

³ and Juda begat Phares and Zara of Thamar; and Phares begat Esrom, and Esrom begat Aram,

⁴ and Aram begat Aminadab, and Aminadab begat Naasson, and Naasson begat Salmon,

⁵ and Salmon begat Booz of Rachab; and Booz begat Obed of Ruth; and Obed begat Jesse,

⁶ and Jesse begat David the king. And David begat Solomon, of her [that had been the wife] of Urias;

⁷ and Solomon begat Roboam, and Roboam begat Abia, and Abia begat Asa,

⁸ and Asa begat Josaphat, and Josaphat begat Joram, and Joram begat Ozias,

⁹ and Ozias begat Joatham, and Joatham begat Achaz, and Achaz begat Ezekias,

¹⁰ and Ezekias begat Manasses, and Manasses begat Amon, and Amon begat Josias,

¹¹ and Josias begat Jechonias and his brethren, at the time of the carrying away of Babylon.

¹² And after the carrying away of Babylon, Jechonias begat Salathiel, and Salathiel begat Zorobabel,

¹³ and Zorobabel begat Abiud, and Abiud begat Eliakim, and Eliakim begat Azor,

¹⁴ and Azor begat Sadoc, and Sadoc begat Achim, and Achim begat Eliud,

¹⁵ and Eliud begat Eliazar, and Eliazar begat Matthan, and Matthan begat Jacob,

¹⁷ All the generations, therefore, from Abraham to David [were] fourteen generations; and from David until the carrying away of Babylon, fourteen generations; and from the carrying away of Babylon unto the Christ, fourteen generations.

¹⁸ Now the birth of Jesus Christ was thus: His mother, Mary, that is, having been betrothed to Joseph, before they came together, she was found to be with child of [the] Holy Spirit.

¹⁹ But Joseph, her husband, being [a] righteous [man], and unwilling to expose her publicly, purposed to have put her away secretly;

²⁰ but while he pondered on these things, behold, an angel of [the] Lord appeared to him in a dream, saying, Joseph, son of David, fear not to take to [thee] Mary, thy wife, for that which is begotten in her is of [the] Holy Spirit.
