Matthew 1:1-25 LSV
[1] [The] scroll of the birth of Jesus Christ, Son of David, Son of Abraham. [2] Abraham begot Isaac, and Isaac begot Jacob, and Jacob begot Judah and his brothers, [3] and Judah begot Perez and Zerah of Tamar, and Perez begot Hezron, and Hezron begot Ram, [4] and Ram begot Amminadab, and Amminadab begot Nahshon, and Nahshon begot Salmon, [5] and Salmon begot Boaz of Rahab, and Boaz begot Obed of Ruth, and Obed begot Jesse, [6] and Jesse begot David the king. And David the king begot Solomon, of her [who had been] Uriah’s, [7] and Solomon begot Rehoboam, and Rehoboam begot Abijah, and Abijah begot Asa, [8] and Asa begot Jehoshaphat, and Jehoshaphat begot Joram, and Joram begot Uzziah, [9] and Uzziah begot Jotham, and Jotham begot Ahaz, and Ahaz begot Hezekiah, [10] and Hezekiah begot Manasseh, and Manasseh begot Amon, and Amon begot Josiah, [11] and Josiah begot Jeconiah and his brothers, at the Babylonian removal. [12] And after the Babylonian removal, Jeconiah begot Shealtiel, and Shealtiel begot Zerubbabel, [13] and Zerubbabel begot Abiud, and Abiud begot Eliakim, and Eliakim begot Azor, [14] and Azor begot Sadok, and Sadok begot Achim, and Achim begot Eliud, [15] and Eliud begot Eleazar, and Eleazar begot Matthan, and Matthan begot Jacob, [16] and Jacob begot Joseph, the husband of Mary, of whom was begotten Jesus, who is named 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. [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, [19] and her husband Joseph being righteous, and not willing to make her an example, resolved to send her away 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, [21] and she will bring forth a Son, and you will call His Name 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, [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.” [24] And Joseph, having risen from sleep, did as the messenger of the LORD directed him, and received his wife, [25] and did not know her until she brought forth her Son—the firstborn, and he called His Name Jesus.
