  • 5. and Salmon begat Boaz of Rahab, and Boaz begat Obed of Ruth, and Obed begat Jesse,
  • 6. and Jesse begat David the king. And David the king begat Solomon, of her `who had been' Uriah's,
  • 7. and Solomon begat Rehoboam, and Rehoboam begat Abijah, and Abijah begat Asa,

  • 10. and Hezekiah begat Manasseh, and Manasseh begat Amon, and Amon begat Josiah,
  • 11. and Josiah begat Jeconiah and his brethren, at the Babylonian removal.
  • 12. And after the Babylonian removal, Jeconiah begat Shealtiel, and Shealtiel begat Zerubbabel,

  • 16. and Jacob begat Joseph, the husband of Mary, of whom was begotten Jesus, who is named Christ.
  • 17. All the generations, therefore, from Abraham unto David `are' fourteen generations, and from David unto the Babylonian removal fourteen generations, and from the Babylonian removal unto 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 Joseph her husband being righteous, and not willing to make her an example, did wish privately to send her away.
  • 20. And on his thinking of these things, lo, a messenger of the Lord in a dream appeared to him, saying, `Joseph, son of David, thou mayest not fear to receive Mary thy wife, for that which in her was begotten `is' of the Holy Spirit,
  • 21. and she shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt call his name Jesus, for he shall save his people from their sins.'
  • 22. And all this hath come to pass, that it may be fulfilled that was spoken by the Lord through the prophet, saying,
  • 23. `Lo, the virgin shall conceive, and she shall bring forth a son, and they shall call his name Emmanuel,' which is, being interpreted `With us `he is' God.'
  • 24. And Joseph, having risen from the sleep, did as the messenger of the Lord directed him, and received his wife,
  • 25. and did not know her till she brought forth her son -- the first-born, and he called his name Jesus.
