The book of the generations of Jesus Christ ,
the son of David ,
the son of Abraham .
bbe @

The son of Abraham was Isaac ;
and the son of Isaac was Jacob ;
and the sons of Jacob were Judah and his brothers ;
bbe @
Matthew:1:3 @
And the sons of Judah were Perez and Zerah by Tamar ;
and the son of Perez was Hezron ;
and the son of Hezron was Ram ;
bbe @
Matthew:1:4 @
And the son of Ram was Amminadab ;
and the son of Amminadab was Nahshon ;
and the son of Nahshon was Salmon ;
bbe @
Matthew:1:5 @
And the son of Salmon by Rahab was Boaz ;
and the son of Boaz by Ruth was Obed ;
and the son of Obed was Jesse ;
bbe @
Matthew:1:6 @
And the son of Jesse was David the king ;
and the son of David was Solomon by her who had been the wife of Uriah ;
bbe @
Matthew:1:7 @
And the son of Solomon was Rehoboam ;
and the son of Rehoboam was Abijah ;
and the son of Abijah was Asa ;
bbe @
Matthew:1:8 @
And the son of Asa was Jehoshaphat ;
and the son of Jehoshaphat was Joram ;
and the son of Joram was Uzziah ;
bbe @
Matthew:1:9 @
And the son of Uzziah was Jotham ;
and the son of Jotham was Ahaz ;
and the son of Ahaz was Hezekiah ;
bbe @

And the son of Hezekiah was Manasseh ;
and the son of Manasseh was Amon ;
and the son of Amon was Josiah ;
bbe @
Matthew:1:11 @
And the sons of Josiah were Jechoniah and his brothers ,
at the time of the taking away to Babylon .
bbe @
Matthew:1:12 @
And after the taking away to Babylon ,
Jechoniah had a son Shealtiel ;
and Shealtiel had Zerubbabel ;
bbe @

bbe @
Matthew:1:16 @
And the son of Jacob was Joseph the husband of Mary ,
who gave birth to Jesus ,
whose name is Christ .
bbe @
Matthew:1:17 @
So all the generations from Abraham to David are fourteen generations ;
and from David to the taking away to Babylon ,
fourteen generations ;
and from the taking away to Babylon to the coming of Christ ,
fourteen generations .
bbe @
Matthew:1:18 @
Now the birth of Jesus Christ was in this way :
when his mother Mary was going to be married to Joseph ,
before they came together the discovery was made that she was with child by the Holy Spirit .
bbe @
Matthew:1:19 @
And Joseph ,
her husband ,
being an upright man ,
and not desiring to make her a public example ,
had a mind to put her away privately .
bbe @
Matthew:1:20 @
But when he was giving thought to these things ,
an angel of the Lord came to him in a dream ,
saying ,
Joseph ,
son of David ,
have no fear of taking Mary as your wife ;
because that which is in her body is of the Holy Spirit .
bbe @
Matthew:1:21 @
And she will give birth to a son ;
and you will give him the name Jesus ;
for he will give his people salvation from their sins .
bbe @
Matthew:1:22 @
Now all this took place so that the word of the Lord by the prophet might come true ,
bbe @
Matthew:1:23 @
See ,
the virgin will be with child ,
and will give birth to a son ,
and they will give him the name Immanuel ,
that is ,
God with us .
bbe @
Matthew:1:24 @
And Joseph did as the angel of the Lord had said to him ,
and took her as his wife ;
bbe @
Matthew:1:25 @
And he had no connection with her till she had given birth to a son ;
and he gave him the name Jesus .
