chapter 1 of 28 · 25 verses

  1. 1:1

    The book of the generation of Jesus Christ, the son of David, the son of Abraham.

  2. 1:2

    Abraham begat Isaac; and Isaac begat Jacob; and Jacob begat Judas and his brethren;

  3. 1:3

    And Judas begat Phares and Zara of Thamar; and Phares begat Esrom; and Esrom begat Aram;

  4. 1:4

    And Aram begat Aminadab; and Aminadab begat Naasson; and Naasson begat Salmon;

  5. 1:5

    And Salmon begat Booz of Rachab; and Booz begat Obed of Ruth; and Obed begat Jesse;

  6. 1:6

    And Jesse begat David the king; and David the king begat Solomon of her that had been the wife of Urias;

  7. 1:7

    And Solomon begat Roboam; and Roboam begat Abia; and Abia begat Asa;

  8. 1:8

    And Asa begat Josaphat; and Josaphat begat Joram; and Joram begat Ozias;

  9. 1:9

    And Ozias begat Joatham; and Joatham begat Achaz; and Achaz begat Ezekias;

  10. 1:10

    And Ezekias begat Manasses; and Manasses begat Amon; and Amon begat Josias;

  11. 1:11

    And Josias begat Jechonias and his brethren, about the time they were carried away to Babylon:

  12. 1:12

    And after they were brought to Babylon, Jechonias begat Salathiel; and Salathiel begat Zorobabel;

  13. 1:13

    And Zorobabel begat Abiud; and Abiud begat Eliakim; and Eliakim begat Azor;

  14. 1:14

    And Azor begat Sadoc; and Sadoc begat Achim; and Achim begat Eliud;

  15. 1:15

    And Eliud begat Eleazar; and Eleazar begat Matthan; and Matthan begat Jacob;

  16. 1:16

    And Jacob begat Joseph the husband of Mary, of whom was born Jesus, who is called Christ.

  17. 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.

  18. 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.

  19. 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.

  20. 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.

  21. 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.

  22. 1:22

    Now all this was done, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken of the Lord by the prophet, saying,

  23. 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.

  24. 1:24

    Then Joseph being raised from sleep did as the angel of the Lord had bidden him, and took unto him his wife:

  25. 1:25

    And knew her not till she had brought forth her firstborn son: and he called his name JESUS.
