THE GENEALOGY OF JESUS CHRIST, ACCORDING TO THE BOOK OF MATHEW, NEW INTERNATIONAL TRANSLATION VERSION
â€â€Matthew‬ â€1:1â€-‬25‬ â€NIV‬‬
[1] This is the genealogy of Jesus the Messiah the son of David, the son of Abraham:
[2] Abraham was the father of Isaac, Isaac the father of Jacob, Jacob the father of Judah and his brothers,
[3] Judah the father of Perez and Zerah, whose mother was Tamar, Perez the father of Hezron, Hezron the father of Ram,
[4] Ram the father of Amminadab, Amminadab the father of Nahshon, Nahshon the father of Salmon,
[5] Salmon the father of Boaz, whose mother was Rahab, Boaz the father of Obed, whose mother was Ruth, Obed the father of Jesse,
[6] and Jesse the father of King David. David was the father of Solomon, whose mother had been Uriah’s wife,
[7] Solomon the father of Rehoboam, Rehoboam the father of Abijah, Abijah the father of Asa,
[8] Asa the father of Jehoshaphat, Jehoshaphat the father of Jehoram, Jehoram the father of Uzziah,
[9] Uzziah the father of Jotham, Jotham the father of Ahaz, Ahaz the father of Hezekiah,
[10] Hezekiah the father of Manasseh, Manasseh the father of Amon, Amon the father of Josiah,
[11] and Josiah the father of Jeconiah and his brothers at the time of the exile to Babylon.
[12] After the exile to Babylon: Jeconiah was the father of Shealtiel, Shealtiel the father of Zerubbabel,
[13] Zerubbabel the father of Abihud, Abihud the father of Eliakim, Eliakim the father of Azor,
[14] Azor the father of Zadok, Zadok the father of Akim, Akim the father of Elihud,
[15] Elihud the father of Eleazar, Eleazar the father of Matthan, Matthan the father of Jacob,
[16] and Jacob the father of Joseph, the husband of Mary, and Mary was the mother of Jesus who is called the Messiah.
[17] Thus there were fourteen generations in all from Abraham to David, fourteen from David to the exile to Babylon, and fourteen from the exile to the Messiah.
[18] This is how the birth of Jesus the Messiah came about: His mother Mary was pledged to be married to Joseph, but before they came together, she was found to be pregnant through the Holy Spirit.
[19] Because Joseph her husband was faithful to the law, and yet did not want to expose her to public disgrace, he had in mind to divorce her quietly.
[20] But after he had considered this, an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream and said, “Joseph son of David, do not be afraid to take Mary home as your wife, because what is conceived in her is from the Holy Spirit.
[21] She will give birth to a son, and you are to give him the name Jesus, because he will save his people from their sins.â€
[22] All this took place to fulfill what the Lord had said through the prophet:
[23] “The virgin will conceive and give birth to a son, and they will call him Immanuel†(which means “God with usâ€).
[24] When Joseph woke up, he did what the angel of the Lord had commanded him and took Mary home as his wife.
[25] But he did not consummate their marriage until she gave birth to a son. And he gave him the name Jesus.
