Chapter 1
| 1 | The book of the generation of Jesus Christ, the son of David, the son of Abraham. |
| 2 | Abraham begat Isaac; and Isaac begat Jacob; and Jacob begat Judas and his brethren; |
| 3 | And Judas begat Phares and Zara of Thamar; and Phares begat Esrom; and Esrom begat Aram; |
| 4 | And Aram begat Aminadab; and Aminadab begat Naasson; and Naasson begat Salmon; |
| 5 | And Salmon begat Booz of Rachab; and Booz begat Obed of Ruth; and Obed begat Jesse; |
| 6 | And Jesse begat David the king; and David the king begat Solomon of her that had been the wife of Urias; |
| 7 | And Solomon begat Roboam; and Roboam begat Abia; and Abia begat Asa; |
| 8 | And Asa begat Josaphat; and Josaphat begat Joram; and Joram begat Ozias; |
| 9 | And Ozias begat Joatham; and Joatham begat Achaz; and Achaz begat Ezekias; |
| 10 | And Ezekias begat Manasses; and Manasses begat Amon; and Amon begat Josias; |
| 11 | And Josias begat Jechonias and his brethren, about the time they were carried away to Babylon: |
| 12 | And after they were brought to Babylon, Jechonias begat Salathiel; and Salathiel begat Zorobabel; |
| 13 | And Zorobabel begat Abiud; and Abiud begat Eliakim; and Eliakim begat Azor; |
| 14 | And Azor begat Sadoc; and Sadoc begat Achim; and Achim begat Eliud; |
| 15 | And Eliud begat Eleazar; and Eleazar begat Matthan; and Matthan begat Jacob; |
| 16 | And Jacob begat Joseph the husband of Mary, of whom was born Jesus, who is called Christ. |
| 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 | 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 | 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 | 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 | And she shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt call his name JESUS: for he shall save his people from their sins. |
| 22 | Now all this was done, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken of the Lord by the prophet, saying, |
| 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 | Then Joseph being raised from sleep did as the angel of the Lord had bidden him, and took unto him his wife: |
| 25 | And knew her not till she had brought forth her firstborn son: and he called his name JESUS. |
