¹The book of the genealogy of Jesus the Anointed One, son of David, son of Abraham.

²Abraham begat Isaac, and Isaac begat Jacob, and Jacob begat Judah and his brothers.

³And Judah begat Perez and Zerah out of Tamar, and Perez begat Hezron, and Hezron begat Ram.

⁴And Ram begat Amminadab, and Amminadab begat Nahshon, and Nahshon begat Salmon.

⁵And Salmon begat Boaz out of Rahab, and Boaz begat Obed out of Ruth, and Obed begat Jesse.

⁶And Jesse begat David the king, and David the king begat Solomon out of the wife of Uriah.

⁷And Solomon begat Rehoboam, and Rehoboam begat Abijah, and Abijah begat Asaph.

⁸And Asaph begat Jehoshaphat, and Jehoshaphat begat Joram, and Joram begat Uzziah.

⁹And Uzziah begat Jotham, and Jotham begat Ahaz, and Ahaz begat Hezekiah.

¹⁰And Hezekiah begat Manasseh, and Manasseh begat Amos, and Amos begat Josiah.

¹¹And Josiah begat Jeconiah and his brothers at the time of the carrying away to Babylon.

¹²And after the carrying away to Babylon, Jeconiah begat Shealtiel, and Shealtiel begat Zerubbabel.

¹³And Zerubbabel begat Abiud, and Abiud begat Eliakim, and Eliakim begat Azor.

¹⁴And Azor begat Zadok, and Zadok begat Achim, and Achim begat Eliud.

¹⁵And Eliud begat Eleazar, and Eleazar begat Matthan, and Matthan begat Jacob.

¹⁶And Jacob begat Joseph the husband of Mary, out of whom was born Jesus, who is named the Anointed One.

¹⁷Therefore all the generations from Abraham to David were fourteen generations, and from David until the carrying away to Babylon fourteen generations, and from the carrying away to Babylon until the Anointed One fourteen generations.

¹⁸Now the origin of Jesus the Anointed One was happening thus: at the pledging of his mother Mary to Joseph, before they were to come together, she was found having pregnancy in the womb out of the Holy Spirit.

¹⁹Now Joseph her husband, being righteous and not willing to disgrace her, purposed to send her away secretly.

²⁰Now when he was pondering these things, behold, a messenger of the Lord appeared to him in a dream, saying: Joseph, son of David, do not fear to receive Mary as your wife, for that having been conceived in her is from the Spirit which is Holy.

²¹And she will bear a son, and you will call his name Jesus, for he himself will rescue his people from their sins.

²²And all this has come to pass that there may be fulfilled that which was spoken by the Lord through the prophet, saying:

²³Behold, the virgin will have pregnancy in the womb and she will bear a son, and they will call his name Immanuel, which is translated: God with us.

²⁴And when Joseph had been awoken from the sleep, he did as the messenger of the Lord commanded him, and received his wife.

²⁵And he was not knowing her until she had brought forth her firstborn son, and he called his name Jesus.
