- 2 Abraham fathered[1] Isaac, and Isaac fathered Jacob, and Jacob fathered Judah and his brethren[2].
- 6 and Jesse fathered David the king, and David the king fathered Solomon by her who had been[3] the wife of Uriah.
- 11 And Josiah fathered Jechoniah and his brethren, about the time they were carried away to Babylon.
- 12 And after they were brought to Babylon, Jechoniah fathered Shealtiel, and Shealtiel fathered Zerubbabel.
- 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 until Christ are fourteen generations.
- 18 Now the birth of Jesus Christ happened this way[4]: After His mother Mary was betrothed to Joseph before they came together, she was found with child from the Holy Spirit.
- 19 Then Joseph her husband, being a just man, and not willing to make her a public example, was minded to put her away secretly.[5]
- 20 But while he thought on these things, behold, the angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream, saying, “Joseph, [6] son of David, do not be afraid to take to you Mary your wife, because that which is conceived in her is from the Holy Spirit.
- 21 And she will bear a Son, and you will call His name JESUS: because He will save His people from their sins.”
- 22 So all this was done that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the Lord through the prophet, saying:
- 23 Behold, a virgin will be with child, and will bear a Son, and they will call His name Immanuel,” which being translated[7] is, “God with us.”
- 24 Then Joseph being awoken[8] from sleep, did as the angel of the Lord had commanded[9] him, and took to him his wife,
- 25 and did not know her until she had brought forth her firstborn Son. And he called His name JESUS.
Footnotes
- 1. KJV - begat
- 2. Many modern versions say brothers. Brethren is more exact, sometimes including females (see Matthew 12:46-50)
- 3. Words in italics are placed into the text to make it easier for the reader to comprehend the exact meaning of the original text. Whilst in the original Greek language these words were not needed, to get the exact sense in English language, italicized words are sometimes needed. The Textus Receptus Version follows the original 1611 KJV as closely as possible, unless it affects the modern relevance. The KJV translators studied and mimicked the process of the New Testament writers who often quoted sections of the Old Testament Hebrew. At times there were slight additions or subtractions which were needed in the Greek to faithfully translate those quotations, although many the Old Testament quotations are not verbatim. In such places many have fallen into the error of following the Septuagint. Many times in Beza's parallel Latin Text of 1598, he includes italics to make the Greek clearer in the Latin, such as in Matthew 1:6.
- 4. KJV - was on this wise
- 5. KJV - privily
