NASV Matthew 1 Chapter
1:1
The record of the genealogy of Jesus the Messiah, the son of David, the son of Abraham:
1:2
Abraham was the father of Isaac, Isaac the father of Jacob, and Jacob the father of Judah and his brothers.
1:3
Judah was the father of Perez and Zerah by Tamar, Perez was the father of Hezron, and Hezron the father of Ram.
1:4
Ram was the father of Amminadab, Amminadab the father of Nahshon, and Nahshon the father of Salmon.
1:5
Salmon was the father of Boaz by Rahab, Boaz was the father of Obed by Ruth, and Obed the father of Jesse.
1:6
Jesse was the father of David the king. David was the father of Solomon by Bathsheba who had been the wife of Uriah.
1:7
Solomon was the father of Rehoboam, Rehoboam the father of Abijah, and Abijah the father of Asa.
1:8
Asa was the father of Jehoshaphat, Jehoshaphat the father of Joram, and Joram the father of Uzziah.
1:9
Uzziah was the father of Jotham, Jotham the father of Ahaz, and Ahaz the father of Hezekiah.
1:10
Hezekiah was the father of Manasseh, Manasseh the father of Amon, and Amon the father of Josiah.
1:11
Josiah became the father of Jeconiah and his brothers, at the time of the deportation to Babylon.
1:12
After the deportation to Babylon: Jeconiah became the father of Shealtiel, and Shealtiel the father of Zerubbabel.
1:13
Zerubbabel was the father of Abihud, Abihud the father of Eliakim, and Eliakim the father of Azor.
1:14
Azor was the father of Zadok, Zadok the father of Achim, and Achim the father of Eliud.
1:15
Eliud was the father of Eleazar, Eleazar the father of Matthan, and Matthan the father of Jacob.
1:16
Jacob was the father of Joseph the husband of Mary, by whom Jesus was born, who is called the Messiah.
1:17
So all the generations from Abraham to David are fourteen generations; from David to the deportation to Babylon, fourteen generations; and from the deportation to Babylon to the Messiah, fourteen generations.
1:18
Now the birth of Jesus Christ was as follows: when His mother Mary had been betrothed to Joseph, before they came together she was found to be with child by the Holy Spirit.
1:19
And Joseph her husband, being a righteous man and not wanting to disgrace her, planned to send her away secretly.
1:20
But when he had considered this, behold, an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream, saying, "Joseph, son of David, do not be afraid to take Mary as your wife; for the Child who has been conceived in her is of the Holy Spirit.
1:21
"She will bear a Son; and you shall call His name Jesus, for He will save His people from their sins."
1:22
Now all this took place to fulfill what was spoken by the Lord through the prophet:
1:23
"Behold, the virgin shall be with child and shall bear a Son, and they shall call His name Immanuel," which translated means, "God with us."
1:24
And Joseph awoke from his sleep and did as the angel of the Lord commanded him, and took Mary as his wife,
1:25
but kept her a virgin until she gave birth to a Son; and he called His name Jesus.
