Matthew 1:7-19
-
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.
